Although the usually main analysis executed using blood preparation to oxidative stress, antioxidant and inflammatory biomarker,But the present invention uses urine specimen, urine specimen with non-intruding mode and can be exposed to blood source by less skilled individualIt is obtained in the case of the risk of pathogen is lower.In addition, the level of some biomarkers of blood sample may be due to haemolysisThe release of red blood cell component or due to the precursor when blood is exposed to air in sample(Such as unsaturated lipids)In vitro oxygenChange and is substantially changed.
The test for multiple urine biologies label that urine executes is provided more steady than any individual urine biology labelThe strong assessment to individual health state.
In one or more embodiments, the user between the test of the possibility of the urine from urine specimen selects optionIt includes at least:It is directed to the test of at least one biomarker of inflammation, oxidative stress and antioxidant activity respectively.Test can be withIn the liquid phase(In test tube or microplate hole)It executes, is suitable for the simple test paper method using dried reagent, or be merged into microfluidOr in current immunity detecting device.
Work as reactive oxygen species(ROS)(Such as lipid peroxide)Abnormal level when leading to molecular damage in body, meetingOxidative stress occurs.ROS can be generated for example by fungi or viral infection, aging, UV radiation, pollution, excessive consumption of alcohol and smoking.ROS can further cause age-dependent macular degeneration and cataract.
Oxidative stress test may include merging specific malonaldehyde(MDA)Or 4- Hydroxynonenals(4HNE)Method is to quantifyLipid peroxidation, and/or merge Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substance(TBARS)Method to measure effect due to free radical and byIt is oxidized to the wider range of the substance of aldehyde and ketone.These tests are known in the art and can be by analysis institutions appropriateTo execute.Several other biomarkers can be used for the test for oxidative stress.The high-level indicating oxygen of these biomarkersChange stress individual in occur.The low-level of these biomarkers indicates healthy individuals.
Resistance to oxidation is tested(Sometimes referred to as oxidation resistance is tested)Using CUPRAC(The anti-oxidant energy of divalent copper reductionPower)Method measures multiple types by being present in urine specimen(Uric acid, protein, vitamin, dietary supplements)It is causedThe summation of antioxidant activity.Alternatively or additionally, can come special measure or distinguish uric acid, anti-bad using modified methodBlood protein or to other contributive substances of whole resistance to oxidation, to which monitoring is referred to as the substance of " anti-oxidant deposit ".ThisA little tests are well known in the art and can be executed by analysis institution appropriate.Other several biomarkers can be used forTest resistance to oxidation.The high value of resistance to oxidation(It is directed to a greater amount of biomarkers of resistance to oxidation)Indicate healthy individuals,Because the individual have can neutralize cause oxidative damage and stress free radical compound.
Inflammation is made of the physiology and pathology affair of a series of complex, which includes some protein(For example, such asThe cell factor and COX-2 of IL-6 and IL-8 etc and the inducible form of nitricoxide synthase)Yield increase.By an oxygenNitric oxide production can increase to up to 1000 times during inflammation caused by changing the induction isomers of nitrogen synthase, andIt is proved to be the useful organisms label of inflammation.Urine nitric acid salt excretion increases in the patient with rheumatoid arthritis, andIt is reduced in the patient for taking prednisolone.Because NO is relatively unstable, it is possible to by using its catabolite nitre of measurementHydrochlorate and nitrite(Measure the summation of the nitrite or nitrite and nitrate in urine specimen(It is commonly abbreviated asNOx))Method test the yield of NO.These tests are well known in the art and can be by analysis machines appropriateStructure executes.In addition, although the protein of high level is related to nephrosis in urine, however, it is known that certain inflammatory cells becauseThe effect of son, which makes to be detained by the hematoglobin protein that kidney is realized, to be reduced so that the raising of urine protein level associated with nephrosisThe appropriateness horizontal compared to lower urine protein increases the biomarker that may be used as inflammation.Other several biomarkers can be used forFor the detection of inflammation.The inflammation biomarker of higher level indicates to occur during inflammation is individual, may indicate that disease.It is relatively lowHorizontal inflammation biomarker indicates healthy individuals.Chronic inflammation can cause Hay Fever, atherosclerosis and rheumatoid to closeSection is scorching.Anti-inflammatory agent is also proved to significantly reduce heart disease, the incidence of diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and cancer.
