Salivary 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine levels in patients with oral cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

DNA is an important target for oxidative attack and its modification may increase the risk of mutagenesis. The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare salivary levels of the oxidative stress biomarker 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) in patients with oral cancer (OC) compared to the control group by a comprehensive search of the available literature.

Methods

The present systematic review and meta-analysis followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines and was registered in Open Science Framework (OSF): https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/X3YMR. Four electronic databases were used to identify studies for this systematic review: PubMed, Scopus, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science from January 15, 2005, to April 15, 2021. The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) tool was used to assess article quality.

Results

Of the 166 articles identified, 130 articles were excluded on the basis of title and abstract screening (duplicates, reviews, etc.). Thirty-six articles were evaluated at full text and 7 articles met the inclusion criteria. Of these, only 5 studies had compatible data for quantitative analysis. An increase in salivary 8-OHdG levels was found in patients with OC compared to healthy subjects, but without statistical significance. 8-OHdG: SMD = 2,72 (95%CI= -0.25-5.70); *p = 0.07.

Conclusions

This systematic review and meta-analysis suggests a clear trend of increased 8-OHdG levels in saliva of OC patients compared to the control group. However, further studies are required to clarify and understand the altered levels of this oxidative stress marker.

Project description:PurposeTo investigate systemic oxidative stress-induced DNA damage in patients with pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG), we estimated plasma levels of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) as a marker for oxidative DNA damage in comparison to controls. In addition, we also examined a combined effect of lysyl oxidase-like 1 (LOXL1) polymorphism status and 8-OHdG levels on PXG risk.Materials and methodsA retrospective case-control study was performed to estimate plasma levels of 8-OHdG in 41 PXG patients and 45 nonglaucomatous controls using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The assay was performed in duplicate on an automated ELISA analyzer. Two common polymorphisms (rs1048661 and rs3835942) in LOXL1 gene were genotyped by Sanger sequencing.ResultsThe mean and median levels of 8-OHdG were significantly increased in the PXG cases (p=0.032) and male subjects (p=0.041). Subjects with levels greater than the third quartile (75% percentile) exhibited a significant increased risk of PXG (odds ratio = 4.06, 95% confidence interval (CI = 1.11-14.80, p=0.029)). Within- and between-group comparisons showed that the mean levels were higher in individuals carrying the LOXL1 risk variant (G/G), but not statistically significant. In logistic regression analysis, both 8-OHdG (p=0.044) and rs3835942 (p=0.012) showed a statistically significant effect on the PXG outcome. However, the effect was lost when age, sex, and rs1048661 were included. A significant positive correlation was observed between 8-OHdG levels and intraocular pressure (R=0.284, p=0.008) and cup/disc ratio (R=0.233, p=0.031). Furthermore, in receiver operating characteristic analysis, the area under the curve was statistically significant (p=0.032) with a value of 0.635 (95% CI = 0.518-0.751).ConclusionThe study demonstrates an association of increased plasma levels of 8-OHdG in patients with PXG, supporting the role of oxidative stress, and increased oxidative DNA damage in PXG development.

Project description:BackgroundOral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory condition that can impact patients' quality of life. While its exact etiology remains unclear, it is associated with an increased risk of malignant transformation. Currently, the diagnosis of OLP relies on clinical examination and histopathological analysis, which can be invasive. Therefore, there is an urgent need for non-invasive and accurate diagnostic biomarkers. This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to investigate the potential of salivary microRNAs as promising candidates for OLP diagnosis. This meta-analysis seeks to identify specific microRNAs that are differentially expressed and could serve as reliable biomarkers for OLP diagnosis.MethodsOur strategy involved searching for pertinent keywords in multiple academic databases including Cochrane Library, Embase, LIVIVO, MEDLINE, Ovid, ProQuest, Scopus, Web of Science, Espacenet, and Google Scholar search engine. Upon identification, articles were screened and data extracted from the eligible studies. Split component synthesis method was utilized to assess specificity, sensitivity, likelihood and diagnostic odds ratios. The random-effects meta-analysis approach was used to combine study findings and develop pooled diagnostic performance metrics. Hierarchical summary receiver operating characteristic (ROC) plots were generated to determine area under the curve. Subgroup analyses concerning the type of saliva and control groups were also performed.ResultsAmong the fourteen studies included in our systematic review, five were eligible for meta-analysis. Salivary microRNAs showed the pooled sensitivity of 0.80 (95% Confidence Interval (95% CI): 0.68-0.88), specificity of 0.89 (95% CI: 0.82-0.94), diagnostic odds ratio of 28.45 (95% CI: 10.40-77.80), and area under the curve (AUC) of 0.93 for OLP diagnosis. Unstimulated saliva had higher sensitivity and specificity than oral swirl samples as the biomarker medium for OLP diagnosis. Meta-analysis uncovered that miR-27a, miR-137, miR-1290, miR-27b, miR-4484, miR-142, and miR-1246 had the highest diagnostic odds ratio for OLP.ConclusionsOur systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrate that salivary microRNAs can serve as valuable biomarkers for the diagnosis of OLP. The findings highlight the exceptional accuracy of salivary microRNAs in differentiating OLP patients from healthy controls and assessing the risk of malignant transformation.

