Analysis of oxidative stress expressed by urinary level of biopyrrins and 8‐hydroxydeoxyguanosine in patients with chronic schizophrenia

Abstract: Aims:Previous studies have supported the claim that psychological stress induces the production of reactive oxygen species. Several authors have suggested that patients with psychiatric disorders show high levels of oxidative stress markers. We examined different oxidative stress markers in patients with chronic schizophrenia.Methods: This study included 29 patients with chronic schizophrenia and 30 healthy volunteers. The concentration of urinary biopyrrins and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), as measured by… Show more

“…No significant difference was observed in 8OHdG levels (P ¼ 0.26). In patients with chronic schizophrenia, a recent report has shown an increase in the UBP level, but no increase in the urinary 8OHdG level [30]. This finding suggests that patients with chronic schizophrenia are under a certain kind of oxidative stress, and our results also suggest that the UBP level is more associated with school stress than the 8OHdG level.…”

“…Biopyrrins were found to be correlated with rating scores 69,71 and response to treatment, 70 as well as the duration of the disorder. 71 The variation in the oxidative metabolism of bilirubin logically indicates the differences in the antioxidant activity of the molecule. However, this could mean the increased recruitment of healthy antioxidant defenses or be the result of compensation by the UCB-ROS buffer system, as previously discussed.…”

“…Miyaoka et al 71 published an article in which the urinary BOMs of 29 patients with schizophrenia (DSM-IV-TR) were compared with those of 30 healthy controls. The mean levels of urinary BOMs in patients with schizophrenia and normal controls were 1.51 ± 0.74 and 1.11 ± 0.54 μmol/g creatinine, respectively; the mean levels of urinary BOMs in patients with schizophrenia were significantly higher than those of the control subjects (P = 0.019).…”

“…The level of urinary 8-OHdG was measured with a MICRO Plate READER Model 680 (Bio-Rad Laboratories Inc., Hercules, CA, USA) by using an 8-OHdG Check ELISA kit, which contains the anti-8-OHdG monoclonal antibody N45.1 (Japan Institute for the Control of Aging). 14 The results of 8-OHdG were corrected for the urinary concentration of creatinine, which was determined with an Accuras Auto CRE (Shino test).…”
