What is the role of the neutrophil extracellular traps in the cardiovascular disease burden associated with hemodialysis bioincompatibility? Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 10:1268748.

Abstract
Despite significant progress in dialysis modalities, intermittent renal replacement therapy remains an "unphysiological" treatment that imperfectly corrects uremic disorders and may lead to low-grade chronic inflammation, neutrophil activation, and oxidative stress due to repetitive blood/membrane interactions contributing to the "remaining uremic syndrome" and cardiovascular disease burden of hemodialysis patients. Understanding dialysis bioincompatibility pathways still remains a clinical and biochemical challenge. Indeed, surrogate biomarkers of inflammation including C-reactive protein could not discriminate between all components involved in these complex pathways. A few examples may serve to illustrate the case. Cytokine release during dialysis sessions may be underestimated due to their removal using high-flux dialysis or hemodiafiltration modalities. Complement activation is recognized as a key event of bioincompatibility. However, it appears as an early and transient event with anaphylatoxin level normalization at the end of the dialysis session. Complement activation is generally assumed to trigger leukocyte stimulation leading to proinflammatory mediators' secretion and oxidative burst. In addition to being part of the innate immune response involved in eliminating physically and enzymatically microbes, the formation of Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs), known as NETosis, has been recently identified as a major harmful component in a wide range of pathologies associated with inflammatory processes. NETs result from the neutrophil degranulation induced by reactive oxygen species overproduction via NADPH oxidase and consist of modified chromatin decorated with serine proteases, elastase, bactericidal proteins, and myeloperoxidase (MPO) that produces hypochlorite anion. Currently, NETosis remains poorly investigated as a sensitive and integrated marker of bioincompatibility in dialysis. Only scarce data could be found in the literature. Oxidative burst and NADPH oxidase activation are well-known events in the bioincompatibility phenomenon. NET byproducts such as elastase, MPO, and circulating DNA have been reported to be increased in dialysis patients more specifically during dialysis sessions, and were identified as predictors of poor outcomes. As NETs and MPO could be taken up by endothelium, NETs could be considered as a vascular memory of intermittent bioincompatibility phenomenon. In this working hypothesis article, we summarized the puzzle pieces showing the involvement of NET formation during hemodialysis and postulated that NETosis may act as a disease modifier and may contribute to the comorbid burden associated with dialysis bioincompatibility.

Ren Fail 2023; 45:2252093. [PMID: 37753870 PMCID: PMC10538458 DOI: 10.1080/0886022x.2023.2252093] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/26/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/28/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate how aerobic exercise affects oxidative stress (OS) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS Retrieval dates range from the date the database was established to 19 July 2023, without languages being restricted. A meta-analysis and sensitivity analysis were conducted using RevMan 5.3 and Stata 16.0. RESULTS The meta-analysis showed that, compared to usual activity or no exercise, aerobic exercise significantly reduced the oxidative markers malondialdehyde (MDA) (mean differences (MD) - 0.96 (95% CI -1.33, - 0.59); p < 0.00001), advanced oxidation protein product (AOPP) (MD - 3.49 (95% CI - 5.05, - 1.93); p < 0.00001), F2-isoprostanes (F2-iso) (MD - 11.02 (95% CI - 17.79, - 4.25); p = 0.001). Aerobic exercise also increased the antioxidant marker superoxide dismutase (SOD) in CKD patients (standardized mean differences (SMD) 1.30 (95% CI 0.56, 2.04); p = 0.0005). Subgroup analysis showed a significant increase in glutathione peroxidase (GPX) in patients aged ≥60 years (SMD 2.11 (95% CI 1.69, 2.54); p < 0.00001). The change in total antioxidant capacity (TAC) after aerobic exercise was insignificant in patients with CKD. The trial sequential analysis supported aerobic exercise's effectiveness in improving MDA, SOD, AOPP, and F2-iso in patients with CKD. CONCLUSION The results of this review suggest that aerobic exercise improves OS indicators (MDA, SOD, AOPP, and F2-iso) in CKD patients compared to conventional treatment or no exercise and that the effects on GPX and TAC indicators need further confirmation. For better validation of benefits and exploration of the best aerobic exercise regimen to improve OS status with CKD, further studies with high methodological quality and large sample sizes are needed.

Abstract
The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the effects of anthocyanins-interventions on oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid profile in patients undergoing hemodialysis. This systematic review and meta-analysis were registered on the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO CRD42020209742). The primary outcome was anthocyanins-rich intervention on OS parameters and secondary outcome was anthocyanins-rich intervention on inflammation and dyslipidemia. RevMan 5.4 software was used to analyze the effect size of anthocyanins-rich intervention on OS, inflammation and dyslipidemia. Meta-analysis effect size calculations incorporated random-effects model for both outcomes 1 and 2. Eight studies were included in the systematic review (trials enrolling 715 patients; 165 men and 195 women; age range between 30 and 79 years). Anthocyanin intervention in patients undergoing hemodialysis decrease the oxidant parameters (std. mean: -2.64, 95% CI: [-3.77, -1.50], P ≤ 0.0001, I2 = 97%). Specially by reduction of malondialdehyde products in favor of anthocyanins-rich intervention (std. mean: -14.58 µmol.L, 95% CI: [-26.20, -2.96], P ≤ 0.0001, I2 = 99%) and myeloperoxidase (std. mean: -1.28 ηg.mL, 95% CI: [-2.11, -0.45], P = 0.003, I2 = 77%) against placebo group. Decrease inflammatory parameters (std. mean: -0.57, 95% CI: [-0.98, -0.16], P = 0.007, I2 = 79%), increase HDL cholesterol levels (std. mean: 0.58 mg.dL, 95% CI: [0.23, 0.94], P = 0.001, I2 = 12%) against placebo group. Anthocyanins-rich intervention seems to reduce oxidative stress, inflammatory parameters and improve lipid profile by increasing HDL cholesterol levels in patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis.

