Research Abstract |
We showed oxysterols, malondialdehyde and hexanonyl lysine were increased in atherosclerotic lesions of human aorta. Inaddition, we found 7-ketochokesterol and hexanonyl lysine were accumulated in inner media of aorta by immunohistochemical analysis. Moreover, we showed that in autopsied cases hexanonyl lysine in red blood cells and expression patterns of heat shock protein 70 in glomerular podocytes were useful markers as habitual drinking and death associated with exposure to cold respectively. These results suggest the possibility that such oxidative stress markers involving oxysterols were applied for forensic diagnosis.
