Background: Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) is associated with chronic gastritis, peptic ulcers, gastric adenocarcinomas and mucosa associated tissue lymphomas. Cytotoxin associated gene A (CagA) is one of the virulence factors of H.pylori. It is hypothesized that reactive oxygen species (ROS) play roles in H.pylori associated disease especially in development of gastric adenocarcinoma. Individuals infected with H.pylori bearing CagA produce more ROS than others. 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8OHdG) is an in vitro marker of DNA damage and oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between 8OHdG level, H.pylori infection and CagA and alterations of serum 8OHdG level after H.pylori eradication. Materials and Methods: Patients admitted with dyspeptic complaints and upper gastrointestinal endoscopy were assessed. H.pylori was determined from histopathology of specimens. Serum 8OHdG levels of three groups (H.pylori negative, H. pylori positive CagA negative and H.pylori positive CagA positive) were compared. Patients with H.pylori infection received eradication therapy. Serum 8OHdG levels pretreatment and posttreatment were also compared. Results: In total, 129 patients (M/F, 57/72) were enrolled in the study. Serum 8OHdG level of H.pylori negative, H. pylori positive CagA negative and H.pylori positive CagA positive groups were significantly different ($5.77{\pm}1.35ng/ml$, $5.43{\pm}1.14ng/ml$ and $7.57{\pm}1.25ng/ml$ respectively, p=0.05). Furthermore, eradication therapy reduced serum 8OHdG level ($6.10{\pm}1.54ng/ml$ vs $5.55{\pm}1.23ng/ml$, p=0.05). Conclusions: Individuals infected with H.pylori bearing CagA strains have the highest serum 8OHdG level and eradication therapy decreases the serum 8OHdG level. To the best of our knowledge this is the first study that evaluated the effect of CagA virulence factor on serum 8OHdG level and the effect of eradication therapy on serum 8OHdG levels together. Eradication of CagA bearing H.pylori may prevent gastric adenocarcinoma by decreasing ROS. 8OHdG level may thus be a good marker for prevention from gastric adenocarcinoma.

허혈-재관류손상 심근세포의 DNA에서 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) 생성을 검토하였다. 흰쥐 적출심장의 Langendorff 관류 표본에서 대동맥 차단에 의한 60분 허혈후 산소가 포화된 Kredb-Henseleit용액으로 30분간 재관류 하므로서 허혈-재관류 손상을 유도하였다. 재관류 후 심근세포에서 DNA를 추출하고 HPLC(EC detector)를 이용하여 8-OHdG를 측정하였다. 실험결과 허혈-재관류 심근세포의 DNA에서 8-OHdG 함량이 증가하였으며 이는 $O_2$ 제거물질인 superoxide dismutase와 OH 제거물질인 mannitol에 의하여 방지되었다. Xanthine oxidase외 경쟁적 길항약인 allopurinol도 8-OHdG 생성을 억제하였으며 단백분해효소 억제제인 phenylsulfonylfluoride 그리고 관류액에서 칼슘의 제거 또한 허혈-재관류 심근 DNA의 생성을 방지하였다. 이상의 결과 허혈심근의 재관류시 8-OHdG 생성이 증가하며 이는 재관류 손상과 같은 산화성 심근손상을 평가하는 좋은 Index가 될 수 있을 것으로 여겨진다.

To investigate a short term screening method for carcinogenic quinone compounds, 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), an oxidative DNA damage, was determined in the kidney and liver DNA isolated from Sprague-Dawley rats after i.p.injection of 7 mg/kg adriamycin (AM), 7mg/kg tetrahydropyranyladriamycin (THP), and 10mg/kg daunomycin (DM) by HPLC-electrochemical detector system. 8-OHdG was also determined from rat hepatocvtes and calf thymus DNA exposed to AM, DM and THP. When rats were treated with DM and THP, 8-OHdG was significantly increased in the kidney compared to control group, and remained at high level (7.9~9.0, 8-OHdG/dG${\times}10^4$)at the end of experiments (48hr after treatment). 8-OHdG level in cultured hepatocyte exposed to AM, DM and THP was 1.5~2 fold higher than control at all time points. (1,2,3,4hr after treatment). From calf thymus DNA exposed to AM, DM and THP, 8-OHdG was 2.5 fold higher than of control. These results suggest that quantitation of 8-OHdG may provide a useful marker for identifying target organ in oxidative chemical carcinogenesis and for short term screening of free radical generating carcinogens.

