Abstract
BACKGROUND The effective maintenance of genome integrity and fidelity is vital for the normal function of our tissues and organs, and the prevention of diseases. DNA repair pathways maintain genome stability, and the adequacy of genes acting in these pathways is essential for disease suppression and direct treatment responses. Chronic kidney disease is characterized by high levels of genomic damage. In this study, we examined the expression levels of the xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) gene, which plays a role in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) repair mechanism, and the expression levels of miR-145 and miR-770 genes, which play a role in the regulation of the expression of the XPD gene, in hemodialysis patients with (n = 42) and without malignancy (n = 9) in pre- and post-dialysis conditions. We also evaluated these values with the clinical findings of the patients. METHODS & RESULTS Gene expression analysis was performed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Compared to the individuals with normal kidney function (2.06 ± 0.32), the XPD gene expression was lower in the pre-dialysis condition both in hemodialysis patients without cancer (1.24 ± 0.18; p = 0.02) and in hemodialysis patients with cancer (0.82 ± 0.114; p = 0.001). On the other hand, we found that miR-145 and miR-770 expression levels were high in both groups. We also found that expression levels were affected by dialysis processes. A statistically significant positive correlation was found between miR-145 and mir770 expression levels in the pre-dialysis group of patients with (r=-0.988. p = 0.0001) and without (r=-0.934. p = 0.0001) malignancy. CONCLUSIONS Studies on DNA damage repair in the kidney will help develop strategies to protect kidney function against kidney diseases.

Shao G, Himmelfarb J, Hinds BJ. Strategies for optimizing urea removal to enable portable kidney dialysis: A reappraisal. Artif Organs 2022; 46:997-1011. [PMID: 35383963 DOI: 10.1111/aor.14185] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/02/2021] [Revised: 12/23/2021] [Accepted: 01/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Portable hemodialysis has the potential to improve health outcomes and quality of life for patients with kidney failure at reduced costs. Urea removal, required for dialysate regeneration, is a central function of any existing/potential portable dialysis device. Urea in the spent dialysate coexists with non-urea uremic toxins, nutrients, and electrolytes, all of which will interfere with the urea removal efficiency, regardless of whether the underlying urea removal mechanism is based on urease conversion, direct urea adsorption, or oxidation. The aim of the current review is to identify the amount of the most prevalent chemicals being removed during a single dialysis session and evaluate the potential benefits of an urea-selective membrane for portable dialysis. METHODS We have performed a literature search using Web of Science and PubMed databases to find available articles reporting (or be able to calculate from blood plasma concentration) > 5 mg of individually quantified solutes removed during thrice-weekly hemodialysis sessions. If multiple reports of the same solute were available, the reported values were averaged, and the geometric mean of standard deviations was taken. Further critical literature analysis of reported dialysate regeneration methods was performed using Web of Science and PubMed databases. RESULTS On average, 46.0 g uremic retention solutes are removed in a single conventional dialysis session, out of which urea is only 23.6 g. For both urease- and sorbent-based urea removal mechanisms, amino acids, with 7.7 g removal per session, could potentially interfere with urea removal efficiency. Additionally for the oxidation-based urea removal system, plentiful nutrients such as glucose (24.0 g) will interfere with urea removal by competition. Using a nanofiltration membrane between dialysate and oxidation unit with a molecular weight cutoff (MWCO) of ~200 Da, 67.6 g of non-electrolyte species will be removed in a single dialysis session, out of which 44.0 g are non-urea molecules. If the membrane MWCO is further decreased to 120 Da, the mass of non-electrolyte non-urea species will drop to 9.3 g. Reverse osmosis membranes have been shown to be both effective at blocking the transport of non-urea species (creatinine for example with ~90% rejection ratio), and permissive for urea transport (~20% rejection ratio), making them a promising urea selective membrane to increase the efficiency of the oxidative urea removal system. CONCLUSIONS Compiled are quantified solute removal amounts greater than 5 mg per session during conventional hemodialysis treatments, to act as a guide for portable dialysis system design. Analysis shows that multiple chemical species in the dialysate interfere with all proposed portable urea removal systems. This suggests the need for an additional protective dialysate loop coupled to urea removal system and an urea-selective membrane.

Microvasculopathy-Related Hemorrhagic Tissue Deposition of Iron May Contribute to Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis: Hypothesis-Generating Insights from the Literature and Preliminary Findings.