Abstract
The present study aimed to analyze the associations of cardiac function with inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress and anemia in patients with uremia. A total of 79 patients with uremia were selected, and among those, 43 cases were complicated with cardiac dysfunction (observation group) and 36 patients were not (control group). The levels of inflammatory cytokines [C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-10], oxidative stress indicators [malondialdehyde (MDA), oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OX-LDL) and advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP)], blood routine parameters [hemoglobin (Hb), platelets (PLT), mean corpuscular volume (MCV)], and cardiac function [including cardiac output (CO), cardiac stroke volume (SV), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd) and left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESd)] were measured. There were no statistically significant differences in age, sex, body mass index, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol between the observation and the control group (P>0.05), but the observation group had significantly higher triglyceride levels and blood pressure, as well as longer duration of uremia compared with those in the control group (P<0.05). Furthermore, the levels of CRP, IL-6, IL-10, MDA, OX-LDL, AOPP, Hb, PLT and MCV in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. In addition, regarding cardiac function, the observation group had a decreased CO, SV and LVEF and an increased LVEDd and LVESd compared with those in the control group. Furthermore, CRP (r=-0.636, P<0.01) and MDA (r=-0.705, P<0.01) were negatively correlated with LVEF, while Hb levels were positively correlated with LVEF (r=0.732, P<0.001). In conclusion, serum inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress and the degree of anemia are associated with cardiac insufficiency in patients with uremia.

Abstract
PURPOSE Medium cut-off membranes were developed for providing increased clearance of larger middle-molecule uremic toxins. We compared the effect of low-flux, medium cut-off, and high-flux membranes on chronic inflammation and oxidative stress in patients with maintenance hemodialysis. METHODS A total of 42 patients were enrolled in this study. Total antioxidant status, total oxidant status, paraoxonase-1, ischemia-modified albumin, total Thiol, disulfide bond, and native Thiol were measured to determine oxidative stress. C-reactive protein was measured to define inflammation. RESULTS 37% of the total patients were females, and the mean age was 52.9 ± 16 years. Serum albumin and Kt/V were similar between groups during the study period. We did not find any significant difference at baseline in the 3rd and 6th months of the study when we compared the inflammatory marker and oxidative indicator levels between three hemodialysis membranes in the whole study group. In the subgroup analysis of 19 patients with a high C-reactive protein level, we found that the medium cut-off membrane significantly reduced serum C-reactive protein level, when compared to low-flux and high-flux membrane [2.8 mg/L vs. 13.7 mg/L and 6.1 mg/L, respectively, p = 0.05]. However, we did not find a significant change in oxidative stress indicators in patients with high C-reactive protein levels between the three dialysers. CONCLUSION The medium cut-off membrane has favorable effects on inflammation in patients with maintenance hemodialysis. However, this positive effect could not be demonstrated in oxidative stress.

Abstract
Background Increased oxidant stress is increasingly recognized as a crucial factor in anemia in patients with chronic kidney disease. Vitamin E-coated membranes (VECMs) consist of a multilayer membrane with liposoluble vitamin E on the blood surface allowing direct free radical scavenging at the membrane site, which is of potential clinical benefit. Our objective was to examine the effect of VECMs on anemia in chronic hemodialysis (HD). Methods We enrolled 172 stable chronic HD patients (94 men, 78 women, age 65.4 ± 13.4 years) in an open-label multicenter study. They were shifted from their previous dialyzer to VECM for 1 year. Hemoglobin (Hb) levels and recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEpo) dosage were analyzed after 4, 8, and 12 months on the VECM and compared with baseline values using paired tests. Results Hb significantly increased from 10.9 ± 1.2 g/dL at baseline to 11.7 ± 1.2 g/dL after 12 months (p<0.001) on VECMs. Conversely, the rHuEpo dosage decreased from 7,762 ± 5,865 IU/week at baseline to 6,390 ± 5,679 IU/week after 12 months (p<0.001). The proportion of patients who were at target Hb levels (European Best Practice Guidelines) increased from 49.4% at baseline to 80% after 12 months (p<0.001). Conclusions Dialysis with VECM in stable chronic HD patients was associated with significantly improved Hb levels and lower rHuEpo requirements. These results suggest that the antioxidant properties of VECMs may impact favorably on anemia management in chronic HD patients. Possible mechanisms include enhanced membrane biocompatibility, reduced oxidative stress and inflammation with VECMs, resulting in improved red blood cell survival and/or rHuEpo responsiveness. This therapy may potentially contribute to more effective anemia management in hemodialysis patients, and merits further rigorous study.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) experience imbalance between oxygen reactive species (ROS) production and antioxidant defenses leading to cell and tissue damage. However, it remains unclear at which stage of renal insufficiency the redox imbalance becomes more profound. The aim of this systematic review was to provide an update on recent advances in our understanding of how the redox status changes in the progression of renal disease from predialysis stages 1 to 4 to end stage 5 and whether the various treatments and dialysis modalities influence the redox balance. A systematic review was conducted searching PubMed and Scopus by using the Cochrane and PRISMA guidelines. In total, thirty-nine studies met the inclusion criteria and were reviewed. Even from an early stage, imbalance in redox status is evident and as the kidney function worsens it becomes more profound. Hemodialysis therapy per se seems to negatively influence the redox status by the elevation of lipid peroxidation markers, protein carbonylation, and impairing erythrocyte antioxidant defense. However, other dialysis modalities do not so far appear to confer advantages. Supplementation with antioxidants might assist and should be considered as an early intervention to halt premature atherogenesis development at an early stage of CKD.

