Abstract
Increased DNA damage has been suggested to contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory diseases, but controlled studies are lacking in ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Therefore, we assessed oxidative stress, oxidative DNA damage, chromosomal DNA damage, cell proliferation and cell death in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of patients with AS as well as the possible role of DNA damage in the development of the disease. In total, 25 newly diagnosed AS patients who had not received anti-inflammatory agents and 25 healthy controls were recruited. Oxidative DNA damage was assessed by plasma 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels, and chromosomal DNA damage was assessed by the cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome (CBMN-cyt) method. Compared to controls, the micronucleus (MN) frequencies, nucleoplasmic bridge (NPB) frequencies, nuclear bud (NBUD) frequencies, apoptotic cell frequencies, necrotic cell frequencies and plasma 8-OHdG levels were significantly higher in patients with AS (p < 0.001, p < 0.05, p < 0.01, p < 0.001, p < 0.001, and p < 0.001, respectively), and the metaphase cell numbers, binucleated (BN) cell frequencies and nuclear division index (NDI) values were significantly lower in patients with AS (p < 0.01, p < 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively). Thus, the present findings suggested that oxidative stress, oxidative DNA damage, and chromosomal DNA damage may be involved in the pathogenesis of AS similar to other chronic inflammatory diseases. In addition, the increased plasma 8-OHdG levels, MN frequencies, NPB frequencies and NBUD frequencies in AS patients may reflect an increased cancer risk.

Whole-exome sequencing and bioinformatic analyses revealed differences in gene mutation profiles in papillary thyroid cancer patients with and without benign thyroid goitre background. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2023; 13:1039494. [PMID: 36686473 PMCID: PMC9846740 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.1039494] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/07/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common thyroid malignancy. Concurrent presence of cytomorphological benign thyroid goitre (BTG) and PTC lesion is often detected. Aberrant protein profiles were previously reported in patients with and without BTG cytomorphological background. This study aimed to evaluate gene mutation profiles to further understand the molecular mechanism underlying BTG, PTC without BTG background and PTC with BTG background. Methods Patients were grouped according to the histopathological examination results: (i) BTG patients (n = 9), (ii) PTC patients without BTG background (PTCa, n = 8), and (iii) PTC patients with BTG background (PTCb, n = 5). Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed on genomic DNA extracted from thyroid tissue specimens. Nonsynonymous and splice-site variants with MAF of ≤ 1% in the 1000 Genomes Project were subjected to principal component analysis (PCA). PTC-specific SNVs were filtered against OncoKB and COSMIC while novel SNVs were screened through dbSNP and COSMIC databases. Functional impacts of the SNVs were predicted using PolyPhen-2 and SIFT. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) enrichment of the tumour-related genes was analysed using Metascape and MCODE algorithm. Results PCA plots showed distinctive SNV profiles among the three groups. OncoKB and COSMIC database screening identified 36 tumour-related genes including BRCA2 and FANCD2 in all groups. BRAF and 19 additional genes were found only in PTCa and PTCb. "Pathways in cancer", "DNA repair" and "Fanconi anaemia pathway" were among the top networks shared by all groups. However, signalling pathways related to tyrosine kinases were the most significantly enriched in PTCa while "Jak-STAT signalling pathway" and "Notch signalling pathway" were the only significantly enriched in PTCb. Ten SNVs were PTC-specific of which two were novel; DCTN1 c.2786C>G (p.Ala929Gly) and TRRAP c.8735G>C (p.Ser2912Thr). Four out of the ten SNVs were unique to PTCa. Conclusion Distinctive gene mutation patterns detected in this study corroborated the previous protein profile findings. We hypothesised that the PTCa and PTCb subtypes differed in the underlying molecular mechanisms involving tyrosine kinase, Jak-STAT and Notch signalling pathways. The potential applications of the SNVs in differentiating the benign from the PTC subtypes requires further validation in a larger sample size.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Gaucher disease (GD) is caused by a genetic deficiency of the beta-glucocerebrosidase enzyme which results in the accumulation of glucosylceramide in macrophages. This accumulation may induce oxidative stress, resulting in DNA damage in patients with GD. The aim of this study was to assess plasma 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels and cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome (CBMN-cyt) assay parameters in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of patients with GD and carriers, evaluate the possible associations of these values with GD, and determine whether they can be used as potential biomarkers in GD. METHODS This study included 20 patients with type 1 GD, six carriers, and 27 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. CBMN-cyt assay parameters in peripheral blood lymphocytes of the patients with GD, carriers, and controls were evaluated and 8-OHdG levels in their plasma samples were measured. RESULTS CBMN-cyt assay parameters in patients with GD and carriers were not significantly different when compared with controls (p > 0.05). However, plasma 8-OHdG levels were found to be higher in both patients with GD and carriers than in control subjects (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Oxidative DNA damage may be a useful prognostic tool, whereas the CBMN-cyt assay cannot be used as a predictive biomarker of GD.

