Protective effects of plasma alpha-tocopherols on the risk of inorganic arsenic-related urothelial carcinoma.
    The Science of the total environment, 2011, Feb-15, Volume: 409, Issue:6

    Arsenic plays an important role in producing oxidative stress in cultured cells. To investigate the interaction between high oxidative stress and low arsenic methylation capacity on arsenic carcinogenesis, a case-control study was conducted to evaluate the relationship among the indices of oxidative stress, such as urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyquanine (8-OHdG), as well as plasma micronutrients and urinary arsenic profiles on urothelial carcinoma (UC) risk. Urinary 8-OHdG was measured using high-sensitivity enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits. The urinary arsenic species were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography and hydride generator-atomic absorption spectrometry. Plasma micronutrient levels were analyzed using reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography. The present study showed a significant protective effect of plasma alpha-tocopherol on UC risk. Plasma alpha-tocopherol levels were significantly inversely related to urinary total arsenic concentrations and inorganic arsenic percentage (InAs%), and significantly positively related to dimethylarsinic acid percentage (DMA%). There were no correlations between plasma micronutrients and urinary 8-OHdG. Study participants with lower alpha-tocopherol and higher urinary total arsenic, higher InAs%, higher MMA%, and lower DMA% had a higher UC risk than those with higher alpha-tocopherol and lower urinary total arsenic, lower InAs%, lower MMA%, and higher DMA%. These results suggest that plasma alpha-tocopherol might modify the risk of inorganic arsenic-related UC.

DNA adduct 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine, a novel putative marker of prognostic significance in ovarian carcinoma.
    International journal of gynecological cancer : official journal of the International Gynecological Cancer Society, 2009, Volume: 19, Issue:6

    Previous studies have suggested the importance of reactive oxygen species in all the steps of carcinogenesis. Antioxidant enzymes are considered as the most specific and efficient way to protect cells from reactive oxygen species. The purpose of the current study was to identify the role of oxidative stress and major antioxidant enzymes in ovarian carcinomas.. The material consisted of 68 invasive ovarian carcinomas which were studied by immunohistochemistry with antibodies to antioxidant enzymes peroxiredoxins (Prxs) I-VI and thioredoxin and oxidative stress markers nitrotyrosine and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). Both the intensity and the extent of the stainings were assessed, and the nuclear and cytoplasmic expressions were evaluated separately.. The study revealed the hydroxyl radical-derived oxidative stress marker in DNA, 8-OHdG, to be a powerful prognostic factor in ovarian carcinoma (Kaplan-Meier survival log-rank-analysis P = 0.003; risk of death to ovarian carcinoma 2.69; 95% confidence interval 1.35-5.35. 8-OHdG was also associated with poor differentiation (P = 0.053), higher stage (P < 0.001), and non-optimal surgical outcome (P = 0.002). High cytoplasmic Prx IV immunostaining was associated with a better prognosis (P = 0.024), and elevated cytoplasmic expression rates of Prxs V (P = 0.043) and VI (P = 0.032) were associated with a higher stage.. To conclude, it appears that hydroxyl radical-derived oxidative stress, but not nitric oxide radical-derived oxidative stress, plays a significant role in ovarian carcinogenesis. Immunohistochemical assessment of 8-OHdG could provide a useful prognostic marker in ovarian cancer.
