Increased Formation of Distinct F2 Isoprostanes in Hypercholesterolemia

Background—F2 isoprostanes are stable, free radical–catalyzed products of arachidonic acid that reflect lipid peroxidation in vivo.

Methods and Results—Specific assays were developed by use of mass spectrometry for the F2 isoprostanes iPF2{alpha}-III and iPF2{alpha}-VI and arachidonic acid (AA). Urinary excretion of the 2 F2 isoprostanes was significantly increased in hypercholesterolemic patients, whereas substrate AA in urine did not differ between the groups. iPF2{alpha}-III (pmol/mmol creatinine) was elevated (P<0.0005) in homozygous familial hypercholesterolemic (HFH) patients (85±5.5; n=38) compared with age- and sex-matched normocholesterolemic control subjects (58±4.2; n=38), as were levels of iPF2{alpha}-VI (281±22 versus 175±13; P<0.0005). Serum cholesterol correlated with urinary iPF2{alpha}-III (r=0.41; P<0.02) and iPF2{alpha}-VI (r=0.39; P<0.03) in HFH patients. Urinary excretion of iPF2{alpha}-III (81±10 versus 59±4; P<0.05) and iPF2{alpha}-VI (195±18 versus 149±20; P<0.05) was also increased in moderately hypercholesterolemic subjects (n=24) compared with their controls. Urinary excretion of iPF2{alpha}-III and iPF2{alpha}-VI was correlated (r=0.57; P<0.0001; n=106). LDL iPF2{alpha}-III levels (ng/mg arachidonate) were elevated (P<0.01) in HFH patients (0.32±0.08) compared with controls (0.09±0.02). The concentrations of iPF2-III in LDL and urine were significantly correlated (r=0.42; P<0.05) in HFH patients.

Conclusions—Asymptomatic patients with moderate and severe hypercholesterolemia have evidence of oxidant stress in vivo.
