[PMID: 39051223 PMCID: PMC11270384 DOI: 10.3390/pathophysiology31030026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 07/02/2024] [Accepted: 07/03/2024] [Indexed: 07/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Obesity is a big public health problem that claims several thousand lives every year. Bariatric surgery has arisen as a suitable procedure for treating obesity, particularly morbid obesity. Oxidative stress, genotoxicity, apoptosis, and inflammatory responses are recognized as the most important occurrences in carcinogenesis, as they actively contribute to the multistep process. This study aimed to briefly review the connection between oxidative stress, genotoxicity, apoptosis, and inflammation in obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery, focusing on its impact on carcinogenesis. Regarding oxidative stress, bariatric surgery may inhibit the synthesis of reactive oxygen species. Moreover, a significant reduction in the inflammatory status after weight loss surgery was not observed. Bariatric surgery prevents apoptosis in several tissues, but the maintenance of low body weight for long periods is mandatory for mitigating DNA damage. In conclusion, the association between bariatric surgery and cancer risk is still premature. However, further studies are yet needed to elucidate the real association between bariatric surgery and a reduced risk of cancer.

Abstract
Preserving genome stability is essential to prevent aging and cancer. Dietary restriction (DR) is the most reproducible non-pharmacological way to improve health and extend lifespan in various species. Whether DR helps to preserve genome stability and whether this effect is altered by experimental variables remain unclear. Moreover, DR research relies heavily on experimental animals, making the development of reliable in vitro mimetics of great interest. Therefore, we tested the effects of sex and feeding regimen (time-restricted eating, alternate day fasting and calorie restriction) on genome stability in CF-1 mice and whether these effects can be recapitulated by cell culture paradigms. Here, we show that calorie restriction significantly decreases the spontaneous micronuclei (MN), a biomarker of genome instability, in bone marrow cells of females instead of males. Alternate day fasting significantly decreases cisplatin-induced MN in females instead of males. Unexpectedly, daily time-restricted eating significantly exacerbates cisplatin-induced MN in males but not in females. Additionally, we design several culture paradigms that are able to faithfully recapitulate the key effects of these DR regimens on genome stability. In particular, 30% reduction of serum, a mimetic of calorie restriction, exhibits a strong ability to decrease spontaneous and cisplatin-induced MN in immortalized human umbilical vein endothelial cells. We conclude that the effects of different DR regimens on genome stability are not universal and females from each diet regimen sustain a more stable genome than males. Our results provide novel insight into the understanding of how DR influences genome stability in a sex and regimen dependent way, and suggest that our in vitro DR mimetics could be adopted to study the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Obesity-related genomic instability and altered xenobiotic metabolism: possible consequences for cancer risk and chemotherapy. Expert Rev Mol Med 2022; 24:e28.

Abstract
The increase in the prevalence of obesity has led to an elevated risk for several associated diseases including cancer. Several studies have investigated the DNA damage in human blood samples and showed a clear trend towards increased DNA damage in obesity. Reduced genomic stability is thus one of the consequences of obesity, which may contribute to the related cancer risk. Whether this is influenced by compromised DNA repair has not been elucidated sufficiently yet. On the other hand, obesity has also been linked to reduced therapy survival and increased adverse effects during chemotherapy, although the available data are controversial. Despite some indications that obesity might alter hepatic metabolism, current literature in humans is insufficient, and results from animal studies are inconclusive. Here we have summarised published data on hepatic drug metabolism to understand the impact of obesity on cancer therapy better. Furthermore, we highlight knowledge gaps in the interrelationship between obesity and drug metabolism from a toxicological perspective.

Chromosomal Aberrations and Oxidative Stress in Psoriatic Patients with and without Metabolic Syndrome. Metabolites 2022; 12:metabo12080688.