It due to the sequencing to human genome, has become and is more and more obvious, although science of heredity is for sub-fractionMain function is played in the development of the disease of population, but science of heredity is only big to the general impacts of the main non-communicable diseases of the mankindAbout 15-20%.Particularly with highest morbidity and mortality in meter and developed country(Chronic disease, such as cancer, cardiovascular diseaseDisease, neurodegenerative disease and autoimmune disease)Disease development, it is important it is more be diet, life style(Including forgingRefining, smoking, alcohol use)With the influence of environment.All of these factors taken together influence individual health and they cause inflammation and/orOxidative stress increases or decreases.Moreover, oxidative stress may trigger some reactions for increasing level of inflammation.
Sexually transmitted disease can be directed to other tests of urine specimen, such as Chlamydia test, gonorrhoea test, mycoplasma are surveyedExamination, the test of urea substance, trichomonas vaginalis test, Gardnerella vaginalis test, the test of herpe simplex I/II types.
Almost all of biomarker(It is determined directly from test sample)It is preferred that by using advanced automation instrumentDevice most accurately, the biochemical measurement established recently measures.
Urine specimen can be handled optionally with substance, and the substance assists in keeping measured ingredient and storing or transportingPeriod is from decomposition, and/or prevents from generating additional reactive material in vitro, and/or prevents storing or transporting the phase in sampleBetween may change numerical value microorganism growth.
Some blood biomarkers of the oxidative stress status of instruction individual are briefly described below.Identical blood biology markNote can be used for other instructions.
1. total olefine aldehydr.The test is measured to cytolipin plasma membrane and lipoprotein(That is LDL)Free radical attack lipidPeroxide(Malonaldehyde and 4- Hydroxynonenals)Product.In the measured value reflection body of the amount of serum lipid peroxide certainlyThe amount damaged by base.
2. aqueous hydroperoxides.The test measures aqueous hydroperoxides, and such as hydrogen peroxide can be with enzymatic oxidationMetal reaction has reactive hydroxyl to be formed very.The measured value of the amount of serum hydroperoxides reflects at that time in bodyThe amount of the free radical of generation.
3. lipid hydroperoxide.It [is not hydrogen peroxide or lipid peroxide that the test, which measures lipid hydroperoxide,The product of damage, i.e. aldehyde(MDA)].The measured value of the amount of serum lipids hydroperoxides reflects oneself generated in body at that timeBy the amount of base.
4. automatic antibody oxidation-LDL.Angiocardiopathy development current and main theory be:LDL is aoxidized, coverletNucleus swallows, and monocyte becomes ' foam ' cell, then ' foam ' cell is stuck in arterial cell wall and causes fatSour speckle lesion(Patch).The LDL of oxidation(Ox-LDL)Cause immune response to remove it from body.Immune response with it is wholeThe amount of Ox-LDL present in a body is directly proportional.Since most of Ox-LDL is in arterial cell wall, in serumIt is not largely effective to measure Ox-LDL;Therefore, cardiovascular is presently considered to be to the autoimmune antibody measurement result of Ox-LDLThe very strong risk indication amount of disease.
5. total iron.Unbonded iron can be by being catalyzed from hydrogen peroxide and strong reductant(Such as ascorbate orHomocysteine)Generation has reactive hydroxyl very much(Fenton's reaction)And play the role of prooxidant.High ferro(Excess load)It is associated with following items:A large amount of radical damage and the most of age-related diseases of development(Such as diabetes, heart disease andCancer)High risk.
