Abstract
Intermittent hypoxia in sleep apnea syndrome (SAS) patients increases the oxidative stress and can cause serious cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension or atherosclerotic diseases through endothelial dysfunction. The evaluation of risk caused by oxidative stress, however, is not easy in a clinical setting. Thus, we intended to evaluate the changes in oxidative stress by SAS treatment using a simple method that can be easily used in the clinical testing. We enrolled 42 consecutive newly diagnosed severe SAS patients (30 men). Reactive oxygen species metabolites (d-ROMs) for oxidative stress and biological antioxidant (BAP) in blood samples were estimated using FREE Carrio Duo® before and 3 months after continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) treatment. SAS parameters were obtained by polysomnography before CPAP and endothelial function was measured twice as well. The body mass index and apnea hypopnea index (AHI) were 29.1 ± 5.3 and 57.9 ± 19.7/h. The d-ROMs and BAP were 317.4 ± 71.8 CARR U and 2121.2 ± 299.6 μmol/L. Although no significant correlation was found between hypoxia parameters and d-ROMs or BAP before CPAP treatment, we found a significant negative correlation between basal AHI or basal oxygen desaturation index representing intermittent hypoxia and the change in d-ROMs (r = - 0.31, p = 0.046/r = - 0.33, p = 0.03) and between the change in SpO2 < 90% duration (min) representing continuous hypoxia and the change in BAP (r = - 0.35, p = 0.03) after CPAP treatment. The changes in d-ROM and BAP might reflect the different kind of reduction of oxidative stress by CPAP treatment and, thus, can be used as handy indicators of the treatment effect.

Abstract
Significance: Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ACVDs) continue to be a primary cause of mortality worldwide in adults aged 35-70 years, occurring more often in countries with lower economic development, and they constitute an ever-growing global burden that has a considerable socioeconomic impact on society. The ACVDs encompass diverse pathologies such as coronary artery disease and heart failure (HF), among others. Recent Advances: It is known that oxidative stress plays a relevant role in ACVDs and some of its effects are mediated by lipid oxidation. In particular, lipid peroxidation (LPO) is a process under which oxidants such as reactive oxygen species attack unsaturated lipids, generating a wide array of oxidation products. These molecules can interact with circulating lipoproteins, to diffuse inside the cell and even to cross biological membranes, modifying target nucleophilic sites within biomolecules such as DNA, lipids, and proteins, and resulting in a plethora of biological effects. Critical Issues: This review summarizes the evidence of the effect of LPO in the development and progression of atherosclerosis-based diseases, HF, and other cardiovascular diseases, highlighting the role of protein adduct formation. Moreover, potential therapeutic strategies targeted at lipoxidation in ACVDs are also discussed. Future Directions: The identification of valid biomarkers for the detection of lipoxidation products and adducts may provide insights into the improvement of the cardiovascular risk stratification of patients and the development of therapeutic strategies against the oxidative effects that can then be applied within a clinical setting.

Abstract
Cardiac dysfunction in T2D is associated with excessive FA uptake, oxidation, and generation of toxic lipid species by the heart. It is not known whether decreasing lipid delivery to the heart can effect improvement in cardiac function in humans with T2D. Thus, our objective was to test the hypothesis that lowering lipid delivery to the heart would result in evidence of decreased "lipotoxicity," improved cardiac function, and salutary effects on plasma biomarkers of cardiovascular risk. Thus, we performed a double-blind randomized placebo-controlled parallel design study of the effects of 12 weeks of fenofibrate-induced lipid lowering on cardiac function, inflammation, and oxidation biomarkers, and on the ratio of two plasma ceramides, Cer d18:1 (4E) (1OH, 3OH)/24:0 and Cer d18:1 (4E) (1OH, 3OH)/16:0 (i.e., "C24:0/C16:0"), which is associated with decreased risk of cardiac dysfunction and heart failure. Fenofibrate lowered plasma TG and cholesterol but did not improve heart systolic or diastolic function. Fenofibrate treatment lowered the plasma C24:0/C16:0 ceramide ratio and minimally altered oxidative stress markers but did not alter measures of inflammation. Overall, plasma TG lowering correlated with improvement of cardiac relaxation (diastolic function) as measured by tissue Doppler-derived parameter e'. Moreover, lowering the plasma C24:0/C16:0 ceramide ratio was correlated with worse diastolic function. These findings indicate that fenofibrate treatment per se is not sufficient to effect changes in cardiac function; however, decreases in plasma TG may be linked to improved diastolic function. In contrast, decreases in plasma C24:0/C16:0 are linked with worsening cardiac function.

