Abstract
Oral cancer is the seventh most common malignancy worldwide, and lifestyle factors participate in its development. Rodent studies can help identify substances that contribute to its development and provide information on the early stages of carcinogenicity. The National Toxicology Program (NTP) has conducted more than 500 short-term and 2-year toxicology and carcinogenicity studies in rodents, and some of the tested compounds resulted in oral cancer. Our goal was to review the NTP carcinogenic studies to describe those chemicals that have oral carcinogenic outcome in rodents. For this project, we reviewed the results from all NTP carcinogenicity studies and a board-certified veterinary pathologist reviewed the slides from all neoplasms in the oral cavity that were considered treatment related. We have identified 26 chemicals with an adverse effect in the oral cavity. Fourteen chemicals demonstrated clear evidence of carcinogenicity in the oral cavity. We provide information on the carcinogenic findings in rodents together with a detailed description of the morphologic aspects of the oral cancers and speculate that the carcinogenic effects can be induced by different pathological modes of action. The findings reviewed here provide indicators for potential oral carcinogenesis processes in rodent models, which can be further investigated in future mechanistic studies.

Approaches and Methods to Measure Oxidative Stress in Clinical Samples: Research Applications in the Cancer Field. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2019; 2019:1279250.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are common by-products of normal aerobic cellular metabolism and play important physiological roles in intracellular cell signaling and homeostasis. The human body is equipped with antioxidant systems to regulate the levels of these free radicals and maintain proper physiological function. However, a condition known as oxidative stress (OS) occurs, when ROS overwhelm the body's ability to readily detoxify them. Excessive amounts of free radicals generated under OS conditions cause oxidative damage to proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, severely compromising cell health and contributing to disease development, including cancer. Biomarkers of OS can therefore be exploited as important tools in the assessment of disease status in humans. In the present review, we discuss different approaches used for the evaluation of OS in clinical samples. The described methods are limited in their ability to reflect on OS only partially, revealing the need of more integrative approaches examining both pro- and antioxidant reactions with higher sensitivity to physiological/pathological alternations. We also provide an overview of recent findings of OS in patients with different types of cancer. Identification of OS biomarkers in clinical samples of cancer patients and defining their roles in carcinogenesis hold great promise in promoting the development of targeted therapeutic approaches and diagnostic strategies assessing disease status. However, considerable data variability across laboratories makes it difficult to draw general conclusions on the significance of these OS biomarkers. To our knowledge, no adequate comparison has yet been performed between different biomarkers and the methodologies used to measure them, making it difficult to conduct a meta-analysis of findings from different groups. A critical evaluation and adaptation of proposed methodologies available in the literature should therefore be undertaken, to enable the investigators to choose the most suitable procedure for each chosen biomarker.

Abstract
The 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), an oxidized nucleoside of DNA, not only is a widely used biomarker for the measurement of endogenous oxidative DNA damage, but might also be a risk factor for many diseases including cancer. Elevated level of urinary 8-OHdG has been detected in patients with various malignancies. In the present study, the level of urinary 8-OHdG was examined in 116 Chinese children with acute leukemia (94 acute lymphoid leukemia, ALL, 22 acute myeloid leukemia, AML), and its correlation with urinary metal elements was investigated. Our result showed that the level of urinary 8-OHdG in children with acute leukemia before treatment was significantly elevated compared with that in normal controls (11.92 +/- 15.42 vs. 4.03 +/- 4.70 ng/mg creatinine, P < 0.05). In particular, urinary 8-OHdG was higher in children with acute leukemia aged under 3 years (20.86 +/- 21.75 ng/mg creatinine) than in those aged 3-15 years (8.09 +/- 9.65 ng/mg creatinine), whereas no differences were shown in terms of gender, parental smoking and education, household income, place of residence, and use of paracetamol. In addition, urinary 8-OHdG levels were similar among different subtypes of acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL) patients. Furthermore, linear regression analysis revealed a significant correlation between urinary 8-OHdG and urinary Cr, but not Fe or As, in group aged <3 years compared with group aged 3-15 years (P = 0.041), indicating that the metal elements may be involved in increasing urinary 8-OHdG level in younger children with acute leukemia. Our results suggest that children with acute leukemia undergo an increased risk of oxidative DNA damage, which may be correlated with high level of Cr exposure in Chinese children with acute leukemia.

Abstract
Titanium dioxide (TiO2), also known as titanium (IV) oxide or anatase, is the naturally occurring oxide of titanium. It is also one of the most commercially used form. To date, no parameter has been set for the average ambient air concentration of TiO2 nanoparticles (NP) by any regulatory agency. Previously conducted studies had established these nanoparticles to be mainly non-cyto- and -genotoxic, although they had been found to generate free radicals both acellularly (specially through photocatalytic activity) and intracellularly. The present study determines the role of TiO2-NP (anatase, slashed circle < 100 nm) using several parameters such as cyto- and genotoxicity, DNA-adduct formation and generation of free radicals following its uptake by human lung cells in vitro. For comparison, iron containing nanoparticles (hematite, Fe2O3, slashed circle < 100 nm) were used. The results of this study showed that both types of NP were located in the cytosol near the nucleus. No particles were found inside the nucleus, in mitochondria or ribosomes. Human lung fibroblasts (IMR-90) were more sensitive regarding cyto- and genotoxic effects caused by the NP than human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B). In contrast to hematite NP, TiO2-NP did not induce DNA-breakage measured by the Comet-assay in both cell types. Generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was measured acellularly (without any photocatalytic activity) as well as intracellularly for both types of particles, however, the iron-containing NP needed special reducing conditions before pronounced radical generation. A high level of DNA adduct formation (8-OHdG) was observed in IMR-90 cells exposed to TiO2-NP, but not in cells exposed to hematite NP. Our study demonstrates different modes of action for TiO2- and Fe2O3-NP. Whereas TiO2-NP were able to generate elevated amounts of free radicals, which induced indirect genotoxicity mainly by DNA-adduct formation, Fe2O3-NP were clastogenic (induction of DNA-breakage) and required reducing conditions for radical formation.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical that is involved in the inflammatory process and carcinogenesis. There are four nitric oxide synthase enzymes involved in NO production: induced nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), endothelial NO synthase (eNOS), neural NO synthase (nNOS), and mitochondrial NOS. iNOS is an inducible and key enzyme in the inflamed tissue. Recent literatures indicate that NO as well as iNOS and eNOS can modulate cancer-related events including nitro-oxidative stress, apoptosis, cell cycle, angio-genesis, invasion, and metastasis. This chapter focuses on linking NO/iNOS/eNOS to inflammation and carcinogenesis from experimental evidence to potential targets on cancer prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Oxygen-derived free radicals play important roles in pathophysiological processes in critically ill patients, but the data characterizing relationships between radicals and neuroendocrine system response are sparse. To search the cue to reduce the oxidative cellular damage from the point of view of neuroendocrine system response, we studied the indicators of neuroendocrine and inflammatory responses excreted in urine in 14 burn patients (42.3 +/- 31.4 years old, and 32.3 +/- 27.6% burn of total body surface area [%TBSA]) during the first seven days post burn. The daily mean amounts of urinary excretion of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxy-guanosine (8-OHdG), a marker of oxidative cellular damage, were above the upper limit of the standard value during the studied period. The total amount of urinary excretion of 8-OHdG in the first day post burn correlated with burn severity indices: %TBSA (r = 0.63, p = 0.021) and burn index (r = 0.70, p = 0.008). The daily urinary excretion of 8-OHdG correlated with the daily urinary excretion of norepinephrine and nitrite plus nitrate (NOx) during the studied period except day 2 post burn, and correlated with the daily urinary excretion of 17-hydroxycorticosteriod (17-OHCS) in days 2, 3, and 7 post burn. These data suggest that oxidative cellular damage correlates with burn severity and neuroendocrine system response modulates inflammation and oxidative cellular damage. Modulation of neuroendocrine system response and inflammation in the treatment in the early phase of burn may be useful to reduce the oxidative cellular damage and to prevent multiple organ failures in patients with extensive burn.

