Oxidative DNA damage in diabetes mellitus: its association with diabetic complications

Abstract: Hyperglycaemia, a key clinical manifestation of diabetes mellitus, not only generates reactive oxygen species (ROS), but also attenuates anti-oxidative mechanisms by scavenging enzymes and antioxidant substances [1]. As ROS cause strand breaks in DNA and base modifications including the oxidation of guanine residues to 8-oxo, 2 ¢-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG), 8-oxodG can serve as a sensitive biomarker of oxidative DNA damage [2]. 8-OxodG was increased in the kidneys of diabetic rats, and insulin treatment reduced … Show more

“…SevThe link between hyperglycaemia and the complications of diabetes is still not clear. Increased oxidative stress in diabetes might contribute to the pathogenesis of diabetic complications, including nephropathy [2, eral reports described an increase in the 8-oxodG content in mononuclear cells and urine in Type I and Type II (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic patients [8,9,10]. We have reported a significant relation between the urinary or leukocyte 8-oxodG or both and the severity of diabetic nephropathy and retinopathy [1].…”

“…It has been shown that in type 2 diabetic patients with diabetic nephropathy and/or retinopathy, levels of 8-OHdG are significantly higher than in diabetic patients without these complications. 70,71 Furthermore, in a prospective study, it was demonstrated that in type 2 diabetic patients, higher levels of urinary 8-OHdG were associated with the progression of diabetic nephropathy. 72 A recent study demonstrated that low doses of erythropoietin inhibit oxidative stress and early vascular changes in the experimental diabetic retina.…”

“…There is an increase in 8-oxodG levels in tissue of diabetic rats and in the urine of patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes (13)(14)(15), with the levels being significantly higher in patients with albuminuria or with other diabetic complications (16). The steadystate level of 8-oxodG in DNA reflects its rate of generation and of repair.…”