Abstract
Abstract
Oxidative stress may cause a wide variety of free radical reactions to produce deleterious modifications in membranes, proteins, enzymes, and DNA. Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) generated by myeloperoxidase (MPO) can induce lipid peroxidation and also play an important role in the generation of reactive chlorinating and brominating species. As the universal biomarkers, chemical, and immunochemical approach on oxidatively modified and halogenated tyrosines has been carried out. As amido-type adduct biomarkers, chemical, and immunochemical evaluation of hexanoyl- and propanoyl-lysines, hexanoyl- and propanoyl-dopamines and phospholipids were prepared and developed for application of evaluation of novel antioxidative functional food factors. We have also involved in application of oxidatively modified DNAs such as 8-hydroxy- and 8-halogenated deoxyguanosines as the useful biomarkers for age-related diseases using both in vitro and in vivo systems. Application of these oxidative stress biomarkers for novel type of functional food development and recent approach for development of novel evaluation systems are also discussed.

Abstract
Pregnancy is a physiological state accompanied by excessive levels of oxidative stress (OS), due to the increased demand and utilisation of oxygen. There is increasing evidence that maternally augmented OS exerts an adverse effect on pregnancy outcome. The aim of the present prospective study was to determine the association between the urinary concentration of relatively novel OS markers measured in the second trimester of pregnancy and the infant characteristics at birth. The maternal levels of urinary hexanoyl-lysine (HEL), propanoyl-lysine (PRL), dityrosine (DiY) and 3-nitrotyrosine (NY) were evaluated in generally healthy pregnant subjects to determine their association with birth weight, gestation at delivery and Apgar score. The observed levels of the markers were in agreement with those measured in healthy non-pregnant subjects in a previous study. A positive correlation was detected between HEL and PRL, as well as between HEL and DiY. Although the absence of a correlation between NY and the other markers has been previously noted in a non-pregnant population, a positive correlation in the pair PRL-NY (r=0.367; P<0.001) was observed in the present study. Maternal cigarette smoking was associated with increased urinary PRL levels (P=0.034). The most notable observation in the present study was that high levels of PRL and NY were associated with low Apgar scores at 1 and 5 min after birth (OR, 1.098 and 2.084 for PRL and NY, respectively; P<0.05). However, poor predictive accuracy was shown. For NY, the following results were obtained: Area under the curve (AUC), 0.818; sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 57%; positive predictive value (PPV), 11.54%; and negative predictive value (NPV), 100%. For PLR the values were as follows: AUC, 0.802; sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 62.6%; PPV, 13.05%; and NPV, 100%. DiY was negatively associated with preterm birth risk (OR=0.703; P=0.028). In conclusion, the results of the present study indicated the presence of OS in the second trimester of pregnancy, which was detected with damage to lipids and proteins and associated with an adverse Apgar score; however, the selected urinary markers exhibited poor positive predictive efficacy.

Abstract
1-Bromopropane (1-BP) is used as a substitute for ozone-depleting solvents (ODS) in industrial applications. 1-BP could display central nervous system (CNS) neurotoxicity manifested by cognitive dysfunction. Neuroglobin (Ngb) is an endogenous neuroprotectant and is predominantly expressed in the nervous system. The present study aimed to investigate Ngb involvement in CNS neurotoxicity induced by 1-BP in rats. Male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=14) and treated with 0, 100, 200, 400 and 800 mg/kg bw 1-BP, respectively, by gavage for consecutive 12 days. Rats displayed cognitive dysfunction dose-dependently through Morris water maze (MWM) test. Significant neuron loss in layer 5 of the prelimbic cortex (PL) was observed. Moreover, 1-BP decreased Ngb protein level in cerebral cortex and Ngb decrease was significantly positively correlated with cognitive dysfunction. Glutathione (GSH) content, GSH/oxidized glutathione (GSSG) ratio and glutamate cysteine ligase (GCL) activity decreased in cerebral cortex, coupled with the increase in GSSG content. GSH and GSH/GSSG ratio decrease were significantly positively correlated with cortical Ngb decrease. Additionally, levels of N-epsilon-hexanoyl-lysine (HEL) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) modified proteins in cerebral cortex of 1-BP-treated rats increased significantly. In conclusion, it was suggested that 1-BP resulted in decreased endogenous neuroprotectant Ngb in cerebral cortex, which might play an important role in CNS neurotoxicity induced by 1-BP and that 1-BP-induced oxidative stress in cerebral cortex might partly be responsible for Ngb decrease.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the pestilent malignancies leading to cancer-related death. Discovering effective biomarkers for HCC diagnosis is an urgent demand. To identify potential metabolite biomarkers, we developed a urinary pseudotargeted method based on liquid chromatography-hybrid triple quadrupole linear ion trap mass spectrometry (LC-QTRAP MS). Compared with nontargeted method, the pseudotargeted method can achieve better data quality, which benefits differential metabolites discovery. The established method was applied to cirrhosis (CIR) and HCC investigation. It was found that urinary nucleosides, bile acids, citric acid, and several amino acids were significantly changed in liver disease groups compared with the controls, featuring the dysregulation of purine metabolism, energy metabolism, and amino metabolism in liver diseases. Furthermore, some metabolites such as cyclic adenosine monophosphate, glutamine, and short- and medium-chain acylcarnitines were the differential metabolites of HCC and CIR. On the basis of binary logistic regression, butyrylcarnitine (carnitine C4:0) and hydantoin-5-propionic acid were defined as combinational markers to distinguish HCC from CIR. The area under curve was 0.786 and 0.773 for discovery stage and validation stage samples, respectively. These data show that the established pseudotargeted method is a complementary one of targeted and nontargeted methods for metabolomics study.

