Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) resulting from aneurysmal rupture is the major cause of nontraumatic SAH. We hypothesized that oxidative stress could be increased following aneurysmal SAH due to hemoglobin release and ischemia–reperfusion injury and that may further contribute to poor outcome. We collected plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from 11 non-SAH controls and 15 aneurysmal SAH patients for up to 10 days after surgery and investigated status of oxidative stress in patients. Results showed that mean or peak levels of F2-isoprostanes (F2-IsoPs), a specific marker of lipid peroxidation, and total nitrate/nitrite, metabolites of nitric oxide and peroxynitrite, in CSF and plasma were significantly higher in SAH patients than in controls. First-day levels were also higher in CSF, but not in plasma, in SAH patients. Moreover, mean and peak levels of CSF F2-IsoPs were positively correlated with poor outcome or severity of clinical conditions in patients. Furthermore, levels of retinol, δ-tocopherol, β+γ-tocopherol, lutein, β-carotene, and coenzyme Q10 in plasma were significantly lower in SAH patients than in controls. Our results indicate that oxidative damage may play important roles in the severity and complications of aneurysmal SAH and suggest that means to suppress lipid peroxidation may be beneficial in improving the outcome of aneurysmal SAH.
