Oxidative stress is a key feature in the Alzheimer's disease (AD)
brain and manifests as lipid peroxidation (LPO). Isoprostanes (iPs) are
specific and sensitive markers of in vivo LPO. To
determine whether amyloid (A ) deposition in vivo
is associated with increased LPO, we examined iP levels in a transgenic
mouse model (Tg2576) of AD amyloidosis. Urine, plasma, and brain
tissues were collected from Tg2576 and littermate wild-type (WT)
animals at different time points starting at 4 months of age and
continuing until 18 months of age. Levels of urinary
8,12-iso-iPF2 -VI were
higher in Tg2576 than in WT animals as early as 8 months of age and
remained this high for the rest of the study. A similar pattern was
observed for plasma levels of
8,12-iso-iPF2 -VI. Homogenates from
the cerebral cortex and hippocampus of Tg2576 mice had higher levels of
8,12-iso-iPF2 -VI than those from WT mice
starting at 8 months of age. In contrast, a surge of A 1-40 and
1-42 levels as well as A deposits in Tg2576 mouse brains occurred
later, at 12 months of age. A direct correlation was observed between brain 8,12-iso-iPF2 -VI and A 1-40 and
1-42. Because LPO precedes amyloid plaque formation in Tg2576 mice,
this suggests that brain oxidative damage contributes to AD
pathogenesis before A accumulation in the AD brain.
Key words:
