Transient release of lipid peroxides after coronary artery balloon angioplasty.

Free radical production may cause myocardial damage during reperfusion of ischaemic myocardial tissue; when free radicals interact with polyunsaturated fatty acids or their esters, lipid peroxides are produced. A product of lipid peroxidation, malondialdehyde, was measured in 10 subjects with stable angina who underwent angioplasty of a proximal high-grade stenosis (over 90%) of the left anterior descending coronary artery. In all subjects the duration of balloon occlusion was 60 s. Blood was withdrawn from the great cardiac vein immediately before balloon inflation (T0), immediately after balloon deflation (T60), 15 s after balloon deflation (T75), and 1 min after balloon deflation (T120). There was a significant increase in malondialdehyde at T60 compared with T0 for the first balloon inflation (mean increase 0.3 mumol/l [95% confidence limits 0.1, 0.5]), and at both T60 (0.31 mumol/l [0.15, 0.47]) and T75 (0.22 mumol/l [0.04, 0.40]) for the second balloon inflation. This model could be used to assess antioxidant effects of drugs.[1]