Abstract
The pathophysiology of numerous human disorders, such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, obesity and Alzheimer's disease, is accompanied by increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS can oxidatively damage nearly all biomolecules, including lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. In particular, (poly)unsaturated fatty acids within the phospholipid (PL) structure are easily oxidized by ROS to lipid peroxidation products (LPP) carrying reactive carbonyl groups. Carbonylated LPP are characterized by high in vivo toxicity due to their reactivity with nucleophilic substrates (Lys-, Cys-and His-residues in proteins or amino groups of phosphatidylethanolamines [PE]). Adducts of unsaturated LPP with PE amino groups have been reported before, whereas less is known about the reactivity of saturated alkanals - which are significantly increased in vivo under oxidative stress conditions - towards nucleophilic groups of PLs. Here, we present a study of new alkanal-dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylethanolamine (DPPE) adducts by MS-based approaches, using consecutive fragmentation (MS(n)) and multiple reaction monitoring techniques. At least eight different DPPE-hexanal adducts were identified, including Schiff base and amide adducts, six of which have not been reported before. The structures of these new compounds were determined by their fragmentation patterns using MS(n) experiments. The new PE-hexanal adducts contained dimeric and trimeric hexanal conjugates, including cyclic adducts. A new pyridine ring containing adduct of DPPE and hexanal was purified by HPLC, and its biological effects were investigated. Incubation of peripheral blood mononuclear cells and monocytes with modified DPPE did not result in increased production of TNF-α as one selected inflammation marker. However, incorporation of modified DPPE into 1,2-dipalmitoleoyl-sn-phosphatidylethanolamine multilamellar vesicles resulted in a negative shift of the transition temperature, indicating a possible role of alkanal-derived modifications in changes of membrane structure.

Abstract
Published evidences indicate that reactive oxygen species (ROS) can induce lipid peroxidation, which plays important role in the pathophysiology of numerous diseases including atherosclerosis, diabetes, cancer and aging process. Monitoring of oxidative modification or oxidative damages of biomolecules may therefore be essential for the understanding of aging, and age-related diseases. N-epsilon-Hexanoyl-lysine (HEL) is a novel lipid peroxidation biomarker which is derived from the oxidation of omega-6 unsaturated fatty acid. In this chapter, development of HEL ELISA and its applications are reported. Assay range of HEL ELISA was 2-700 nmol/L, and showed good linearity and reproducibility. Accuracy of this assay was validated by recovery test and absorption test. HEL concentration in human urine was 22.9 ± 15.4 nmol/L and it was suggested that HEL exists as low molecular substances, in a free or in the peptide-attached form. In contrast with the urine sample, serum HEL was suggested to exist in the protein-attached form, and hydrolysis by protease might be essential for the accurate measurement of HEL in protein containing samples such as serum and cultured cells. By sample pretreatment with proteases, HEL was successfully detected in oxidized LDL, oxidized serum, and rat serum. In conclusion, HEL ELISA can be applied to measure urine, serum, and other biological samples independent of the animal species, and may be useful for the assessment of omega-6 PUFA oxidation in the living bodies.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation is an important biological reaction. In particular, polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) can be oxidized easily. Peroxidized lipids often react with other amines accompanied by the formation of various covalent adducts. Novel amide-type lipid-lysine adducts have been identified from an in vitro reaction mixture of lipid hydroperoxide with a protein, biological tissues exposed to conditions of oxidative stress and human urine from a healthy person. In this chapter, the current knowledge of amide type adducts is reviewed with a focus on the evaluation of functional foods and diseases with a history of discovery of hexanoyl-lysine (HEL). Although there is extensive research on HEL and other amide-type adducts, the mechanism of generation of the amide bond remains unclear. We have found that the decomposed aldehyde plus peroxide combined with a lysine moiety does not fully explain the formation of the amide-type lipid-lysine adduct that is generated by lipid hydroperoxide. Singlet oxygen or an excited state of the ketone generated from the lipid hydroperoxide may also contribute to the formation of the amide linkage. The amide-adducts may prove useful not only for the detection of oxidative stress induced by disease but also for the estimation of damage caused by an excess intake of PUFA.