Abstract
The specific light-induced, non-enzymatic photolysis of mOGG1 by porphyrin-conjugated or rose bengal-conjugated streptavidin and porphyrin-conjugated or rose bengal-conjugated first specific or secondary anti-IgG antibodies is reported. The porphyrin chlorin e6 and rose bengal were conjugated to either streptavidin, rabbit anti-mOGG1 primary specific antibody fractions or goat anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibody fractions. Under our experimental conditions, visible light of wavelengths greater than 600 nm induced the non-enzymatic degradation of mOGG1 when this DNA repair enzyme either directly formed a complex with chlorin e6-conjugated anti-mOGG1 primary specific antibodies or indirectly formed complexes with either streptavidin-chlorin e6 conjugates and biotinylated first specific anti-mOGG1 antibodies or first specific anti-mOGG1 antibodies and chlorin e6-conjugated anti-rabbit IgG secondary antibodies. Similar results were obtained when rose bengal was used as photosensitizer instead of chlorin e6. The rate of the photochemical reaction of mOGG1 site-directed by all three chlorin e6 antibody complexes was not affected by the presence of the singlet oxygen scavenger sodium azide. Site-directed photoactivatable probes having the capacity to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) while destroying the DNA repair system in malignant cells and tumors may represent a powerful strategy to boost selectivity, penetration and efficacy of current photodynamic (PDT) therapy methodologies.

Abstract
8-Hydroxyguanine (8-OH-G) was discovered in 1983 in our laboratory at the National Cancer Center Research Institute, Tokyo. Since it could be formed in DNA not only in vitro but also in vivo by oxygen radical forming agents, we immediately hypothesized the importance of this discovery in connection with its biological consequence. Further intensive efforts by us from 1983 to 1990 confirmed that 8-OH-G is a highly significant oxidated DNA lesion involved in mutation and/or carcinogenesis in mammals, including humans. With the subsequent entry of many investigators to this research field the number of publications on 8-OH-G increased exponentially, reaching more than several thousands by the end of 2005. In this article, a summary is given of the important works carried out in the early days, and further notable contributions by many investigators are reviewed, focusing on 8-OH-G in the mammalian system. A special emphasis is given to research on knockout mice that are deficient in genes involved in the repair systems of the 8-OH-G lesion. Lastly, our own recent work is summarized involving a one-year carcinogenesis study of Ogg1 (the gene for 8-OH-G specific glycosylase/AP lyase) knockout mice that have been exposed to oxidative stress.

Abstract
8-Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) is a major DNA repair enzyme in mammalian cells. OGG1 participates in the repair of 8-oxoG, the most abundant known DNA lesion induced by endogenous reactive oxygen species in aerobic organisms. In this study, antibodies directed against purified recombinant human OGG1 (hOGG1) or murine (mOGG1) protein were chemically conjugated to either the photosensitizer Rose Bengal or the fluorescent dye Texas red. These dye-protein conjugates, in combination with binding assays, were used to identify associations between mOGG1 and the cytoskeleton of NIH3T3 fibroblasts. Results from these binding studies showed that mOGG1 associates with the cytoskeleton by specifically binding to the centriole and microtubules radiating from the centrosome at interphase and the spindle assembly at mitosis. Similar results were obtained with hOGG1. Together results reported in this study suggest that OGG1 is a microtubule-associated protein itself or that OGG1 utilizes yet to be identified motor proteins to ride on microtubules as tracks facilitating the movement and redistribution of cytoplasmic OGG1 pools during interphase and mitosis and in response to oxidative DNA damage.

Abstract
The generation of reactive oxygen species may be both beneficial to cells, performing a function in inter- and intracellular signalling, and detrimental, modifying cellular biomolecules, accumulation of which has been associated with numerous diseases. Of the molecules subject to oxidative modification, DNA has received the greatest attention, with biomarkers of exposure and effect closest to validation. Despite nearly a quarter of a century of study, and a large number of base- and sugar-derived DNA lesions having been identified, the majority of studies have focussed upon the guanine modification, 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG). For the most part, the biological significance of other lesions has not, as yet, been investigated. In contrast, the description and characterisation of enzyme systems responsible for repairing oxidative DNA base damage is growing rapidly, being the subject of intense study. However, there remain notable gaps in our knowledge of which repair proteins remove which lesions, plus, as more lesions identified, new processes/substrates need to be determined. There are many reports describing elevated levels of oxidatively modified DNA lesions, in various biological matrices, in a plethora of diseases; however, for the majority of these the association could merely be coincidental, and more detailed studies are required. Nevertheless, even based simply upon reports of studies investigating the potential role of 8-OH-dG in disease, the weight of evidence strongly suggests a link between such damage and the pathogenesis of disease. However, exact roles remain to be elucidated.

Abstract
OGG1 is a major DNA glycosylase in mammalian cells, participating in the repair of 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoguanine, 8-oxoG), the most abundant known DNA lesion induced by endogenous reactive oxygen species in aerobic organisms. 8-oxoG is therefore often used as a marker for oxidative DNA damage. In this study, polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies were raised against the purified wild-type recombinant murine 8-oxoG DNA glycosylase (mOGG1) protein and their specificity against the native enzyme and the SDS-denatured mOGG1 polypeptide were characterized. Specific antibodies directed against the purified wild-type recombinant mOGG1 were used to localize in situ this DNA repair enzyme in established cell lines (HeLa cells, NIH3T3 fibroblasts) as well as in primary culture mouse embryo fibroblasts growing under either normal or oxidative stress conditions. Results from these studies showed that mOGG1 is localized to the nucleus and the cytoplasm of mammalian cells in culture. However, mOGG1 levels increase and primarily redistribute to the nucleus and its peripheral cytoplasm in cells exposed to oxidative stress conditions. Immunofluorescent localization results reported in this study suggest that susceptibility to oxidative DNA damage varies among mammalian tissue culture cells and that mOGG1 appears to redistribute once mOGG1 cell copy number increases in response to oxidative DNA damage.