Abstract
Microvascular wall abnormalities demonstrated by nailfold capillaroscopy in systemic sclerosis (SSc) may result in microhemorrhagic deposition of erythrocyte-derived iron. Such abnormalities precede fibrosis, which is orchestrated by myofibroblasts. Iron induces endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition in vitro, which is reversed by reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavengers. The conversion of quiescent fibroblasts into profibrotic myofibroblasts has also been associated with ROS-mediated activation of TGF-β1. Given that iron overload predisposes to ROS formation, we hypothesized that the uptake of erythrocyte-derived iron by resident cells promotes fibrosis. Firstly, we show that iron induces oxidative stress in skin-derived and synovial fibroblasts in vitro, as well as in blood mononuclear cells ex vivo. The biological relevance of increased oxidative stress was confirmed by showing the concomitant induction of DNA damage in these cell types. Similar results were obtained in vivo, following intravenous iron administration. Secondly, using magnetic resonance imaging we show an increased iron deposition in the fingers of a patient with early SSc and nailfold microhemorrhages. While a systematic magnetic resonance study to examine tissue iron levels in SSc, including internal organs, is underway, herein we propose that iron may be a pathogenetic link between microvasculopathy and fibrosis and an additional mechanism responsible for increased oxidative stress in SSc.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease is considered as a serious obstacle in global health, with increasing incidence and prevalence. In spite of numerous attempts by using recent omics technologies, specially metabolomics, for understanding pathophysiology, molecular mechanism and identification reliable consensus biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of this complex disease, the current biomarkers are still insensitive and many questions about its pathomechanism are still to be unanswered. This review is focused on recent findings about urine and serum/plasma metabolite biomarkers and changes in the pathways that occurs in the disease conditions. The urine and blood metabolome content in the normal and disease state is investigated based on the current metabolomics studies and well known metabolite candidate biomarkers for chronic kidney disease are discussed.

Abstract
Oxidative stress (OS) is the result of prooxidant molecules overwhelming the antioxidant defense mechanisms. Hemodialysis (HD) constitutes a state of elevated inflammation and OS, due to loss of antioxidants during dialysis and activation of white blood cells triggering production of reactive oxygen species. Dialysis vintage, dialysis methods, and type and condition of vascular access, biocompatibility of dialyzer membrane and dialysate, iron administration, and anemia all can play a role in aggravating OS, which in turn has been associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Oral or intravenous administration of antioxidants may detoxify the oxidative molecules and at least in part repair OS-mediated tissue damage. Lifestyle interventions and optimization of a highly biocompatible HD procedure might ameliorate OS development in dialysis.

Abstract
Hemodialysis (HD) patients are at high risk for all-cause mortality and cardiovascular events. In addition to traditional risk factors, excessive oxidative stress (OS) and chronic inflammation emerge as novel and major contributors to accelerated atherosclerosis and elevated mortality. OS is defined as the imbalance between antioxidant defense mechanisms and oxidant products, the latter overwhelming the former. OS appears in early stages of chronic kidney disease (CKD), advances along with worsening of renal failure, and is further exacerbated by the HD process per se. HD patients manifest excessive OS status due to retention of a plethora of toxins, subsidized under uremia, nutrition lacking antioxidants and turn-over of antioxidants, loss of antioxidants during renal replacement therapy, and leukocyte activation that leads to accumulation of oxidative products. Duration of dialysis therapy, iron infusion, anemia, presence of central venous catheter, and bioincompatible dialyzers are several factors triggering the development of OS. Antioxidant supplementation may take an overall protective role, even at early stages of CKD, to halt the deterioration of kidney function and antagonize systemic inflammation. Unfortunately, clinical studies have not yielded unequivocal positive outcomes when antioxidants have been administered to hemodialysis patients, likely due to their heterogeneous clinical conditions and underlying risk profile.