Abstract
Oxygen free radicals in excessively high amounts are all very reactive chemically and can impose a detrimental influence on living organisms by provoking "oxidative stress" that can damage major cellular constituents. The latter includes the cell membrane, cytoplasmic proteins, and nuclear DNA. Conversely, nitric oxide (NO), superoxide anion, and related reactive oxygen species (ROS) when present in low amounts play an important role as regulatory mediators in signaling processes, through which, paradoxically, many ROS-mediated responses can protect the cells against oxidative stress by induction of "redox homeostasis." Therefore, diseases associated with free radical overproduction are provoked by "blazed ROS productions" far beyond the host's capacity to quench. Free radicals have been implicated in the pathogenesis of diverse gastrointestinal (GI) diseases including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), gastritis, enteritis, colitis and associated cancers as well as pancreatitis and liver cirrhosis. This article provides an overview of the role of oxidative stress in inflammation-based GI tract diseases, including reflux esophagitis, Helicobacter pylori-associated gastritis, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-induced enteritis, ulcerative colitis, and associated colorectal cancer. The challenging issue that ROS can contribute to diverse gastrointestinal dysfunction, or manifest dual roles in cancer promotion or cancer suppression will also be discussed for the opportunity to enhance understanding of inflammation-based GI diseases.

Abstract
Oxidative stress and resulting lipid peroxidation is involved in various and numerous pathological states including inflammation, atherosclerosis, neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. This review is focused on recent advances concerning the formation, metabolism and reactivity towards macromolecules of lipid peroxidation breakdown products, some of which being considered as 'second messengers' of oxidative stress. This review relates also new advances regarding apoptosis induction, survival/proliferation processes and autophagy regulated by 4-hydroxynonenal, a major product of omega-6 fatty acid peroxidation, in relationship with detoxication mechanisms. The use of these lipid peroxidation products as oxidative stress/lipid peroxidation biomarkers is also addressed.

Abstract
Research into lipid peroxidation-induced protein modification has been ongoing for many years. Recent studies on lipo-oxidation shows the occurrence of another type of protein modification, amide-type adduct formation by lipid hydroperoxide, as well as classical aldehyde-derived protein modifications. The amide-type modifications can be either classified as alkylamide and carboxyalkylamide according to the formed structures. As an alkylamide-type adduct, Nepsilon-(hexanoyl)lysine can be formed by the reaction of peroxidized n-6 fatty acid with lysine. Nepsilon-(propanoyl)lysine is considered to be generated from oxidation of n-3 fatty acid with lysine. The generation pattern of both might be useful for classification of which fatty acids are more involved in oxidation in vivo. Since the alkylamide type-adducts are relatively stable and detectable from biological specimens like urine, these adducts, especially Nepsilon-(hexanoyl)lysine, are used as reliable markers for not only oxidative stress evaluation but also development of functional food.

Abstract
Background The intestinal epithelium is a barrier that composes one of the most immunologically active surfaces of the body due to constant exposure to microorganisms as well as an infinite diversity of food antigens. Disruption of intestinal barrier function and aberrant mucosal immune activation have been implicated in a variety of diseases within and outside of the gastrointestinal tract. With this model in mind, recent studies have shown a link between diet, composition of intestinal microbiota, and type 1 diabetes pathogenesis. In the BioBreeding rat model of type 1 diabetes, comparison of the intestinal microbial composition of diabetes prone and diabetes resistant animals found Lactobacillus species were negatively correlated with type 1 diabetes development. Two species, Lactobacillus johnsonii and L. reuteri, were isolated from diabetes resistant rats. In this study diabetes prone rats were administered pure cultures of L. johnsonii or L. reuteri isolated from diabetes resistant rats to determine the effect on type 1 diabetes development. Methodology/Principal Findings Results Rats administered L. johnsonii, but not L. reuteri, post-weaning developed type 1 diabetes at a protracted rate. Analysis of the intestinal ileum showed administration of L. johnsonii induced changes in the native microbiota, host mucosal proteins, and host oxidative stress response. A decreased oxidative intestinal environment was evidenced by decreased expression of several oxidative response proteins in the intestinal mucosa (Gpx1, GR, Cat). In L. johnsonii fed animals low levels of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IFNγ were correlated with low levels of iNOS and high levels of Cox2. The administration of L. johnsonii also resulted in higher levels of the tight junction protein claudin. Conclusions It was determined that the administration of L. johnsonii isolated from BioBreeding diabetes resistant rats delays or inhibits the onset of type 1 diabetes in BioBreeding diabetes prone rats. Taken collectively, these data suggest that the gut and the gut microbiota are potential agents of influence in type 1 diabetes development. These data also support therapeutic efforts that seek to modify gut microbiota as a means to modulate development of this disorder.

