Exhaled 8-isoprostane in sarcoidosis: relation to superoxide anion production by bronchoalveolar lavage cells

Abstract: ObjectiveThis study was designed to examine the mutual relationship between 8-isoprostane in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) and superoxide anion generation by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) cells in patients with sarcoidosis.DesignAbout 29 patients with sarcoidosis, 34 healthy never smokers (control group for EBC) and 15 healthy never smokers (control group for BAL) were examined. EBC was collected directly before bronchoscopy. 8-Isoprostane was measured by ELISA, and superoxide anion by colorimetry.Resu… Show more

“…Elevated 8-isoprostane correlated with the percentage and number of eosinophils in BALF. In two further studies, 8-isoprostane was higher in those with stage III disease compared to stage I disease [12] and when comparing stage III disease against healthy controls [25]. No other significant difference was observed between radiological stages.…”

“…In contrast,Piotrowski et al (2007) (16) observed no such findings with respect to the percentage of lymphocytes in BALF, however, there was a trend of increasing 8-isoprostane with increasing radiological stage although this did not reach statistical significance. Elevated 8-isoprostane correlated with the percentage and number of eosinophils in BALF.…”
