Smoking-related O4-ethylthymidine formation in human lung tissue and comparisons with bulky DNA adducts.
Tobacco smoke contains many alkylating agents that can react with DNA to produce O(4)-ethylthymidine (O(4)-etT) and several other types of promutagenic base modifications. Our aims were (i) to confirm results of a pilot study (Godschalk, R., Nair, J., Schooten, F. J., Risch, A., Drings, P., Kayser, K., Dienemann, H. and Bartsch, H. (2002) Comparison of multiple DNA adduct types in tumor adjacen...
متن کاملChinese green tea consumption reduces oxidative stress, inflammation and tissues damage in smoke exposed rats
Objective(s):One cause of cigarette smoking is oxidative stress that may alter the cellular antioxidant defense system, induce apoptosis in lung tissue, inflammation and damage in liver, lung, and kidney. It has been shown that Chinese green tea (CGT) (Lung Chen Tea) has higher antioxidant property than black tea. In this paper, we will explore the preventive effect of CGT on cigarette smoke-in...
متن کاملComparison of DNA adducts and sister chromatid exchange in lung cancer cases and controls.
In a molecular epidemiological study of lung cancer cases (n = 81) and noncancer controls (n = 67), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-DNA adducts were evaluated in peripheral blood leukocytes from all subjects and in a smaller number of lung tissue specimens collected prior to or at surgery. Sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) in lymphocytes were also studied in a subset of cases and controls....
متن کاملA Concept Suggestion on the Effect of Cigarette Smoking in Inflammatory Destruction of Gingiva
Dear Editor, Cigarette smoking has destructive effect on periodontal tissue. The rates of loss of periodontal attachment and recession of gingival are higher in smokers than non-smokers (1-2). Previous studies on the inflammatory immune responses in smokers’ periodontitis have mainly focused on the role of neutrophils. Tumor necrosis factor–α, prostaglandin E2 and matrix metalloproteinase...
متن کاملCYP1A1 and GSTM1 genotypes affect benzo[a]pyrene DNA adducts in smokers' lung: comparison with aromatic/hydrophobic adduct formation.
Benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxide (BPDE)-DNA adducts are involved in the induction of p53 mutations and probably in the causation of human lung cancer associated with cigarette smoking. The ratio between CYP1A1 and GST enzyme activities is a critical determinant of the target dose of carcinogenic BPDE and other DNA-reactive PAH metabolites. In this review, we summarize the published data on modulatio...