Abstract
Lipid peroxidation products have a high reactivity against the primary amino groups of biomolecules such as aminophospholipids, proteins, and DNA. Until now, many papers have reported about the modification of biomolecules derived from lipid peroxides. Our group has also reported that aminophospholipids, such as phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), can be modified by lipid peroxidation including 13-hydroperoxyoctadecadienoic acid (13-HPODE). The aim of this study was to examine the oxidative stress in vivo by detecting the formation of N-(hexanoyl)phosphatidylethanolamine (HEPE) and N-(hexanoyl)phosphatidylserine (HEPS), a novel hexanoyl adduct, using a liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) and a monoclonal antibody. Consequently, we observed that the formation of HEPE and HEPS occurred in the red blood cell (RBC) ghosts modified by 13-HPODE and the oxidative stress model induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)) using LC/MS/MS monitoring hexanoyl ethanolamine (HEEA), a head group of HEPE, and hexanoyl serine (HESE) as a part of HEPS. Furthermore, we obtained a novel type of monoclonal antibody against HEPE. This antibody could recognize HEPE in the liver of rats with oxidative stress in vivo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It is well known that oxidative stress is induced by metabolic syndrome (MetS), leading to cardiovascular diseases. On the other hand, obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) is frequently complicated with MetS, and OSAS is also considered to induce oxidative stress. Thus, we examined the plasma and urine markers of oxidative stress and antioxidant status in patients with OSAS with or without MetS. METHODS Sixty-nine Japanese men suspected of having OSAS were recruited. We divided all patients into 3 groups: nonobese patients, obese patients without MetS, and patients with MetS. Oxidative stress markers, plasma and urine 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and plasma N epsilon-(hexanoyl) lysine (HEL), and an antioxidant status marker, plasma total antioxidant status, were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS The plasma HEL level was significantly increased in patients with MetS, whereas neither plasma and urine 8-OHdG levels nor plasma total antioxidant status level was different in patients with MetS. Furthermore, the plasma HEL level was significantly and positively correlated with fasting plasma glucose, serum insulin, and homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance index in all subjects. CONCLUSIONS The oxidative stress is strongly associated with the presence of MetS but not related to the presence or severity of OSAS. Furthermore, we demonstrated that the plasma concentration of HEL is a more sensitive biomarker of oxidative stress in patients with MetS than the plasma and urine levels of 8-OHdG.

Abstract
Cancer and degenerative diseases are major causes of morbidity and death, derived from the permanent modification of key biopolymers such as DNA and regulatory proteins by usually smaller, reactive molecules, present in the environment or generated from endogenous and xenobiotic components by the body's own biochemical mechanisms (molecular adducts). In particular, protein adducts with organic electrophiles have been studied for more than 30 [see, e.g., Calleman et al., 1978] years essentially for three purposes: (a) as passive monitors of the mean level of individual exposure to specific chemicals, either endogenously present in the human body or to which the subject is exposed through food or environmental contamination; (b) as quantitative indicators of the mean extent of the individual metabolic processing which converts a non-reactive chemical substance into its toxic products able to damage DNA (en route to cancer induction through genotoxic mechanisms) or key proteins (as in the case of several drugs, pesticides or otherwise biologically active substances); (c) to relate the extent of protein modification to that of biological function impairment (such as enzyme inhibition) finally causing the specific health damage. This review describes the role that contemporary mass spectrometry-based approaches employed in the qualitative and quantitative study of protein-electrophile adducts play in the discovery of the (bio)chemical mechanisms of toxic substances and highlights the future directions of research in this field. A particular emphasis is given to the measurement of often high levels of the protein adducts of several industrial and environmental pollutants in unexposed human populations, a phenomenon which highlights the possibility that a number of small organic molecules are generated in the human organism through minor metabolic processes, the imbalance of which may be the cause of "spontaneous" cases of cancer and of other degenerative diseases of still uncharacterized etiology. With all this in mind, it is foreseen that a holistic description of cellular functions will take advantage of new analytical methods based on time-integrated metabolomic measurements of a new biological compartment, the "adductome," aimed at better understanding integrated organism response to environmental and endogenous stressors.

