Biochemical oxidative stress-related markers in patients with obstructive sleep apnea

Abstract: SummaryBackgroundObstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a condition contributing to oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to ascertain if there is any connection between OSA and novel oxidative stress-related markers. Matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 (MMP-2, MMP-9), high sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP), pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A), soluble receptors for advanced glycation end-products (sRAGE), zinc (Zn) and copper (Cu) were measured. Further biochemical markers were evaluated.Material/… Show more

“…In agreement with Tazaki, Ye, Feng and Volna [9,32,35,41], we observed in the whole group of OSAS subjects a positive correlation between MMP-9 and AHI, and between MMP-9 and ODI and also a negative correlation between MMP-9 and mSO 2 . In this study no significant correlation among MMP-2, TIMP-1, TIMP-2 and polysomnographic parameters was demonstrated.…”

“…As well as the hypoxic stress induced by OSAS promotes the synthesis of inflammatory mediators [31,35] involved in the development and the progression of the atherosclerotic disease, similarly the hypoxic stress seems to be able to modify the pattern of MMPs and TIMPs itself.…”

“…These abnormal respiratory events lead to hypoxia and reoxygenation cycles which eventually results in oxidative stress. Oxidative stress gives rise the production of reactive oxygen species which may regulate MMP levels in various cells and in vitro systems (21). MMP-9 is suggested to be a strong predictor of oxidative stress in OSA patients (21).…”

MMP-9 is suggested to be a strong predictor of oxidative stress in OSA patients (21). Thus, reactive oxygen species produced during oxidative stress may contribute to elevated levels and activity of MMP-9 in patients with OSAS.…”