Abstract
Nodular hyperplasia of the thyroid is a process whereby the gland experiences growth by nodular expansion of thyroid parenchyma. We have encountered 45 patients in whom the process was caused by the growth of well-defined and sharply circumscribed but unencapsulated nodules composed of oncocytic thyroid follicular cells. The lesions arose in 39 women and 6 men, aged 25-69 years (mean = 50.3 years). The surrounding thyroid parenchyma showed features of chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis. The nodules varied from microscopic to 5 cm and appeared to compress the surrounding thyroid parenchyma. Most of the lesions lacked a well-defined capsule. In 26 tumors, the nodules displayed a predominantly follicular pattern of growth; in 8 cases there were admixtures of follicular and trabecular patterns with focal solid areas devoid of follicles. Clinical follow-up in 39 patients ranging from 7 to 22 years (median = 16 years) showed no evidence of recurrence, metastasis, or malignant transformation. One patient died of unknown causes 15 years after the diagnosis, and another patient died 4 years after diagnosis from metastatic colonic adenocarcinoma. Oncocytic nodular hyperplasia is a benign process associated with chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis that should be distinguished from benign and malignant oncocytic (Hurthle cell) tumors of the thyroid.

Abstract
Exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) has been linked to the development of certain diseases. However, the relationship between PAH exposure and thyroid disorders remains unknown. We measured 10 of the most common hydroxylated PAHs (OH-PAHs) in the urine of thyroid nodular goiter (NG) patients, papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients, and healthy controls by gas chromatography-triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). We found that the concentrations of 2-hydroxyfluorene (2-OH-FLU), 2-hydroxydibenzofuran (2-OH-DBF), and 1-hydroxyphenanthrene (1-OH-PHE) in the NG group, and of 2-hydroxynaphthalene (2-OH-NAP), 2-OH-DBF, and 1-OH-PHE in the PTC group were significantly higher than those in controls. In addition, participants in the high tertiles of 2-OH-FLU and 1-OH-PHE had higher risk of NG. Besides these two OH-PAHs, elevated risk of NG was observed in women in the high tertiles of 1-hydroxynaphthalene (1-OH-NAP), 2-OH-NAP, 2-OH-DBF, and 3-hydroxyfluorene (3-OH-FLU). Furthermore, participants in the high tertiles of seven OH-PAHs, namely, 1-OH-NAP, 2-OH-NAP, 2-OH-DBF, 2-OH-FLU, 3-OH-FLU, 3/9-hydroxyphenanthrene (3/9-OH-PHE), and 1-OH-PHE, had elevated risk of PTC, and females in these high tertiles had an even higher risk of PTC. Our findings suggest that PAH exposure may increase the risk of NG/PTC, and there may be a gender-specific effect of PAH exposure on the development of NG/PTC.