Abstract
It is known that n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), such as docosahexaenoic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid, are rapidly oxidized in vitro. Nvarepsilon-(propanoyl)lysine (propionyllysine, or PRL) is formed from the reaction of the oxidized products of n-3 PUFAs and lysine. To evaluate the oxidized n-3 PUFA-derived protein modifications in vivo, we have developed detection methods using a novel monoclonal antibody against PRL as well as liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). The antibody obtained specifically recognized PRL. A strong positive staining in atherosclerotic lesions of hypercholesterolemic rabbits was observed. We have also simultaneously identified and quantified both urinary PRL and urinary Nvarepsilon-(hexanoyl)lysine, using LC/MS/MS using isotope dilution methods. The level of urinary PRL (21.6+/-10.6 micromol/mol of creatinine) significantly correlated with the other oxidative stress markers, 8-oxo-deoxyguanosine, dityrosine, and isoprostanes. The increase in the excretion of amide adducts into the urine of diabetic patients was also confirmed compared to healthy subjects. These results suggest that PRL may be good marker for n-3 PUFA-derived oxidative stress in vivo.

Abstract
An amide-type adduct, hexanoyl-lysine (HEL) is generated from the reaction between n-6 fatty acid (FA)-derived lipid peroxide and lysine. Immunochemical and chemical methods can be used to detect the formation of HEL. For example, an ELISA kit using the monoclonal antibody to HEL is now commercially available. We recently identified propanoyl-lysine (propionyl-lysine, PRL) from the reaction of an n-3 FA and a lysine residue. The antibody to PRL has been prepared and characterized. Using these monoclonal antibodies, the localization of adducts in tissues has been confirmed. Moreover, both amide-type adducts, HEL and PRL, can be simultaneously measured using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) with isotope dilution methods. The LC/MS/MS analysis reveals the rigid amounts of the adducts in human urine. Both the chemical and immunochemical methods are useful for the estimation of amide-type adducts in vivo.

Abstract
The quantification of urinary oxidized tyrosines, dityrosine (DiY), nitrotyrosine (NY), bromotyrosine (BrY), and dibromotyrosine (DiBrY), was accomplished by quadruple liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS). The sample was partially purified by solid phase extraction, and was then applied to the LC/MS/MS using multiple-reaction monitoring (MRM) methods. The analysis for the DiY quantification was done first. The residual samples were further butylated with n-butanol/HCl, and the other modified tyrosines were then quantified with isotopic dilution methods. MRM peaks of the modified tyrosines (DiY, NY, BrY, and DiBrY) from human urine were measured and the elution times coincided with the authentic and isotopic standards. The amounts of modified tyrosines in healthy human urine (n = 23) were 8.8 ± 0.6 (DiY), 1.4 ± 0.4 (NY), 3.8 ± 0.3 (BrY), and 0.7 ± 0.1 (DiBrY) µmol/mol of creatinine, respectively. A comparison of the modified tyrosines with urinary 8-oxo-deoxyguanosine, pentosidine, and Nε-(hexanoyl)lysine was also performed. Almost all products, except for NY, showed good correlations with each other. The amounts of the modified tyrosines (NY, BrY, and DiBrY) in the diabetic urine were higher than those in the urine from healthy people.

