Abstract

Quantitative and qualitative analyses of 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-phosphatidylcholine monohydroperoxide [PC 16:0/18:2-OOH] and 1-stearoyl-2-linoleoyl-phosphatidylcholine monohydroperoxide [PC 18:0/18:2-OOH] in human plasma were improved by chemiluminescence HPLC using synthetic 1-stearoyl-2-erucoyl-phosphatidylcholine monohydroperoxide (PC 18:0/22:1-OOH) as internal standard. The calibration curves of synthetic PC 16:0/18:2-OOH and PC 18:0/18:2-OOH, obtained by their direct injections with the IS into the HPLC system, were linear throughout the calibration range (10–1000 pmol). Within-day and between-day coefficients of variation were below 8%, and the recoveries were between 84% and 101%. Plasma concentrations of PC 16:0/18:2-OOH and PC 18:0/18:2-OOH were 102 ± 59 nM (mean ± SD) and 36 ± 20 nM, respectively, in the 33 healthy volunteers. The present method might help understanding incompletely understood pathway of plasma phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxides.
