Screening methylation of DNA repair genes in the oral mucosa of chronic smokers

Abstract: The effects of chronic smoking on oral mucosa led to the methylation of genes MRE11A PMS2, XRCC1 and MLH3, but resulted in a reduction of gene expression of MRE11A and PMS2, which showed ≥50% methylation. These results provide evidence that smoking cause methylation and reduced expression of repair genes.

“…Besides, other previous studies found an altered expression of these genes in smokers, a group that is at risk of developing carcinogenesis, and, likewise, methylation and a reduction of the gene expression were also observed. 16 Wagner et al 23 observed a high expression of hMSH2 and they suggested that this can indicate a greater activation of the induced genomic instability. Therefore, we conjecture that MSH2 overexpression in OL and OSCC seen in our cases represents genomic instability that induced gene activation.…”

“…Low expression of these genes is associated with reduced DNA repair capacity and development of malignant lesions (40). Additionally, previous studies have reported that reduced expression of these genes is correlated with smoking-induced methylation in smokers at risk of cancer (41). DSBs are mainly repaired by the HR and NHEJ pathways.…”
