BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: High oxygen consumption and high polyunsaturated fatty acid content in the brain may render it vulnerable to oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. We report the role of these parameters in tuberculous meningitis (TBM) patients with seizures and correlate these with clinical radiological, and laboratory findings.
METHODS: Serum oxidative stress markers ; Catalase, Superoxide dismutase (SOD), Glutathione (GSH), Protein-carbonyl, Malonaldehyde (MDA) were measured using spectrophotometer and ER stress markers-ATF4, CHOP, XBP1 and GRP-78 using RT-PCR in TBM patients, 29 with seizures, 20 without seizures and 20 matched controls. In 10 patients, sequential estimation of oxidative stress and ER stress markers was also measured.
RESULTS: In comparison to controls, TBM patients had significant difference in the expression of oxidative stress and ER stress markers. Serum MDA (P=0.02), protein-carbonyl (P < 0.01) were significantly higher and SOD (P=0.02) and GSH (P < 0.01) significantly lower in the patients with seizures compared to those without seizures. The ER stress markers were insignificantly elevated in TBM patients with seizures. On sequential evaluation, oxidative stress and ER stress markers increased following seizures and returned to baseline at the time of discharge.
CONCLUSION: The results suggest some role of oxidative stress and ER stress in TBM, but do not predict its outcome.
