Abstract

BackgroundFree radical–induced oxidative damage is thought to be involved in the pathogenesis of diseases associated with cigarette smoking. We examined the production of 8-epi-prostaglandin (PG) F2α, a stable product of lipid peroxidation in vivo, and its modulation by aspirin and antioxidant vitamins in chronic cigarette smokers.Methods and ResultsWe performed the following studies: (1) a cross-sectional comparison of smokers and control subjects, (2) an examination of the dose-response relationship, (3) an exploration of the effect of smoking cessation (3 weeks) and nicotine patch supplementation, (4) the effect of aspirin consumption, and (5) the effects of 5 days’ dosing with vitamin E (100 and 800 U), vitamin C (2 g), and their combination. 8-epi-PGF2αexcretion (in pmol/mmol, mean±SEM) was 176.5±30.6 in heavy smokers, 92.7±4.8 (P<.05) in moderate smokers, and 54.1±2.7 (P<.005) in nonsmokers. Urinary levels fell from 145.5±24.9 to 114.6±27.1 (week 2,P<.05) and 112.6±24.9 (week 3,P<.05) on cessation of smoking. Aspirin treatment failed to suppress urinary levels of 8-epi-PGF2αdespite a significant reduction in urinary 11-dehydro-TxB2production and suppression of 8-epi-PGF2αand TxB2in serum. Vitamin C (pre, 194.6±40.9; post, 137.2±34.1;P<.05) and a combination of vitamin C and E (pre, 171.0±39.8; post, 133.5±29.6;P<.05) suppressed urinary 8-epi-PGF2α, whereas vitamin E alone had no effect.ConclusionsUrinary 8-epi-PGF2αmay represent a noninvasive, quantitative index of oxidant stress in vivo. Elevated levels of 8-epi-PGF2αin smokers may be modulated by quitting cigarettes and switching to nicotine patches or by antioxidant vitamin therapy.