Abstract
Psoriasis and metabolic syndrome (MetS), a common comorbidity of psoriasis, are associated with mild chronic systemic inflammation that increases oxidative stress and causes cell and tissue damage. At the cellular level, chromosomal and DNA damage has been documented, thus confirming their genotoxic effect. The main objective of our study was to show the genotoxic potential of chronic inflammation and determine whether the presence of both pathologies increases chromosomal damage compared to psoriasis alone and to evaluate whether there are correlations between selected parameters and chromosomal aberrations in patients with psoriasis and MetS psoriasis. Clinical examination (PASI score and MetS diagnostics according to National Cholesterol Education Expert Panel on Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Cholesterol in Adults; NCE/ATPIII criteria), biochemical analysis of blood samples (fasting glucose, total cholesterol, low density and high density lipoproteins; LDL, HDL, non-HDL, and triglycerides;TAG), DNA/RNA oxidative damage, and chromosomal aberration test were performed in 41 participants (20 patients with psoriasis without MetS and 21 with MetS and psoriasis). Our results showed that patients with psoriasis without metabolic syndrome (nonMetS) and psoriasis and MetS had a higher rate of chromosomal aberrations than the healthy population for which the limit of spontaneous, natural aberration was <2%. No significant differences in the aberration rate were found between the groups. However, a higher aberration rate (higher than 10%) and four numerical aberrations were documented only in the MetS group. We found no correlations between the number of chromosomal aberrations and the parameters tested except for the correlation between aberrations and HDL levels in nonMetS patients (rho 0.44; p < 0.02). Interestingly, in the MetS group, a higher number of chromosomal aberrations was documented in non-smokers compared to smokers. Data from our current study revealed an increased number of chromosomal aberrations in patients with psoriasis and MetS compared to the healthy population, especially in psoriasis with MetS, which could increase the genotoxic effect of inflammation and the risk of genomic instability, thus increasing the risk of carcinogenesis.

Abstract
The comet assay is widely used for quantification of genomic damage in humans. Peripheral blood derived mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are the most often used cell type for this purpose. Since the comet assay can be performed in an enhanced throughput format, it can be applied to large sample collections such as biobanks. The European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) study is one of the largest existing prospective cohort studies, and the German Cancer Research Institute (DKFZ) in Heidelberg is a participating center with 25.000 frozen blood samples stored from around 25 years ago, enabling retrospective assessment of disease risk factors. However, experience with decades long frozen samples in the comet assay is so far missing. In Heidelberg, 800 study participants were re-invited twice between 2010 and 2012 to donate further blood samples. Here, we analyzed 299 Heidelberg-EPIC samples, compiled from frozen PBMC and buffy coat preparations selected from the different sampling time points. In addition, 47 frozen PBMC samples from morbidly obese individuals were included. For buffy coat samples, we observed a poor correlation between DNA damage in the same donors assessed at two sampling time points. Additionally, no correlation between DNA damage in buffy coat samples and PBMCs was found. For PBMCs, a good correlation was observed between samples of the same donors at the two time points. DNA damage was not affected by age and smoking status, but high BMI (>30; obesity) was associated with increased DNA damage in PBMCs. There was no indication for a threshold of a certain BMI for increased DNA damage. In conclusion, while 25 year-long stored buffy coat preparations may require adaptation of certain experimental parameters such as cell density and electrophoresis conditions, frozen PBMC biobank samples can be analyzed in the comet assay even after a decade of storage.