Project description:BackgroundSalivary diagnostics and their utility as a nonaggressive approach for breast cancer diagnosis have been extensively studied in recent years. This meta-analysis assesses the diagnostic value of salivary biomarkers in differentiating between patients with breast cancer and controls.MethodsWe conducted a meta-analysis and systematic review of studies related to salivary diagnostics published in PubMed, EMBASE, Scopus, Ovid, Science Direct, Web of Science (WOS), and Google Scholar. The articles were chosen utilizing inclusion and exclusion criteria, as well as assessing their quality. Specificity and sensitivity, along with negative and positive likelihood ratios (NLR and PLR) and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), were calculated based on random- or fixed-effects model. Area under the curve (AUC) and summary receiver-operating characteristic (SROC) were plotted and evaluated, and Fagan's Nomogram was evaluated for clinical utility.ResultsOur systematic review and meta-analysis included 14 papers containing 121 study units with 8639 adult subjects (4149 breast cancer patients and 4490 controls without cancer). The pooled specificity and sensitivity were 0.727 (95% CI: 0.713-0.740) and 0.717 (95% CI: 0.703-0.730), respectively. The pooled NLR and PLR were 0.396 (95% CI: 0.364-0.432) and 2.597 (95% CI: 2.389-2.824), respectively. The pooled DOR was 7.837 (95% CI: 6.624-9.277), with the AUC equal to 0.801. The Fagan's nomogram showed post-test probabilities of 28% and 72% for negative and positive outcomes, respectively. We also conducted subgroup analyses to determine specificity, sensitivity, DOR, PLR, and NLR based on the mean age of patients (≤52 or >52 years old), saliva type (stimulated and unstimulated saliva), biomarker measurement method (mass spectrometry [MS] and non-MS measurement methods), sample size (≤55 or >55), biomarker type (proteomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics and proteomics, and reagent-free biophotonic), and nations.ConclusionSaliva, as a noninvasive biomarker, has the potential to accurately differentiate breast cancer patients from healthy controls.

Project description:BACKGROUND:High level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been detected in almost all cancers, which make it become one of the best-characterized phenotypes in cancers. Though ROS plays an important role in tumors, the degree of oxidative stress can be better evaluated by assessing stable metabolites of oxidative reactions because of its high instability. 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a product of oxidative damage to 2'-deoxyguanosine, is known as a useful marker for assessing oxidative DNA damage and has been a feature of carcinogenesis in several researches. But the exact prognostic value of 8-OHdG expression in patients with cancer is still unclear. METHODS:A comprehensive search was performed in PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE. Eligible studies were included based on defined exclusion and inclusion criteria to perform a meta-analysis. STATA 14.0 was used to estimate pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI), the heterogeneity among studies and publication bias to judge the prognostic value. RESULTS:A total of 2121 patients from 21 eligible studies were included in the meta-analysis. A significant association was found between elevated 8-OHdG expression and poor OS (overall survival) in cancer patients (pooled HR 1.921, 95% CI: 1.437-2.570); In the subgroup analysis, race of sample, cancer types, detection method of 8-OHdG, sample classification, detection location of 8-OHdG and paper quality (score more or less than 7) did not alter the association between 8-OHdG expression and cancer prognosis. Furthermore, 8-OHdG expression was an independent prognostic marker for overall survival in patients with cancer (pooled HR 2.110, 95% CI: 1.482-3.005) using Cox multivariate analyses. CONCLUSIONS:This meta-analysis found that highly expressed 8-OHdG in tumor tissues may be a predictor of prognosis in most solid tumors. However, especially in breast cancer, low 8-OHdG expression is associated with poor prognosis, which is partly because of the increased antioxidant mechanisms in breast cancer tissues. This study demonstrates for the first time that 8-OHdG expression is associated with the prognosis of cancer patients. In the future, whether the expression level of 8-OHdG can be used as a biomarker for the prognosis of all human cancers requires more research.
