8-hydroxy-2--deoxyguanosine and Carcinoma--Renal-Cell

This study was designed to reveal the protective effects of dietary supplementation of curcumin against renal cell tumours and oxidative stress induced by renal carcinogen iron nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) in ddY male mice. The results showed that mice treated with a renal carcinogen, Fe-NTA, a 35% renal cell tumour incidence was noticed, whereas renal cell tumour occurrence was elevated to 80% in Fe-NTA promoted and N-diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-initiated mice as compared with saline- treated mice. No incidence of tumours has been observed in DEN-initiated non-promoted mice. Diet complemented with 0.5% and 1.0% curcumin fed prior to, during and after treatment with Fe-NTA in DEN-initiated animals, tumour incidence was reduced dose-dependently to about 45% and 30% respectively. Immunohistochemical studies also revealed the increased formation of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified protein adducts and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in kidney tissue of mice treated with an intraperitoneal injection of Fe-NTA (6.0 mg Fe/kg body weight.). Furthermore, Fe-NTA treatment of mice also resulted in significant elevation of malondialdehyde (MDA), serum urea, and creatinine and decreases renal glutathione. However, the changes in most of these parameters were attenuated dose-dependently by prophylactic treatment of animals with 0.5% and 1% curcumin diet, this may be due to its antioxidative impact of curcumin. These results suggest that intake of curcumin is beneficial for the prevention of renal cell tumours and oxidative stress damage mediated by renal carcinogen, Fe-NTA.

Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), a superfamily of multifunctional enzymes, play an important role in the onset and progression of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). However, novel GST omega class (GSTO), consisting of GSTO1-1 and GSTO2-2 isoenzymes, has not been studied in RCC yet. Two coding single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) supposedly affect their functions: GSTO1*C419A (rs4925) causing alanine to aspartate substitution (*A140D) and GSTO2*A424G (rs156697) causing asparagine to aspartate substitution (*N142D), and have been associated with several neurodegenerative diseases and cancers. Functional relevance of yet another GSTO2 polymorphism, identified at the 5' untranslated (5'UTR) gene region (GSTO2*A183G, rs2297235), has not been clearly discerned so far. Therefore, we aimed to assess the effect of specific GSTO1 and GSTO2 gene variants, independently and in interaction with established risk factors (smoking, obesity and hypertension) on the risk for the most aggressive RCC subtype, the clear cell RCC (ccRCC). Genotyping was performed in 239 ccRCC patients and 350 matched controls, while plasma levels of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage, were determined by ELISA. As a result, combined effect of all three variant genotypes exhibited almost 3-fold risk of RCC development. Additionally, this association was confirmed at the haplotype level [variant GSTO1*A/GSTO2*G (rs156697)/GSTO2*G (rs2297235) haplotype], suggesting a potential role of those variants in propensity to RCC. Regarding the gene-environment interactions, variant GSTO2*G (rs156697) homozygous smokers are at higher ccRCC risk. Association in terms of oxidative DNA damage was found for GSTO2 polymorphism in 5'UTR and 8-OHdG. In conclusion, the concomitance of GSTO polymorphisms may influence ccRCC risk.

This study was designed to explore the relationship between X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene polymorphisms and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and to investigate whether individuals with an XRCC1 risk genotype, a high level of 8-OHdG or a high urinary total arsenic concentration have a modified odds ratio (OR) of RCC. We recruited 180 RCC patients and 360 age- and sex-matched controls from a hospital-based pool. Image-guided biopsy or surgical resection of renal tumors was performed on RCC patients for pathological verification. Genomic DNA was used to examine the genotype of XRCC1(Arg399Gln), XRCC1(Arg194Trp), XRCC3(Thr241Met) and XPD(Lys751Gln) by PCR-RFLP. Liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry was used to determine urinary 8-OHdG levels. A HPLC-HG-AAS was used to determine the concentrations of urinary arsenic species. Participants with the genotype XRCC1(Arg194Trp) Arg/Trp+Trp/Trp had a significantly higher OR of RCC than those with the Arg/Arg genotype; the OR and 95% confidence interval was 0.66 (0.45-0.97) after multivariate adjustment. The OR of RCC for the combined effect of high urinary 8-OHdG levels and high urinary total arsenic concentration in individuals with a XRCC1(Arg194Trp) Arg/Trp+Trp/Trp genotype was higher than in patients with an Arg/Arg genotype, which was evident in a dose response manner. In conclusion, this is the first study to show that the XRCC1 Arg194 allele is a predicting factor for RCC. The more risk factors (high urinary 8-OHdG levels, high urinary total arsenic concentrations, and XRCC1 Arg194 allele) that were present, the higher the OR of RCC.