Objectives: Oxidative stress and DNA damage have been proposed as mechanisms linking pesticide exposure to health effects such as cancer and neurological diseases. We investigated whether protective measures could significantly reduce the levels of biomarkers for oxidative stress and DNA damage in agricultural workers. Methods: In the present study, the levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), biomarkers related to oxidative stress and DNA damage, respectively, were analyzed in urine samples collected from agricultural workers in two provinces of Korea (n=60). The influence of wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) and performing protective behaviors on the levels of these two biomarkers was also evaluated. Results: The median urinary levels of MDA and 8-OHdG were 10.45 nmol/mg creatinine and 14.42 ng/mg creatinine in subjects living in region A, while they were 6.25 nmol/mg creatinine and 24.77 ng/mg creatinine in subjects living in region B, respectively. The levels of MDA and 8-OHdG were higher in male farmers. Farmers wearing greater numbers of PPE and performing more protective behaviors had significantly lower levels of MDA. Greater numbers of protective behaviors was significantly associated with lower levels of 8-OHdG. Conclusion: The results of the present study indicate that pesticide exposure could induce oxidative stress and DNA damage in agricultural workers, and that protective measures are important for mitigating pesticide exposure.

Objective: The aim was to investigate indicators related to DNA damage and cancer pathogenesis in Type II diabetes cases with breast cancer. It was planned to evaluate the relationship between these markers with oral antidiabetic drugs. Research Design and Methods: Fourty patients and 10 healthy individuals were included in the study. HIF-$1{\alpha}$ and 8-OHdG are examined in blood samples taken from these individuals with an ELISA Kit. Statistical analysis of data was performed with 95% confidence using Windows package program SPSS 15.0. Results: HIF-$1{\alpha}$ parameters were found to be meaningfully higher in the patient group than the controls in both pretreatment and posttreatment periods (p<0.05). No significant differences in terms of 8-OHdG between patients and controls. However, posttreatment serum HIF-$1{\alpha}$ ve 8-OHdG levels was found lower than pretreatment levels in patients receiving metformin, but not with pioglitazone. Conversely, serum 8-OHdG levels decreased significantly in these patients. When patients were evaluated according to the treatment groups (pioglitazone vs. metfformin) no significant differences in terms of serum HIF-$1{\alpha}$ and 8-OHdG levels between treatment groups. Conclusions: HIF-$1{\alpha}$ levels decreased significantly in the patient group receiving metformin. However, there was no significant difference in terms of HIF-$1{\alpha}$ levels in the patients receiving pioglitazone.

To investigate the exposure effect of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), we analyzed the relationship between urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) concentration and PAHs exposure. The study population contained 44 workers in steel-pipe coating and paint manufacture industries. We measured airborne total PAHs as an external dose, urinary 1-hydroxypyrene (1-OHP) as an internal dose of PAHs exposure, and urinary 8-OHdG as an effective dose of oxidative DNA damage. There was significant correlation between the urinary concentration of l-OHP and the environmental concentration of PAHs, pyrene, urinary cotinine, AST, and GGT. The mean of urinary 8-OHdG was $17.07\pm1.706{\mu}g/g$ creatinine in workers exposed to airborne PAHs. There was significant correlation between the urinary concentration of 8-0HdG and the airborne concentration of PAHs. From the results of stepwise multiple regression analysis about 8-OHdG, significant independents was total PAHs. In this study, there were significant correlation between the urinary concentration of 8-OHdG and the airborne concentration of PAHs. The urinary 1-OHP was effective index as a biomarker of airborne PAHs in workplace. But it was influenced by non-occupational PAHs source, smoking and biomarkers of liver function test.

