In this study, we aimed to explain the role of oxidative stress in women with overactive bladder (OAB) by investigating the levels of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a marker of oxidative DNA damage, and malondialdehyde (MDA), an indicator of lipid peroxidation.
A total of 90 women were included in the study: 45 female patients diagnosed with OAB at Hopa State Hospital Urology Polyclinic and 45 healthy women without any metabolic or neurologic disease. Levels of MDA and 8-OHdG were measured in 24-hour urine samples for all subjects.
Urinary levels of MDA and 8-OHdG were significantly higher in the OAB group than in the control group (p<0.001). A significant positive correlation (p<0.001) was found between the measurements of 8-OHdG and MDA.
Oxidative stress may be important in the pathophysiology of OAB, because levels of 8-OHdG and MDA are increased. Increased levels of 8-OHdG may be due to damaged nuclear and mitochondrial DNA as a result of oxidative attacks caused by free radicals. Nevertheless, further randomized and prospective studies with larger patient populations are needed.
本研究旨在通过检测氧化应激标志物 8-羟基-2'-脱氧鸟苷(8-OHdG)和脂质过氧化标志物丙二醛(MDA)的水平,探讨氧化应激在女性膀胱过度活动症(OAB)中的作用。
共纳入 90 名女性患者:45 名在 Hopa 州立医院泌尿科综合诊所被诊断为 OAB 的女性患者和 45 名无任何代谢或神经疾病的健康女性。对所有受试者的 24 小时尿液样本进行 MDA 和 8-OHdG 水平的检测。
OAB 组的尿 MDA 和 8-OHdG 水平明显高于对照组(p<0.001)。8-OHdG 和 MDA 的检测结果之间存在显著的正相关(p<0.001)。
氧化应激可能在 OAB 的病理生理学中起重要作用,因为 8-OHdG 和 MDA 的水平升高。8-OHdG 水平升高可能是由于自由基引起的氧化攻击导致核和线粒体 DNA 受损所致。然而,仍需要进行更大样本量的随机和前瞻性研究。
