Oxidative stress marker 8-hydroxyguanosine is more highly expressed in prostate cancer than in benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Molecular and Clinical Oncology 2018 September
Oxidative stress is a primary cause of vascular endothelial damage. In the prostate, ischemia increases the levels of reactive oxygen species, growth factors and cytokines, and induces the development of angiogenesis, which results in cancer progression. The expression levels of an oxidative stress marker, 8-hydroxyguanosine (8-OHdG), were compared between prostate cancer and non-neoplastic prostate tissues. A prostate tissue microarray composed of 10 cases of prostatic adenocarcinoma and 70 cases of benign prostatic hyperplasia was immunohistochemically stained for 8-OHdG. All cases expressed 8-OHdG. The levels of 8-OHdG expression in prostatic cancer (30.0% moderate and 70.0% strong) were significantly higher than those in benign prostatic hyperplasia (71.4% moderate and 28.6% strong; (p<0.01). Notably, 8-OHdG is expressed more highly in prostate cancer tissues in comparison to benign prostate tissues.
