Atherothrombosis and oxidative stress: the connection and correlation in diabetes

Abstract: This study provides not only evidence of a correlation between oxidative stress level and fibrinolysis in diabetes, but also an explanation of why previous studies have found both hypo- or hyperfibrinolysis associated with diabetes.

“…It is therefore involved in coagulation pathways [44] D-Dimer is an indicator of coagulation activity, since it is the product of the enzymatic degradation of fibrin, a process called fibrinolysis [45]. Both increased and decreased levels have so far been reported in diabetes mellitus patients [46]. Our results showed that there is a trend towards elevated C5a and D-Dimer levels in the prediabetic subjects, which indicates that there probably is a slightly increased coagulation activity already in the prediabetic state, leading the way for future cardiovascular complications.…”

“…The excessive production of ROS may result in oxidative damage to many large biomolecules, such as lipids, DNA, and proteins [2]. Oxidative stress has been linked with the pathogenesis of many human diseases including alcoholic liver disease, aging, and diabetes [3]. There is growing interest in the use of natural antioxidants for expanding the shelf life of food without the need for synthetic antioxidants, such as butylates hydroxyanisole (BHA), butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and tertiary butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ).…”

“…The decrease in GSH observed closer to the onset of T2DM is due to the activity of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and thrombin-activated fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI), followed by an increase in erythrocyte GSH levels associated with erythrocyte oxidative stress [23,24,27]. However, during T2DM disease progression, the physiological response to GSH synthesis/ regeneration is overwhelmed by continued oxidative stress due to free radical activity, which leads eventually to a decrease in GSH concentration and an increase in D-dimer levels [23,27].…”

“…D-dimer is a product of fibrin degradation and its level has been related to lower levels of reduced glutathione (GSH) [23,24,27]. An increase in oxidative stress first leads to a depletion in GSH followed by a rebound increase [28].…”
