Fasting and postprandial glycoxidative and lipoxidative stress are increased in women with type 2 diabetes mellitus
1Endocrinology t.teerlink{at}vumc.nl ABSTRACT
Objective: We studied acute changes in markers of glycoxidative and lipoxidative stress, including oxidized low-density-lipoprotein, N Research Design and Methods: Post-menopausal women (27 with normal glucose metabolism [NGM]; 26 with type 2 diabetes [DM2]), received two consecutive fat-rich meals and two consecutive carbohydrate-rich meals on two occasions. Glucose and triglyceride concentrations were measured at baseline and 1,2,4,6 and 8h following breakfast; lunch was given at 4h. Oxidized-LDL-to-LDL-cholesterol ratio (oxLDL/LDL-C), CEL, CML and 3DG were measured at baseline and at 8h. Results: Fasting oxLDL/LDL-C, 3DG and CML were higher in women with DM2 compared to women with NGM and were comparable to the postprandial values at 8 hours in NGM. Postprandial rises in oxLDL/LDL-C and 3DG were similar in both groups. However, oxLDL/LDL-C increased more after the fat-rich meals, whereas CML and 3DG increased more after the carbohydrate-rich meals. After the fat-rich meals, the increase in oxLDL/LDL-C was correlated with postprandial triglycerides, whereas the increase in 3DG was correlated with postprandial glucose. Conclusions: The acute changes in markers of glycoxidative and lipoxidative stress in both DM2 and NGM suggest that post-absorptive oxidative stress may partly underlie the association of postprandial derangements and cardiovascular risk.
