Research Abstract	本研究は、環境因子、特に環境化学物質や食品成分、食品添加物とその代謝物および紫外線(特にUVA)が生体内物質(微量金属や還元物質、光増感物質)との共存下において生成される各種活性酸素種による塩基配列特異的DNA損傷を培養細胞や単離したがん関連遺伝子断片を用いて検討した。本年度は、調理過程で生じる発がん物質ヘテロサイクリックアミン(PhIP)が、銅イオンの存在下で活性酸素を生成しDNAを損傷することを明らかにし、今までDNA付加対の形成で説明されてきた多環芳香族化合物の発がん性に酸化的DNA損傷も重要な役割を果たしうる可能性を示した。さらに、たばこの煙に含まれている2-ナフチルアミン、ディーゼルの排気ガスに含まれる大気汚染物質ニトロフルオレンおよび産業化学物質のカテコールやトリニトロトルエン等の発がん物質またはその代謝物が金属イオンの存在下で活性酸素を生成し塩基配列特異的にDNAを損傷することを解明した。以上の結果から、これらの環境化学物質の発がん性には活性酸素が重要な役割を果たしていることを明らかにした。生薬に含まれているキサントン、内因性の光増感物質でもある葉酸が、紫外線(UVA)照射によってDNA中の特定の塩基配列を著しく酸化的に損傷する機構を解明した。発がんや老化の予防を有効に進めるため化学予防物質の安全性についてDNA損傷性を指標に検討した。最近注目されている抗酸化剤のクルクミンは、還元酵素により還元されたときは有効ながん化学予防物質になるが、薬物代謝酵素CYP2D6で脱メチル化されたときはDNA損傷性が認められる。この結果からクルクミンをがん化学予防物質として用いるには、さらなる安全性の検討が必要である。我々が開発したDNA損傷性を指標とした化学予防物質の安全性評価法は発がんや老化の予防を有効に進めるため非常に有用である。