Abstract
8-Oxo-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG) is a pervasive oxidative DNA lesion formed by endogenous oxidative stress and enhanced by drugs and environmental chemicals. This lesion results in transcriptional errors and mutations and is linked to neurodegeneration, teratogenesis, cancer, and other pathologies. We demonstrate that the neonatal central nervous system of transgenic mice carrying the tetracycline-regulable DNA repair gene formamidopyrimidine DNA glycosylase (fpg) has a 50% reduction in 8-oxo-dG levels. This enhanced DNA repair is suppressed by treatment with doxycycline. For the first time, this murine model permits the level of a specific DNA oxidation product to be regulated in a temporally and spatially specific manner, allowing its role as a primary or secondary factor in neurodegenerative disease to be determined in vivo.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to investigate the possible protective effect of a new viscosising agent, TS-polysaccharide, on corneal-derived cells (SIRC) exposed to ultraviolet-B rays. To verify this, SIRC cells were first exposed, in the absence or in the presence of TS-polysaccharide (1% w/v), for 9 s at the UV-B source and then post-incubated for 45 min at 37 degrees C. After this period the hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) accumulated in the medium and the concentration of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxy-guanosine (8-OHdG) in cell DNA was measured. In addition, the amount of (3)H-methyl-thymidine incorporated in cellular DNA was evaluated after 18 h from irradiation. Our results show that cells exposed to UV-B rays accumulate H(2)O(2), and have higher levels of 8OHdG and a lower amount of (3)H-methyl-thymidine incorporated in DNA than control cells. In the presence of TS-polysaccharide, the H(2)O(2) and 8-OHdG accumulation, and the (3)H-methyl-thymidine incorporation were significantly reduced with respect to the values measured in cells exposed in the absence of the polysaccharide. We propose a protective role of the polysaccharide in reducing UV-B derived DNA damage to eye cells. This finding could be of some clinical importance when the polysaccharide is used as a delivery system for ophthalmic preparations.

Abstract
Aged (27 months of age) and young (6 months of age) Fischer 344/DuCrj rats were exposed to gamma-ray irradiation, and their livers were compared for levels of oxidative DNA modifications and repair enzyme activities. The amounts of 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) in the nuclear DNA of the livers of both young and aged rats increased immediately after irradiation, by 1.7-fold in the livers of young rats and 2.7-fold in the livers of the aged rats. Also, the rate of 8-oxodG decay was slower in the livers of the aged rats than in young rat liver, and remained above the baseline level even 1 week after irradiation. The activities of 8-oxodG-releasing enzymes peaked 2 and 6 h after irradiation in the livers of young and aged rats, respectively. The repair activity in the livers of the young rats was increased by sevenfold 2 h after irradiation, while the livers of the aged rats showed a twofold increase 6 h after irradiation. These results suggest that the ability to repair damaged DNA is lower in aged rats, and that the accumulation of oxidative DNA damage that takes place during aging may be related to this decline in repair activity.

Abstract
8-Hydroxyguanine (7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine, abbreviated as 8-OH-G or 8-oxoG) is the site of a frequent mutagenic DNA lesion produced by oxidative damage. MutM of E. coli and OGG1 of Saccharomyces cervisiae are known to possess 8-OH-G glycosylase and apurinic (AP) site lyase activity. cDNA clones of four isoforms (types 1a, 1b, 1c, and 2) of human OGG1 homologs (hMMH) were isolated. In order to examine whether expression of hMMH (hOGG1) protein actually occurs in human cells, we prepared type 1a specific antibody, and by using this antibody, we showed that type 1a protein isolated from HeLaS3 has 8-OH-G glycosylase/lyase activity. Furthermore, we showed that type 1a protein is a major enzyme for repair of the 8-OH-G lesion in human cells. In our second study, we generated a mouse line carrying an inactivated mutant Mmh allele by targeted gene disruption. Liver extracts of Mmh homozygous mutant mice were found to have loss of the nicking activity for the 8-OH-G site. In addition, the amount of endogenous 8-OH-G in liver DNA of the homozygous mice increased linearly with age, reaching 7-fold increase in 14 week old mice, over that of wild-type or heterozygous mice. Furthermore, when homozygous mice were fed the oxygen radical-forming agent KBrO3, to provide oxidative stress, the level of 8-OH-G in kidney DNA was tremendously increased: more than 200-fold as that of control mice without oxidative stress after 12 weeks of age. These results indicate that Ogg1/Mmh plays an essential role in the repair of the 8-OH-G residue in DNA produced by oxidative stress.

Abstract
To obtain information on the effects of nongenotoxic carcinogens at low doses for human cancer risk assessment, the carcinogenic potential of the organochlorine insecticide, 1,1-bis(p-chlorophenyl)-2,2,2-trichloroethane (DDT), in the liver was assessed in F344 rats. In experiment 1, 240 male animals, 21 days old, were administered 0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 5.0, 20, 100 and 500 ppm DDT in the diet for 16 weeks. Experiment 2 was conducted to elucidate the carcinogenic potential of DDT at lower levels using 180 rats given doses of 0, 0.005, 0.01, 0.1, 0.2 and 0.5 ppm. The livers of all animals were immunohistochemically examined for expression of glutathione S-transferase placental form (GST-P), putative preneoplastic lesions. Quantitative values for GST-P-positive foci in the liver were increased dose-dependently in rats given 20 ppm DDT and above with statistical significance as compared with the concurrent control value. In contrast, doses of 0.005 and 0.01 ppm were associated with a tendency for decrease below the control value, although not significantly. Western blotting analysis show that cytochrome P-450 3A2 (CYP3A2) protein expression tended to decrease at 0.005 and 0.01 ppm, a good correlation being observed with the change in the number of GST-P-positive foci. These findings suggest that a DDT hepatocarcinogenicity may show nonlinear response, that is, hormetic response at low doses. Furthermore, since CYP3A2 protein expression appears to be important for the effects of phenobarbital and the alpha-isomer of benzene hexachloride, mRNAs for IL-1 receptor type 1 (IL-1R1) and TNF-alpha receptor type 1 (TNFR1) whose ligands have roles not only in downregulating CYP3A2 expression but also in inducing antiproliferative effect or apoptosis in hepatocyte were examined. Increase was observed at low doses of DDT. Oxidative stress in liver DNA, assessed in terms of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine as a marker, was also decreased. These findings suggest that the possible hormetic effect that was observed in our detailed low-dose study of DDT carcinogenesis, although not statistically significant, may be linked to levels of oxidative stress and proinflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
Retention of fetal membranes (RFM) is believed to be associated with conditions of oxidative stress. In this study, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) was used for the determination of spontaneous oxidative DNA lesions in maternal and fetal parts of bovine retained and nonretained placentas. Placental specimens were collected directly after spontaneous delivery or during cesarean section from cows divided into 6 groups: (A) cesarean section before term without RFM, (B) with RFM, (C) cesarean section at term without RFM, (D) with RFM, (E) spontaneous delivery at term without RFM and (F) with RFM. Isolated DNA was hydrolyzed and analyzed by HPLC; native nucleosides were monitored at 254 nm and 8-OH-dG by electrochemical detection. No significant differences in 8-OH-dG levels between retained and nonretained placental tissues were found in all samples from preterm groups (mean concentrations between 13 and 42 micromol/mol deoxyguanosine (dG)). In the term cesarean section group with RFM a significant increase in 8-OH-dG concentration in DNA from maternal (8-fold) and fetal (18-fold) membranes were detected when compared to the respective nonretained tissues. Also, in the term spontaneous delivery groups maternal nonretained placental tissues showed increased levels of 8-OH-dG in comparison to the respective tissues of the retained placenta group. In placental tissues oxidative DNA lesions appear to be controlled by responsive mechanisms which, possibly following exhaustion, give rise to increased 8-OH-dG levels.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation of gastrointestinal tissues is a well-recognized risk factor for the development of epithelial cell-derived malignancies. Although the inflammatory mediators linking chronic inflammation to carcinogenesis are numerous, current information suggests that nitric oxide (NO) contributes to carcinogenesis during chronic inflammation. Inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), expressed by both macrophages and epithelial cells during inflammation, generates the bioreactive molecule NO. In addition to causing DNA lesions, NO can directly interact with proteins by nitrosylation and nitosation reactions. The consequences of protein damage by NO appear to be procarcinogenic. For example, NO inhibits DNA repair enzymes such as human 8-oxodeoxyguanosine DNA glycosylase 1 and blocks apoptosis via nitrosylation of caspases. These cellular events permit DNA damage to accumulate, which is required for the numerous mutations necessary for development of invasive cancer. NO also promotes cancer progression by functioning as an angiogenesis factor. Strategies to inhibit NO generation during chronic inflammation or to scavenge reactive nitrogen species may prove useful in decreasing the risk of cancer development in chronic inflammatory gastrointestinal diseases.

