Effect of smoking cessation on oxidative DNA modification estimated by 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine excretion

Abstract: Smoking cessation significantly reduces the urinary excretion rate of 8-oxodG, giving direct and controlled evidence that cigarette smoking causes an increased rate of oxidative DNA modification. This could represent a mechanism by which tobacco smoke is carcinogenic.

“…Interestingly, treatment with oxidants has been shown to cause similar mutations in codons 248 -250 of p53 (Hussain et al, 1994). Prieme et al (1998) found a statistically significant effect of smoking cessation for 4 and 26 weeks on the urinary excretion rate of the DNA repair products between the control group and the smoking cessation group. The study gives direct evidence that smoking induces oxidative DNA modification.…”

“…Leanness may represent decreased biological functions against oxidative DNA stress induced by smoking and thus could be used as a marker of host susceptibility to smoking-related cancer. Because smoking cessation leads to a substantial decline of 8-OHdG levels (20), it is expected that lean smokers may have large health benefit from smoking cessation. It remains uncertain, however, whether leanness itself or factor related to leanness modulates the carcinogenic effect of smoking, and this point deserves further investigations, including a search for genetic profiles regarding metabolism of tobacco smoke or repair of DNA damage.…”

“…The major consequence for cell biology of the increase in ROS content is to enhance oxidative damage of some biological molecules of crucial relevance for cellular functions, such as deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), proteins and lipids, which leads to a deterioration or loss of their physicochemical properties and functions [3]. Increasing attention has been paid in the recognition of relevance that such an oxidative damage could play in tobacco-mediated diseases, since greater lipid peroxidation [4], DNA oxidation and DNA repair activity [5][6][7] have been demonstrated in smokers compared with nonsmokers [8].…”