Abstract
End-stage renal disease patients present oxidative stress status that increases when they are submitted to hemodialysis (HD). This increase in oxidative stress can affect their genetic material, among other targets. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of using polysulfone membranes coated with vitamin E, during the HD sessions, on the levels of genetic damage of HD patients. Forty-six patients were followed for 6 months, of whom 29 changed from conventional HD to the use of membranes coated with vitamin E. The level of genetic damage was measured using the micronucleus and the comet assays, both before and after the follow-up period. Serum vitamin E concentration was also checked. The obtained results showed that 24% of our patients presented vitamin E deficiency, and this was normalized in those patients treated with vitamin E-coated membranes. Patients with vitamin E deficiency showed higher levels of oxidative DNA damage. After the use of vitamin E-coated membranes we detected a significant decrease in the levels of oxidative damage. Additionally, hemoglobin values increased significantly with the use of vitamin E-coated membranes. In conclusion, the use of vitamin E-coated membranes supposes a decrease on the levels of oxidative DNA damage, and improves the uremic anemia status. Furthermore, the use of this type of membrane was also effective in correcting vitamin E deficiency.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases remain the most frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The aim of the study was to assess the association between oxidative stress biomarkers and cardiovascular risk factors and left ventricular hypertrophy in children with CKD. Material and Methods. The studied group consisted of 65 patients aged 1.4-18.6 (mean 11.2) years with stages 1 to 5 CKD. Serum oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), protein carbonyl group, creatinine, cystatin C, albumin, lipids, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, intercellular adhesion molecule-1, insulin, plasma renin activity, and aldosterone levels were measured. Patients were divided into groups depending on CKD stage. Anthropometric measurements, ambulatory blood pressure (BP) measurements, and echocardiography with left ventricular mass (LVM) calculation were performed. Results. Serum oxLDL strongly correlated with creatinine (R = 0.246; p = 0.048), cystatin C (R = 0.346; p = 0.006), total cholesterol (R = 0.500; p < 0.001), triglycerides (R = 0.524; p < 0.001), low-density lipoprotein concentrations (R = 0.456; p < 0.001), and 24 hour BP values of systolic (R = 0.492; p = 0.002), diastolic (R = 0.515; p < 0.001), and mean arterial pressure (R = 0.537; p < 0.001). A significant correlation between oxLDL levels and LVM z-scores (R = 0.299; p = 0.016) was found. Conclusions. Hypertension and dyslipidemia correlated with lipid oxidation in children with CKD. oxLDLs seem to be valuable markers of oxidative stress in CKD patients, correlating with left ventricular hypertrophy.

Abstract
Patients suffering from chronic kidney disease (CKD) exhibit a high incidence of cancer and cardiovascular diseases, as well as high levels of genomic damage. To confirm the association of CKD with genomic damage we have carried out the largest study to date addressing this issue, using a total of 602 subjects (187 controls, 206 pre-dialysis CKD patients and 209 CKD patients in hemodialysis). DNA oxidative damage was measured in all individuals using the comet assay. Our results indicate that CKD patients have significantly higher levels of DNA damage than controls, but no significant differences were observed between pre-hemodialysis (pre-HD) and hemodialysis (HD) patients. When oxidative damage was measured, no differences were observed between patients and controls, although HD patients showed significantly higher levels of oxidative damage than pre-HD patients. In addition, a positive relationship was demonstrated between genomic damage and all-cause mortality. Our study confirms that genomic damage can be predictive of prognosis in CKD patients, with high levels of DNA damage indicating a poor prognosis in HD patients.

Abstract
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) have signs of genomic instability and, as a consequence, extensive genetic damage, possibly due to accumulation of uraemic toxins, oxidative stress mediators and other endogenous substances with genotoxic properties. We explored factors associated with the presence and background levels of genetic damage in CKD. A cross-sectional study was performed in 91 CKD patients including pre-dialysis (CKD patients; n = 23) and patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD; n = 33) or haemodialysis (HD; n = 35) and with 61 healthy subjects, divided into two subgroups with the older group being in the age range of the patients, serving as controls. Alkaline comet assay and cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay in peripheral blood lymphocytes were used to determine DNA and chromosome damage, respectively, present in CKD. Markers of oxidative stress [malondialdehyde (MDA), advanced glycation end products (AGEs), thiols, advanced oxidation protein products and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine] and markers of inflammation (C-reactive protein, interleukin-6 and tumour necrosis factor alpha) were also measured. Micronucleus (MN) frequency was significantly higher (P < 0.05) in the CKD group (46±4‰) when compared with the older control (oC) group (27.7±14). A significant increase in MN frequency (P < 0.05) was also seen in PD patients (41.9±14‰) versus the oC group. There was no statistically significant difference for the HD group (29.7±15.6‰; P = NS) versus the oC group. Comet assay data showed a significant increase (P < 0.001) of tail DNA intensity in cells of patients with CKD (15.6±7%) with respect to the total control (TC) group (11±1%). PD patients (14.8±7%) also have a significant increase (P < 0.001) versus the TC group. Again, there was no statistically significant difference for the HD group (12.5±3%) compared with the TC group. Patients with MN values in the upper quartile had increased cholesterol, triglycerides, AGEs and MDA levels and lower albumin levels. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that male gender, diabetes and treatment modality were independently associated with higher levels of DNA damage. Our results suggest that oxidative stress, diabetes, gender and dialysis modality in CKD patients increased DNA and chromosome damage. To confirm these data, prospective clinical trials need to be performed.

