DHA dose-dependently reduces atherosclerosis: a putative role for its peroxidation metabolites, F4-Neuroprostanes
International audience
La teneur hépatique en F4-Neuroprostanes : une variable prédictive majeure de la réduction de la plaque d’athérome
Le fichier annexe contient le livre des résumés; Les propriétés athéroprotectrices des acides gras polyinsaturés de type n-3 à longue chaîne (AGPI n-3 LC), et en particulier de l’acide docosahexaénoique (DHA) ont été largement décrites. Néanmoins, les mécanismes d’action restent encore mal connus. Les recherches se sont récemment orientées vers l’identification des métabolites oxygénés issus des AGPI n-3 LC qui sont de plus en plus considérés comme des effecteurs majeurs de leurs effets athéroprotecteurs. Dans ce contexte, une étude dose-réponse de supplémentation en DHA a été réalisée chez un modèle animal d’athérosclérose (souris LDLR-/-) afin d’étudier les relations entre la progression …
The paradox of omega 3 PUFAs: autoprotection although highly susceptible to peroxidation

Reliable determination of new lipid peroxidation compounds as potential early Alzheimer Disease biomarkers.
Lipid peroxidation plays an important role in Alzheimer Disease, so corresponding metabolites found in urine samples could be potential biomarkers. The aim of this work is to develop a reliable ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analytical method to determine a new set of lipid peroxidation compounds in urine samples. Excellent sensitivity was achieved with limits of detection between 0.08 and 17 nmol L-1, which renders this method suitable to monitor analytes concentrations in real samples. The method's precision was satisfactory with coefficients of variation around 5-17% (infra-day) and 8-19% (inter-day). The accuracy of the method was assessed by analysis o…
Does Pasteurized Donor Human Milk Efficiently Protect Preterm Infants Against Oxidative Stress?
International audience; Pasteurized donor human milk (DHM) is the preferred alternative for infant nutrition when own mother's milk (OMM) is unavailable. Whether DHM is an efficient means for protecting preterm infants from oxidative stress remains unknown. We quantified a panel of oxidative stress biomarkers in urine samples from preterm infants (≤32 weeks of gestation and a birth weight ≤1500 g) receiving ≥80% of feeding volume as either DHM or OMM. The noninvasive in vivo assessment of oxidative stress showed no statistically significant difference between both groups at the time when full enteral nutrition (150 mL/kg body weight) was achieved and until hospital discharge. In addition, t…
Analysis of Lipid Peroxidation by UPLC-MS/MS and Retinoprotective Effects of the Natural Polyphenol Pterostilbene
The loss of redox homeostasis induced by hyperglycemia is an early sign and key factor in the development of diabetic retinopathy. Due to the high level of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, diabetic retina is highly susceptible to lipid peroxidation, source of pathophysiological alterations in diabetic retinopathy. Previous studies have shown that pterostilbene, a natural antioxidant polyphenol, is an effective therapy against diabetic retinopathy development, although its protective effects on lipid peroxidation are not well known. Plasma, urine and retinas from diabetic rabbits, control and diabetic rabbits treated daily with pterostilbene were analyzed. Lipid peroxidation was evalu…
Lipid profiling following intake of the Omega 3 fatty acid DHA identifies the peroxidized metabolites F-4-Neuroprostanes as the best predictors of atherosclerosis prevention
International audience; The anti-atherogenic effects of omega 3 fatty acids, namely eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acids (DHA) are well recognized but the impact of dietary intake on bioactive lipid mediat or profiles remains unclear. Such a profiling effort may offer novel targets for future studies into the mechanism of action of omega 3 fatty acids. The present study aimed to determine the impact of DHA supplementation on the profiles of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) oxygenated metabolites and to investigate their contribution to therosclerosis prevention. A special emphasis was given to the non-enzymatic metabolites knowing the high susceptibility of DHA to free radical…
