We read with great interest the article by Dr Lorenzano et al1 dealing with the relationship between oxidative stress and infarct growth (IG) in patients with of acute ischemic stroke. The infarct volume was evaluated by diffusion-weighed magnetic resonance imaging or computed tomographic scan methods. The results of their study demonstrated that baseline of plasma F2 isoproatane (F2-isoP), a biomarker of oxidative stress–induced lipid peroxidation, significantly correlated with both IG within 9 hours of symptom onset and final infarct volume. In addition, the authors showed that, in the multivariate regression models, elevated hyperacute plasma F2-isoP might predict the occurrence of IG and IG volume. The authors proposed that measuring plasma F2-isoP might be helpful in the acute setting to stratify patients with acute ischemic stroke for relative severity of ischemic injury and expected progression.Evidence indicates that impaired endothelial function may strongly be related to acute ischemic stroke. Willmot et al2 demonstrated that in a systemic review of 25 studies about the effects of nitric oxide donors and L-arginine in experimental stroke, the administration of nitric oxide donors significantly reduced total cerebral infarct volume both in permanent and transient models of ischemia. The finding strongly suggests that endothelial function might have a crucial role in preventing the progression of stroke. However, it has been demonstrated that levels of plasma 8-isoprostane levels were inversely correlated with flow-mediated dilatation of the brachial artery (a clinical index of endothelial function) in subjects with resistant hypertension. 3 Cherneva et al4 also observed that urinary isoprostanes were inversely correlated with flow-mediated dilatation in patients with obstructive sleep apnea. In a study presented previously, we showed that plasma F2-isoP levels were inversely correlated with plasma nitric oxide metabolite concentration in normotensive and hypertensive