Many cancers appear to activate intrinsic antioxidant systems as a means to counteract oxidative stress. Some cancers, such as clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), require exogenous glutamine for growth and exhibit reprogrammed glutamine metabolism, at least in part due to the glutathione pathway, an efficient cellular buffering system that counteracts reactive oxygen species and other oxidants. We show here that ccRCC xenograft tumors under the renal capsule exhibit enhanced oxidative stress compared with adjacent normal tissue and the contralateral kidney. Upon glutaminase inhibition with CB-839 or BPTES, the RCC cell lines SN12PM-6-1 (SN12) and 786-O exhibited decreased survival and pronounced apoptosis associated with a decreased GSH/GSSG ratio, augmented nuclear factor erythroid-related factor 2, and increased 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine, a marker of DNA damage. SN12 tumor xenografts showed decreased growth when treated with CB-839. Furthermore, PET imaging confirmed that ccRCC tumors exhibited increased tumoral uptake of

8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is one of the most reliable and abundant markers of DNA damage. The study was designed to explore the relationship between urinary 8-OHdG and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and to investigate whether individuals with a high level of 8-OHdG would have a modified odds ratio (OR) of arsenic-related RCC. This case-control study was conducted with 132 RCC patients and 245 age- and sex-matched controls from a hospital-based pool between November 2006 and May 2009. Pathological verification of RCC was completed by image-guided biopsy or surgical resection of renal tumors. Urinary 8-OHdG levels were determined using liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Concentrations of urinary arsenic species, including inorganic arsenic, monomethylarsonic acid (MMA) and dimethylarsinic acid (DMA), were determined by a high performance liquid chromatography-linked hydride generator and atomic absorption spectrometry. Level of urinary 8-OHdG was significantly associated with the OR of RCC in a dose-response relationship after multivariate adjustment. Urinary 8-OHdG was significantly related to urinary total arsenic. The greatest OR (3.50) was seen in the individuals with high urinary 8-OHdG and high urinary total arsenic. A trend test indicated that the OR of RCC was increased with one of these factors and was further increased with both (p=0.002). In conclusion, higher urinary 8-OHdG was a strong predictor of the RCC. High levels of 8-OHdG combined with urinary total arsenic might be indicative of arsenic-induced RCC.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is more frequently observed in patients on dialysis than in patients with normal renal function. However, the mechanism underlying carcinogenesis in RCC patients on dialysis is still unclear. We hypothesized that oxidative stress affects patients on dialysis and generates new neoplasms, and therefore analysed the correlation between the influences of various markers of oxidative stress and carcinogenesis in those patients. We evaluated the immunohistochemical expression of oxidative stress markers, such as iNOS, 8-OHdG, and COX-2 in 42 cases on dialysis and 51 cases with normal renal function as a control. The methylation status of p16INK4a, p14ARF, VHL, and RASSF1A was analysed together with clinicopathological factors. Histologically, the papillary type was observed more frequently in dialysis RCC than in sporadic RCC. Immunohistochemically, overexpression of iNOS (p < 0.0001) and COX-2 (p = 0.0002) was more frequently observed in dialysis RCC. Furthermore, the 8-OHdG labelling index was significantly higher in dialysis RCC than in sporadic RCC. Hypermethylation of p16INK4a was more frequently found in dialysis RCC (p < 0.05). However, no significant correlations between oxidative stress markers and DNA hypermethylation status were observed. The overexpression of iNOS, COX-2, and 8-OHdG in dialysis RCC suggests that patients on dialysis are affected by oxidative stress and that this effect plays an important role in the genesis of dialysis RCC.

