Changes in malondialdehyde levels in bronchoalveolar fluid and serum by the treatment of asthma with inhaled steroid and beta2‐agonist

Abstract: Although treatment with beta2-agonist and corticosteroid inhalers for the duration of 1 month reduced lipid peroxidation significantly, it was still at a level significantly higher than healthy controls. The treatment may need a longer duration to improve lipid peroxidation or an alternative regimen which is more effective in controlling inflammation may be warranted.

“…Elevated levels of oxidative stress markers such as H 2 O 2 , 8-isoprostane, nitric oxide, and carbon monoxide were reported in exhaled air of asthmatic patients [204]. Increased MDA levels, and Protein carbonyls; decreased protein sulfhydryl and antioxidant activity were observed in plasma, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and exhaled air of asthamatic patients [207][208][209].…”

“…MDA was derived from TBARS to form the MDA-TBARS product, which was measured spectrophotometrically. 22 Statistical analysis Data were analyzed using SPSS for Windows Statistical Package (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). Summary statistics of data were expressed as mean±s.d., median and range.…”

“…Thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) measure the concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA), an end product of the oxidation and decomposition of polyunsaturated fatty acids containing three or more double bonds. Elevated MDA levels have been observed in both plasma [34][35][36][37] and breath condensate in asthmatics [38]. Ethane is produced following lipid peroxidation of n-3 fatty acids and elevated ethane levels have been reported in breath condensate of asthmatics [39].…”