Abstract
The base excision repair system for 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua) is believed to play a role in the prevention of mutations, such as GC-to-TA transversion, which leads to cancer development. However, the exact repair mechanism is still unclear. In this study, we examine whether the repair activity level for 8-hydroxyguanine, one of the major forms of oxidative DNA damage, depends on the sequence of the substrate DNA. We prepared six different oligonucleotides containing 8-hydroxyguanine as substrates and reacted them with crude extracts from the livers and kidneys of 8-week-old Sprague-Dawley rats. As a result, up to a 10-fold difference in the repair activity levels was observed, depending on the substrates used. Based on this observation, we suggest that the repair systems may act with sequence specificity on the damaged DNA.

Abstract
The age dependent increase of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) reported in DNA of organs of old rats appears to vary with the strain, age and sex of the animals used for the investigation. Here we report on 8-OH-dG concentrations in the cellular DNA of 12 tissues of male Sprague-Dawley rats aged 5 or 30 months and kept under standard conditions throughout their lives until being killed. DNA from frozen organs was isolated using a Qiagen DNA purification kit. Following digestion (nuclease P1, alkaline nuclease) hydrolysed DNA was applied onto a HPLC column; native nucleosides were monitored at 254 nm and 8-OH-dG by electrochemical detection. 8-OH-dG levels in organs of young rats ranged between 10 and 90 micromol/mol deoxyguanosine (dG). Highest levels (micromol 8-OH-dG /mol dG) were detected in the oesophagus (90), muscle (61), brain (65), liver (59), spleen (57), and testicles (63). 8-OH-dG in DNA from kidney, lung, heart, small and large intestine ranged between 28 and 38 micromol/mol dG. Lowest amounts were found in the glandular stomach (10). DNA of old rats generally contained higher 8-OH-dG levels with significant increases in liver (186%) and kidney (372%); other organs showed no significant decreases (spleen, brain, testicles) or increases up to 69% (heart). These findings are discussed in the context with previously published data on 8-OH-dG levels in organs from young and old rats.

Abstract
8-Oxoguanine is one of the major premutagenic oxidative base legions in vivo and is suspected to play a crucial role in various pathophysiological processes, such as cancer and aging. Mammalian 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) is thought to play a major role in the removal of 8-oxoguanine adducts in vivo. We have identified several inbred mouse strains with a spontaneous mutation, OGG1-R336H or double mutations, OGG1-R304W/R336H. R304W mutation caused a complete loss of OGG1 activity, while the R336H mutation led to disruption of nuclear localization of the enzyme although the activity remained normal. Among the double mutants was SAMP1, which exhibits accelerated senescence and short lifespan. We assessed the possible implication of the mutant OGG1 and 8-oxoguanine in aging utilizing SAMP1 mice. SAMP1 retained 1.5- to 1.9-fold increase in 8-oxoguanine level of hepatic nuclear DNA as compared with normal mice, until at least 12 months of age. A genetic association study, however, indicated that the mutant Ogg1 gene per se is not responsible for the accelerated senescence and short lifespan of SAMP1. Mutant OGG1 may be associated with pathologic conditions in other mouse strains.

Abstract
We examined 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua) formation and 8-OH-Gua repair enzyme activity in pulmonary type-II-like epithelial cells to determine whether oxidative stress induced by asbestos plays a role in its carcinogenic mechanism. A549 cells were incubated with crocidolite asbestos at concentrations of 0, 10, 50 and 100 microg/ml over 27 h. We then evaluated 8-OH-Gua formation, 8-OH-Gua repair enzyme activity and gene expression of 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase 1 (hOGG1) and human MUtT homologue (hMTH1). This was done using a high-performance liquid chromatography system equipped with an electrochemical detector, endonuclease nicking assay and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, respectively. Crocidolite induced the formation of 8-OH-Gua in DNA at concentrations of 50 and 100 microg/ml. 8-OH-Gua levels increased at 9 h and had declined to near baseline at 27 h, whereas 8-OH-Gua repair enzyme activity peaked at 18 h post-crocidolite exposure. hOGG1 and hMTH1 mRNA levels were also increased by crocidolite exposure. These data suggest that crocidolite asbestos is associated with epithelial cell injury in the process of carcinogenesis through oxidative stress.