To determine whether the degree of oxidative DNA damage in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) can be used as a useful prognostic predictor for patients who undergo radical nephrectomy.. We measured 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), one of the most commonly used markers for evaluating oxidative stress, in DNA isolated from 72 RCC specimens, as well as adjacent normal kidney tissue using a quantitative sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.. The mean value of 8-OHdG in RCC was significantly greater than that in the adjacent normal tissue. The level of 8-OHdG in RCC compared with that in normal tissue (8-OHdG ratio) was significantly associated with other prognostic parameters, including mode of detection, maximal tumor size, distant metastasis, pathologic stage, tumor grade, and microscopic venous invasion. Furthermore, cancer-specific survival in patients with an elevated 8-OHdG ratio was significantly lower than that in patients with a normal 8-OHdG ratio; however, multivariate analysis using a Cox proportional hazards model showed that maximal tumor size and distant metastasis could be used as independent predictors of cancer-related death.. These findings suggest that despite the lack of independent significance, the 8-OHdG ratio could be a useful prognostic indicator for patients with RCC; therefore, careful follow-up should be considered in those with an elevated 8-OHdG ratio.

The protective effect of Brazilian propolis and its extract Artepillin C against ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA)-induced renal lipid peroxidation and carcinogenesis was studied in male ddY mice. Fe-NTA-induced renal lipid peroxidation leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in mice. Administration of propolis by gastric intubation 2 h before or Artepillin C at either the same time, 2 h, or 5 h before the intraperitoneal injection of Fe-NTA (7 mg Fe/kg) effectively inhibited renal lipid peroxidation. This was evaluated from the measurement of renal thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) or histochemical findings of 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE)-modified proteins and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). Repeated injection of Fe-NTA (10 mg Fe/kg per day, twice a week for a total of 16 times in 8 weeks) caused subacute nephrotoxicity as revealed by necrosis and pleomorphic large nuclear cells in the renal proximal tubules, and gave rise to RCC 12 months later. A protective effect from carcinogenicity was observed in mice given propolis or Artepillin C. Furthermore, the mice given Fe-NTA only developed multiple cysts composed of precancerous lesions with multilayered and proliferating large atypical cells. Mice treated with propolis and Artepillin C also had cysts, but these were dilated and composed of flat cells. These results suggest that propolis and Artepillin C prevent oxidative renal damage and the carcinogenesis induced by Fe-NTA in mice.

To induce the rat model of polycyst with renal tumor and investigate the expression of 8-OHdG in the kidney tissues.. The rat model of polycyst with renal tumor, similar to human acquired cystic disease of the kidney (ACDK), was induced by oral administration of 2-amino-4, 5-diphenylthiazole (DPT) and N-nitrosomorpholine (NNM). Immunohistochemical method (LSAB) was used to assay the expression of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in the rat kidney tissue.. Three of 10 rats in the NNM group had renal solid adenomatous lesions. Bilateral polycysts were observed in all 9 rats of the DPT/NNM group. Seven of the 9 rats had cystic multistage renal tumor. In the DPT/NNM group, 4 rats had cystic adenomatous lesions, but none in the other groups showed this lesion. In the model, adenomatous lesions derived from polycysts in the rats were closely consistent to human ACDK in morphology. The significant expression of 8-OHdG was found on renal tubular cell, cystic epithelial cell, stromal cell and tumor cell in all rats of the NNM and DPT/NNM group.. A rat model of polycysts with renal tumor, similar to human ACDK, induced by DPT and NNM provides evidences for further study on pathogenic mechanism in human ACDK with renal cell carcinoma. The expression of 8-OHdG, a DNA damage marker, in the renal tissues of rat model might help to explain the mechanism of cysticogenesis and carcinogenesis in human ACDK.

To study the possible involvement of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the tumor biology of human renal-cell carcinoma (RCC), we analyzed 35 cases of RCC for 2 parameters of oxidative damage: 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a mutation-prone DNA-base-modified product, was measured by means of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with an electrochemical (EC) detector, and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE)-modified proteins were measured with a polyclonal antibody against HNE-modified proteins. A 54% higher content of 8-OHdG was found in RCC than in the corresponding non-tumorous kidney, suggesting that the DNA of RCC is more exposed to ROS than is the DNA of non-tumorous kidneys. Immunohistochemistry for HNE-modified proteins showed a distinct staining pattern of fine to coarse granularity in the cytoplasm of RCC (n = 15), implying that lipid peroxidation products are located in cytoplasmic organelles. These results suggest that RCC constitutionally elaborates more ROS than is produced by the non-tumorous parts of kidneys. No correlation was found between clinical stage, histology, age or sex and the 2 parameters examined.