Abstract
The thyroid is not necessary to sustain life. However, thyroid hormones (TH) strongly affect the human body. Functioning of the thyroid gland affects the reproductive capabilities of women and men, as well as fertilization and maintaining a pregnancy. For the synthesis of TH, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is necessary. From the chemical point of view, TH is a reactive oxygen species (ROS) and serves as an oxidative stress (OS) promoter. H2O2 concentration in the thyroid gland is much higher than in other tissues. Therefore, the thyroid is highly exposed to OS. 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) are DNA lesions resulting from ROS action onto guanine moiety. Due to their abundance, they are recognized as biomarkers of OS. As thyroid function is correlated with the level of OS, 8-oxodG and 8-OHdG has been taken under consideration. Studies correlate the oxidative DNA damage with various thyroid diseases (TD) such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT), Graves' disease (GD), and thyroid cancer. Human sexual function and fertility are also affected by OS and TD. Hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism diagnosed in pregnant women have a negative effect on pregnancy as it may increase the risk of miscarriage or fetus mortality. In the case of TD in the mother, fetal health is also at risk - neurodevelopment and cognitive function of the child may be impaired in its future life. This review presents thyroid function in the context of TD during pregnancy. The authors introduce OS and describe oxidative DNA lesions as a crucial marker of thyroid pathologies.

Abstract
Statins are a group of cholesterol lowering drugs and frequently used in the therapy of dyslipidemia. Our knowledge of the impact of statin therapy on DNA damage is as yet rudimentary. In this study, we aimed to assess the possible (1) genotoxic, cytostatic, and cytotoxic effects of statins in peripheral blood lymphocytes by using the cytokinesis-block micronucleus cytome (CBMN-cyt) assay, and (2) oxidative DNA damage by measuring plasma 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels in response to statin therapy. Thirty patients with dyslipidemia who had no chronic diseases and did not use any medicines that interfere lipid values and twenty control subjects were included in the study. Statin therapy was initiated at risk-stratified doses. Blood samples were taken before and after treatment with statins and from control subjects, and CBMN-cyt assay parameters and 8-OHdG levels were evaluated. The chromosomal DNA damage (micronuclei and nucleoplasmic bridges [NPBs]), cytostasis (nuclear division index [NDI]), and cytotoxicity (apoptotic and necrotic cell frequencies) were decreased in patients with dyslipidemia after statin treatment. No significant differences were found for 8-OHdG levels between patients with dyslipidemia before or after statin therapy. The total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels showed positive correlations with NPB frequency in patients with dyslipidemia prior to statin treatment. The present study is the first to evaluate CBMN-cyt assay biomarkers and 8-OHdG levels in patients with dyslipidemia before and after treatment with statins. The observed reductions of chromosomal DNA damage and NDI values with statin treatment could represent an important and under-appreciated pleiotropic effect of these agents. Impact statement In literature, it is possible to find some in vitro cytokinesis-block micronucleus (CBMN) assay studies about human lymphocytes and statins. But, there are no data on CBMN-cytome (CBMN-cyt) assay parameters related to statin therapy in patients with dyslipidemia. The present study is the first to evaluate CBMN-cyt assay biomarkers and 8-OHdG levels in patients with dyslipidemia before treatment and after treatment with statins (5–10 mg/day rosuvastatin or 10–20 mg/day atorvastatin). In this study we show that statin therapy decreased chromosomal DNA damage (micronuclei and nucleoplasmic bridges) and nuclear division index (NDI) values in patients with dyslipidemia by possible molecular reasons independent of oxidative DNA damage. In addition, the decrease of chromosomal DNA damage and NDI values with statin treatment could be indicated by the association between statin use and reduced risk of cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Thyroid nodules (TNs) are highly prevalent worldwide and have a pattern of female predominance. Bisphenol A (BPA) is an endocrine disruptor that can lead to adverse effects in human health. However, epidemiologic studies revealing the association between BPA exposure and TNs are limited and the results are inconsistent. We aimed to examine the association between urinary BPA and TNs in women who are more susceptible to TNs. METHODS We conducted a case-control study with 1416 women aged 18 years or older (705 cases, 711 controls). All participants underwent thyroid ultrasonography. Urinary total BPA (free and conjugated) concentration was quantified using the HPLC-MS/MS. We analyzed the association between urinary BPA concentration and the risk of TNs using crude and multivariable logistic regression models. Participants were further stratified into thyroid autoantibody positive group (at least one positive) and thyroid autoantibody negative group (both negative) according to the thyroglobulin antibody (TGAb) and thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) levels, and restricted cubic spline regression was also applied to determine the possible nonlinear relationship between urinary BPA and TNs. RESULTS Compared with women in the first quartile, the odds of TNs was 72% (adjusted OR = 1.72, 95% CI: 1.25 to 2.35) higher for those in the second quartile, 54% (adjusted OR = 1.54, 95% CI: 1.12 to 2.12) higher for those in the third quartile, and 108% (adjusted OR = 2.08, 95% CI: 1.50 to 2.90) higher for those in the fourth quartile after adjusting for age, BMI, education, HDL-C, LDL-C, triglyceride, total cholesterol, urinary iodine, TGAb and TPOAb. When the study population was stratified into thyroid autoantibody positive group and thyroid autoantibody negative group, we found that only in the positive group, the association was significant in model 1 (crude OR = 2.80; 95% CI = 1.90 to 4.12), model 2 (adjusted OR = 2.84; 95% CI = 1.91 to 4.22), model 3 (adjusted OR = 4.01; 95% CI = 2.57 to 6.27) and model 4 (adjusted OR = 3.71; 95% CI = 2.36 to 5.83). Multivariable-adjusted restricted cubic spline analysis demonstrated a similar result that in the thyroid autoantibody positive group, the association between urinary BPA and TNs risk was near linear (P-overall <0.001; P-non-linear = 0.054). CONCLUSION In Chinese women, higher urinary BPA concentration was associated with increased risk of TNs only in those with positive thyroid autoantibodies. Moreover, this association was near linear, indicating that any rise in BPA exposure was associated with elevated TNs risk.

OBJECTIVES A discussion with regard to the most optimal surgical procedure in nontoxic multinodular goitre (NTMNG). We assessed and compared three main types of operations in 2032 patients with NTMNG. METHODS This is a retrospective study of 2032 patients operated on in one center due to NTMNG. The observation period was 48 to 120 months (mean and SD: 87 ± 20). RESULTS The early complications included uni- and bilateral recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis (URLNP, BRLNP), overt tetany (OT), and postoperative bleeding (POB). We observed after TT, STT, and DO URLNP: 15 (1.73%), 3 (0.64%), and 2 (0.28%), respectively (p < 0.05); BRLNP: 3 (0.34%), 2 (0.43%), and 0 (0.0%), respectively (p = 0.25); OT: 42 (4.84%), 6 (1.29%), and 9 (1.28%), respectively (p < 0.0001); and POB: 11 (1.26%), 4 (0.86%), and 3 (0.42%), respectively (p = 0.209). Persistent complications we observed after TT, STT, and DO are the following: URLNP: 9 (1.03%), 3 (0.64%), and 1 (0.14%), respectively (p = 0.086); BRLNP: 1 (0.11%), 1 (0.21%), and 0 (0.0%), respectively (p = 0.51); and OT: 11 (1.26%), 2 (0.43%), and 2 (0.28%), respectively (p = 0.052). Incidental thyroid cancer (ITC) was recognized after TT, STT, and DO in 18 (2.07%), 21 (4.52%), and 11 (1.56%), respectively (p = 0.039). Recurrent goitre (RG) was observed in 1 (0.11%) after TT, 3 (0.64%) after STT, and 2 (0.28%) after DO (p = 0.234). CONCLUSIONS Performing less radical surgery in NTMNG is associated with a significantly lower risk of early and late URLNP and OT. In the case of BRLNP (early and persistent) and POB, no statistically significant differences are seen. The occurrence of ITC is higher following more radical surgeries. Less radical surgery is connected with a higher risk of RG.
