Identifying biomarkers that assist in the diagnosis of this disease has clinically relevant implications. The aim of this study was to develop an analytic tool for measuring nitroxidative distress biomarkers, intended for application in clinical practice to enhance patient healthcare. Three enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) were developed, with different detection objectives. One of them, in a sandwich format, quantifies the amount of fibrinogen in human plasma, an important glycoprotein involved in the blood coagulation process, contributing to thrombus formation and thereby participating in the mechanism of ischemic stroke. Another ELISA, also in a sandwich format, detects the presence of nitrotyrosine residues in fibrinogen from human plasma, a nitroxidative posttranslational modification resulting from the attack of peroxynitrite by-products on tyrosine residues present in proteins. The third one, in inhibition format, determines human plasma nitrotyrosine total content and was used to analyze human plasma samples from control and iCVA patients. Those two groups of plasma samples were analyzed using inhibition ELISA, revealing statistically significant differences in their nitrotyrosine content and molar ratios of nitrotyrosine to fibrinogen, which were higher in the iCVA group. This study provides evidence that nitroxidative distress occurs in ischemic stroke, as indicated by the detection of the biomarker nitrotyrosine. This finding supports other studies that also identified nitrotyrosine in ischemic stroke, through several different methods. This specific ELISA method is applicable for the rapid analysis of clinical samples, making it a potential clinical tool for assessing iCVA patients.","PeriodicalId":15990,"journal":{"name":"Journal of immunoassay & immunochemistry","volume":" ","pages":"122-149"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139990282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
