ABSTRACT
Background Oxidative stress plays an important role in the pathophysiology of diabetes mellitus. The aim of this study was to evaluate the formation of cholesterol oxides (ChOx) as biomarkers of oxidative stress in subjects with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) and diabetes. Methods Blood plasma levels of cholesterol oxidation products were determined in the following groups type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM1), type 2 diabetes (DM2), impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), children without diabetes (C1) and adults without diabetes (C2). The serum levels of cholest-5-ene-3£/,7£/-diol (7£/-hydroxycholesterol, 7£/-OH), cholest- 5-ene-3£],7£]-diol (7£]-hydroxycholesterol, 7£]-OH), 3£]-hydroxycholest-5-7- one (7-ketocholesterol, 7-K), 5£/-cholestane-3£],5,6£]-triol (cholestanetriol), 5,6£/-epoxy-5£/-cholestan-3£/-ol (cholesterol-5£/,6£/-epoxide,), 5,6£]-epoxy- 5£]-cholestan-3£]-ol (cholesterol-5£],6£]-epoxide) and cholest-5-eno-3£],25-diol (25-hydroxycholesterol, 25-OH) (trivial name and abbreviations indicated in parentheses) were quantified by gas chromatography using flame ionization detection. Results The levels of total ChOx were elevated in the DM1 and DM2 groups compared to age-matched subjects without diabetes (p < 0.05).The concentrations of 7£]-hydroxycholesterol, cholesterol-£/-epoxide and cholesterol-£]-epoxide were higher in the blood plasma of subjects in the DM2 group than in the blood plasma of subjects in the C2 and IGT groups (p < 0.05). Treatment of type 2 diabetic patients with oral hypoglycemic drugs associated with insulin resulted in lower concentrations of nitrotyrosine in the blood plasma without significant changes in the concentrations of glucose and glycated hemoglobin. Moreover, combination with statins in both treatments decreased the concentrations of ChOx.Conclusions ChOx are suitable biomarkers of oxidative stress and may be useful in clinical studies to follow drug effects on lipid oxidative modifications in diabetic patients.
