The assessment of cortisol in night-urine fulfils these demands; although this method has been occasionally employed, it has not yet been described systematically, For the first time a detailed description is given here that allows for a standardized replication. In ten previous studies and three investigations of our own this method has been successfully applied to detect changes in the cortisol excretion of patients with endocrinological and psychiatric disorders as well as in subjects under conditions of psychosocial stress. The determination of cortisol in night-urine represents an ideal method for the assessment of changes in the basal HPA-activity in numerous areas of psychoneuroendocrinological research, e.g. field and screening studies in natural environment, clinical studies in psychiatry and especially follow-up studies in psychotherapy research."],["dc.identifier.isi","000166985000003"],["dc.identifier.pmid","11593453"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/33678"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht"],["dc.relation.issn","1438-3608"],["dc.title","Cortisol in night-urine: Introduction of a research method in psychoneuroendocrinology"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Despite a broad analytical approach comprising lipid peroxidation and amino acid oxidation products, oxidative DNA damage, and activity of the antioxidant defense, only plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) and urinary o,o'-dityrosine seemed to be appropriate, robust biomarkers of oxidative stress, which are also simple enough for routine clinical use. MDA concentrations correlated with a duration of nocturnal desaturation below 85% (r = 0.77, p < 0.0005), and o,o'-dityrosine levels decreased after therapy (p < 0.05) as a function of baseline concentrations (r = -0.61, p < 0.05).

Incipient PSE is frequently paralleled by the occurence of sleep disorders, however, their relation to PSE remains unclear.

Free MDA was prepared by perchloric acid deproteinisation whereas an alkaline hydrolysation step for 30 min at 60 degrees C was introduced prior to protein precipitation for the determination of total MDA. Derivatisation was accomplished in 10 min at room temperature subsequently chromatographed by HPLC on a reversed-phase 3 mu m C-18 column with UV detection (310 nm). The detection limit was 25 pmol/ml for free and 0.3 nmol/ml for total MDA. The recovery of MDA added to different human plasma samples was 93.6% (n=11; RSD 7.1%) for the hydrolysation procedure. In samples from 12 healthy volunteers who underwent a hypoxic treatment (13% O-2 for 6 h) we estimated a baseline value of total MDA of 2.16 nmol/ml (SD 0.29) (ambient air) with a significant increase to 2.92 (nmol/ml, SD 0.57; P=0.01) after the end of this physiological oxidative stress challenge. Plasma values of free MDA in these samples were close to our detection limit.