Abstract
Objective A previous study by our research group evaluated the levels of DNA damage using the comet assay in hemodialysis patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The same blood samples were also evaluated using the cytochalasin B micronucleus assay. A comparison of the results of the two assays is presented here. Methods Whole blood samples were collected from 22 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients on hemodialysis and from 22 control subjects. Samples were collected from patients early in the morning on Mondays, before the first weekly hemodialysis session. The cytokinesis-block micronucleus assay (CBMN) was used to evaluate genomic instability. Results The frequencies of micronuclei and nuclear buds were higher in patients than in controls (p-value = 0.001 and p-value < 0.001, respectively). There was a correlation between the frequency of micronuclei and DNA damage with the results of the comet assay (p-value < 0.001). The difference in the frequency of micronuclei and nuclear buds between patients and controls was more pronounced in the group with higher median comet values than in the group with lower comet values. Conclusion Our results suggest that the increased rates of DNA damage as measured by the comet assay and influenced by the weekly routine therapy of these patients has a mutagenic effect, thereby increasing the risk of cancer in this group.

Abstract
An updated review of the existing knowledge regarding uremic toxins facilitates the design of experimental studies. We performed a literature search and found 621 articles about uremic toxicity published after a 2003 review of this topic. Eighty-seven records provided serum or blood measurements of one or more solutes in patients with CKD. These records described 32 previously known uremic toxins and 56 newly reported solutes. The articles most frequently reported concentrations of β2-microglobulin, indoxyl sulfate, homocysteine, uric acid, and parathyroid hormone. We found most solutes (59%) in only one report. Compared with previous results, more recent articles reported higher uremic concentrations of many solutes, including carboxymethyllysine, cystatin C, and parathyroid hormone. However, five solutes had uremic concentrations less than 10% of the originally reported values. Furthermore, the uremic concentrations of four solutes did not exceed their respective normal concentrations, although they had been previously described as uremic retention solutes. In summary, this review extends the classification of uremic retention solutes and their normal and uremic concentrations, and it should aid the design of experiments to study the biologic effects of these solutes in CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Iron supplementation is a common recommendation to chronic kidney disease patients undergoing hemodialysis (HD). However, iron excess is closely associated with lipid peroxidation and, it is well known that electronegative low-density lipoproteins (LDL[-]) are present at higher plasma concentrations in diseases with high cardiovascular risk such as chronic kidney disease. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate whether ferritin levels are associated with LDL(-) levels in HD patients. DESIGN This was a cross-sectional study. SETTING This study was conducted from a private clinic in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. PATIENTS The study included 27 HD patients and 15 healthy subjects. METHODS AND PROCEDURES Twenty-seven HD patients (14 men, 58.6 ± 10 years, 62.2 ± 51.4 months on dialysis, and body mass index: 24.4 ± 4.2 kg/m(2)) were studied and compared with 15 healthy individuals (6 men, 53.8 ± 15.4 years, body mass index: 24.5 ± 4.3 kg/m(2)). Serum LDL(-) levels were measured using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method; ferritin levels by commercially available kits, and tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1, and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 were determined with a multiplex assay kit manufactured by R&D Systems. RESULTS The HD patients presented higher LDL(-) and tumor necrosis factor-α levels (0.15 ± 0.13 U/L and 5.9 ± 2.3 pg/mL, respectively) than healthy subjects (0.07 ± 0.05 U/L and 2.3 ± 1.3 pg/mL, respectively) (P = .0001). The mean ferritin level in HD patients was 1,117.5 ± 610.4 ng/mL, and 90% of patients showed ferritin levels exceeding 500 ng/mL. We found a positive correlation between LDL(-) and ferritin in the patients (r = 0.48; P = .01), and ferritin was a significant contributor to LDL(-) concentrations independent of inflammation. CONCLUSIONS Excess body iron stores for HD patients was associated with signs of increased oxidative stress, as reflected by increased LDL(-) levels in HD patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Angiotensin II (ANG II) and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) exert genotoxic effects in vitro which were prevented by the ANG II type 1 (AT1) receptor blocker, candesartan. In end-stage renal disease (ESRD) the incidence of genomic damage is increased. A stimulation of the renin-angiotensin system and accumulation of AGEs could be involved. METHODS We tested whether oral co-administration of candesartan modulates enhanced DNA damage in ESRD patients. Fifteen maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients with mild hypertension were treated with candesartan for 4.5 months. Fourteen MHD patients served as conventionally treated uremic controls. DNA damage was measured as micronucleus frequency (MNF) in peripheral blood lymphocytes and evaluated three times before candesartan therapy and afterwards every 6 weeks. RESULTS Compared to 14 healthy controls, MNF at baseline was significantly elevated in MHD patients. While in the conventionally treated MHD patients the enhanced DNA damage persisted, the co-administration of candesartan ameliorated the genomic damage significantly and independently of blood pressure changes. CONCLUSION Blockade of AT1 receptors with candesartan can reduce DNA damage in MHD patients. Long-term studies in larger patient groups are needed to investigate whether the improved genomic damage lowers atherosclerotic complications and cancer development.