Abstract
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) are at risk for a numerous complications. This study was intended to evaluate breath analysis for monitoring and therapy initiation under haemodialysis (HD). Exhaled alveolar air from 30 ESRD patients during 4 h thrice-weekly HD was analysed by means of HS-SPME-GC-MS. Venous blood samples were taken for determination of conventional serum parameters. Exhaled concentrations of isoprene (10-589 ppbV) were dropped at initiation of HD and increased at the end of HD. Isoprene concentration changes were similar to changes of serum LDH activities. Variation of exhaled acetone concentrations (59 to 8509 ppbV) was significantly lower in diabetic patients when compared to non-diabetics. Exhaled pentane (0.3 to 12 ppbV) increased at onset of HD and returned to baseline levels afterwards. Benzene concentrations showed typical washout characteristics. Ethanol and DMS concentrations remained constant during HD. Breath analysis can be used to recognize oxidative stress, metabolic conditions and haemolysis during HD. Hence, non-invasive breath testing could be used to monitor ESRD patients under HD and prevent them from being affected by well-known detrimental side effects of renal replacement therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Treatment with selective vitamin D receptor activators such as paricalcitol have been shown to exert an anti-inflammatory effect in patients on hemodialysis, in addition to their action on mineral metabolism and independently of parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels. The objective of this study was to evaluate the additional antioxidant capacity of paricalcitol in a clinical setting. METHODS The study included 19 patients with renal disease on hemodialysis, of whom peripheral blood was obtained for analysis at baseline and three months after starting intravenous paricalcitol treatment. The following oxidizing and inflammatory markers were quantified: malondialdehyde (MDA), nitrites and carbonyl groups, indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), tumor necrosis factor alfa (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-18 (IL-18) and C-reactive protein (CRP). Of the antioxidants and anti-inflammatory markers, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, reduced glutathione (GSH), thioredoxin, and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels were obtained. RESULTS Baseline levels of oxidation markers MDA, nitric oxide and protein carbonyl groups significantly decreased after three months on paricalcitol treatment, while levels of GSH, thioredoxin, catalase and SOD activity significantly increased. After paricalcitol treatment, levels of the inflammatory markers CRP, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-18 were significantly reduced in serum and the level of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 was increased. CONCLUSIONS In renal patients undergoing hemodialysis, paricalcitol treatment significantly reduces oxidative stress and inflammation, two well known factors leading to cardiovascular damage.

Abstract
Kidney diseases are the ninth leading cause of death in the USA. In these patients cardiovascular mortality is greater than in the general population. This observation, not completely explained by the so-called 'traditional' cardiovascular risk factors, lead the authors to postulate other 'emerging' ones found in chronic renal failure patients. Among these new findings, nutritional status, considered as the balance existing between nutrient requirements and intakes, plays an important role for the development of cardiovascular diseases. In fact several nutritional parameters are widely known as pathophysiological determinants of cardiovascular disturbances, which are based on accelerated atherosclerosis, due especially to enhanced oxidative stress and endothelial dysfunction. Chronic renal failure is a clinical condition that from many points of view seems to be a chronic inflammatory state, and many studies confirm this observation. This influences nutritional status especially in dialysis patients. Malnutrition is related in turn to accelerated atherosclerosis thus leading to a postulated 'malnutrition, inflammation, atherosclerosis' (MIA) syndrome in which malnutrition, inflammation and atherosclerosis contribute to an elevated cardiovascular mortality rate. The present review explores this issue, first by describing epidemiological aspects of malnutrition in chronic renal failure patients and then by analysing the specific biochemical and metabolic features of these patients.

Abstract
Emblica Officinalis (also known as Amla or Indian Gooseberry), a natural, traditional and functional food in Asia, has physiological benefits such as hepato-, cyto- and radio- protection, as well as hypolipidemic effects. In addition, Amla often functions as a potent antioxidant due to the high level of ascorbic acid (ranging from 1,100 to 1,700 mg/100 g of fruit) in its fruit. The aim of this study was to determine whether supplementation with Amla extract could reduce oxidative stress in patients with uremia. The findings show that supplementation with Amla extract for 4 months reduced the plasma oxidative marker, 8-iso-prostaglandin, (M0 vs. M4 = 1415 ± 1234 pg/ml vs. 750 ± 496 pg/ml, p < 0.05) and increased plasma total antioxidant status (TAS) (M0 vs. M4 = 2.32 ± 0.14 mM vs. 2.55 ± 0.24 mM, p < 0.05) in uremic patients. On the other hand, there were no significant differences observed in liver function (GOP and GPT), renal function (creatinine, blood urea nitrogen and uric acid), diabetic index (plasma glucose and adiponectin) and atherogenic index (LDL/HDL ratio, total cholesterol and homocysteine) in patients treated with Amla for 4 months. Our data suggest that Amla supplementation may increase plasma antioxidant power and decrease oxidative stress in uremic patients. However, Amla extract did not influence hepatic or renal function, or diabetic and atherogenic indices in uremic patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of HD on ischemia modified albumin (IMA) and protein carbonyl groups in order to investigate the role of IMA as a marker of protein oxidation. DESIGN AND METHODS This study was conducted with 23 chronic hemodialysis patients. The serum IMA levels and protein carbonyl groups were measured immediately before hemodialysis (pre-HD) and after the end of hemodialysis (post-HD). RESULTS IMA concentrations were significantly higher in post-HD than those of the pre-HD and carbonyl protein concentrations were higher in post-HD in comparison with pre-HD. A significant correlation was observed between IMA and carbonyl protein levels. CONCLUSIONS The increase of IMA levels and protein carbonyl groups post-HD could be attributed to the increase of oxidative stress associated with HD, and IMA appears to be an important biomarker for assessing protein oxidation after HD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previously, we reported an increase in expressions of mRNA of Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD) in leukocytes of hemodialysis (HD) patients, and speculated that the increase is associated with oxidative stress on the leukocyte membrane due to the HD process. METHODS Expressions of Cu/Zn-SOD mRNA in leukocytes, contents of plasma SOD, and malondialdehyde (MDA) in leukocyte and erythrocyte membranes, respectively, were examined in 25 HD patients and 14 healthy volunteers. These were also determined after using a vitamin E-coated dialyzer (VE dialyzer) for 4 weeks. RESULTS All values were significantly higher in HD patients. A significant correlation was found between leukocyte Cu/Zn-SOD mRNA expression and membrane MDA. After using the VE dialyzer, all values were significantly lowered, showing a significant correlation between changing rate of leukocyte Cu/Zn-SOD mRNA expression and membrane MDA. CONCLUSION In HD patients, oxidative stress is generated on the leukocyte membrane, and the level of Cu/Zn-SOD mRNA in leukocytes can be a useful oxidative stress marker.