Abstract
Micronucleus (MN) analyses in peripheral blood lymphocytes and exfoliated cells from different organs (mouth, nose, bladder and cervix) are at present the most widely used approaches to detect damage of genetic material in humans. MN are extranuclear DNA-containing bodies, which can be identified microscopically. They reflect structural and numerical chromosomal aberrations and are formed as a consequence of exposure to occupational, environmental and lifestyle genotoxins. They are also induced as a consequence of inadequate intake of certain trace elements and vitamins. High MN rates are associated with increased risk of cancer and a range of non-cancer diseases in humans. Furthermore, evidence is accumulating that measurements of MN could be a useful tool for the diagnosis and prognosis of different forms of cancer and other diseases (inflammation, infections, metabolic disorders) and for the assessment of the therapeutic success of medical treatments. Recent reviews of the current state of knowledge suggest that many clinical studies have methodological shortcomings. This could lead to controversial findings and limits their usefulness in defining the impact of exposure concentrations of hazardous chemicals, for the judgment of remediation strategies, for the diagnosis of diseases and for the identification of protective or harmful dietary constituents. This article describes important quality criteria for human MN studies and contains recommendations for acceptable study designs. Important parameters that need more attention include sufficiently large group sizes, adequate duration of intervention studies, the exclusion of confounding factors which may affect the results (sex, age, body mass index, nutrition, etc.), the evaluation of appropriate cell numbers per sample according to established scoring criteria as well as the use of proper stains and adequate statistical analyses.

Abstract
Obese subjects have a high baseline of genotoxic stress, but the underlying mechanism is poorly understood. Given that obesity is associated with high bile acids (BA) and low folate, we aimed to determine the interactive effect of folate deficient or supplementation to the genotoxicity and cytotoxicity of BA in human colon and liver cells. NCM460 and L-02 cells were cultured in folate deficient (22.6 nM) and replete (2260 nM) RPMI 1640 medium with or without 50 μM deoxycholic acid (DCA) or lithocholic acid (LCA) for 7 days. Moreover, these cells were cultured in folate supplemented (5.65, 11.3 and 22.6 μM) and standard (2.26 μM) medium with 200 μM DCA or LCA for 7 days. Genotoxicity and cytotoxicity were measured using the cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome assay. Our results showed that under folate-replete condition, 50 μM DCA or LCA significantly increased the rate of micronuclei in NCM460 and L-02 cells. Significantly, the micronuclei-inducing effect of 50 μM DCA or LCA was further enhanced by folate deficiency. Interestingly, folate supplementation exerted a dose-dependent manner to significantly decrease the rates of micronuclei, nucleoplasmic bridges, nuclear buds, apoptosis and necrosis induced by 200 μM DCA or LCA in NCM460 and L-02 cells. In conclusion, the genotoxicity of moderate BA (50 μM) was exacerbated by folate deficiency and folate supplementation could efficiently protect cells against the genotoxicity and cytotoxicity of high BA (200 μM).

Impact of dietary and lifestyle interventions in elderly or people diagnosed with diabetes, metabolic disorders, cardiovascular disease, cancer and micronutrient deficiency on micronuclei frequency - A systematic review and meta-analysis. MUTATION RESEARCH-REVIEWS IN MUTATION RESEARCH 2021; 787:108367.

Abstract
Chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes or cancer are the global leading cause of mortality. Lifestyle interventions are most effective in reducing metabolic risk factors, disease progression or even side effects of a disease. They are also contributing to decelerate the aging process. Genome instability is very often associated with aging or the above-mentioned diseases, and triggered by inflammation and oxidative stress. An established method to measure chromosomal damage is the cytokinesis block micronucleus (CBMN) cytome assay. The aim of this review and meta-analysis is to collect and analyse the current literature regarding the effects of a lifestyle based (dietary) intervention on changes of micronuclei (MNi), nucleoplasmic bridges (NPBs) and nuclear buds (NBUDs) in elderly subjects or people diagnosed with diabetes, metabolic disorders, cardiovascular disease, cancer or micronutrient deficiency. Although the main important diseases were considered as well as the large topic of aging, the number and methodological quality in terms of samples size, duration and rationale of the intervention or an inclusion of a control group of available intervention studies with these backgrounds was low. Most of the studies used antioxidant vitamins or folate, few investigated the whole diet. Only one study showed a physical activity intervention approach. The interventions did not lead to decreased genomic marker despite a few cancer related studies, where particularly MN frequency in mucosa lesions and leukoplakia was reduced by green tea and antioxidants. The performed meta-analysis of the available RCTs did not show a significant reduction of MNi, NBUDs or NPBs of most of the interventions performed, except for green tea. Data show in general a lack of an appropriate number of sound lifestyle based intervention studies linking cytogenetic damage and chronic diseases.

