homocysteine; methionine loading test; oxidative stress; platelet activation; history of early-onset thrombosis
Background: methionine ingestion (100 mg/kg) identifies subjects in whom fasting total homocysteine (tHcy) may be normal but the post-methionine load (PML) tHcy is abnormally high. Methods: In 96 subjects [ 54 M/42 F, 40.4 +/- 12.3 yrs old; 28 with the 68 bp844 ins of the Cystathionine-beta-synthase gene (CBSins+); 20 homozygotes for the C677T mutation of the methylene-tetrahydrofolate reductase gene (MTHFR++); 13 with the combination of the two, and 35 without any of them], we have evaluated in vivo oxidative stress and platelet activation, as reflected by urinary excretions of 8-iso-PGF2 alpha and of 11-dehydro-TXB(2) respectively, before and after a methionine load test (PML). A history of early-onset thrombosis (18 arterial, 32 venous, 2 both) was present in 52/96 of them. Results: Baseline; tHcy was highest in MTHFR++ carriers (p < 0,05); 8-iso-PGF2 alpha and 11-dehydro-TXB(2) levels were independent of sex, MTHFR++ and/or CBSins+(p > 0.05). PML; The similar to 3-fold increase (p < 0.01 vs baseline) in tHcy reached a plateau within 6-8 hrs. Mean PML tHcy was maximal in MTHFR++ carriers (p= 0.000). 8-iso-PGF2 alpha and 11-dehydro-TXB(2) increase reached a maximum within 4 hrs. 11-dehydro-TXB2 increase was highest (p= 0.023 vs baseline) in subjects with a history of thrombosis. Baseline 11-dehydro-TXB(2) and a history of thrombosis independently predicted PML 11-dehydro-TXB2 (beta= 0.287, p= 0.000 and beta= 0.308, p= 0.026, respectively). The PML increase in 8-iso-PGF2 alpha or in 11-dehydro-TXB2 were comparable in the different genotypes (p > 0.05). Conclusion: regardless genotypes associated with moderate hyperhomocysteinemia, following a methionine loading test, in vivo oxidative stress and platelet activation occur, being the latter maximal in subjects with a history of early-onset thrombosis.
