Quantitative detection of 8-Oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine using chemical tagging and qPCR.

ABSTRACT: 8-Oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGuo) is a commonly formed DNA lesion that is useful as a biomarker for oxidative stress. Although methods for selective quantification of 8-oxodGuo exist, there is room for additional methods that are sensitive and utilize instrumentation that is widely available. We previously took advantage of the reported reactivity of 8-oxodGuo to develop a method for detecting the lesion by selectively covalently tagging it with a molecule equipped with a biotin label that can be used subsequently with a reporting method ( Xue , L. and Greenberg , M. M. ( 2007 ) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 129 , 7010 ). We now report a method that can detect as little as 14 amol of 8-oxodGuo by tagging DNA with a reagent containing a disulfide that reduces background due to nonspecific binding. The reagent also contains biotin that enables capturing target DNA on streptavidin-coated magnetic beads. The captured DNA is quantified using quantitative PCR. The method is validated by comparing the amount of 8-oxodGuo detected as a function of Fe(2+)/H2O2/ascorbate-dose to that reported previously using mass spectrometry.

Project description:Analysis of cellular 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dGuo) as a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage has been fraught with numerous methodological problems. This is primarily due to artifactual oxidation of dGuo that occurs during DNA isolation and hydrolysis. Therefore, it has become necessary to rely on using the comet assay, which is not necessarily specific for 8-oxo-dGuo. A highly specific and sensitive method based on immunoaffinity purification and stable isotope dilution liquid chromatography (LC)-multiple reaction monitoring (MRM)/mass spectrometry (MS) that avoids artifact formation has now been developed. Cellular DNA was isolated using cold DNAzol (a proprietary product that contains guanidine thiocyanate) instead of chaotropic- or phenol-based methodology. Chelex-treated buffers were used to prevent Fenton chemistry-mediated generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and artifactual oxidation of DNA bases. Deferoxamine was also added to all buffers in order to complex any residual transition metal ions remaining after Chelex treatment. The LC-MRM/MS method was used to determine that the basal 8-oxo-dGuo level in DNA from human bronchoalveolar H358 cells was 2.2 +/- 0.4 8-oxo-dGuo/10(7) dGuo (mean +/- standard deviation) or 5.5 +/- 1.0 8-oxo-dGuo/10(8) nucleotides. Similar levels were observed in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells, mouse hepatoma Hepa-1c1c7 cells, and human HeLa cervical epithelial adenocarcinoma cells. These values are an order of magnitude lower than is typically reported for basal 8-oxo-dGuo levels in DNA as determined by other MS- or chromatography-based assays. H358 cells were treated with increasing concentrations of potassium bromate (KBrO3) as a positive control or with the methylating agent methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) as a negative control. A linear dose-response for 8-oxo-dGuo formation (r(2) = 0.962) was obtained with increasing concentrations of KBrO3 in the range of 0.05 mM to 2.50 mM. In contrast, no 8-oxo-dGuo was observed in H358 cell DNA after treatment with MMS. At low levels of oxidative DNA damage, there was an excellent correlation between a comet assay that measured DNA single strand breaks (SSBs) after treatment with human 8-oxo-guanine glycosylase-1 (hOGG1) when compared with 8-oxo-dGuo in the DNA as measured by the stable isotope dilution LC-MRM/MS method. Availability of the new LC-MRM/MS assay made it possible to show that the benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P)-derived quinone, B[a]P-7,8-dione, could induce 8-oxo-dGuo formation in H358 cells. This most likely occurred through redox cycling between B[a]P-7,8-dione and B[a]P-7,8-catechol with concomitant generation of DNA damaging ROS. In keeping with this concept, inhibition of catechol-O-methyl transferase (COMT)-mediated detoxification of B[a]P-7,8-catechol with Ro 410961 caused increased 8-oxo-dGuo formation in the H358 cell DNA.