Abstract
Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), whether on conservative, peritoneal or hemodialysis therapy, have elevated genomic damage in peripheral blood lymphocytes and an increased cancer incidence, especially of the kidney. The damage is possibly due to accumulation of uremic toxins like advanced glycation endproducts or homocysteine. However, other endogenous substances with genotoxic properties, which are increased in ESRD, could be involved, such as the blood pressure regulating hormones angiotensin II and aldosterone or the inflammatory cytokine TNF-α. This review provides an overview of genomic damage observed in ESRD patients, focuses on possible underlying causes and shows modulations of the damage by modern dialysis strategies and vitamin supplementation.

Abstract
Nonenzymatic modification of protein by cyanate, that is, carbamylation, has received new attention due to its apparent relevance in atherosclerosis. For example, carbamylation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) is an important mechanism that potentially impacts high-risk atherosclerotic individuals with increased urea (renal insufficiency) or thiocyanate (tobacco smoking). Carbamylated LDL (cLDL) is increased in patients with end-stage kidney disease, especially those with atherosclerosis. In addition, cLDL exhibits distinct cytotoxic effects when tested in vitro on endothelial cells, induces the expression of adhesion molecules, and aggravates the monocyte adhesion to endothelial cells. It also facilitates the proliferation of vascular smooth-muscle cell (VSMC). Studies of potential pharmacological interruption of these processes in vivo may lead to discoveries of novel therapies for atherosclerosis.

Abstract
A diet rich in fruits and vegetables is commonly perceived to be associated with reduced cancer risk, attributed to its high content of polyphenols. As apples represent a major polyphenol source in Western countries, we studied differentially produced extracts (1-100 microg/mL): two from different apple juices (AEs), one from pomace (APE), and one peel extract (PE) on their potential to reduce DNA oxidation damage and induce antioxidant defense in Caco-2 cells. Additionally, we measured direct antioxidant capacity (TEAC/ORAC) of the extracts. Quercetin-rich PE and APE most effectively diminished DNA damage and ROS level after 24 h incubation (PE > APE), whereas the AEs were only moderately effective. GPx activity was diminished for all extracts, with AEs > APE > PE. Direct antioxidant activity decreased in the order AEs > PE > APE, displaying no significant correlation with cellular markers. In conclusion, apple phenolics at low, nutritionally relevant concentrations may protect intestinal cells from ROS-induced DNA damage, mediated by cellular defense mechanisms rather than by antioxidant activity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Administration of intravenous iron preparations in haemodialysis patients may lead to the appearance of non-transferrin bound iron which can catalyse oxidative damage. We investigated this hypothesis by monitoring the oxidative stress of haemodialysis patients and the impact of iron and diabetes mellitus herein. MATERIALS AND METHODS Baseline values of serum iron and related proteins, transferrin glycation, non-transferrin bound iron, antioxidant capacity and lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde) of 11 haemodialysis patients (six non-diabetic and five type 2 diabetes) were compared to those of non-haemodialysis control subjects (non-diabetic and type 2 diabetes). Changes in these parameters were monitored during haemodialysis before and after iron administration. RESULTS Baseline values of malondialdehyde correlated with ferritin concentration (r = 0.664, P = 0.036) and were elevated to the same extent in non-diabetic and diabetic haemodialysis patients (median of 1.09 compared to 0.60 mumol/l in control persons, P < 0.02). After iron infusion, transferrin saturation increased more markedly in non-diabetic subjects from 28% to 185% vs. from 33% to 101% in diabetic patients (P = 0.008). This increase was accompanied by the appearance of non-transferrin bound iron (5.91 +/- 1.33 micromol/l), a loss in plasma iron-binding antioxidant capacity and a further increase in malondialdehyde which was more pronounced in diabetic patients (from 0.93 +/- 0.30 micromol/l to 2.21 +/- 0.69 micromol/l vs. from 1.21 +/- 0.42 micromol/l to 1.86 +/- 0.56 micromol/l in the non-diabetic subjects, P = 0.046). CONCLUSIONS In haemodialysis patients, higher lipid peroxidation is determined by higher body iron stores. The increase induced by iron infusion is accompanied by a loss in iron-binding antioxidant capacity and is more pronounced in diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
Iron exposure enhances colorectal carcinogeneis, by producing reactive oxygen species, which damage lipids, proteins and DNA. We recently demonstrated that ferric-nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) damages DNA of human colon cells in different stages of malignant transformation. Opposed to this, little is known on systemic effects of iron and it is still difficult to determine the border between essential iron supplementation and iron overload in humans. The aim of this study was to determine whether Fe-NTA causes global and specific DNA damage in peripheral leucocytes. Human leucocytes were treated in vitro with Fe-NTA for 30 min at 37 degrees C. Male Sprague Dawley rats were fed (6 weeks) with an iron-overload diet (9.9 g Fe/kg DM) and whole blood was collected. DNA damage was measured in human and rat blood cells using the alkaline version of the Comet Assay with repair specific enzymes. In human cells the distribution of TP53 in the comet images was detected using fluorescence in situ hybridization (Comet FISH) to measure DNA damage in the region of the TP53 gene. Fe-NTA (10-500 microM) was clearly genotoxic in human leucocytes in vitro, and also in leucocytes of rats fed the iron overload diet. The induced damage in human leucocytes was approximately two-fold that observed previously in human colon cells. Oxidized bases were induced by iron in rat leucocytes in vivo, while they were not induced in human leucocytes in vitro. Fe-NTA enhanced the migration of TP53 signals into the comet tail of human leucocytes, indicating a high susceptibility of this tumour-relevant gene towards DNA damage induced by iron overload. In conclusion, iron markedly induced DNA damage in human and rat leucocytes, which shows that these white blood cells are sufficiently sensitive to assess exposure to iron. The measurement of DNA damage in human leucocytes could be used as a sensitive biomarker to study iron overload in vivo in humans and thus to determine whether supplementation results in genotoxic risk.