Abstract
Background We sought to investigate the relationships among the plasma levels of carotenoids, tocopherols, endogenous antioxidants, oxidative damage and lipid profiles and their possible effects on the cardiovascular risk associated with hemodialysis (HD) patients. Methods The study groups were divided into HD and healthy subjects. Plasma carotenoid, tocopherol and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, as well as erythrocyte reduced glutathione (GSH), were measured by HPLC. Blood antioxidant enzymes, kidney function biomarkers and the lipid profiles were analyzed by spectrophotometric methods. Results Plasma lycopene levels and blood glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activity were significantly decreased in HD patients compared with healthy subjects. Total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), creatinine, urea, MDA, GSH, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were significantly increased in HD (p < 0.05). Lycopene levels were correlated with MDA (r = -0.50; p < 0.01), LDL-c (r = -0.38; p = 0.01) levels, the LDL-c/HDL-c index (r = -0.33; p = 0.03) and GPx activity (r = 0.30; p = 0.03). Regression models showed that lycopene levels were correlated with LDL-c (β estimated = -31.59; p = 0.04), while gender was correlated with the TC/HDL-c index and triglycerides. Age did not present a correlation with the parameters evaluated. GPx activity was negatively correlated with MDA levels and with the LDL-c/HDL-c and CT/HDL-c indexes. Conclusions Lycopene may represent an additional factor that contributes to reduced lipid peroxidation and atherogenesis in hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intradialytic hypotension (IDH) is a common clinical trait in hemodialysis (HD) which is caused by poor biocompatibility of the dialyzer membrane. Aiming to improve IDH, vitamin E-bonded polysulfone dialyzer (VPS-H) was evaluated in a pilot study. METHODS Eight IDH patients on standard HD were switched from their conventional high-flux dialyzers to VPS-H, and intradialytic blood pressure (BP) was monitored regularly for 10 months. RESULTS The results showed that hypotension of systolic BP (SBP), diastolic BP (DBP) and pulse pressure (PP) during the session were improved after changing the dialyzer. Notably, almost all the values recorded from 120 minutes into the session until the end of the treatment in the period between the second and tenth month after treatment were significantly different from the corresponding baseline values. Moreover, after 8 to 10 months, the SBP prior to a dialysis session was significantly reduced compared with baseline values. On the other hand, the pulse rate showed no difference throughout the study period. CONCLUSIONS This study provides early evidence of the beneficial role that vitamin E-bonded dialyzers may have in preventing IDH. Larger controlled trials are needed to confirm this original finding.

Abstract
The reader may be eager to examine in which diseases ozonetherapy can be proficiently used and she/he will be amazed by the versatility of this complementary approach (Table 9 1). The fact that the medical applications are numerous exposes the ozonetherapist to medical derision because superficial observers or sarcastic sceptics consider ozonetherapy as the modern panacea. This seems so because ozone, like oxygen, is a molecule able to act simultaneously on several blood components with different functions but, as we shall discuss, ozonetherapy is not a panacea. The ozone messengers ROS and LOPs can act either locally or systemically in practically all cells of an organism. In contrast to the dogma that “ozone is always toxic”, three decades of clinical experience, although mostly acquired in private clinics in millions of patients, have shown that ozone can act as a disinfectant, an oxygen donor, an immunomodulator, a paradoxical inducer of antioxidant enzymes, a metabolic enhancer, an inducer of endothelial nitric oxide synthase and possibly an activator of stem cells with consequent neovascularization and tissue reconstruction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hemodialysis is a common therapeutic strategy for patients with end stage renal failure. During the hemodialytic process, the neutrophils are activated (neutrophil burst) due to the hemoincompatibility induced by hemodialysis. As a result, the activated neutrophils release reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide, singlet oxygen, and hypochlorite, into the bloodstream and cause oxidative damage. METHODS This study investigated the antioxidant alteration of plasma in uremic patients undergoing hemodialysis by chemiluminescent analysis. The antioxidant capacities of plasma in scavenging hydrogen peroxide, singlet oxygen, and hypochlorite were investigated in this experiment. In addition, investigation of the ferric-reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) would be covered in this study as well. RESULTS This study found that after hemodialysis, the antioxidant capacities of plasma in scavenging hydrogen peroxide, singlet oxygen, and hypochlorite decreases 7.9%, 18.8%, and 18.9%, respectively. Moreover, the FRAP is reduced by 56%. We speculate that the loss of dialyzable solutes (such as uremic solutes and antioxidants with small molecular weight) in plasma resulted in its decrease in antioxidant capacity. CONCLUSION We therefore suggest that the supplement of antioxidants with small molecular weight is capable of regaining antioxidant defense in plasma and preventing oxidative damage induced by hemodialysis.

Abstract
The diagnostic approach to acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is challenging in patients with impaired renal function since most serum biomarkers are commonly increased in this clinical setting. Cardiac troponin T (cTnT), creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (CK MB), myoglobin, and ischemia modified albumin (IMA), were assayed in 45 patients prehemodialysis (pre-HD) and posthemodialysis (post-HD), and results were adjusted for hemoconcentration. The pre-HD values of serum IMA and cTnT were above the respective diagnostic thresholds (IMA<85 K units/L; cTnT <0.03 ng/mL) in six (13%) and 27 (60%) patients undergoing chronic HD, respectively. A significant (105.0 vs. 79.0 K units/L, P<0.0001) and variable (+38%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 12-65%) increase of serum IMA was observed post-HD, whereas the other biomarkers significantly decreased (cTnT: 0.029 vs. 0.044 ng/mL, P=0.016; CK-MB: 2.33 vs. 2.50 microg/L, P<0.0001; myoglobin: 128.1 vs. 148.7 microg/L, P<0.0001). Biomarkers of myocardial injury, especially cTnT and IMA, might be used in HD patients, provided that an appropriate diagnostic interpretation is guarantee, according to individual baseine value, metabolism, and time of sampling. Moreover, IMA might be reliably applied to stratify the long-term risk of these patients, but not for diagnosing an ACS during or immediately post-HD.

