Abstract:
Objective To explore the association between dyslipidemia and the level of 8-OHdG/Cr in urine among a population exposed to chronic arsenic.Methods Four hundred and seven subjects were randomly selected in an arsenic-affected area in Inner Mongolia.After blood biochemical examination,all the subjects were divided into 4 groups based on the results of total cholesterol (TC),triglycerides (TG),high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).The groups consisted of hypercholesterolemia,HDL-C ratio anomaly,combined hypercholesterolemia and HDL-C ratio anomaly,as well as a normal lipid group.Urine samples were collected and 8-OHdG/Cr was measured using the ELISA method.A generalized linear mixed model was used to analyze the association between dyslipidemia and 8-OHdG/Cr.Results The levels of 8-OHdG/Cr as 55.73 (39.90-79.94) ng/mg,58.08 (44.94-69.91) ng/mg,65.28 (49.29-92.95) ng/mg and 51.43 (36.86-68.57)ng/mgin the HDL-C ratio anomaly,hypercholesterolemia,combined hypercholesterolemia and HDL-C ratio anomaly groups and the control group,respectively,which showed significant differences on the levels of 8-OHdG/Cr in the four groups (P=0.006).From the linear regression analysis results showed that the 8-OHdG/Cr level incombined hypercholesterolemia and HDL-C ratio anomaly group was higher (4.25 ± 0.55 ng/mg) than in the control group (3.96 ± 0.55 ng/mg) (P=0.018).After adjusting for important covariates,there was a linear trend between the levels of 8-OHdG/Cr and dyslipidemia (P=0.016).Conclusion Data from our study showed a linear relation between hypercholesterolemia,HDL-C ratio anomaly and the 8-OHdG/Cr level,suggesting that dyslipidemia was associated with oxidative DNA damage among those arsenic-affected people.