Abstract
End stage renal disease (ESRD) patients accumulate blood hallmarks of protein glycation and oxidation. It is now well established that these protein damage products may represent a heterogeneous class of uremic toxins with pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidant properties. These toxins could be directly involved in the pathogenesis of the inflammatory syndrome and vascular complications, which are mainly sustained by the uremic state and bioincompatibility of dialysis therapy. A key underlying event in the toxicity of these proteinaceous solutes has been identified in scavenger receptor-dependent recognition and elimination by inflammatory and endothelial cells, which once activated generate further and even more pronounced protein injuries by a self-feeding mechanism based on inflammation and oxidative stress-derived events. This review examines the literature and provides original information on the techniques for investigating proteinaceous pro-inflammatory toxins. We have also evaluated therapeutic - either pharmacological or dialytic - strategies proposed to alleviate the accumulation of these toxins and to constrain the inflammatory and oxidative burden of ESRD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Oxidative stress (OS) is considered to play a major role in the development of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) complications. However, conflicting and inconsistent data have been reported on OS in ESRD patients. Our aim was to investigate the reliability of the most popular non-enzymatic plasma OS biomarkers in ESRD. METHODS Vitamins A (VitA), E and C (VitC), uric acid, plasma antioxidant and ferric-reducing potential (PAP and PRP), thiols (SH), malondialdehyde (MDA) and lipid hydroperoxides (HPO) were determined before and after dialysis in plasma from 33 ESRD patients on hemodialysis, hemodiafiltration or peritoneal dialysis and 20 control subjects. RESULTS In ESRD patients, high PRP and normal PAP values were positively correlated with VitC levels. After dialysis, PRP levels decreased, while unchanged PAP levels correlated positively with high VitA and transiently recovered SH values. All patients showed high levels of both MDA and cholesterol-normalized HPO. However, while the former significantly decreased after dialysis, the latter were unaffected by treatment. Paradoxical correlations of MDA with both VitA and HPO were found. CONCLUSIONS Plasma PRP and MDA levels may be dramatically affected by both uremia and dialysis; their use in ESRD patients may therefore lead to OS misevaluation and should be avoided. More reliable results can be obtained using physiologically relevant OS functional tests, such as PAP, and early biomarkers of OS damage, such as SH and HPO.

Abstract
In end-stage renal disease (ESRD) there is not only excessive morbidity and mortality due to cardiovascular disease but also an enhanced occurrence of various types of cancer. Both are characterized by oxidative stress and inflammation as two of the central underlying causes of the disease states. In cancer, genomic damage has been demonstrated to be of high pathogenetic relevance. DNA lesions may induce mutations of oncogenes and tumor-suppressor genes which, in the long-run, may lead to malignancies if mutagenicity is not mitigated by repair mechanisms. A high incidence of genomic damage in ESRD patients has been validated by various biomarkers of DNA lesions. We reviewed the mechanisms of DNA damage, focusing in particular on the role of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) which accumulate markedly in renal insufficiency. Considering the in vitro and in vivo findings to date, one has to assume a significant role of AGEs in DNA damage and the potential development of cancer.

