Here, we report the simultaneous derivatization and quantification of malondialdehyde (MDA) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) in human plasma by GC-MS/MS using [1,3-2H2]-MDA (d2-MDA) and [9,9,9-2H3]-HNE (d3-HNE) as the internal standards, respectively. MDA, d2-MDA, HNE and d3-HNE were converted to their pentafluorobenzyl oximes (PFBOX) by pentafluorobenzyl hydroxylamine. Subsequently, the hydroxyl groups of the PFBOX of HNE and d3-HNE were trimethylsilylated with N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide/1% trimethylchlorosilane. GC-MS/MS analyses were performed in the electron-capture negative-ion chemical ionization mode. Quantification was performed by selected-reaction monitoring the mass transitions m/z 442 to m/z 243 for MDA, m/z 444 to m/z 244 for d2-MDA, m/z 403 → m/z 283 for HNE and m/z 406 → m/z 286 for d3-HNE. The method was applied to measure MDA and HNE in plasma of patients suffering from coronary artery disease (CAD) or peripheral artery occlusive disease (PAOD) before and after oral supplementation of L-arginine (3 g/day) or placebo for 3 (CAD and PAOD) and 6 months (PAOD). All plasma samples were analyzed after completion of the studies. Our results revealed that storage of plasma samples (at −80 °C) leads to lower MDA and HNE plasma concentrations in the plasma samples that were collected at the end of the studies as compared to those collected at the begin of the studies. Based on MDA and HNE measurements in plasma, L-arginine did not influence lipid peroxidation in CAD and PAOD patients. Long-term studies on lipid peroxidation are best performed by measuring oxidative stress biomarkers such as MDA and/or HNE in plasma samples immediately after their collection. Long-term storage of plasma samples even at −80 °C is not recommended.