Abstract
Various lines of evidence indicate that the oxidative modification of protein and the subsequent accumulation of the degenerated proteins have been found in cells and tissues during aging, oxidative stress, and in a variety of pathological states. The critical agents that give rise to this protein degeneration may be represented by aldehydes. Although the covalent modification of proteins by aldehydes alone has been well-studied, the effect of reactive oxygen species, such as H2O2, upon aldehyde modification of the protein has received little attention. We have now established a unique protein modification in which H2O2 and, to a lesser extent, alkyl hydroperoxides mediate the binding of alkanals to the lysine residues of protein to generate structurally unusual N-acylation products. Upon the reaction of a lysine-containing peptide, N(alpha)-benzoylglycyl-lysine, with hexanal in the presence of H2O2, a product containing one molecule of hexanal per peptide was detected. On the basis of the chemical and spectroscopic evidence, the product was identified to be the acylation product, N(epsilon)-hexanoyllysine. H2O2 mediated the N-acylation of the lysine derivative by the saturated aldehydes of 1-6 carbons in length. The H2O2-mediated acylation of the protein was immunochemically confirmed by reaction of the proteins with hexanal in the presence of H2O2. Furthermore, the enhanced N-acylations (N-acetylation and N-hexanoylation) were also observed in the kidney of rats exposed to ferric nitrilotriacetate, a well-characterized inducer of oxidative stress. Mechanistic studies using a phosphonium lysine derivative suggest a Baeyer-Villiger-like reaction proceeding through peroxide addition to the aldehyde Schiff base. These data suggest that the hydroperoxides, including H2O2, might be involved not only in the oxidative modification of protein but also in the covalent binding of the saturated aldehydes to proteins under oxidative stress.

Abstract
This study was performed to evaluate the effects of the TNF-alpha inhibitor etanercept on oxidation stress markers representing DNA damage, lipid peroxidation, and protein glycosylation. Twenty-two rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients underwent etanercept treatment. The levels of serum total, urinary total, and urinary free pentosidine, which is an advanced glycation end-product (AGE), of urinary N(epsilon)-hexanoyl lysine (N(epsilon)-HEL), and of 8-hydroxy-deoxy guanosine (8-OHdG) were measured at baseline and at 3 and 6 months after the initial treatment with etanercept. Serum total and urinary total pentosidine levels were reduced at 6 months after the initial treatment with etanercept, and urinary free pentosidine levels were reduced at 3 and 6 months. Urinary N(epsilon)-HEL levels were also reduced at 3 and 6 months, and urinary 8-OHdG levels were reduced at 6 months. Serum total and urinary total pentosidine levels in RA patients correlated with the number of swelling joints and tender joints, and urinary total pentosidine levels correlated with the Disease Activity Score using 28 joints (DAS28). This study demonstrated that etanercept acts as a regulator against pentosidine formation, oxidative DNA damage, and lipid peroxidation in RA patients.

Abstract
Curcumin (U1) has a wide spectrum of therapeutic effects such as antitumor and anti-inflammatory effects, including antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal, and antispasmodic activities. By comparison of the structure-activity relationship, tetrahydrocurcumin (THU1), one of the major metabolites, showed the highest antioxidative activity in both in vitro and in vivo systems. U1 has been reported to have the nephroprotective effect to improve creatinine and urea clearance and also protected the chronic renal allograft nephropathy. These beneficial effects have been explained by the protection of oxidative stress and the induction of antioxidative enzymes. The protective effect of THU1 against ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced oxidative renal damage using male ddY mice was greater than that of U1, by monitoring not only radical scavenging activity measured by ESR, and TBARS, 4-HNE-modified protein and 8-OHdG formation but also induction of anioxidative enzymes and detoxification enzymes. THU1 was also expected to improve redox regulation through glutathione and suppress the oxidative stress in diabetic nephropathy and neuropathy. Earlier studies reported that U1 reduced the iron-induced hepatic damage, aflatoxin- and benzo[a]pyrene- induced mutagenicity and hepatocarcinogenecity and also the formation of the DNA adduct by inhibiting cytochrome P450 in the liver. The hepatoprotective role of U1 has been examined using carbone terachloride-induced liver damage in rats and alcoholic liver disease model rats, but not examined using THU1. Our recent data suggests that THU1 is a more promising hepatprotective agent because of its strong induction activity of antioxidant and phase 2-metabolizing enzymes in liver compared to kidney, although more detaied examinations are required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cocoa powder is rich in polyphenols such as catechins and procyanidins and has been shown in various models to inhibit LDL oxidation and atherogenesis. OBJECTIVE We examined whether long-term intake of cocoa powder alters plasma lipid profiles in normocholesterolemic and mildly hypercholesterolemic human subjects. DESIGN Twenty-five subjects were randomly assigned to ingest either 12 g sugar/d (control group) or 26 g cocoa powder and 12 g sugar/d (cocoa group) for 12 wk. Blood samples were collected before the study and 12 wk after intake of the test drinks. Plasma lipids, LDL oxidative susceptibility, and urinary oxidative stress markers were measured. RESULTS At 12 wk, we measured a 9% prolongation from baseline levels in the lag time of LDL oxidation in the cocoa group. This prolongation in the cocoa group was significantly greater than the reduction measured in the control group (-13%). A significantly greater increase in plasma HDL cholesterol (24%) was observed in the cocoa group than in the control group (5%). A negative correlation was observed between plasma concentrations of HDL cholesterol and oxidized LDL. At 12 wk, there was a 24% reduction in dityrosine from baseline concentrations in the cocoa group. This reduction in the cocoa group was significantly greater than the reduction in the control group (-1%). CONCLUSION It is possible that increases in HDL-cholesterol concentrations may contribute to the suppression of LDL oxidation and that polyphenolic substances derived from cocoa powder may contribute to an elevation in HDL cholesterol.