Abstract
We tested the cytotoxic action of 8-hydroxyguanine (8ohG) by observing the viability of several leukemic cell lines (KG-1, U937, Jurkat and K 562) in the presence of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8ohdG), a nucleoside of 8ohG. It was found that 8ohdG showed cytotoxic action only to KG-1 and that only KG-1 showed a homozygous arginine 209 to glutamine mutation in the hOGG1 gene with an almost negligible hOGG1 enzyme activity. Possibly, the selective cytotoxicity in 8ohdG to KG-1 may be due to its low capacity to cope with an increase in the 8ohG level in DNA resulting from the incorporation of 8ohdG present in the culture media. The mutational impairment of hOGG1 in KG-1 is the first report in leukemic cell lines. Using KG-1 with impaired hOGG1, we demonstrated cytotoxicity of 8ohdG probably due to its incorporation into cellular DNA. This new property of KG-1 may allow it to serve as an useful tool for studies of OGG1, oxidative DNA damage and the cytotoxic action of 8ohG. Oncogene (2000) 19, 4476 - 4479.

Abstract
A type of oxidative DNA damage, 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua) formation, and the activity for its subsequent repair, 8-OH-Gua endonuclease activity, were examined in an ischemia-reperfusion model of isolated rat hearts. The level of 8-OH-Gua in myocardial DNA was measured by a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) equipped with an electrochemical detector, and the 8-OH-Gua endonuclease activity was analysed by the endonuclease nicking assay using a synthetic double-stranded oligonucleotide containing an 8-OH-Gua residue as a substrate. The Langendorff-perfused rat hearts were subjected to 30 or 60 min of global ischemia, followed by reperfusion with an oxygenated or a nitrogenated Krebs-Henseleit solution. The 8-OH-Gua content in the DNA of the ischemic hearts reperfused with an oxygenated solution was three to four times higher than that of the control hearts. The levels of 8-OH-Gua did not increase either in the ischemic hearts reperfused with a nitrogenated solution or in the ischemic-reperfused hearts treated with SOD, mannitol or allopurinol. When the myocardial extract was incubated with the 8-OH-Gua-containing oligonucleotide substrate, a specific cleavage at the site of an 8-OH-Gua residue was detected. The endonuclease activity responsible for this cleavage increased two-fold in the ischemic-reperfused hearts, compared to the control. This study demonstrates that the formation of 8-OH-Gua in DNA as well as the level of its repair process, 8-OH-Gua endonuclease activity, increase in the ischemic-reperfused rat hearts in response to oxidative stress due to higher levels of oxygen free radicals.

Abstract
The 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), presently the most popular marker for oxidative DNA damage, level has been reported to be elevated in patients with various malignancies. In the present study, urinary 8-OHdG was examined in 44 patients with hematological disorders (13 malignant lymphoma, 11 adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL), 10 acute leukemia, and 10 myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)) by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The pre-therapy level of urinary 8-OHdG in ATL patients was significantly elevated compared with normal controls (25.3+/-12.9 vs. 11.9+/-7.3 ng/mg, P<0.05). Although patients with lymphoma, acute leukemia and MDS also showed higher urinary 8-OHdG levels than normal controls, the differences were not significant. However, two patients with refractory anemia with excess blasts in transformation (RAEB-t) having extreme monocytosis and neutrophilia showed exceptionally high urinary 8-OHdG levels (161.0 and 218.9 ng/mg). Urinary 8-OHdG excretion increased transiently with chemotherapy, and this fluctuation was significant irrespective of the disorder (P<0.05). Interestingly, lymphoma patients with high LDH, advanced stage, poor performance status or International Prognostic Index (IPI) of high/high-intermediate risk had significantly elevated urinary 8-OHdG levels (P<0.05-<0.001). These latter results suggest that urinary 8-OHdG may be a reliable prognostic marker in lymphoma patients and should encourage large scale and long term follow up studies.

Abstract
The major mutagenic base lesion in DNA caused by exposure to reactive oxygen species is 8-hydroxyguanine or 7, 8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-OH-G). Products of the human MMH/OGG1 gene are known to catalyze in vitro the reactions repairing this DNA lesion. To analyze the function of Mmh in vivo, we generated a mouse line carrying a mutant Mmh allele by targeted gene disruption. Mmh homozygous mutant mice were found to have a physically normal appearance, but to have lost nicking activity in liver extracts for substrate DNA containing 8-OH-G, exhibiting a 3-fold increased accumulation of this adduct at 9 weeks of age compared with wild-type or heterozygous mice. Further elevation to 7-fold was observed in 14-week-old animals. Substantial increase of spontaneous mutation frequencies was clearly identified in Mmh mutant mice bearing transgenic gpt genes. These results indicate that exposure of DNA to endogenous oxidative species continuously produces the mutagenic adduct 8-OH-G in mice, and Mmh plays an essential role in repair of this DNA damage.

Abstract
We compared oxidative DNA damage in strictly anaerobic Prevotella melaninogenica, aerotolerant anaerobic Bacteroides fragilis, and facultative anaerobic Salmonella typhimurium after exposure to O2 or H2O2. Using HPLC with electrochemical detection, we measured 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8OHdG) as a damage marker. O2 induced 8OHdG in P. melaninogenica but not in B. fragilis, which shows catalase activity, or in S. typhimurium. In P. melaninogenica, with catalase, O2 induced less 8OHdG; superoxide dismutase had no effect; with glucose and glucose oxidase, O2 induced more 8OHdG. H2O2 also markedly increased 8OHdG. O2 was suggested to induce 8OHdG through H2O2. O2 or H2O2 decreased survival only in P. melaninogenica. Highly sensitive to oxidative stress, P. melaninogenica could prove useful for investigating oxidative DNA damage.

Abstract
We investigated the effect of physical exercise on the level of 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua), a form of oxidative DNA damage, and its repair activity in human peripheral leukocytes. Whole blood samples were collected by venipuncture from 21 healthy male volunteers (10 trained athletes and 13 untrained men), aged 19-50 years, both before and after physical exercise. Trained athletes showed a lower level of 8-OH-Gua (2.4+/-0.5/10(6) Gua, p = 0.0032) before exercise when compared to that of untrained men (6.2+/-3.5). The mean levels of 8-OH-Gua of untrained subjects decreased significantly (p = 0.0057) from 6.2+/-3.5/10(6) Gua (mean+/-SD/10(6) Gua) to 3.3+/-1.4/10(6) Gua after physical exercise. On the other hand, the mean levels of repair activity of untrained subjects significantly increased after exercise (p = 0.0093) from 0.037+/-0.024 (mean DNA cleavage ratio+/-SD) to 0.056+/-0.036. In the trained athletes 8-OH-Gua level and its repair activity were not changed before and after the exercise. We also observed inter-individual differences in 8-OH-Gua levels and its repair activities. These results suggest that physical exercise causes both rapid and long-range reduction of oxidative DNA damage in human leukocytes, with individually different efficiencies.

