Summary: The development of an advanced sensor for the biomarker 8-OHdG on a low-cost graphite screen-printed electrode was reported in this study, which showed resistance to interference by dopamine, ascorbic acid, and uric acid. A simple treatment method based on uricase was optimized to eliminate interference caused by uric acid, and the sensor was successfully applied to the determination of 8-OHdG in synthetic urine samples with a recovery rate of 95%.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the impact of oxidative stress induced by habitual physical activity on outcome measures in IVF patients. The results showed that physical activity was positively related to the number of matured oocytes, embryo quality, and ss-hCG levels. Additionally, a positive correlation was found between 8-OHdG and ss-hCG levels, and there were significant differences in 8-OHdG levels in biochemical pregnancies.

Summary: This study evaluated the levels of urinary 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and 8-iso-prostaglandin F2 alpha (8-IsoF2 alpha) in prostate cancer patients to assess oxidative stress damage. The results showed that patients had significantly higher levels of these biomarkers before surgery, but these levels significantly decreased three months after robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) and were comparable to healthy controls. These urinary biomarkers have the potential to be used for early prevention and successful treatment of prostate cancer, but further large-sized studies and long-term follow-ups are needed for validation.

Summary: This study investigated the relationship between stress hormones and oxidative DNA damage in human hypertension. The results showed that urinary cortisol levels were significantly positively correlated with 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, a marker of oxidative DNA damage. However, urinary adrenaline or noradrenaline did not show a significant correlation with 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. These findings suggest that the overactivation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis may contribute to oxidative stress and DNA oxidation in primary hypertension.

Summary: This study evaluated the presence of oxidative DNA damage biomarker 8-hydroxy-2-deoxyguanosine (8OHdG) in children with autism and assessed its association with disease severity and omega supplementation. The results showed significantly higher urinary 8-OH-dG/creatinine levels in children with autism compared to healthy peers, with a positive association with disease duration, severity, and family history. Furthermore, autistic children who received omega 3 had significantly lower urinary 8-OH-dG/creatinine levels than those who didn't receive it.

Summary: Excessive exposure to fluoride can cause damage to both bones and soft tissues, and is believed to induce oxidative DNA damage. This study investigated the effects of fluoride on 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) expression in various tissues of rats exposed to different concentrations of fluoride for different time periods. The results showed that fluoride accumulation in soft tissues varied significantly. The expression patterns of 8-OHdG in response to fluoride were tissue-specific and non-monotonic, with differences observed between the first and third months of fluoride exposure. Correlation analysis revealed inverse correlations between blood 8-OHdG and blood fluoride levels, as well as dental fluorosis grade. These findings suggest that the effects of fluoride on 8-OHdG are dependent on concentration and time of exposure, and vary by tissue.

Summary: Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) has been suggested as a non-invasive method to evaluate airway inflammation. This study developed a new method to quantify 8-OHdG and 8-isoprostane in EBC using liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. However, both biomarkers were below the limit of detection, indicating the need for further research on the methodology of EBC collection for quantification of oxidative stress biomarkers.

Summary: A healthy body maintains a balance between the production of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and antioxidant defense mechanisms. Oxidative stress disrupts this balance, causing damage to biological molecules. LC-MS/MS methods are increasingly used to analyze oxidative stress biomarkers in biofluids.

Summary: The study demonstrated that Arabic gum has a protective effect against oxidative stress and genotoxicity induced by a radiographic contrast medium. The active metabolites in Arabic gum were identified as key contributors to this protective role.

Summary: The study found that exposure to Acetaminophen (AAP) was common in young children in central and south China, with AAP concentrations positively correlated with oxidative stress biomarkers 8-hydroxy-guanosine (8-OHG) and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG). This suggests a potential association between AAP exposure and DNA and RNA damage.

Summary: The necessity of pre-heating frozen urine samples for the accurate determination of 8-oxoG and 8-oxodG is currently unclear. This study suggests that pre-heating the samples may not always be necessary for the accurate measurement of these markers, depending on the pre-treatment and determination methods.

Summary: This study conducted a national survey on the concentrations of lead, arsenic, and copper in drinking water in US homes. Using an exposure-based composite sampling approach, it found that some samples exceeded the safe thresholds for metal concentrations, and private well samples were more likely to exceed the thresholds.

Summary: Wildland fires are a significant source of PM2.5 emissions in the US, including carbonaceous material and trace metals. Lead, a common pollutant, is emitted into the atmosphere through fires. This study measured lead concentrations in different types of biomass and calculated emission factors, providing data to improve our understanding of lead emissions.