Abstract
Administration of vitamin E in children with immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and type I diabetes demonstrated potential towards ameliorating progression. Oral vitamin E therapy reduced endothelial dysfunction, lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress in patients with chronic kidney failure (CKF). Moreover, the use of vitamin E-bonded hemodialyzers reduced atherosclerotic changes, erythropoietin dosage and muscular cramps in patients on hemodialysis (HD). However, several controlled clinical trials failed to document beneficial effects on the study subjects' cardiovascular and renal outcomes. A recent report of increased all-cause mortality in adult patients receiving high dose vitamin E therapy has caused considerable concern and debate. These issues regarding the efficacy and safety of vitamin E in renal therapeutic regimens will be reviewed in this article.

Abstract
Chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients increase erythrocyte susceptibility to hemolysis and impair cell survival. We explored whether electrolyte-reduced water (ERW) could palliate HD-evoked erythrocyte impairment and anemia. Forty-three patients undergoing chronic HD were enrolled and received ERW administration for 6 month. We evaluated oxidative stress in blood and plasma, erythrocyte methemoglobin (metHb)/ferricyanide reductase activity, plasma metHb, and proinflammatory cytokines in the chronic HD patients without treatment (n=15) or with vitamin C (VC)- (n=15), vitamin E (VE)-coated dialyzer (n=15), or ERW treatment (n=15) during an HD course. The patients showed marked increases (15-fold) in blood reactive oxygen species, mostly H(2)O(2), after HD without any treatment. HD resulted in decreased plasma VC, total antioxidant status, and erythrocyte metHb/ferricyanide reductase activity and increased erythrocyte levels of phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxide (PCOOH) and plasma metHb. Antioxidants treatment significantly palliated single HD course-induced oxidative stress, plasma and RBC PCOOH, and plasma metHb levels, and preserved erythrocyte metHb /ferricyanide reductase activity in an order VC>ERW>VE-coated dialyzer. However, ERW had no side effects of oxalate accumulation easily induced by VC. Six-month ERW treatment increased hematocrit and attenuated proinflammatory cytokines profile in the HD patients. In conclusion, ERW treatment administration is effective in palliating HD-evoked oxidative stress, as indicated by lipid peroxidation, hemolysis, and overexpression of proinflammatory cytokines in HD patients.

Abstract
Apple juice containing high amounts of antioxidative polyphenols might protect the intestine against oxidative cell damage. We investigated the preventive effectiveness of polyphenolic juice extracts of different origins (cider and table apples) in comparison to their major constituents in human colon cell lines (Caco-2, HT29). Parameters studied were (oxidative) DNA damage (Comet assay), glutathione level (photometric kinetic assay), cellular redox status (dichlorofluorescein assay) and antioxidant capacity. The extracts (50-250 microg/mL) modulated DNA damage and redox status in a concentration-dependent manner at 24-h incubation. The pomace extraction technology, applied for juice preparation, and the preferential selection of cider apple varieties influenced the polyphenolic pattern and increased the biological effectiveness of the extracts. The preventive potential of major juice constituents (1-100 microM, 24 h) strongly differed: rutin, epicatechin and caffeic acid clearly reduced (oxidative) DNA damage (Caco-2), chlorogenic acid efficiently decreased cellular reactive oxygen species level (HT29, Caco-2). The aglyca quercetin and phloretin exhibited the highest preventive/antioxidant capacity in all assays. The stability of the compounds inversely correlated with their preventive effectiveness and might contribute to the observed cell specific sensitivities. In conclusion, apple juice extracts distinctly reduce oxidative cell damage in human colon cell lines, an effect, which in part can be accounted for by their major constituents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It has been suggested that iron increases oxidative stress and that an excess of iron contributes to cardiovascular disease and infections in haemodialysis patients. In the present study, the effects of parenterally administered iron on leucocyte surface molecule expression and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were evaluated. METHODS Ten chronic haemodialysis (HD) patients without iron overload were studied. To each patient, four different regimens were applied: placebo; iron sucrose, either 30 or 100 mg, administered via the outflow dialyser line; and 100 mg of iron sucrose infused via the inflow dialyser line. Blood was sampled at different time points: before, during and after infusion and immediately before the next dialysis session. Levels of CD11b and CD45 expression on granulocytes and of CD11b, CD14 and CD36 on monocytes were determined using flow cytometric analysis. The generation of ROS was quantified using chemiluminescence with and without ex vivo stimulation by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). RESULTS No significant differences among the four different treatment regimes were found, neither in chemilumescence activity nor in the expression of CD11b and CD45 on granulocytes, and of CD11b, CD14 and CD36 on monocytes. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that parenteral infusion of iron sucrose during haemodialysis in patients who have no signs of iron overload has no significant effect on the expression of leucocyte surface molecules and does not increase production of ROS.