Abstract
Free radical-catalyzed peroxidation of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, C22:6/omega-3) generates various lipid peroxidation products that covalently modify biomolecules such as proteins. Under a free radical-generating system, DHA significantly modified lysine residues in bovine serum albumin. Upon incubation of oxidized DHA with an amino-compound pyridoxamine or a lysine-containing peptide, N-propanoyl and N-succinyl adducts were determined to be the major modification products. The hydroperoxide levels in the oxidized DHA closely reflected the formation of the N(epsilon)-(succinyl)lysine (SUL) upon reaction with the peptide, indicating that the hydroperoxides of DHA represent a potential pathway for the formation of SUL. To detect the DHA-derived protein modification in vivo, we developed a monoclonal antibody (mAb2B12) specific to SUL and found that the antibody specifically reacts with the SUL moiety. The formation of SUL was then immunochemically demonstrated in the liver of mice fed with DHA followed by intraperitoneal injection of carbon tetrachloride (CCl(4)), a hepatic lipid peroxidation model. Immunoreactive materials with mAb2B12 were observed in the DHA + CCl(4) group, but were not significant in the control, DHA-alone, and CCl(4)-alone groups. These data suggest that the formation of DHA-derived adducts such as SUL may be implicated in the oxidative damage observed in DHA-enriched tissues.

Abstract
Hyperglycemia causes the autoxidation of glucose, glycation of proteins, and the activation of polyol metabolism. These changes accelerate generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and increases in oxidative chemical modification of lipids, DNA, and proteins in various tissues. Oxidative stress may play an important role in the development of complications in diabetes such as lens cataracts, nephropathy, and neuropathy. Glycation reactions, especially Maillard reactions, occur in vivo as well as in vitro and are associated with the chronic complications of diabetes mellitus and aging and age-related diseases by increases in oxidative chemical modification of lipids, DNA, and proteins. In particular, long-lived proteins such as lens crystallines, collagens, and hemoglobin may react with reducing sugars to form advanced glycation end products (AGEs). Recently, we found a novel type of AGE, named MRX, and we found that MRX is a good biomarker for detecting oxidative stress produced during Maillard reaction. We also examined in detail the role of lipid peroxidation reaction in hyperglycemia and found that hexanoyl modification formed by the reaction of oxidized lipids and proteins must be important for oxidative stress. Detailed analyses of the formation mechanism of hexanoyl lysine (HEL) moiety in proteins were conducted, and excretion of HEL into urine was quantified by using LC/MS/MS. Macrophages and neutrophils play an important role in oxidative stress during hyperglycemia, and we determined that oxidatively modified tyrosines are a good biomarker for formation of oxidative stress at an early stage. Immunochemical analyses by application of monoclonal antibodies specific to lipid hydroperoxide-modified proteins produced by polyunsaturated fatty acids including docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) in oxidative stress caused by hyperglycemia were conducted, and the relationship between glycation and lipid peroxidation reactions both by chemical and immunochemical approaches are discussed. Recently, we put much more focus on dietary antioxidants for prevention of diabetic complications. Curcuminoids, the main yellow pigments in Curcuma longa (turmeric), have been used widely and for a long time in the treatment of sprain and inflammation in indigenous medicine. Curcumin is the main component of turmeric, and two minor components are also present as the curcuminoids. Curcuminoids possess antioxidant activity. Protective effects of curcumin (U1) and one of its major metabolites, tetrahydrocurcumin (THU1), have been examined for development of diabetic cataract in 25% galactose-fed SD rats. Through detailed examination of protective mechanisms of THU1, it was found that THU1 showed that scavenger ROS not only formed during hyperglycemia, but also induced antioxidative enzymes including detoxification enzymes such as glutathine S-transferase. THU1 also showed significant increase of glutathione concentration in the cultured rat lens. Glutathione (gamma-glutamylcysteinyl glycine [GSH]) is thought to be an important factor in cellular function and defense against oxidative stress, and we found that dietary GSH suppresses oxidative stress in vivo in prevention of diabetic complications such as diabetic nephropathy and neuropathy.