Abstract
While it is well known that hemodialysis (HD) patients with end stage renal failure are exposed to high oxidative stress, there is not a general opinion regarding whether antioxidant activity is high or low in these patients. We evaluated the variation of plasma hydroxyl radical scavenging activity (p-HRSA) by a single-session of HD in 69 patients by using a new system, reactive flow-injection electron spin resonance. And then comparing p-HRSA with their biochemical parameters, we tried to elucidate what components affected p-HRSA in the HD patients. The average of p-HRSA significantly increased after HD and the variation of p-HRSA by HD was correlated with that of plasma total protein (TP). In 5 patients however, their p-HRSA decreased after HD, in spite of increasing TP. In pre-HD, the p-HRSA values and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of low-molecular weight fraction of plasma were significantly higher in these 5 patients than in patients whose p-HRSA increased after HD. These 5 patients were in an inflammatory state. These findings suggest that p-HRSA is mainly affected by TP, but caution should be exercised in patients who have high p-HRSA before HD and whose p-HRSA does not increase after HD.

Abstract
Mortality is markedly elevated in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Between 30 and 50% of prevalent patients have elevated serum levels of inflammatory markers such as C-reactive protein and IL-6. The presence of inflammation, chronic or episodic, has been found to be associated with increased mortality risk. The causes of inflammation are multifactorial and include patient-related factors, such as underlying disease, comorbidity, oxidative stress, infections, obesity, and genetic or immunologic factors, or on the other side, HD-related factors, mainly depending on the membrane biocompatibility and dialysate quality. The adequate knowledge of these causes and their prevention or treatment if possible may contribute to improving the inflammatory state of patients who are on HD and possibly their mortality.

Abstract
In this paper, we studied the influence of uremia and hemodialysis on oxidative parameters and delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (delta-ALA-D) activity in control subjects, patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) on hemodialysis treatment (HD) and in patients not undergoing hemodialysis (ND). An increased lipid peroxidation was observed in the serum of HD and ND patients, as measured by the MDA serum levels. However, the level of MDA from erythrocytes was only elevated in HD patients. Blood catalase activity was increased in HD and ND groups. This study also showed a decreased activity of blood delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (delta-ALA-D) in both groups of patients. This study demonstrated a positive correlation between ALA-D activity and hemoglobin, suggesting that inhibition of this enzyme might enhance anemia in CRF. A negative correlation was found between the alteration in delta-ALA-D activity and oxidative stress, which may indicate that the inhibition of ALA-D can be used as an index of oxidative stress.

Abstract
Oxidative stress plays a significant role in the development of inflammation in patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). This study intends to evaluate the relationship between C-reactive protein (CRP) and the newly established marker of lipid peroxidation, d-ROMs (reactive oxygen metabolites), in comparison with different indicators of oxidative stress. Plasma total antioxidant capacity (TAC), lipid peroxidation products malonaldehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxyalkenals, as well as d-ROMs, were determined in 24 patients before HD and in 21 normal controls (NC). It was found that HD patients had higher levels of d-ROMs than NC (p = 0.033). A highly significant positive correlation was observed between logCRP and d-ROMs concentrations (p < 0.0001, r = 0.85) in patients, but not in NC. The concentrations of TAC and MDA were not associated with CRP in HD or in NC individuals. It is concluded that d-ROMs concentration is a potent marker of oxidative injury that is strongly indicative of the inflammatory status in HD patients.

Abstract
AIM To analyze various oxidative stress parameters in the saliva and serum of patients with chronic renal failure (CRF) and/or diabetes mellitus (DM), and to compare them in dialytic vs. pre-dialytic patients. METHOD 50 consenting patients were divided into five subgroups of patients: severe CRF (dialytic) without DM, severe CRF (dialytic) with DM, mild CRF (pre-dialytic) without DM, mild CRF (pre-dialytic) with DM, and with DM but without CRF (controls). Uric acid (UA), peroxidase and total antioxidant status (TAS) were studied in both saliva and serum; superoxide dismutase (SOD) was evaluated only in saliva. Both saliva collection and serum harvesting were done simultaneously. RESULTS In severe-CRF patients without DM, median TAS, UA and SOD levels decreased following dialysis (54, 85, 48%, respectively), and peroxidase levels increased slightly (9%). In severe-CRF patients with DM, median TAS and SOD levels increased following dialysis (33 and 54%, respectively) while median UA and peroxidase levels decreased (68 and 10%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS DM, CRF and hemodialysis were found to increase the oxidative stress burden in both serum and saliva. Therefore, antioxidant assessment may be used to monitor baseline oxidative status in these situations though larger randomized studies are in order.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Vitamin C levels decrease during hemodialysis (HD), which deteriorates antioxidant defense. Vitamin C may also act pro-oxidatively, via reduction in Fe(III). We sought to determine whether intravenous iron (Fe(iv))-induced oxidative stress differs in HD patients with low and physiological vitamin C levels and whether intravenous vitamin C (C(iv)) administration during HD would change the response to Fe(iv). PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty patients with vitamin C deficiency (median 15.7 micromol/l, range 8.0-22.7) received Fe(iv) (100 mg iron sucrose between 150 and 180 min of HD). After 4 weeks of oral supplementation, the levels of vitamin C were comparable with those of controls (60.1 micromol/l, range 47.4-70.9). Patients were subsequently treated with (1) Fe(iv), (2) Fe(iv) and continuous 2 mg/min C(iv) throughout HD, (3) saline (S), and (4) S+C(iv). Plasma thiobarbituric acid reacting substances (TBARS) and vitamin C were assessed before, during and after FE(iv)(S), and 15, 30 and 60 min after infusion. RESULTS Fe(iv) induced a comparable rise in TBARS in patients with vitamin C deficiency (before Fe(iv), 1.9 micromol/l, range 1.4-1.9; after Fe(iv), 2.6 micromol/l, range 2.3-2.9; p < 0.01) and in those with normal vitamin C (before Fe(iv), 1.9 micromol/l, range 1.7-2.1; after Fe(iv), 2.6 micromol/l, range 2.5-2.9; p < 0.01). Fe(iv)+C(iv) resulted in a greater increase in TBARS (after Fe(iv), 3.1 micromol/l, range 2.8-3.2) compared with Fe(iv) (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION Iron sucrose-induced oxidative stress is comparable in HD patients with vitamin C deficiency and in those with normal vitamin C. We documented a pro-oxidative effect of vitamin C during Fe(iv)+C(iv) administration.

