How stable is oxidative stress level? An observational study of intra- and inter-individual variability in urinary oxidative stress biomarkers of DNA, proteins, and lipids in healthy individuals.

ABSTRACT: Oxidative stress in humans is affected by the health and nutritional status as well as exposure to external environmental factors. To evaluate the effects of external factors, an assessment of baseline levels as well as diurnal variations in oxidative stress status of healthy individuals is needed. In this study, we examined intra- and inter-individual variability of oxidative stress biomarkers (OSBs) of lipids (malondialdehyde [MDA] and four F2-isoprostane isomers, namely, 8-isoprostaglandinF2? [8-PGF2?], 11?-prostaglandinF2? [11-PGF2?], 15(R)-prostaglandinF2? [15-PGF2?], and 8-iso,15(R)-prostaglandinF2? [8,15-PGF2?]); proteins (o,o'-dityrosine [diY]); and DNA (8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine [8-OHdG]) in urine from healthy individuals. The significance of creatinine correction, which is typically used to account for urinary dilution, on OSB concentrations was evaluated. Analysis of 515 urine samples, collected longitudinally from 19 healthy individuals daily for over a month, showed inter-individual coefficient of variation (CV) in concentrations from 112% for MDA to 272% for 15-PGF2?. Intra-individual CV in concentrations ranged from 29% for 8-OHdG to 149% for 15-PGF2?. MDA was the most abundant OSB found in urine. The intra- and inter-individual variability in F2-isoprostane concentrations were higher than the values calculated for diY, 8-OHdG, and MDA. All seven OSB concentrations were significantly correlated with each other and with creatinine. Creatinine normalization of OSB concentrations improved predictability in OSB concentrations over time. Our results suggest that 8-OHdG, showing the highest ICC (0.96), yielded more reproducible measurements with a low CV, and is the most suitable biomarker of OSB in spot urine samples. The measured concentrations and diurnal variability in urinary OSB levels in healthy individuals reported in this study are useful as a benchmark for future toxicological and epidemiological studies.

Project description:The reproducibility of urinary phthalate metabolite concentrations has not been well characterized in non-pregnant women of reproductive age. Our primary study objectives were to describe the distribution of urinary phthalate metabolites concentrations among a population of Hmong women of reproductive age, and to evaluate intra- and inter-individual variability of phthalate metabolite concentrations. Ten phthalate metabolites were measured in first-morning urine samples collected from 45 women and 20 of their spouses, who were members of the Fox River Environment and Diet Study cohort in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Repeated first-morning urine samples were collected and analyzed from 25 women, who provided up to three samples over approximately 1 month. Measurement variability was assessed using intraclass correlations (ICCs) and surrogate category analysis. Linear mixed models were used to evaluate the associations between participant characteristics and phthalate metabolite concentrations. Nine of the 10 phthalate metabolites were detected in >80% of all analyzed samples, of which seven were detected in all samples. As a measure of reliability, ICCs were strongest for monobenzyl phthalate (0.64) and weakest for the metabolites of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) (ranging from 0.13 to 0.22). Similarly, surrogate category analysis suggested that a single urine sample characterized an average 1-month exposure with reasonable accuracy across low, medium and high tertiles for all metabolites, except the DEHP metabolites. Geometric mean concentrations of monoethyl phthalate increased with age, but patterns by education, income, body mass index, environmental tobacco smoke or season were not observed when measures were adjusted for urinary dilution. Our results suggest that the participant characteristics assessed in this study have limited influence on inter-individual variability of phthalate metabolite concentrations. With regard to intra-individual variability, our results suggest that urinary concentrations of some phthalate metabolites are more reproducible over time and are less subjected to exposure misclassification than others (e.g., metabolites of DEHP).
