BACKGROUND: Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune thyroiditis, also referred to as Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), and several biomarkers have been measured to evaluate the impact and clinical relevance of oxidative stress in this setting. Recently, advanced glycation end products (AGEs) have been proposed as reliable markers of oxidative stress in HT. In the present study, we investigated the relationship of AGEs with antioxidant paraoxonase (PON-1) activity as potential combined markers of oxidative stress.
METHODS: We measured the levels of AGEs, and advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) and PON-1 activity by spectrophotometric methods, in the serum of 40 HT patients (36 F; mean age 35.4±11.5 year) and 38 age-, sex- and BMI-matched healthy controls. All subjects were euthyroid at recruitment and none was on LT-4 therapy.
RESULTS: Serum levels of AGEs were significantly higher (median 378 vs 290 AU/g protein; P<0.001), while PON1 activity was significantly lower (median 165 vs. 201 U/L; P<0.05) in HT patients compared to controls: the two parameters were inversely correlated (P<0.01), clearly indicating a pro-oxidant imbalance in HT patients. At stepwise regression analysis, TPOAb positivity was an independent predictor of both PON-1 activity (P=0.002) and AGEs levels (P=0.000).
CONCLUSIONS: Increased formation and accumulation of AGEs contribute to enhanced oxidative stress, along with a decrease in PON-1 activity in HT. As a consequence, AGEs levels and alteration in PON 1 may serve as useful markers for monitoring the levels of oxidative stress in this disorder.
