Racial Differences in Urinary F2‐Isoprostane Levels and the Cross‐Sectional Association With bmi

Levels of four urinary F2‐isoprostanes (F2‐IsoPs) were examined in a large sample of the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study (IRAS) multiethnic cohort: 237 African Americans (AAs), 342 non‐Hispanic whites (NHWs), and 275 Hispanic whites (HWs). F2‐IsoP isomers — iPF2a‐III, 2,3‐dinor‐iPF2a‐III, i...

Zusammenfassung:Levels of four urinary F2‐isoprostanes (F2‐IsoPs) were examined in a large sample of the Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Study (IRAS) multiethnic cohort: 237 African Americans (AAs), 342 non‐Hispanic whites (NHWs), and 275 Hispanic whites (HWs). F2‐IsoP isomers — iPF2a‐III, 2,3‐dinor‐iPF2a‐III, iPF2a‐VI, and 8,12‐iso‐iPF2a‐VI — were measured in 854 urine samples using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry detection. In AAs, levels of all four F2‐IsoPs were lower compared with NHWs and HWs (P values 0.2), and positive associations among whites (P values