Abstract
Regional changes to the intestinal microenvironment brought about by Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery may contribute to some of its potent systemic metabolic benefits through favorably regulating various local cellular processes. Here, we show that the intestinal contents of RYGB-operated compared with sham-operated rats region-dependently confer superior glycemic control to recipient germ-free mice in association with suppression of endotoxemia. Correspondingly, they had direct barrier-stabilizing effects on an intestinal epithelial cell line which, bile-exposed intestinal contents, were partly farnesoid X receptor (FXR)-dependent. Further, circulating fibroblast growth factor 19 levels, a readout of intestinal FXR activation, negatively correlated with endotoxemia severity in longitudinal cohort of RYGB patients. These findings suggest that various host- and/or microbiota-derived luminal factors region-specifically and synergistically stabilize the intestinal epithelial barrier following RYGB through FXR signaling, which could potentially be leveraged to better treat endotoxemia-induced insulin resistance in obesity in a non-invasive and more targeted manner.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases show an increase in prevalence and incidence, with the most prominent example being Alzheimer’s disease. DNA damage has been suggested to play a role in the pathogenesis, but the exact mechanisms remain elusive. We enrolled 425 participants with and without neurodegenerative diseases and analyzed DNA damage in the form of micronuclei in buccal mucosa samples. In addition, other parameters such as binucleated cells, karyolytic cells, and karyorrhectic cells were quantified. No relevant differences in DNA damage and cytotoxicity markers were observed in patients compared to healthy participants. Furthermore, other parameters such as lifestyle factors and diseases were also investigated. Overall, this study could not identify a direct link between changes in buccal cells and neurogenerative diseases, but highlights the influence of lifestyle factors and diseases on the human buccal cytome.

Abstract
Increased oxidative stress in obesity and diabetes is associated with morbidity and mortality risks. Levels of oxidative damage to DNA and RNA can be estimated through measurement of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2´-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (8-oxoGuo) in urine. Both markers have been associated with type 2 diabetes, where especially 8-oxoGuo is prognostic for mortality risk. We hypothesized that Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) surgery that has considerable effects on bodyweight, hyperglycemia and mortality, might be working through mechanisms that reduce oxidative stress, thereby reducing levels of the urinary markers. We used liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry to analyze the content of 8-oxodG and 8-oxoGuo in urinary samples from 356 obese patients treated with the RYGB-procedure. Mean age (SD) was 44.2 (9.6) years, BMI was 42.1 (5.6) kg/m2. Ninety-six (27%) of the patients had type 2 diabetes. Excretion levels of each marker before and after surgery were compared as estimates of the total 24-hour excretion, using a model based on glomerular filtration rate (calculated from cystatin C, age, height and weight), plasma- and urinary creatinine. The excretion of 8-oxodG increased in the first months after RYGB. For 8-oxoGuo, a gradual decrease was seen. Two years after RYGB and a mean weight loss of 35 kg, decreased hyperglycemia and insulin resistance, excretion levels of both markers were reduced by approximately 12% (P < 0.001). For both markers, mean excretion levels were about 30% lower in the female subgroup (P < 0.0001). Also, in this subgroup, excretion of 8-oxodG was significantly lower in patients with than without diabetes. We conclude, that oxidative damage to nucleic acids, reflected in the excretion of 8-oxodG and 8-oxoGuo, had decreased significantly two years after RYGB-indicating that reduced oxidative stress could be contributing to the many long-term benefits of RYGB-surgery in obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Coronary angiography allows an accurate assessment of the extent and severity of atherosclerotic coronary narrowing, but it provides little characterization of early detection of potentially asymptomatic vulnerable plaque. The identification of the coronary "vulnerable patient" or high-risk plaques remains a major challenge in the treatment of CAD. Recently, growing evidence shows that DNA damage plays a role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerotic plaque. Cytokinesis-block micronucleus (CBMN) assay is one of the most frequently used and validated method for assessing chromosomal damage and genetic instability. Accordingly, the purpose of this systematic review was to retrieve and discuss existing literature on the studies assessing the association between MN and angiographically-proven CAD. A total of 8 studies published between 2001 and 2017 were included in the meta-analysis. Despite a large heterogeneity between studies (I2= 99.7 %, p < 0.0001), an overall increase of MN frequencies was found in patients with CAD compared with control group (meta-MR = 1.96; 95 % CI, 1.5-3.2, p = 0.009). A subgroup analysis showed an increase in the frequency of MN formation for both two- vessel (MR = 2.13, 95 % CI: 0.9-6.9, p = 0.08) and three-vessel disease (MR = 2.89, 95 % CI: 1.84-4.55, P = 0.06). Overall, the results of this meta-analysis provide evidence of an association between CBMN and presence, extent and severity of angiographically-assessed CAD. However, the small number of papers analyzed requires further large and more rigorously designed studies, carefully considering a series of clinical confounding factors, such as the quality of the metabolic control, the influence of drugs and radiation imaging treatments.

