Evaluation of a short term effect of praziquantel treatment in opisthorchiasis-induced hepatobiliary inflammation by urinary 8-oxodG.
Inflammation of the hepatobiliary system in chronic opisthorchiasis is associated with an elevated level of urinary 8-oxo-7,8 dihydro-2'deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) during active as well as past exposure to Opisthorchis viverrini infection. In this study, we evaluated the short-term effect of praziquantel treatment on hepatobiliary disease (HBD) using urinary 8-oxodG as an inflammatory marker in a cohort of residents in endemic areas of opisthorchiasis in Khon Kaen, Thailand. The HBD status in terms of periductal fibrosis (PDF) was determined by abdominal ultrasonography and O. viverrini infection was monitored at baseline and 2-4 weeks after curative treatment by praziquantel. Analysis of O. viverrini-infected participants who were PDF-ve revealed that there was a significant reduction of urinary 8-oxodG after treatment compared with the baseline levels (pā<ā 0.001). By contrast, in PDF+ve individuals, the levels of urinary 8-oxodG were similar between baseline and those post-treatment. Although confirmation by using a larger sample size is needed, the positive association between HBD and urinary 8-oxodG level after worm clearance suggests that chronic hepatobiliary inflammation is neither affected nor interrupted by short-term praziquantel treatment. Individuals with persistent PDF at pre- and post-treatment who have a high risk of cholangiocarcinoma, could be identified within 2-4 weeks after parasite removal by drug treatment. Thus, urinary 8-oxodG is a useful biomarker for predicting persistent PDF in individuals with a recent drug treatment history who require further clinical investigation, management and treatment.

Levels of 8-OxodG Predict Hepatobiliary Pathology in Opisthorchis viverrini Endemic Settings in Thailand.
Opisthorchis viverrini is distinct among helminth infections as it drives a chronic inflammatory response in the intrahepatic bile duct that progresses from advanced periductal fibrosis (APF) to cholangiocarcinoma (CCA). Extensive research shows that oxidative stress (OS) plays a critical role in the transition from chronic O. viverrini infection to CCA. OS also results in the excision of a modified DNA lesion (8-oxodG) into urine, the levels of which can be detected by immunoassay. Herein, we measured concentrations of urine 8-oxodG by immunoassay from the following four groups in the Khon Kaen Cancer Cohort study: (1) O. viverrini negative individuals, (2) O. viverrini positive individuals with no APF as determined by abdominal ultrasound, (3) O. viverrini positive individuals with APF as determined by abdominal ultrasound, and (4) O. viverrini induced cases of CCA. A logistic regression model was used to evaluate the utility of creatinine-adjusted urinary 8-oxodG among these groups, along with demographic, behavioral, and immunological risk factors. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive accuracy of urinary 8-oxodG for APF and CCA. Elevated concentrations of 8-oxodG in urine positively associated with APF and CCA in a strongly dose-dependent manner. Urinary 8-oxodG concentrations also accurately predicted whether an individual presented with APF or CCA compared to O. viverrini infected individuals without these pathologies. In conclusion, urinary 8-oxodG is a robust 'candidate' biomarker of the progression of APF and CCA from chronic opisthorchiasis, which is indicative of the critical role that OS plays in both of these advanced hepatobiliary pathologies. The findings also confirm our previous observations that severe liver pathology occurs early and asymptomatically in residents of O. viverrini endemic regions, where individuals are infected for years (often decades) with this food-borne pathogen. These findings also contribute to an expanding literature on 8-oxodG in an easily accessible bodily fluid (e.g., urine) as a biomarker in the multistage process of inflammation, fibrogenesis, and infection-induced cancer.

