Body iron is a contributor to oxidative damage of DNA.
The transition metal iron is catalytically highly active in vitro, and not surprisingly, body iron has been suggested to promote oxidative stress in vivo. In the current analysis we studied the association of serum ferritin concentration and serum soluble transferrin receptor concentration with daily urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine excretion, a marker of oxidative stress, in 48 mildly dyslipide...
متن کاملPancreatic Cancer is Associated with Peripheral Leukocyte Oxidative DNA Damage
Background: DNA damage accumulation has been linked to the cancer phenotype. The purpose of this study was to compare the levels of DNA base 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and C-reactive protein (CRP) inflammatory markers in healthy controls and pancreatic cancer patients from a hospital-based case-control study. Materials and Methods: Fifty-five pancreatic cancer patients and 55 healthy ...
متن کاملNormal oxidative damage to mitochondrial and nuclear DNA is extensive.
Oxidative damage to DNA can be caused by excited oxygen species, which are produced by radiation or are by-products of aerobic metabolism. The oxidized base, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (oh8dG), 1 of approximately 20 known radiation damage products, has been assayed in the DNA of rat liver. oh8dG is present at a level of 1 per 130,000 bases in nuclear DNA and 1 per 8000 bases in mtDNA. Mitochondria...
متن کاملOGG1 DNA Repair Gene Polymorphism As a Biomarker of Oxidative and Genotoxic DNA Damage
Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms in 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) gene modulates DNA repair capacity and functions as one of the first lines of protective mechanisms against 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) mutagenicity. OGG1-Cys326 gene polymorphism may decrease DNA repair function, causing oxidative stress due to higher oxidative DNA damage. The main purpose of this stu...
متن کاملQuercetin Protects DNA from Oxidative Damage in Diabetics
Quercetin Protects DNA from Oxidative Damage in Diabetics Diabetics have reduced antioxidant defenses and an increased risk for free-radical mediated conditions such as heart disease and retinopathy. Quercetin, a dietary flavonoid with antioxidant properties, has been shown to protect retinal pigment epithelial and cortical cells during oxidative stress in vitro1, and to inhibit tyrosine kinase...
