Abstract
Diagnosing an oxidative stress (OS) in companion animals comprises screening a bodily fluid sample to detect the presence of an OS biomarker, selectively isoprostane and antioxidants, HODE, microRNAs, TAC, GSH, MDA, and TNF-alpha. The sample can be saliva.
Claims10
A method for diagnosing and treating oxidative stress (OS) in a dog comprising the steps of detecting in a saliva sample of a dog the level of at least an OS isoprostane biomarker;
- and diagnosing OS in the dog based on an increased quantitative level of the OS isoprostane biomarker, detecting an elevated level of the OS isoprostane biomarker, and treating that elevated diagnosed level of the OS isoprostane biomarker with nutritional supplements to lower the elevated level, wherein a level of the OS isoprostane biomarker above 1.75 ng/mL in saliva is indicative of that elevated OS in the dog.
A method for diagnosing and treating oxidative stress (OS) in a dog comprising the steps of detecting in a saliva sample of a dog the level of at least one of an isoprostane biomarker and an HODE biomarker, and diagnosing the oxidative stress in the dog based on an increased quantitative level of the isoprostane biomarker, detecting an elevated level of the OS isoprostane biomarker, or the HODE biomarker, and treating that elevated diagnosed level of the isoprostane biomarker with nutritional supplements to lower the elevated level, wherein a level of that isoprostane biomarker above 1.75 ng/mL in saliva is indicative of increased OS stress in the dog.
A method for diagnosing and treating oxidative stress (OS) in a dog comprising the steps of detecting in a saliva sample of a dog the presence of OS based on the quantitative level of an HODE biomarker, diagnosing the oxidative stress in the dog on an increased quantitative level of the HODE biomarker, detecting an elevated level of the HODE biomarker, and treating that elevated diagnosed level of the HODE biomarker with nutritional supplements to lower the level, wherein a level of the HODE biomarker above 5.0 ng/mL in saliva is indicative of that elevated OS stress in the dog.
A method for diagnosing and treating oxidative stress (OS) in a dog comprising the steps of detecting in saliva of a dog the presence of an isoprostane OS biomarker based on a quantitative level of the isoprostane biomarker, and diagnosing OS in the dog based on an increased quantitative level of the isoprostane biomarker, detecting an elevated level of the OS isoprostane biomarker, and treating that elevated diagnosed level of the isoprostane biomarker with nutritional supplements to lower that elevated level, wherein a level of the OS isoprostane biomarker above 1.75 ng/mL in saliva is indicative of an elevated OS in the dog.
