Impaired antioxidant defenses are implicated in neurodegenerative disease. Plasma levels of urate, a water soluble antioxidant, are reduced in Alzheimer's disease (AD). To test the hypotheses that high plasma urate at baseline is associated with: (1) reduced rate of conversion from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to AD and (2) reduced rate of cognitive decline in MCI. Plasma urate was obtained at baseline from 747 participants in a three year, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of donepezil, vitamin E, or placebo for delaying progression of MCI to AD. The association between baseline urate and conversion from MCI to AD was examined by Cox proportional hazards regression. The association of baseline urate with cognitive change in the cognitive subscale of the Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale (ADAS-cog) was examined by longitudinal analysis. Baseline plasma urate was not associated with rate of conversion of MCI to AD. In the placebo arm, high plasma urate was associated with a slower rate of cognitive decline over 3 years, although this was not reproduced in the other treatment arms. While plasma urate levels did not predict progression of MCI to AD, high urate may be associated with a reduce rate of cognitive decline in MCI patients not treated with donepezil or vitamin E. The results support investigation of biomarkers of antioxidant status as risk factors for cognitive decline in MCI.