Abstract
Oxygen radicals are known to play a role in causing cellular DNA damage, which is involved in carcinogenesis. 8-Hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua) is a major form of oxidative DNA damage and is known as a useful marker of DNA oxidation. Recently, we found another type of oxidative DNA damage, 2-hydroxyadenine (2-OH-Ade), which has a mutation frequency comparable to that of 8-OH-Gua. We compared the repair activities for two types of oxidative DNA damage, 8-OH-Gua and 2-OH-Ade, in 7-week-old male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat organs. The repair activities were measured by an endonuclease nicking assay using 22 mer [32P]-end-labeled double-stranded DNA substrates, which contained either 8-OH-Gua (opposite C) or 2-OH-Ade (opposite T or C). In all of the SD rat organs we studied, the nicking activity for 2-OH-Ade was not detected, while that for 8-OH-Gua was clearly detected with the same conditions. Moreover, the 2-OH-Ade nicking activity was not induced in Wistar rat kidney extracts prepared after ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA) treatment, which is known to increase 8-OH-Gua repair activity. These results suggest that 2-OH-Ade might not be repaired by the glycosylase type mechanism in mammalian cells.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species are formed constantly in living organisms, as products of the normal metabolism, or as a result of many different environmental influences. Here we review the knowledge of formation of DNA damage, the mutations caused by reactive oxygen species and the role of the excision repair processes, that protect the organism from oxidative DNA damage. In particular, we have focused on recent studies that demonstrate the important role of nucleotide excision repair. We propose two major roles of nucleotide excision repair as 1) a backup when base excision repair of small oxidative lesions becomes saturated, and as 2) a primary repair pathway for DNA damage produced by lipid peroxidation products.

Abstract
We found previously that 8-hydroxyguanine (oh8Gua) endonuclease in E. coli is induced in response to oxidative stress in a fashion similar to the oxidative response of the Mn-superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). In this study, attempts were made to identify the genes involved in the co-regulation of E. coli endonuclease and MnSOD (sodA). oh8Gua nuclease is induced by molecular oxygen and a superoxide radical generator (paraquat) but not by H2O2, suggesting that the regulation of this endonuclease is dependent on SoxRS but independent of OxyR. This enzyme was induced by paraquat in all of the soxRS mutant strains used (soxR-, soxS- and soxRc), whereas glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (a member of the soxRS regulon) showed the expected responses; therefore, this possibility was excluded. The presence of metal chelators in the growth medium caused the induction of this enzyme, and this induction was suppressed by the addition of Fe++. Consistent with this finding, this enzyme was expressed under anaerobiosis in all of the mutant strains of fnr in particular, as well as fur, arcA, and combinations thereof. These findings suggest that the oxidative regulation of oh8Gua endonuclease is under control of fnr, fur, and arcA, where fnr plays a predominant role. The multiple involvement of regulatory genes as well as co-regulation with antioxidant enzyme will enhance the efficiency of cellular growth and survival in the aerobic environment.

Abstract
The expression of the 8-oxo-7,8-dihydrodeoxyguanosine triphosphatase (8-oxo-dGTPase) gene in human breast tumors was evaluated at the level of the single cell to better understand how breast tumor cells regulate expression in response to oxidative stress. Compared to normal breast ductal cells, the level of 8-oxo-dGTPase expression in the breast tumor cells increased from non-detectable levels in normal breast to expression in 30-85% of the tumor cells in individual tumors. There was no significant association between 8-oxo-dGTPase expression and tumor grade and metastatic malignancy. The upregulation of 8-oxo-dGTPase was not directly linked to the expression of cyclins D1 and D3, estrogen receptor, p53, Ki-67 and c-erbB-2, which are genes involved in cell cycle regulation and tumor growth. The elevated expression of 8-oxo-dGTPase in human breast ductal carcinoma cells appears to be a general characteristic of breast tumors and may provide the tumor cell with a cellular defense mechanism to prevent the incorporation of 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine during DNA replication.

Abstract
Urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) has been reported to serve as a sensitive biomarker of oxidative DNA damage and also of oxidative stress. We have investigated oxidative DNA damage in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) by urinary 8-OHdG assessments. We determined the total urinary excretion of 8-OHdG from 24 h urine samples of 81 NIDDM patients 9 years after the initial diagnosis and of 100 non-diabetic control subjects matched for age and gender. The total 24 h urinary excretion of 8-OHdG was markedly higher in NIDDM patients than in control subjects (68.2 +/- 39.4 microg vs. 49.6 +/- 37.7 microg, P = 0.001). High glycosylated hemoglobin was associated with a high level of urinary 8-OHdG. The increased excretion of urinary 8-OHdG is seen as indicating an increased systemic level of oxidative DNA damage in NIDDM patients.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species have been shown to generate mutagenic lesions in DNA. One of the most abundant lesions in both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA is 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG). We report here the partial purification and characterization of a mitochondrial oxidative damage endonuclease (mtODE) from rat liver that recognizes and incises at 8-oxoG and abasic sites in duplex DNA. Rat liver mitochondria were purified by differential and Percoll gradient centrifugation, and mtODE was extracted from Triton X-100-solubilized mitochondria. Incision activity was measured using a radiolabeled double-stranded DNA oligonucleotide containing a unique 8-oxoG, and reaction products were separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Gel filtration chromatography predicts mtODE's molecular mass to be between 25 and 30 kDa. mtODE has a monovalent cation optimum between 50 and 100 mM KCl and a pH optimum between 7.5 and 8. mtODE does not require any co-factors and is active in the presence of 5 mM EDTA. It is specific for 8-oxoG and preferentially incises at 8-oxoG:C base pairs. mtODE is a putative 8-oxoG glycosylase/lyase enzyme, because it can be covalently linked to the 8-oxoG oligonucleotide by sodium borohydride reduction. Comparison of mtODE's activity with other known 8-oxoG glycosylases/lyases and mitochondrial enzymes reveals that this may be a novel protein.

Abstract
Oxidative DNA damage is generated by reactive oxygen species. The mutagenic base, 8-oxoguanine, formed by this process, is removed from oxidatively damaged DNA by base excision repair. Genes coding for DNA repair enzymes that recognize 8-oxoguanine have been reported in bacteria and yeast. We have identified and characterized mouse and human cDNAs encoding homologs of the 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (ogg1) gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Escherichia coli doubly mutant for mutM and mutY have a mutator phenotype and are deficient in 8-oxoguanine repair. The recombinant mouse gene (mOgg1) suppresses the mutator phenotype of mutY/mutM E. coli. Extracts prepared from mutY/mutM E. coli expressing mOgg1 contain an activity that excises 8-oxoguanine from DNA and a beta-lyase activity that nicks DNA 3' to the lesion. The mouse ogg1 gene product acts efficiently on DNA duplexes in which 7, 8-dihydroxy-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) is paired with dC, acts weakly on duplexes in which 8-oxodG is paired with dT or dG, and is inactive against duplexes in which 8-oxodG is paired with dA. Mouse and human ogg1 genes contain a helix-hairpin-helix structural motif with conserved residues characteristic of a recently defined family of DNA glycosylases. Ogg1 mRNA is expressed in several mouse tissues; highest levels were detected in testes. Isolation of the mouse ogg1 gene makes it possible to modulate its expression in mice and to explore the involvement of oxidative DNA damage and associated repair processes in aging and cancer.

