ABSTRACT
AIMS:
To clarify the role of oxidative stress during breast carcinogenesis by studying the expression of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) (a marker of oxidative DNA damage) and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) (a marker of lipid peroxidation) during the different phases of breast carcinogenesis. METHODS ANDRESULTS:
The study material consisted of a total of 219 patients 31 with usual ductal hyperplasia (UDH), 25 with atypical ductal hyperplasia (ADH), 30 with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and 133 with invasive carcinoma. The expression of 8-OHdG and HNE were evaluated immunohistochemically. Both 8-OHdG (77.4%) and HNE (45.8%) expression was already seen in UDH lesions. Interestingly, the trend of these two immunostainings during breast carcinogenesis was diverse. 8-OHdG expression diminished significantly in invasive breast carcinomas compared to non-invasive lesions (P < 0.005 when set against non-invasive cohorts). Also within the same lesions, 8-OHdG expression was the most intensive in benign cells. Conversely, HNE immunostaining was strongest in invasive breast carcinomas (UDH versus invasive cohort, P = 0.015).CONCLUSIONS:
4-hydroxy-2-nonenal as a marker of lipid peroxidation increases during breast carcinogenesis, reflecting the role of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of breast cancer. However, 8-OHdG shows diminished levels in carcinomas, possibly resulting from the induction of DNA repair in these invasive lesions.
