Abstract
Oxidative stress (OS) arises from an imbalance between excessive oxidant radicals and insufficient antioxidant defences, leading to damage to lipids, proteins or DNA. OS levels in humans are influenced by health, nutrition, and environmental exposures. A key biomarker of endogenous oxidative DNA damage is 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). To assess baseline OS, we analysed 8-OHdG levels in first-morning urine samples from adults in the Valencia Community (Spain) using a UHPLC-MS/MS method based on a “dilute-and-shoot” sample preparation. Both 8-OHdG and the nucleoside 2’-dG were quantified in over 92 % of samples, with geometric means of 6.23 and 3.26 µg/L, respectively. Urinary 8-OHdG was directly associated with smoking status, and the levels of urinary metabolites of acrylamide. The oxidation ratio (8-OHdG/2’-dG) also showed correlations with sex and age. The results provide valuable reference data for future epidemiological and toxicological studies and highlight the oxidative stress effects of smoking.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology publishes the results of studies concerning toxic and pharmacological effects of (human and veterinary) drugs and of environmental contaminants in animals and man.
Areas of special interest are: molecular mechanisms of toxicity, biotransformation and toxicokinetics (including toxicokinetic modelling), molecular, biochemical and physiological mechanisms explaining differences in sensitivity between species and individuals, the characterisation of pathophysiological models and mechanisms involved in the development of effects and the identification of biological markers that can be used to study exposure and effects in man and animals.
In addition to full length papers, short communications, full-length reviews and mini-reviews, Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology will publish in depth assessments of special problem areas. The latter publications may exceed the length of a full length paper three to fourfold. A basic requirement is that the assessments are made under the auspices of international groups of leading experts in the fields concerned. The information examined may either consist of data that were already published, or of new data that were obtained within the framework of collaborative research programmes. Provision is also made for the acceptance of minireviews on (classes of) compounds, toxicities or mechanisms, debating recent advances in rapidly developing fields that fall within the scope of the journal.