Abstract
A wide range of cytotoxic and mutagenic DNA bases are removed by different DNA glycosylases, which initiate the base excision repair pathway. DNA glycosylases cleave the N-glycosylic bond between the target base and deoxyribose, thus releasing a free base and leaving an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site. In addition, several DNA glycosylases are bifunctional, since they also display a lyase activity that cleaves the phosphodiester backbone 3' to the AP site generated by the glycosylase activity. Structural data and sequence comparisons have identified common features among many of the DNA glycosylases. Their active sites have a structure that can only bind extrahelical target bases, as observed in the crystal structure of human uracil-DNA glycosylase in a complex with double-stranded DNA. Nucleotide flipping is apparently actively facilitated by the enzyme. With bacteriophage T4 endonuclease V, a pyrimidine-dimer glycosylase, the enzyme gains access to the target base by flipping out an adenine opposite to the dimer. A conserved helix-hairpin-helix motif and an invariant Asp residue are found in the active sites of more than 20 monofunctional and bifunctional DNA glycosylases. In bifunctional DNA glycosylases, the conserved Asp is thought to deprotonate a conserved Lys, forming an amine nucleophile. The nucleophile forms a covalent intermediate (Schiff base) with the deoxyribose anomeric carbon and expels the base. Deoxyribose subsequently undergoes several transformations, resulting in strand cleavage and regeneration of the free enzyme. The catalytic mechanism of monofunctional glycosylases does not involve covalent intermediates. Instead the conserved Asp residue may activate a water molecule which acts as the attacking nucleophile.

Abstract
Ratios of urinary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine to urinary creatinine (8-OHdG/creatinine) have been considered as a good biological indicator of DNA oxidation. Urinary 8-OHdG/creatinine levels of lung cancer patients were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using a monoclonal antibody N45.1 during radiotherapy and chemotherapy. An increase in urinary 8-OHdG/creatinine was found in non-small-cell carcinoma (non-SCC) patients during the course of radiotherapy. SCC patients showed higher levels of urinary 8-OHdG/creatinine than the controls. Furthermore, SCC patients with complete or partial response to the chemotherapy showed a significant decrease in urinary 8-OHdG/creatinine while patients with no change or progressive disease showed an increase.

Abstract
An enzyme, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydrodeoxyguanosine triphosphatase (8-oxo-dGTPase), is present in various organisms and plays an important role in the control of spontaneous mutagenesis. The enzyme hydrolyzes 8-oxo-dGTP, an oxidized form of dGTP, to 8-oxo-dGMP, thereby preventing the occurrence of A:T to C:G transversion, caused by misincorporation. We isolated the mouse genomic sequence encoding the enzyme and elucidated its structure. The gene, named MTH1 for mutT homologue 1, is composed of at least five exons and spans approximately 9 kilobase pairs. A genomic region containing the pseudogene was also isolated. The promoter region for the gene is GC-rich, contains many AP-1 and AP-2 recognition sequences, and lacks a typical TATA box. Primer extension and S1 mapping analyses revealed the existence of multiple transcription initiation sites, among which a major site was defined as +1. The putative promoter region was placed upstream of the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase reporter gene, and control of expression of the gene was examined by introducing the construct into mouse NIH 3T3 cells. Deletion analysis indicated that a sequence from -321 to +9 carries the basic promoter activity while an adjacent region, spanning from +352 to +525 stimulates the frequency of transcription.

Abstract
8-hydroxyguanine (oh8Gua) is a major form of oxygen free radical-induced DNA damage. The oh8Gua nucleotide can pair with cytosine (C) and adenine (A) nucleotides which can cause G:C to T:A transversions. It is known that multiple repair systems for the correction of the oh8Gua exist in both mammalian and bacterial cells. Using the technique of gel mobility shift assay, protein(s) bound to the oh8Gua:C base pair in short fragments of DNA was detected in cell-free extracts of a human small-cell lung cancer cell line. This DNA binding activity was specific, since it was poorly detected with an unmodified G:C base pair containing oligonucleotide duplex and was affected by neither the unmodified G:C base pair nor an oh8Gua:A base pair containing oligonucleotide duplex. The partially purified protein which selectively binds to the oh8Gua:C base pair was shown by gel filtration column chromatography to have an apparent molecular mass of 52 kDa. The column fraction which showed the highest binding activity to the oh8Gua:C base pair was found to possess an enzymatic activity that specifically cleaves the oh8Gua containing oligonucleotide strand at both the 5' and 3' sides of the oh8Gua residue. These results indicate the presence of a protein(s) that is involved in a DNA repair pathway for the correction of the oh8Gua residue in human cells.

Abstract
The DNA adduct 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) has been widely used as a biomarker for oxidative stress. Bulky DNA adducts, which are detectable by the 32P-postlabelling method, provide evidence for exposure to and metabolic activation of large, mainly apolar compounds, e.g. polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. We determined both types of adducts in placental tissues of 30 term pregnancies and related the adduct levels to the exposure to tobacco smoke and the plasma antioxidant status. Urine and plasma continine concentrations were used to select 10 nonsmokers, 9 nonsmokers exposed to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) and 11 smoking women. Placental levels of 8-OHdG were 0.84 +/- 0.11, 0.90 +/- 0.21 and 0.83 +/- 0.20/10(5) deoxyguanosine bases (dG) for nonsmokers, nonsmokers exposed to ETS and smokers, respectively. The differences between the groups were not significant. Smoking women had significantly lower plasma vitamin C and beta-carotene concentrations than nonsmoking women or nonsmoking women exposed to environmental tobacco smoke. The 8-OHdG adduct level in placental DNA was inversely correlated with the plasma vitamin E concentration (r = -0.47, P < 0.05). There was no association between placental 8-OHdG adducts and vitamin A, C and beta-carotene in plasma. In total, 15 different adducts could be identified in the 30 placenta samples by the 32P-postlabelling method. There was a strong inter-individual variation in both the number of adducts and adduct intensities. No smoking-related or vitamin-related effects on adduct patterns or intensities were found. Our findings suggests that, within the limits of the methods used, tobacco smoke exposure during pregnancy does not lead to a measurable increase in placental DNA adduct levels and that vitamin E appears to have a protective effect on placental 8-OHdG formation.

