F₄-neuroprostanes and F₂-dihomo-isoprostanes: biomarkers and bioactive oxylipins

Isoprostanes and Neuroprostanes as Biomarkers of Oxidative Stress in Neurodegenerative Diseases

Accumulating data shows that oxidative stress plays a crucial role in neurodegenerative disorders. The literature data indicate that in vivo or postmortem cerebrospinal fluid and brain tissue levels of F2-isoprostanes (F2-IsoPs) especially F4-neuroprotanes (F4-NPs) are significantly increased in some neurodegenerative diseases: multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, and ...

F2-dihomo-isoprostanes as potential early biomarkers of lipid oxidative damage in Rett syndrome.

Oxidative damage has been reported in Rett syndrome (RTT), a pervasive developmental disorder caused in up to 95% of cases by mutations in the X-linked methyl-CpG binding protein 2 gene. Herein, we have synthesized F(2)-dihomo-isoprostanes (F(2)-dihomo-IsoPs), peroxidation products from adrenic acid (22:4 n-6), a known component of myelin, and tested the potential value of F(2)-dihomo-IsoPs as ...

Snapshot situation of oxidative degradation of the nervous system, kidney, and adrenal glands biomarkers-neuroprostane and dihomo-isoprostanes-urinary biomarkers from infancy to elderly adults

We analyzed biomarkers of lipid peroxidation of the nervous system -F2-dihomo-isoprostanes, F3-neuroprostanes, and F4-neuroprostanes- in urine samples from 158 healthy volunteers ranging from 4 to 88 years old with the aim of analyzing possible associations between their excretion values and age (years). Ten biomarkers were screened in the urine samples by UHPLC-QqQ-MS/MS. Four F2-dihomo-isopro...

Isoprostanes, neuroprostanes and phytoprostanes: An overview of 25years of research in chemistry and biology.

Since the beginning of the 1990's diverse types of metabolites originating from polyunsaturated fatty acids, formed under autooxidative conditions were discovered. Known as prostaglandin isomers (or isoprostanoids) originating from arachidonic acid, neuroprostanes from docosahexaenoic acid, and phytoprostanes from α-linolenic acid proved to be prevalent in biology. The syntheses of these compou...
