ADMA and oxidative stress are responsible for endothelial dysfunction in hyperhomocyst(e)inemia : effects of L-arginine and B vitamins

Hyperhomocyst(e)inemia is a risk factor for atherosclerotic vascular disease, and it is associated with endothelial dysfunction. Mechanisms responsible for endothelial dysfunction in hyperhomocyst(e)inemia may involve impaired bioavailability of NO, possibly secondary to accumulation of the endogeno...

description Hyperhomocyst(e)inemia is a risk factor for atherosclerotic vascular disease, and it is associated with endothelial dysfunction. Mechanisms responsible for endothelial dysfunction in hyperhomocyst(e)inemia may involve impaired bioavailability of NO, possibly secondary to accumulation of the endogenous NO synthase inhibitor asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) and increased oxidative stress. We investigated whether oral treatment with B vitamins or L-arginine normalizes endothelium-dependent, flow-dependent vasodilation (FDD) in patients with peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) and hyperhomocyst(e)inemia. 27 patients with PAOD and hyperhomocyst(e)inemia were assigned to oral treatment with combined B vitamins (folate, 10 mg; vitamin B-12, 200 microg; vitamin B-6, 20 mg/day), L-arginine (24 g/day) or placebo, for 8 weeks in a double-blind fashion. FDD was determined by high-resolution ultrasound in the radial artery. Vitamin B supplementation significantly lowered plasma homocyst(e)ine concentration from 15.8+/-1.8 to 8.7+/-1.1 micromol/l (P

Vitamin B supplementation significantly lowered plasma homocyst(e)ine concentration from 15.8+/-1.8 to 8.7+/-1.1 micromol/l (P&lt;0.01). However, B vitamins had no significant effect on FDD (baseline, 7.8+/-0.7%, B vitamins, 8.3+/-0.9%, placebo 8.9+/-0.7%; P=n.s.). In contrast, L-arginine treatment did not affect homocyst(e)ine levels, but significantly improved FDD (10.2+/-0.2%), probably by antagonizing the impact of elevated ADMA concentration (3.8+/-0.3 micromol/l) and reducing the oxidative stress by lowering urinary 8-iso-prostaglandin F(2alpha) (baseline, 76.3+/-7.1 vs. 62.7+/-8.3 pmol/mmol creatinine after 8 weeks). Oral supplementation with combined B vitamins during 8 weeks does not improve endothelium-dependent vasodilation in PAOD patients with hyperhomocyst(e)inemia, whereas L-arginine significantly improved endothelial function in these patients. Thus, accumulation of ADMA and increased oxidative stress may underlie endothelial dysfunction under hyperhomocyst(e)inemic conditions. These findings may have importance for evaluation of homocyst(e)ine-lowering therapy.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0008-6363</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1755-3245</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/S0008-6363(02)00617-X</identifier><identifier>PMID: 12504835</identifier><identifier>CODEN: CVREAU</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Oxford: Oxford University Press</publisher><subject>Aged ; Analysis of Variance ; Arginine - analogs &amp; derivatives ; Arginine - blood ; Arginine - therapeutic use ; Arterial Occlusive Diseases - blood ; Arterial Occlusive Diseases - drug therapy ; Atherosclerosis (general aspects, experimental research) ; Biological and medical sciences ; Blood and lymphatic vessels ; Cardiology.
