Popis: | Increased oxidative stress has been implicated in both the onset and the progression of diabetes mellitus and its complications. The development of easy to measure biomarkers of oxidative stress would, therefore, help in determining in a prospective manner the impact of glycemic control on oxidative stress and macrovascular disease in patients with diabetes. We report the development and validation of a novel method to directly measure the urinary concentrations of the conjugated metabolites of vitamin E (α-tocopherol) and investigate whether the oxidized metabolite α-tocopheronolactone (α-TL) could be used as a biomarker of oxidative stress in children with type 1 diabetes. A novel method using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry was developed and used to measure directly and rapidly the urinary concentrations of the glucuronidated and sulfated metabolites of α-tocopherol in 32 young patients with type 1 diabetes and age-matched controls. The mean concentrations of the glucuronidated and sulfated conjugates of α-TL were all highly significantly increased in the children with type 1 diabetes (p Highlights ► A novel method was developed for measuring urinary conjugated vitamin E metabolites. ► α-Tocopheronolactone concentrations are highly significantly increased in diabetes. ► α-Tocopheronolactone is a potential biomarker of oxidative stress. |
