Background Reversible antioxidant depletion is found in hyperthyroid humans, and antioxidant depletion increases the risk of methimazole toxicosis in rats. Objectives To determine whether abnormalities in concentrations of blood antioxidants or urinary isoprostanes were present in hyperthyroid cats, and were reversible after radioiodine treatment. To determine whether or not antioxidant abnormalities were associated with idiosyncratic methimazole toxicosis. Animals Hyperthyroid cats presented for radioiodine treatment (n=44) and healthy mature adult control cats (n=37). Methods Prospective, controlled, observational study. Red blood cell glutathione (GSH), plasma ascorbate (AA), plasma free retinol (vitamin A), a-tocopherol (vitamin E), and urinary free 8-isoprostanes in hyperthyroid cats were compared to healthy cats and to hyperthyroid cats 2months after treatment. Results Blood antioxidants were not significantly different in hyperthyroid cats (mean GSH 1.6 +/- 0.3mM; AA 12.8 +/- 4.9 mu M, and vitamin E, 25 +/- 14 mu g/mL) compared to controls (GSH 1.4 +/- 0.4mM; AA 15.0 +/- 6.6 mu M, and vitamin E, 25 +/- 17 mu g/mL). Urinary isoprostanes were increased in hyperthyroid cats (292 +/- 211pg/mg creatinine) compared to controls (169 +/- 82pg/mg; P=.006), particularly in hyperthyroid cats with a USG
