It remains unclear whether daily physical activity is associated with DNA damage. This cross-sectional study examined the association between leisure-time physical activity and urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG), a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage, or urinary 7-methylguanine (m7Gua), a biomarker of methylating DNA damage.
Participants included 501 workers (294 men and 207 women), aged 20-65 years, from municipal offices in Japan. Urinary 8-OH-dG and m7Gua were measured using column-switching HPLC. Physical activity was evaluated using a self-reported questionnaire. The associations between leisure-time physical activity and urinary DNA damage markers were assessed by multiple linear regression analysis, with stratification by occupational physical activity.
After adjusting for covariates, leisure-time physical activity showed a suggestive inverse correlation with urinary 8-OH-dG levels (P for trend = 0.06), and a significant inverse association with urinary m7Gua levels (P for trend = 0.03). In analysis stratified by occupation, inverse correlations were observed in sedentary workers (walking < 30 min/day at work: P for trend = 0.06 and = 0.03 for urinary 8-OH-dG and m7Gua, respectively), but not in physically active workers (walking ≥ 30 min/day at work). In analysis for each intensity of leisure-time physical activity, light-intensity exercise was associated with lower levels of urinary 8-OH-dG (P for trend = 0.03), whereas moderate-to-high-intensity exercise was associated with lower levels of urinary m7Gua (P for trend = 0.02).
Our results suggest that high levels of leisure-time physical activity are associated with decreased levels of DNA damage in individuals with low physical activity at work.
目前尚不清楚日常体力活动是否与 DNA 损伤有关。本横断面研究调查了休闲时间体力活动与尿 8-羟基脱氧鸟苷(8-OH-dG)——一种氧化 DNA 损伤的生物标志物,或尿 7-甲基鸟嘌呤(m7Gua)——一种甲基化 DNA 损伤的生物标志物之间的关系。
参与者包括来自日本市政办公室的 501 名工人(294 名男性和 207 名女性),年龄在 20-65 岁之间。使用柱切换 HPLC 测量尿 8-OH-dG 和 m7Gua。使用自我报告问卷评估体力活动。采用多元线性回归分析,按职业体力活动分层,评估休闲时间体力活动与尿 DNA 损伤标志物之间的关系。
调整协变量后,休闲时间体力活动与尿 8-OH-dG 水平呈明显负相关(趋势 P = 0.06),与尿 m7Gua 水平呈显著负相关(趋势 P = 0.03)。按职业分层分析,在久坐不动的工人中观察到负相关(工作时步行<30 分钟/天:尿 8-OH-dG 和 m7Gua 的趋势 P 值分别为 0.06 和 0.03),但在体力活动较多的工人中没有观察到负相关(工作时步行≥30 分钟/天)。在对每种强度的休闲时间体力活动进行分析时,轻度运动与较低水平的尿 8-OH-dG 相关(趋势 P = 0.03),而中高强度运动与较低水平的尿 m7Gua 相关(趋势 P = 0.02)。
我们的研究结果表明,高水平的休闲时间体力活动与工作时体力活动水平较低的个体的 DNA 损伤水平降低有关。
