Enhanced Susceptibility of Ogg1 Mutant Mice to Multiorgan Carcinogenesis
The role of deficiency of oxoguanine glycosylase 1 (Ogg1) Mmh homolog, a repair enzyme of the 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) residue in DNA, was investigated using the multiorgan carcinogenesis bioassay in mice. A total of 80 male and female six-week-old mice of C57BL/6J background carrying a mutant Mmh allele of the Mmh/Ogg1 gene (Ogg1-/-) and wild type (Ogg1+/+) mice were administered N...
متن کامل8-Oxoguanine formation induced by chronic UVB exposure makes Ogg1 knockout mice susceptible to skin carcinogenesis.
8-Oxoguanine is one of the oxidative DNA damages that can result in stable mutations. The Ogg1 gene encodes the repair enzyme 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase, which removes the oxidized base from DNA. In this study, we investigated the role of 8-oxoguanine in skin carcinogenesis induced by UVB irradiation using Ogg1 knockout mice (C57Bl/6J background). We examined the effect of UVB irradiation on ...
متن کاملProgression of Hepatic Adenoma to Carcinoma in Ogg1 Mutant Mice Induced by Phenobarbital
The carcinogenic potential of phenobarbital (PB) was assessed in a mouse line carrying a mutant Mmh allele of the Mmh/Ogg1 gene encoding the enzyme oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (Ogg1) responsible for the repair of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). Mmh homozygous mutant (Ogg1-/-) and wild-type (Ogg1+/+) male and female, 10-week-old, mice were treated with 500 ppm PB in diet for 78 weeks. Hepat...
متن کاملIncreased Susceptibility to Skin Carcinogenesis in TREX2 Knockout Mice.
TREX2 is a proofreading 3'-5' exonuclease that can be involved in genome maintenance; however, its biological role remains undefined. To better understand the function and physiologic relevance of TREX2, we generated mice deficient in TREX2 by targeted disruption of its unique coding exon. The knockout mice are viable and do not show relevant differences in growth, survival, lymphocyte developm...
متن کاملSusceptibility to vascular neoplasms but no increased susceptibility to renal carcinogenesis in Vhl knockout mice.
The von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor gene plays a prominent role in the development of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in humans. VHL functions as a ubiquitin E3 ligase, controlling the stability of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) and tumor angiogenesis. Alterations in this tumor suppressor gene are rarely observed in spontaneous or chemically induced RCC that arise in conventional strains of...
