Objective. “Oxinflammation” is a recently coined term that defines the deleterious crosstalk between inflammatory and redox systemic processes, which underlie several diseases. Oxinflammation could be latently responsible for the predisposition of certain healthy individuals to disease development. The oxinflammatory pathway has been recently suggested to play a crucial role in regulating the activity of TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL), a TNF superfamily member that can mediate multiple signals in physiological and pathological processes. Therefore, we investigated the associations between TRAIL and key players of vascular redox homeostasis. Methods. We measured circulating TRAIL levels relative to praoxonas-1, lipoprotein phospholipase-A2, and ceruloplasmin levels in a cohort of healthy subjects (n=209). Results. Multivariate analysis revealed that ceruloplasmin levels were significantly inversely associated with TRAIL levels (r=−0.431, p