Urinary 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine in patients with parasite infection and effect of antiparasitic drug in relation to cholangiocarcinogenesis.
Parasite infection of Opisthorchis viverrini is a major risk factor for cholangiocarcinoma. Our previous immunohistochemical studies showed that O. viverrini infection induced oxidative DNA lesions in the bile duct epithelium during cholangiocarcinoma development. The current study assessed the levels of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG), an oxidative DNA lesion, in the urine and leukocytes of O. viverrini-infected subjects and cholangiocarcinoma patients. Forty-nine O. viverrini-infected patients, 55 cholangiocarcinoma patients, and 17 healthy controls were enrolled in the study. We measured 8-oxodG levels in the urine and leukocytes of these subjects using an electrochemical detector coupled to high-performance liquid chromatography. O. viverrini-infected patients were assessed before treatment and 2 months and 1 year after praziquantel treatment. Urinary 8-oxodG levels were significantly higher in cholangiocarcinoma patients (6.83 +/- 1.00 microg/g creatinine) than in O. viverrini-infected patients (4.45 +/- 0.25 mug/g creatinine; P < 0.05) and healthy subjects (3.03 +/- 0.24 microg/g creatinine; P < 0.01) and higher in O. viverrini-infected subjects than in healthy subjects (P < 0.01). The urinary 8-oxodG levels in O. viverrini-infected patients significantly decreased 2 months after praziquantel treatment and were comparable with levels in healthy subjects 1 year after treatment. Urinary 8-oxodG levels were significantly correlated with leukocyte 8-oxodG levels, plasma nitrate/nitrite levels, and aspartate aminotransferase activity. In conclusion, this study, in addition to our previous studies, indicates that 8-oxodG formation by parasite infection may play an important role in cholangiocarcinoma development. Urinary 8-oxodG may be a useful biomarker to monitor not only infection but also carcinogenesis.

Repeated infection with Opisthorchis viverrini induces accumulation of 8-nitroguanine and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanine in the bile duct of hamsters via inducible nitric oxide synthase.
Chronic inflammation induced by repeated infection with Opisthorchis viverrini has been postulated to be a risk factor for cholangiocarcinoma. To clarify the mechanism of carcinogenesis induced by repeated O.viverrini infection, we investigated the timecourse of 8-nitroguanine and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) formation, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) expression, nitric oxide production and pathological features in hamsters with two (2-IF) or three (3-IF) O.viverrini infections. Inflammatory cell infiltration triggered by repeated infection (3-IF > 2-IF > 1-IF) was earlier than by single infection (1-IF). HPLC coupled with an electrochemical detector revealed that 8-oxodG level in the liver was the highest on day 3 in 3-IF and day 7 in 2-IF, earlier than that on day 21 in 1-IF. Notably, a double immunofluorescence study revealed that formation of 8-nitroguanine and 8-oxodG appeared to increase in the epithelium of bile ducts in the order 3-IF > 2-IF > 1-IF after the decrease in inflammatory cells. This may be explained by the fact that repeated infection increased iNOS expression in the epithelium of bile ducts in the order 3-IF > 2-IF > 1-IF on day 90. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen accumulated in the epithelium of bile ducts on day 90 after repeated O.viverrini infection, supporting the hypothesis that cell proliferation was promoted by inflammation-mediated DNA damage. In conclusion, more frequent O.viverrini infection can induce the expression of iNOS not only in inflammatory cells but also in the epithelium of bile ducts and subsequently cause nitrosative and oxidative damage to nucleic acids, which may participate in the initiation and/or promotion steps of cholangiocarcinoma development.

Mechanism of NO-mediated oxidative and nitrative DNA damage in hamsters infected with Opisthorchis viverrini: a model of inflammation-mediated carcinogenesis.
Inflammation mediated by infection is an important factor causing carcinogenesis. Opisthorchis viverrini (OV) infection is a risk factor of cholangiocarcinoma (CHCA), probably through chronic inflammation. Formation of 8-nitroguanine and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG), and expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) were assessed in the liver of hamsters infected with OV. We newly produced specific anti-8-nitroguanine antibody without cross-reaction. Double immunofluorescence staining revealed that 8-oxodG and 8-nitroguanine were formed mainly in the same inflammatory cells and epithelium of bile ducts from day 7 and showed the strongest immunoreactivity on days 21 and 30, respectively. It is noteworthy that 8-oxodG and 8-nitroguanine still remained in epithelium of bile ducts on day 180, although amount of alanine aminotransferase activity returned to normal level. A time course of 8-nitroguanine was associated with iNOS expression. Furthermore, this study demonstrated that HO-1 expression and subsequent iron accumulation may be involved in enhancement of oxidative DNA damage in epithelium of small bile ducts. In conclusion, nitrative and oxidative DNA damage via iNOS expression in hamsters infected with OV may participate in CHCA carcinogenesis.