Abstract
Patients with advanced chronic renal disease (CRD) suffer from excessive morbidity and mortality due to complications of accelerated atherosclerosis. Approximately 90% of dialysis-dependent end stage renal disease patients suffer from anemia. Recombinant human erythropoietin (EPO) in combination with iron has become widely used to treat anemic CRD patients. While treatment with EPO results in improved quality of life it may also contribute to the development of atherosclerosis. Recent studies suggest that a reduction in nitric oxide (NO) availability may be linked to EPO-induced vascular dysfunction. Furthermore, CRD per se is thought to result in a state of NO deficiency. The present study suggests that EPO may exert proatherogenic activity by augmenting the cytokine-induced expression of monocyte-chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and by stimulating the proliferation of HUVECs and human vascular smooth muscle cells (HVSMCs). Augmentation of MCP-1 expression appears to be linked to EPO-induced downregulation of endothelial NO synthase (ecNOS). NO released from a series of synthetic donor compounds suppressed the EPO-mediated augmentation of cytokine-induced MCP-1 expression. In vitro studies revealed that EPO reduces ecNOS expression at both the protein and mRNA levels and that EPO also mediates a reduction in ecNOS enzymatic activity. These observations suggest potential mechanisms through which EPO may contribute to the development of accelerated atherosclerosis, particularly in the setting of CRD where NO availability may already be compromised.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In haemodialysis (HD) patients, advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) were previously ascribed to oxidized plasma proteins, resulting mainly from increased myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity. The aim of the present study was to assess the mechanisms leading to the generation of AOPP during the course of chronic kidney disease including end-stage renal disease, with particular focus on AOPP and MPO characterization in the plasma at decreasing levels of kidney function. METHODS Phagocyte activation was evaluated by whole blood NADPH oxidase and MPO activities. In plasma, MPO protein concentration was quantified by ELISA and catalytic activity assayed by the spectrophotometric detection of phenol and 4-aminoantipyrine (AAP) co-oxidation in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)). RESULTS In HD patients, plasma AOPP concentration was linked to neutrophil oxidative activity. Such an association was not found in control subjects or predialysis patients, suggesting that in the latter, AOPP generation did not mainly result from MPO released by activated neutrophils. Similarly, plasma AOPP correlated with plasma MPO protein concentration in HD patients, but not in control subjects or predialysis patients, suggesting that in the latter AOPP did not predominantly result from MPO activity. This interpretation was supported by the observation of a greater degree of co-oxidation of phenol and AAP in the absence of H(2)O(2) in predialysis patients than in HD patients or control subjects. The contribution of MPO dramatically differed between predialysis and HD patients (2+/-5 vs 46+/-6%; P<0.001). CONCLUSION Our observations suggest that AOPP generation in predialysis patients mainly results from MPO-independent oxidation mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are concerns about adverse vascular effects of intravenous iron by inducing oxidative stress. We therefore examined the effect of a single high dose of intravenous iron on endothelial function and biochemical markers of iron homeostasis. METHODS In a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, parallel-group study, forearm blood flow (FBF) was assessed by strain-gauge plethysmography in 38 peritoneal dialysis patients before and after a single intravenous infusion of 300 mg iron sucrose. RESULTS Iron infusion increased total (Delta 601 microg/100 mL, CI 507, 696) and non-transferrin-bound iron (Delta 237.2 micromol/L, CI 173.6, 300.8) approximately 10-fold, as well as redox-active iron nearly five-fold (Delta 0.76 micromol/L, CI 0.54, 0.98). After iron infusion basal FBF was 59% higher than after placebo. FBF response to acetylcholine before and after iron infusion was 263 +/- 32% and 310 +/- 33%, corresponding to 304 +/- 43% and 373 +/- 29% in the placebo group, respectively. Before and after iron or placebo infusion, glyceryl-trinitrate increased resting FBF to 232 +/- 22% and 258 +/- 21% in the iron group, and to 234 +/- 18% and 270 +/- 30% in the placebo group. L-N-monomethyl-arginine decreased FBF to 70 +/- 4% and 72 +/- 3% before and after iron, and to 74 +/- 4% and 73 +/- 4% before and after placebo infusions, respectively. Despite higher basal FBF after iron infusion, absolute and relative FBF changes in response to vasoactive substances were not significantly different between iron and placebo groups. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that 300 mg intravenous iron sucrose has a vasodilatory effect, but does not impair vascular reactivity in dialysis patients, despite a significant increase in non-transferrin-bound and redox-active iron.

Abstract
The role of elevated markers of oxidant stress needs to be established in longitudinal studies. Oxidant stress markers such as malonaldehyde (MDA), isoprostanes, and breath hydrocarbons warrant rigorous application to outcomes, if they are to be used as clinical parameters. For example, investigations of C-reactive protein (CRP), parathyroid hormone (PTH), and several other clinical indicators have shown that these markers can be used to predict outcomes such as morbidity and mortality. Long-term followup is needed for intervention studies with antioxidants, since effects with short-term studies may be focused on critically-ill individuals where intervention would not be expected to be effective. Oxidant stress studies in this population especially need a long-term approach to test the hypothesis that antioxidant intervention is beneficial.

