AIM: The purpose of this study is to examine whether or not there is a relationship between glycoxidation and lipid peroxidation in patients with chronic renal failure. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Dermal samples from 26 living or autopsied subjects were sequentially extracted with NaCl, pepsin, collagenase, and NaOH to obtain four fractions (salt-soluble fraction: SSF; pepsin-soluble fraction: PSF; collagenase-soluble fraction: CSF; and insoluble fraction: ISF). The glycoxidation product was measured by pentosidine-linked fluorescence (ex: 335/em: 385) and the levels of lipid peroxide, malondialdehyde (MDA), were assessed by determining the MDA-linked fluorescence (ex: 390/em: 460) which was further confirmed by HPLC. RESULTS: In patients undergoing hemodialysis, MDA-linked fluorescence markedly increased in collagen-rich fractions, PSF, CSF, and ISF, while pentosidine-linked fluorescence increased in PSF and CSF, in comparison to the controls and the pre-dialysis patients with CRF. Interestingly, the increase in the lipid peroxides strongly correlated with the level of glycoxidation product in PSF, CSF, and ISF (p < 0.0001 in PSF, CSF; p < 0.01 in ISF). The HPLC data of MDA in the PSF was in good correlation with logistic levels of both MDA- (n = 9, r = 0.738, p = 0.023) and pentosidine-linked fluorescence (n = 9, r = 0.721, p = 0.028). In contrast, in SSF, the collagen-poor fraction (collagen content: less than 3% of the total extracted collagen), the data showed a significant increase in the MDA-linked fluorescence only in the pre-dialysis patients with CRF, but not in the HD patients with no correlation with the glycoxidation products. CONCLUSION: These findings suggest that both the lipid peroxidation and glycoxidation increased in close relation to each other in the matrix collagen and thus demonstrate a synergetic contribution to the tissue damage observed in patients with CRF
