Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The analysis method for salivary 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OHGua) as an oxidative stress biomarker was established. In the results of epidemiological studies, the salivary 8-OHGua levels were significantly elevated in older persons, as well as those who smoke, have hypertension, or excess visceral fat. By contrast, statistically significant lower levels of 8-OHGua were observed in persons who moderately exercised or recently drank green tea or coffee. The oxidative stress is attracting attention as the cause of a variety of diseases such as cancer. The salivary 8-OHGua is expected to be used for the prevention of lifestyle-related diseases as a promising oxidative stress biomarker. In addition, the usefulness of urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine as a typical oxidative stress biomarker was reconfirmed in epidemiological study.