Abstract
Obesity is associated with elevated cancer risk, which may be represented by elevated genomic damage. Oxidative stress plays a key role in obesity related detrimental health consequences including DNA oxidation damage. The elevated cancer risk in obesity may be a consequence. Weight loss has been shown to reduce genomic damage, but the role of oxidative stress in that has not been clarified. The aim of this study is therefore to investigate the influence of bariatric surgery induced weight loss on DNA oxidation damage in morbidly obese subjects. For this aim, we used cryopreserved peripheral blood mononuclear cells in the FPG comet assay. Advanced protein oxidation products and 3-nitrotyrosine were measured as oxidative and nitrative protein stress markers. Furthermore, expression of oxidative stress related proteins HSP70 and Nrf2 as well as mitochondrial enzyme citrate synthase and NADPH oxidase subunit p22 phox were analysed. Our findings revealed significantly reduced DNA strand breaks, but DNA base oxidation was not reduced. We observed significant reduction in plasma AOPPs and 3-nitrotyrosine, which indicated an improvement in oxidative/nitrative stress. However, expression of HSP70 and Nrf2 were not altered after weight loss. In addition, expression of citrate synthase and p22 phox were also unaltered. Overall, bariatric surgery induced significant reduction in excess body weight and improved the patients' health status, including reduced DNA strand breaks and slightly improved antioxidant status in some of the investigated endpoints, while cellular ROS formation and DNA oxidation damage stayed unaltered. This complex situation may be due to combined beneficial effects of weight loss and burdening of the body with fat breakdown products. In the future, collecting samples two years after surgery, when patients have been in a weight plateau for some time, might be a promising approach.

Abstract
Obesity has been recognized to increase the risk of such diseases as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and cancer. It indicates that obesity can impact genome stability. Oxidative stress and inflammation, commonly occurring in obesity, can induce DNA damage and inhibit DNA repair mechanisms. Accumulation of DNA damage can lead to an enhanced mutation rate and can alter gene expression resulting in disturbances in cell metabolism. Obesity-associated DNA damage can promote cancer growth by favoring cancer cell proliferation and migration, and resistance to apoptosis. Estimation of the DNA damage and/or disturbances in DNA repair could be potentially useful in the risk assessment and prevention of obesity-associated metabolic disorders as well as cancers. DNA damage in people with obesity appears to be reversible and both weight loss and improvement of dietary habits and diet composition can affect genome stability.
