PUFAs are released from cell membranes by the action of phospholipase enzymes, such as phospholipase A2 and phospholipase C, and are then converted into various bioactive compounds by cyclooxygenase, lipoxygenase, and cytochrome P450 enzymes
If there is presence of enzymatic activity and/or spontaneous oxidation in storage, we would expect to observe lower levels of total GSH and free GSH, and elevated levels of GSSG, in the EDTA-treated sample stored at 4 o C compared to the non-deproteinized EDTA-treated plasma stored at 80 o C
Yet, this remains highly speculative
