ABSTRACT
To report the markers of oxidative stress and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in tuberculosis of differing severity. Ninety patients with tuberculosis, 30 each with pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB), Pott's spine (PS) and tuberculous meningitis (TBM) were included. The diagnosis and severity of the respective group was based on pre-defined criteria. Six-months outcome and complications (Hyponatremia, paradoxical worsening and Drug induced hepatitis(DIH)) were recorded. Serum Melanodehyde (MDA) , glutathione (GSH), total antioxidant capacity (TAC), ER stress markers ATF-4,GRP-78 and CHOP, were measured using spectrophotometry and real time PCR. The oxidative and ER stress markers were correlated with different subgroups, severity of TBM, complications and outcome. The severity of TBM correlated with alteration in oxidative and ER stress markers. MDA was related to hyponatremia (P = 0.045), paradoxical worsening (P = 0.035) and DIH (P = 0.038), TAC correlated with paradoxical worsening (P = 0.047) and DIH (P = 0.015). In PS, MDA correlated with paradoxical worsening (P = 0.032) and DIH (P = 0.032); and in PTB, MDA correlated with hyponatremia (P = 0.025) and DIH (P = 0.037). Changes in stress marker levels were more marked in TBM compared to PS and PTB. Outcome of TBM correlated with MDA (P = 0.002), PS to MDA(P = 0.004), TAC(P = 0.05) CHOP(P = 0.004), GRP78(P = 0.001), ATF4(P = 0.045) and PTB to MDA(P = 0.0450), TAC(P = 0.014), CHOP(P = 0.025) and GRP78(P = 0.035). Oxidative and ER stress markers seem to be related to severity of TB, its complications and outcome.
