<a><b>OBJECTIVE: </b></a>Acrylamide exposure from daily-consumed food has raised global concern.<b> </b>We aimed to assess the exposure-response relationships of internal acrylamide exposure with oxidative DNA damage, lipid peroxidation and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) alteration, and investigate the mediating role of oxidative DNA damage and lipid peroxidation in the association of internal acrylamide exposure with FPG. <p><b>RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS:</b> FPG and urinary biomarkers of oxidative DNA damage (8-hydroxy-deoxy-guanosine, 8-OHdG), lipid peroxidation (8-iso-prostaglandin-F2α, 8-iso-PGF2α) and acrylamide exposure (N-acetyl-S-(2-carbamoylethyl)-L-cysteine, AAMA; N-acetyl-S-(2-carbamoyl-2-hydroxyethyl)-L-cysteine, GAMA) were measured for 3,270 general adults from the Wuhan-Zhuhai cohort. The associations of urinary acrylamide metabolites with 8-OHdG, 8-iso-PGF2α and FPG were assessed by linear mixed models. The mediating roles of 8-OHdG and 8-iso-PGF2α were evaluated by mediation analysis.</p> <p><b>RESULTS:</b> We found significant linear positive dose-response relationships of urinary acrylamide metabolites with 8-OHdG, 8-iso-PGF2α and FPG (except GAMA with FPG), and 8-iso-PGF2α with FPG. Each 1-unit increase in log-transformed level of AAMA, ΣUAAM (AAMA+GAMA) or 8-iso-PGF2α was associated with a 0.17-, 0.15- or 0.23-mmol/L increase in FPG, respectively (<i>P </i>or/and<i> P trend</i><0.05). Each 1% increase in AAMA, GAMA or ΣUAAM was associated with a 0.19%, 0.27% or 0.22% increase in 8-OHdG, respectively, and a 0.40%, 0.48% or 0.44% increase in 8-iso-PGF2α, respectively (<i>P </i>and<i> P trend</i><0.05). Increased 8-iso-PGF2α rather than 8-OHdG significantly mediated 64.29% and 76.92% of the AAMA and ΣUAAM associated-FPG increases, respectively.</p> <p><b>CONCLUSIONS:</b> Exposure of general adult population to acrylamide was associated with FPG elevation, oxidative DNA damage and lipid peroxidation, which in turn partly mediated acrylamide-associated FPG elevation.<b></b></p>

In the blood serum of 70% individuals exposed to harmful factors of the working environment, a high level of oxidative stress and the DNA damage marker 8-Hydroxy-2’-Deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) were detected.

AbstractWe recently showed that when a low X-ray dose is used, cell death is enhanced in nucleus-irradiated compared with whole-cell-irradiated cells; however, the role of the cytoplasm remains unclear. Here, we show changes in the DNA damage responses with or without X-ray microbeam irradiation of the cytoplasm. Phosphorylated histone H2AX foci, a surrogate marker for DNA double-strand breaks, in V79 and WI-38 cells are not observed in nucleus irradiations at ≤ 2 Gy, whereas they are observed in whole-cell irradiations. Addition of an ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) kinase inhibitor to whole-cell irradiations suppresses foci formation at ≤ 2 Gy. ABL1 and p73 expression is upregulated following nucleus irradiation, suggesting the induction of p73-dependent cell death. Furthermore, CDKN1A (p21) is upregulated following whole-cell irradiation, indicating the induction of cell cycle arrest. These data reveal that cytoplasmic radioresponses modify ATM-mediated DNA damage responses and determine the fate of cells irradiated at low doses.

We investigated changes in 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) activity which is a product of oxidative DNA damage, histopathological changes and antioxidant responses in liver and gill tissues of rainbow trout, following a 21-day exposure to three different concentrations of linuron (30 µg/L, 120 µg/L and 240 µg/L). Our results indicated that linuron concentrations caused an increase in LPO levels of liver and gill tissues ( p < 0.05). While linuron induced both increases and decreases in GSH levels and SOD activity, CAT activity was decreased by all concentrations of linuron ( p < 0.05). The immunopositivity of 8-OHdG was detected in the hepatocytes of liver and in the epithelial and chloride cells of the secondary lamellae of the gill tissues. Our results suggested that linuron could cause oxidative DNA damage by causing an increase in 8-OHdG activity in tissues, and it induces histopathological damage and alterations in the antioxidant parameters of the tissues.
