| dc.description.abstract | 6. Summary Despite the lack of direct evidence from large clinical trials for mutagenic and genotoxic effects of GTN therapy, the present study show s the induction of pre-mutagenic lesions, such as 8- oxo - G and O 6 - me - G by GTN t reatment as well as increased formation of DNA strand breaks. These results were obtained in an in vitro (EA.hy 926 – human endothelial cell line) and in vivo (Wistar rats and C57BL/6 mice) setting. However, GTN - induced DNA damage had no effect on the degr ee of nitrate tolerance but only on other pathological side effects such as oxidative stress, as confirmed by studies in MGMT knockout mice. Of clinical importance , this study establishes potent apoptotic properties of organic nitrates, which has been demo nstrated by the levels of the novel apoptotic marker and caspase - 3 substrate, fractin, as well as levels of cleaved caspase - 3 , the activated form of this pro - apoptotic enzyme . The p rotein analy tical data ha ve been confirmed by an independent assay for the apoptosis , Cell death detection assay (TUNEL) . First, these GTN - mediated apoptotic effects may account for the previously reported anti - cancer effects of GTN therapy (probably based on induction of apoptosis in tumor cells). Second, these GTN - mediated apop totic effects may account for the increased mortality rates observed in the group of organic nitrate - treated patients as reported by two independent meta - analysis (probably due to induction of apoptosis in highly beneficial endothelial progenitor cells as well as in cardiomyocytes during wound healing and cardiac remodeling) . Summary of the current investigations can be seen in Figure 18. | en_GB |