Abstract
In patients with chronic renal failure undergoing regular hemodialysis (HD), oxidative stress is involved in the development of dialysis-related pathologies. The aim of the study was to measure the effect of HD treatment on the general antioxidative status of serum with special consideration of the specific oxidizability of lipids and proteins. Indicators for the oxidative/antioxidative status of plasma were monitored at the beginning and at the end of a dialysis session on the arterial and venous side of the dialyzer. A decrease in the antioxidant status was accompanied by an increased oxidizability of proteins as well as lipids during HD treatment. During the first passage of the dialyzer, the lag time of lipid oxidation decreased from 114.0+/-19.8 to 81.5+/-18.9 min, the lag time of protein oxidation decreased from 105.0+/-24.6 to 72.9+/-21.3 min and the total antioxidative status decreased from 518+/-24 to 252+/-124 microM trolox equivalents. The carbonyl content of serum proteins was high in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) (3.9+/-1.1 vs. 0.9+/-0.1 nmol/mg in controls) but did not change significantly during dialysis procedure. Our data demonstrate that the susceptibility of serum lipids and proteins to oxidative modification is severely increased by HD treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress may play a critical role in the vascular disease of end stage renal failure and hemodialysis patients. Studies, analyzing either discrete analytes and antioxidant substances, or the integrated total antioxidant activity of human plasma during hemodialysis, give contradictory results. METHODS Recently, we have introduced a new automated method for the determination of Total Antioxidant Capacity (TAC) of human plasma. We have serially measured TAC and corrected TAC (cTAC: after subtraction of the interactions due to endogenous uric acid, bilirubin and albumin) in 10 patients before the onset of the dialysis session, 10 min, 30 min, 1 h, 2 h and 3 h into the procedure and after completion of the session. RESULTS Our results indicate that TAC decreases, reaching minimum levels at 2 h. However, corrected TAC increases with t1/2 of about 30 min. We then repeated the measurements in 65 patients undergoing dialysis with different filters (36 patients with ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer resin filter -Eval-, 23 patients with two polysulfone filters -10 with F6 and 13 with PSN140-, and 6 patients with hemophan filters). Three specimens were collected (0, 30, 240 min). The results of this second group confirm our initial results, while no significant difference was observed using either filter. CONCLUSIONS Our results are discussed under the point of view of possible mechanisms of modification of endogenous antioxidants, and the interaction of lipid- and water-soluble antioxidants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between end-stage renal disease (ESRD), hemodialysis, and oxidative stress is controversial. To determine whether ESRD causes oxidative stress, we measured basal levels of plasma F2-isoprostanes as a marker of lipid peroxidation in vivo, and peroxynitrite-stimulated formation of F2-isoprostanes, as a marker of the oxidizibility of plasma lipids in vitro, before and after routine hemodialysis. METHODS Total plasma F2-isoprostanes were measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) before and after the oxidation of plasma lipids with the peroxynitrite-generating compound, 3-morpholino-sydnonimine (SIN-1), in 23 patients with ESRD patients undergoing regular hemodialysis, and 14 controls. Plasma vitamin E concentrations were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). RESULTS There was no difference in basal plasma concentrations of F2-isoprostanes in the ESRD group prior to hemodialysis, 246 +/- 20 pg/mL, compared to controls, 252 +/- 28 pg/mL, or immediately on completion of hemodialysis, 236 +/- 14 pg/mL. Incubation of control plasma with SIN-1 caused the formation of F2-isoprostanes with plasma concentrations increasing to 987 +/- 54 pg/mL at 6 hours. The formation of F2-isoprostanes stimulated by SIN-1 was markedly enhanced in the plasma obtained from patients undergoing hemodialysis at 1861 +/- 174 pg/mL, P < 0.001, and SIN-1-induced formation of F2-isoprostanes was further increased in plasma obtained immediately after hemodialysis at 2437 +/- 168 pg/mL, P < 0.001. Incubation of plasma with SIN-1 resulted in the net consumption of vitamin E. CONCLUSION Although basal plasma F2-isoprostanes were similar in patients with ESRD compared with controls, the presence of oxidative stress in patients with ESRD was unmasked when the plasma was stressed by peroxynitrite generated from SIN-1, and this was enhanced further by hemodialysis.

Abstract
In hemodialysis patients, oxidative stress results from an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species and antioxidant defense mechanisms. Recently, a new dialysis multi-layer membrane has been developed, by modifying the inner surface of regenerated cellulose to support a vitamin E coating. The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of hemodialysis treatment with vitamin E-modified membrane on anemia and erythropoietin requirement in a group of chronic uremic patients. Ten uremic, non diabetic, patients on standard bicarbonate dialysis were treated with vitamin E-bonded dialysis membrane for 12 months. Hematological parameters, erythropoietin requirement, serum vitamin E and serum malonyldialdehyde (MDA) were evaluated before starting the study and monthly. No significant changes in hemoglobin level, RBC count, hematocrit and EPO requirement were observed. Basal vitamin E levels were in the normal range (13.0 +/- 2.88 mg/L vs. 14.79 +/- 3.12 mg/L; NS). On the contrary, basal MDA levels were higher than those observed in the control group (1.87 +/- 0.36 vs. 1.13 +/- 0.18 mmol/mL; p < 0.01) and a significant decrease of MDA levels was found after 1 month of Excebrane treatment (1.39 +/- 0.25 nmol/mL; p < 0.02). In conclusion, the role of the "oxidative hemolysis" in the pathogenesis of anemia in CHD patients is still not clearly defined, but it could be of minor clinical relevance. Although the effectiveness of vitamin E-coated membranes as a scavenger of ROS allows a better control of intradialytic oxidative stress, it doesn't seem to contribute to clinical management of anemia in these patients.

Abstract
Ozonated autohemotherapy is used as a complementary medical approach in the treatment of vascular disorders. One of the greatest problems concerning an application of ozone in medicine is its induction of oxidative stress. The standards of ozonotherapy were elaborated recently making this treatment useful and probably non toxic. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of ozonated autohemotherapy on the oxidative stress extent in hemodialyzed patients, known to be particularly exposed to generation and deleterious effects of free radicals. Twelve continuously hemodialyzed subjects with atherosclerotic ischemia of the lower limbs were examined in a prospective, controlled, single blind study. Autohemotherapy with blood exposure to oxygen served as a control. The protein and lipid peroxidation products, the reduced glutathione level in red blood cells and free hemoglobin plasma concentration were measured. The study showed that ozonated autohemotherapy with ozone concentration 50 microg/ml per gram of blood induced a significant decrease in glutathione level after 9 sessions of this procedure. Therapy did not cause either the enhancement of protein and lipid peroxidation, or erythrocytes damage. It seems likely that the antioxidant defense system, part of which is glutathione, neutralizes oxidative properties of ozone in this concentration and protects against oxidative cell damage.