Abstract
Oxidative cell damage is involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, cancer, diabetes and other diseases. Uptake of fruit juice with especially high content of antioxidant flavonoids/polyphenols, might reduce oxidative cell damage. Therefore, an intervention study was performed with a red mixed berry juice [trolox equivalent antioxidative capacity (TEAC): 19.1 mmol/L trolox] and a corresponding polyphenol-depleted juice (polyphenols largely removed, TEAC 2.4 mmol/L trolox), serving as control. After a 3-week run-in period, 18 male probands daily consumed 700 mL juice, and 9 consumed control juice, in a 4-week intervention, followed by a 3-week wash-out. Samples were collected weekly to analyze DNA damage (comet assay), lipid peroxidation (plasma malondialdehyde: HPLC/fluorescence; urinary isoprostanes: GC-MS), blood glutathione (photometrically), DNA-binding activity of nuclear factor-kappaB (ELISA) and plasma carotenoid/alpha-tocopherol levels (HPLC-DAD). During intervention with the fruit juice, a decrease of oxidative DNA damage (p<5x10(-4)) and an increase of reduced glutathione (p<5x10(-4)) and of glutathione status (p<0.05) were observed, which returned to the run-in levels in the subsequent wash-out phase. The other biomarkers were not significantly modulated by the juice supplement. Intervention with the control juice did not result in reduction of oxidative damage. In conclusion, the fruit juice clearly reduces oxidative cell damage in healthy probands.

Abstract
Chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients manifest anemia and atherosclerosis with associated oxidative stress. We explored whether intravenous infusion of vitamin C (VC) and/or use of vitamin E (VE)-coated dialysis membrane could palliate HD-evoked oxidative stress. Eighty patients undergoing chronic HD were enrolled and randomly assigned into four groups: HD with intravenous VC (n=20), HD with VE-coated dialyzer (n=20), HD with both (n=20), and HD with neither (n=20). We evaluated oxidative stress in blood and plasma, erythrocyte methemoglobin/ferricyanide reductase (red blood cells (RBC)-MFR) activity, plasma methemoglobin, and pro-inflammatory cytokines in these patients. All patients showed marked increases (14-fold) in blood reactive oxygen species (ROS) after HD. The types of ROS were mostly hydrogen peroxide, and in lesser amounts, O2*- and HOCl. HD resulted in decreased plasma VC, total antioxidant status, and RBC-MFR activity and increased plasma and erythrocyte levels of phosphatidylcholine hydroperoxide (PCOOH) and methemoglobin. Intravenous VC significantly palliated HD-induced oxidative stress, plasma and RBC levels of PCOOH, and plasma methemoglobin levels and preserved RBC-MFR activity. The VE-coated dialyzer effectively prevented RBCs from oxidative stress, although it showed a partial effect on the reduction of total ROS activity in whole blood. In conclusion, intravenous VC plus a VE-coated dialyzer is effective in palliating HD-evoked oxidative stress, as indicated by hemolysis and lipid peroxidation, and by overexpression of proinflammation cytokines in HD patients. Using VE-coated dialyzer per se is, however, effective in reducing lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage to RBCs.

Abstract
Acrylamide (AA) can be formed in certain foods by heating, predominantly from the precursor asparagine. It is a carcinogen in animal experiments, but the relevance of dietary exposure for humans is still under debate. There is substantial evidence that glycidamide (GA), metabolically formed from AA by Cyp 2E1-mediated epoxidation, acts as ultimate mutagenic agent. We compared the mutagenic potential of AA and GA in V79-cells, using the hprt mutagenicity-test with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitroso-guanidine (MNNG) as positive control. Whereas MNNG showed marked mutagenic effectivity already at 0.5 microM, AA was inactive up to a concentration of 10 mM. In contrast, GA showed a concentration dependent induction of mutations at concentrations of 800 microM and higher. Human blood was used as model system to investigate genotoxic potential in lymphocytes by single cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay) and by measuring the induction of micronuclei (MN) with bleomycin (BL) as positive control. AA did not induce significant genotoxicity or mutagenicity up to 6000 microM. With GA, concentration dependent DNA damage was observed in the dose range of 300-3000 microM after 4 h incubation. Significant MN-induction was not observed with AA (up to 5000 microM) and GA (up to 1000 microM), whereas BL (4 microM) induced significantly enhanced MN frequencies. Thus, in our systems GA appears to exert a rather moderate genotoxic activity.
