Abstract

The possible involvement of oxidative damage and antioxidant protection has been suggested in the pathogenesis of stroke which is the second-leading cause of death in Taiwan. In this study we investigated the relationship between ischemic stroke and plasma status of antioxidants and oxidative products. Plasma levels of vitamin A, alpha-tocopherol, carotenoids, selenium (Se), total SH groups (T-SH), thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) and protein carbonyl, a marker of protein damage, were determined in ischemic-stroke patients (n = 36, blood sampled within 24 hrs after the clinical event) in comparison with 21 matched controls. The cholesterol-adjusted carotenoids and vitamin E were significantly lower (P < 0.05) in the plasma of ischemic-stroke patients than those of the controls. TBARS were higher (P < 0.05) in the patients than in the controls but Se, T-SH and protein carbonyls were not significantly different between the two groups. Separation of the patients into small-artery ischemic stroke (SAIS, n = 17) and large-artery ischemic stroke (LAIS, n = 19) groups revealed that both carotenoids/cholesterol and vitamin E/cholesterol ratios were significantly lower in both LAIS and SAIS groups than the controls (n = 2...Continue Reading