본 연구에서는 ALDH2 knockout 마우스를 이용하여 에탄올을 경구 투여한 후 간조직 및 뇌조직, 그리고 폐조직에서의 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) 농도를 측정하여 각 장기에서의 산화적 유전자 손상정도를 평가하고 ALDH2 효소활성과의 관련성을 파악하였다. 간조직의 8-OHdG 농도는 에탄올 투여에 의해서도 유의하게 증가하지만 ALDH2 효소의 결핍이 더욱 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 확인되었다. 또한, 뇌조직과 폐조직의 8-OHdG 농도도 에탄올에 의해 모두 유의하게 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며 폐조직에서의 8-OHdG 농도는 ALDH2 효소의 활성에 따라 유의하게 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 에탄올의 반복적인 투여는 간조직 뿐 아니라 뇌조직과 폐조직에서도 산화적 유전자 손상을 유발하는 것으로 확인되었으며, 적어도 에탄올에 의한 간조직과 폐조직에서의 산화적 유전자 손상은 ALDH2 활성이 결핍된 경우에 더욱 커지는 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구의 결과는 ALDH2 효소가 결핍된 사람에서 각종 암발생 위험도가 크게 나타나는 이유를 규명하는데 매우 중요한 근거자료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

In this study the effect of vitamin C administration on pregnancy rates during summer heat stress in dairy cows was examined. A total of 80 Holstein-Friesian cows were divided into control and treatment groups (n = 40 each). Control group animals were given 10 mL isotonic normal saline, and treatment group, Vitamin C (4 mg/kg) on artificial insemination day (day 0) and 4^th, 8^th and 12^th day post insemination. Pregnancy diagnosis was performed on 30^th day post insemination by ultrasonography. Blood samples were randomly taken from 11 animals from each group. Serum P₄, GSH, MDA and plasma 8-OHdG levels were determined by using ELISA method. Results showed that 8-OHdG levels were lower in treatment group on day 4, 8 and 12 (p < 0.05) compared with the control group. Similarly, pregnancy rate was higher in treatment group (32.5%) than control (22.5%), respectively. However, MDA, P₄ and GSH levels were similar in both groups at 4^th, 8^th and 12^th day. A gradual increase in P₄, and MDA levels, and a strong positive correlation between 0, 4^th (r = 0.54), 4, 8^th (r = 0.59) and 8, 12^th (r = 0.51) day was found. Similarly, GSH levels also showed positive correlation at days 0, 4^th (r = 0.47) and 4, 8^th (r = 0.56). However, a strong negative correlation (r = -0.56) between MDA day 0, and GSH day 8 was found. In conclusion, vitamin C application during insemination period in postpartum cows increases pregnancy rate, and reduces oxidative stress metabolite 8-OHdG levels.

본 연구는 국민건강영양조사 5기의 2011년 자료를 이용하여 만 19세 이상 남녀를 대상으로 비타민D 섭취량과 혈중 25OHD 농도, 골밀도와의 관계를 분석하였다. 평균 비타민D 섭취량은 남성이 $3.84{\pm}0.23{\mu}g/day$, 여성은 $2.22{\pm}0.11{\mu}g/day$로 나타났으며, AI 미만 섭취 비율은 남성은 71.6~96.6%,여성은 80.2~98.5%로 모두 높게 나타났으며 여성이 남성에 비해 더 높았다. 혈중 25OHD 농도는 연령이 높아질수록 증가했으며, 혈중 25OHD의 결핍수준을 20 ng/mL 미만으로 보았을 때 남성은 47.8~81.1%, 여성은 59.4~92.8%의 결핍률을 보였고 젊은 층의 결핍률이 더 높았다. 50세 미만과 이상으로 나누어 비타민D 섭취량과 혈중 25OHD 농도, BMD와의 관계를 조사한 결과 50세 미만 연령층군에서는 비타민D 섭취량이 $10{\mu}g/day$ 이상인 군이 $5{\mu}g/day$ 이하인 군에 비하여 유의하게 혈중 25OHD 농도가 더 높았으며, 50세 이상 여성에서는 비타민D 섭취량이 $10{\mu}g/day$ 이상인 군이 $5{\mu}g/day$ 이하인 군에 비하여 골밀도가 유의하게 높게 나타났다. 즉, 한국 성인 남녀의 비타민D 섭취량 수준은 상당히 취약한 상태이나 식사를 통한 비타민D가 혈중 25OHD 농도를 상승시킬 수 있음을 보여주고 있다. 그러므로 한국인이 비타민D 섭취량을 늘릴 수 있도록 강화식품 정책 등을 통해 비타민D 섭취량을 늘리는 방안을 모색하여야 한다. 특히, 2010년에 비해 2015년 한국인영양소섭취기준에서 19~49세 연령층의 비타민D 충분섭취량을 $5{\mu}g$에서 $10{\mu}g$으로 상향조정한 것은 바람직한 방향으로 개정된 것으로 판단된다.
