Measurement of 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine metabolism in MCF-7 cells at low concentrations using accelerator mass spectrometry.

ABSTRACT: Growing evidence suggests that oxidative damage to cells generates mutagenic 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG), which may initiate diseases related to aging and carcinogenesis. Kinetic measurement of 8-oxodG metabolism and repair in cells has been hampered by poor assay sensitivity and by difficulty characterizing the flux of oxidized nucleotides through the relevant metabolic pathways. We report here the development of a sensitive and quantitative approach to characterizing the kinetics and metabolic sources of 8-oxodG in MCF-7 human breast cancer cells by accelerator mass spectrometry. We observed that [(14)C]8-oxodG at medium concentrations of up to 2 pmol/ml was taken up by MCF-7 cells, phosphorylated to mono-, di-, and triphosphate derivatives, and incorporated into DNA. Oxidative stress caused by exposure of the cells to 17beta-estradiol resulted in a reduction in the rate of [(14)C]8-oxodG incorporation into DNA and an increase in the ratio of 8-oxodG monophosphate (8-oxodGMP) to 8-oxodG triphosphate (8-oxodGTP) in the nucleotide pool. 17beta-Estradiol-induced oxidative stress up-regulated the nucleotide pool cleansing enzyme MTH1 and possibly other Nudix-related pyrophosphohydrolases. These data support the conclusion that 8-oxodGTP is formed in the nucleotide pool by both 8-oxodG metabolism and endogenous reactive oxygen species. The metabolism of 8-oxodG to 8-oxodGTP, followed by incorporation into DNA is a mechanism by which the cellular presence of this oxidized nucleoside can lead to mutations.

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.