Abstract
This study investigated the supplementation with vitamin C or/and E on the antioxidant system in hemodialysis patients. Thirty-eight hemodialysis patients (27 males and 11 females) with the average of 60 years old were divided into four groups: placebo (400 mg starch/time), vitamin C (400 mg/time)-, vitamin E (400 mg d,l- alpha-tocopheryl acetate/time)-, and vitamin C (400 mg/time) + E (400 mg d,l- alpha-tocopheryl acetate/time)-supplemented groups for 6-week supplementation. The patients orally received three capsules of placebo or antioxidant(s) three times a week after finishing hemodialysis. Thirty-six healthy subjects (22 males and 14 females) with the average of 58 years old were recruited as the control group. Hemodialysis patients significantly decreased plasma vitamin C by 32%, erythrocyte glutathione by 26%, and plasma total antioxidant status by 9%, but increased plasma lipid peroxide levels by 102% compared with the control group at the baseline. The levels of plasma vitamin C and total antioxidant status significantly decreased by 24% and 18%, respectively, from the post-dialysate compared with those from the pre-dialysate. At week 6, vitamin C + E-supplemented group significantly increased plasma vitamin C and E, erythrocyte glutathione, and plasma antioxidant status, and inhibited plasma lipid peroxides compared with placebo group. Additionally, vitamin C + E-supplemented group had higher plasma vitamin C, vitamin E, and total antioxidant status, and lower plasma lipid peroxides than placebo group even at least 2 weeks after the termination of the supplements. Therefore, antioxidant vitamin supplements could improve antioxidant status and decrease lipid peroxides of hemodialysis patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Novel classification nomenclature defining the type of malnutrition by the root cause of the hypoalbuminenia has been developing in the literature since 1999. As the classification of malnutrition became more definite in the literature, the need to assess the type of malnutrition, thereby the root cause(s) and initiate appropriate intervention(s), has become apparent. METHODS In September 1999, San Diego Dialysis began a continuous quality improvement (CQI) project to assess the root causes of hypoalbuminemia for patients with serum albumin level <3.5 g/dL. An extensive review of the literature was conducted on the subject of malnutrition, inflammation, and the acute-phase reaction. FINDINGS Two major groups of patients emerged: those consuming adequate protein and calories, yet presenting with hypoalbuminemia, and those suffering from a protein calorie deficit. Observation of the second group showed that although the monthly percentage of patients with hypoalbuminemia remained fairly constant, the names on the list changed from month to month. CONCLUSIONS The CQI team developed a protocol and a unique nomenclature to classify the types of malnutrition, type I, type IIa, type IIb, or mixed, by adapting the definitions in the literature through clinical practice. Interventions were developed to address each classification of malnutrition.

Abstract
Peroxidation of the membrane lipid structure of red blood cell leads to haemolysis and anaemia in haemodialysis patients. Dietary constituents of antioxidant vitamins and trace elements may play an important role in protecting against oxidant damage. In this study, the effects of supplementation of vitamin C and zinc on osmotic fragility and lipid peroxidation of erythrocytes were investigated in 34 zinc-deficient haemodialysis patients. Sixteen sex- and age-matched normal volunteers acted as controls. Patients were randomized to receive vitamin C (250 mg day(-1)), zinc (20 mg day(-1)) or a placebo treatment for 3 months. The levels of vitamin C, zinc, malondialdehyde (MDA) and osmotic fragility were measured initially and 3 months after supplementation. Mean serum concentration of vitamin C and zinc increased significantly in the groups at the end of the respective study periods. Supplementation with vitamin C and zinc improved osmotic fragility, and decreased the level of MDA in the groups, but some side-effects (i.e. nausea, vomiting, fever, muscle pain, weakness) were observed during the zinc treatment. The results showed that the supplementation of both treatments decreased osmotic fragilty and MDA in zinc-deficient haemodialysis patients. However, vitamin C treatment was found to be safer than zinc supplementation.

Abstract
Excessive peroxidation of biomembranes is thought to contribute to the initiation and progression of numerous degenerative diseases. The present study examined the inhibitory effects of a cocoa extract, individual cocoa flavanols (-)-epicatechin and (+)-catechin, and procyanidin oligomers (dimer to decamer) isolated from cocoa on rat erythrocyte hemolysis. In vitro, the flavanols and the procyanidin oligomers exhibited dose-dependent protection against 2,2'-azo-bis (2-amidinopropane) dihydrochloride (AAPH)-induced erythrocyte hemolysis between concentrations of 2.5 and 40 microM. Dimer, trimer, and tetramer showed the strongest inhibitory effects at 10 microM, 59.4%, 66.2%, 70.9%; 20 microM, 84.1%, 87.6%, 81.0%; and 40 microM, 90.2%, 88.9%, 78.6%, respectively. In a subsequent experiment, male Sprague-Dawley rats (approximately 200 g; n = 5-6) were given a 100-mg intragastric dose of a cocoa extract. Blood was collected over a 4-hr time period. Epicatechin and catechin, and the dimers (-)-epicatechin-(4beta>8)-epicatechin (Dimer B2) and (-)-epicatechin-(4beta>6)-epicatechin (Dimer B5) were detected in the plasma with concentrations of 6.4 microM, and 217.6, 248.2, and 55.4 nM, respectively. Plasma antioxidant capacity (as measured by the total antioxidant potential [TRAP] assay) was elevated (P < 0.05) between 30 and 240 min following the cocoa extract feeding. Erythrocytes obtained from the cocoa extract-fed animals showed an enhanced resistance to hemolysis (P < 0.05). This enhanced resistance was also observed when erythrocytes from animals fed the cocoa extract were mixed with plasma obtained from animals given water only. Conversely, plasma obtained from rats given the cocoa extract improved the resistance of erythrocytes obtained from rats given water only. These results show cocoa flavanols and procyanidins can provide membrane protective effects.
