The present study was performed to examine if catechol oxidation is higher in brains from patients with Parkinson’s disease compared to age-matched controls, and if catechol oxidation increases with age. Brain tissue from Parkinson patients and age-matched controls was examined for oxidation of dopamine, 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA) to corresponding quinones, by measurement of 5-S-cysteinyl-dopamine, 5-S-cysteinyl-DOPAC and 5-S-cysteinyl-DOPA. The cysteinyl catechols are assumed to be biomarkers for DA, DOPAC and DOPA autoxidation and part of the biosynthetic pathway of neuromelanin. The concentrations of the 5-S-cysteinyl catechols were lower, whereas the 5-S-cysteinyl-DA/DA and 5-S-cysteinyl-DOPAC/DOPAC ratios tended to be higher in the Parkinson group compared to controls, which was interpreted as a higher degree of oxidation. High 5-S-cysteinyl-DA/DA ratios were found in the substantia nigra of a sub-population of the Parkinson group. Based on 5-S-cysteinyl-DA/DA ratios, dopamine oxidation was found to increase statistically significantly with age in the caudate nucleus, and non-significantly in the substantia nigra. In conclusion, the occurrence of 5-S-cysteinyl-DA, 5-S-cysteinyl-DOPAC and 5-S-cysteinyl-DOPA was demonstrated in dopaminergic brain areas of humans, a tendency for higher oxidation of DA in the Parkinson group compared to controls was observed as well as a statistically significant increase in DA oxidation with age. Possibly, autoxidation of DA and other catechols are involved in both normal and pathological ageing of the brain. This study confirms one earlier but small study, as well as complements one study on non-PD cases and one study on both PD cases and controls on NM bound or integrated markers or catechols.