Abstract
It has been suggested that 8-hydroxyguanine (oh8Gua), a DNA adduct formed by active oxygens, impairs the maintenance of genetic integrity, oh8Gua glycosylase removes oh8Gua residues as a free base from DNA strands. In E. coli, it has been demonstrated that oh8Gua glycosylase is induced in response to oxidative stress, but the oxidative inducibility in mammalian tissues has not yet been studied. In the present study, the inducibility of oh8Gua glycosylase was tested by comparing activity changes of this enzyme in the kidney and the liver of rats treated with potassium bromate (KBrO3). KBrO3 is known to cause oxidative damage to the kidney but not to other organs. With a single dose of KBrO3 (80 mg/kg, i.p.), activity in the kidney was found to increase significantly at 3 h compared to that at zero time. At 6 h, activity peaked, showing a 6-fold increase over that at zero time. Thereafter, it decreased and returned to its zero time level at 12 h. With increasing doses of KBrO3 (up to 160 mg/kg, i.p.), activity increased linearly with increased dosage, and over 40 mg/kg, i.p., activity increased to a level significantly higher than that in the control. In contrast to the time- and dose-dependent changes in activity in the kidney, no significant change was observed in the liver under the same conditions as above. These results show that oh8Gua glycosylase is also induced oxidatively in mammalian tissues. The induction in this tissue as well as in E. coli indicates that the adaptive response of this enzyme to oxidative stress is a general phenomenon in aerobic organisms and implies that the repair of oh8Gua residues in DNA is a process important for the survival of organisms in an aerobic environment.

Abstract
Data regarding oxidatively modified DNA bases suggest that cancer cells are more exposed to oxidative stress than adjacent non-tumorous tissue. This novel concept may contribute to the understanding of certain aspects of tumor biology such as activated transcription factors, genetic instability, chemotherapy-resistance and metastasis. We therefore tested this concept in human renal-cell carcinomas (RCCs) by evaluating the expression of hMTH1, an enzyme preventing the misincorporation into DNA of 8-oxo-dGTP (8-oxo-7,8-dihydrodeoxyguanosine triphosphate), an oxidized form of dGTP in the nucleotide pool. The expression of hMTH1 messenger RNA (mRNA) in RCC was significantly higher than that in adjacent non-tumorous kidney. Moreover, advanced-stage tumors showed significantly higher hMTH1 mRNA expression than early-stage tumors, and there was a modest linear correlation between hMTH1 expression and c-myc expression. The results provide logical support for the concept of "persistent oxidative stress in cancer" and suggest a role of hMTH1 mRNA level as a prognostic marker.

Abstract
The induction of 8-hydroxyguanine (oh8Gua) endonuclease, a DNA repair enzyme for an oxidatively modified guanine, oh8Gua was studied in various growth conditions in Escherichia coli (AB1157). Anaerobically grown E. coli were found to have a very low activity of this enzyme while aerobically grown cells showed activity about 20 times that of the anaerobic level. Under the same condition, superoxide dismutase (SOD) showed about 6-fold increase in activity. A shift in growth conditions from anaerobic to aerobic resulted in rapid induction of this enzyme, and this induction was blocked (but not completely) by chloramphenicol. It is indicated that molecular oxygen is an effective stimulator to the induction of this enzyme and its induction depends partly on protein synthesis. Superoxide-producing compounds such as paraquat and menadione also increased the activity of endonuclease as well as SOD, but H2O2 showed no effect. Thus, superoxides are also implied as a stimulator. In contrast, hyperoxia induced only SOD not the endonuclease. This induction of the endonuclease by hyperoxia was only observed in a SOD-deficient strain (QC774). The aerobic activity of the endonuclease in QC774 was the same as that of wild types (AB1157, GC4468). It is implied that the responsiveness of oh8Gua endonuclease to superoxides is less sensitive than that of SOD. The endonuclease was also induced by a temperature shift from 30 to 43 degrees C and treatment with nalidixic acid. Among the stimuli used, molecular oxygen seems to be most effective for its induction. The inducible nature of this enzyme will serve as an important mechanism for the protection of oxidative DNA damage in the aerobic environment.

Abstract
Damage to DNA seems to be involved in aging and the etiology of age-associated degenerative diseases. The purpose of this study is to examine changes in DNA damage during aging. An oxidized nucleoside, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), is a proposed biomarker for DNA damaged by oxidative stress. The content of 8-OHdG in nuclear DNA isolated from brain, heart, liver, and kidneys of male Fischer 344 rats of different ages was measured, 8-OHdG can be detected selectively and sensitively at the fmol level by high performance liquid chromatography-electrochemical detection at an applied potential of +350 mV. The amount of 8-OHdG, expressed as the ratio to deoxyguanosine in nuclear DNA, in heart, liver, and kidney remained steady from 2 to 24 months and then increased progressively. The content of 8-OHdG in the DNA in brain showed no changes from 2 to 27 months, but was significantly higher in 30 month-old rats. There was a significant 2-fold increase in the amount of 8-OHdG in the nuclear DNA of all organs tested in 30 month-old rats as compared to 2-24 month-old rats. These results indicate that the accumulation of 8-OHdG in the DNA of rat organs begins at ages above 24 months.

Abstract
One type of oxidative DNA damage, 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua), is known to increase in rat kidney DNA after the administration of a renal carcinogen, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA). To determine the involvement of oxygen radicals in Fe-NTA carcinogenesis, we examined whether the 8-OH-Gua repair enzymes are induced in the rat kidney after Fe-NTA administration, in addition to our analysis of the 8-OH-Gua levels in the DNA, because the 8-OH-Gua repair activity is known to be induced in mammalian cells by oxidative stress due to ionizing radiation. The 8-OH-Gua repair enzyme activity was determined with an endonuclease assay using a 22-mer double strand DNA, which contains 8-OH-Gua at a specific position. A significant increase in the 8-OH-Gua repair activity was observed in the rat kidney after a single intraperitoneal injection of Fe-NTA (p < 0.01). This is the first report on the induction of the repair activity for 8-OH-Gua after treatment with a chemical carcinogen. This assay will be useful for evaluating the carcinogenicity of oxygen radical-forming chemicals.

Abstract
Oxidative DNA damage is the most frequent type of damage encountered by aerobic cells and may play an important role in biological processes such as mutagenesis, carcinogenesis and aging in humans. Oxidative damage generates a myriad of modifications in DNA. We investigated the cellular repair of DNA base damage products in DNA of cultured human lymphoblast cells, which were exposed to oxidative stress by H2O2. This DNA-damaging agent is known to cause base modifications in genomic DNA of mammalian cells [Dizdaroglu, M., Nackerdien, Z., Chao, B.-C., Gajewski, E. and Rao, G. (1991) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 285, 388-390]. Following treatment with H2O2, the culture medium was freed from H2O2 and cells were incubated for time periods ranging from 10 min to 6 h. DNA was isolated from control cells, hydrogen peroxide-treated cells and cells incubated after H2O2 exposure. DNA samples were analyzed by gas chromatography/isotope-dilution mass spectrometry. Eleven modified bases were identified and quantified. The results showed a significant formation of these DNA base products upon H2O2-treatment of cells. Subsequent incubation of cells caused a time-dependent excision of these products from cellular DNA. The cell viability did not change significantly by various treatments. There were distinct differences between the kinetics of excision of individual products. The observed excisions were attributed to DNA repair in cells. The rate of repair of purine lesions was slower than that of pyrimidine lesions. Most of the identified products are known to possess various premutagenic properties. The results of this work may contribute to the understanding of the cellular repair of oxidative DNA damage in human and other mammalian cells.
