Increased PARP Activity and DNA Damage in NSCLC Patients: The Influence of COPD

Abstract: (1) Background: Lung cancer (LC) is a major leading cause of death worldwide. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-1 and PARP-2 are key players in cancer. We aimed to assess PARP-1 and PARP-2 expression and activity and DNA damage in tumors and non-tumor lungs from patients with/without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). (2) Methods: Lung tumor and non-tumor specimens were obtained through video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in LC patients with/without underlying COPD (two groups of patients,… Show more

“…Results showed that patients with COPD and cancer had an increase in the DNA damage marker levels compared to those with cancer but without COPD. However, in contrast to the findings of our research, active smoking was not a criterion for inclusion of samples, allowing statistically significant differences between groups in relation to tobacco use [33].…”

“…Our results showed that patients with COPD and lung cancer did not have a significant increase in DNA damage than that in the patients with COPD. Although these results indicate that the previous state of COPD without the initial presence of cancer does not determine further damage to DNA to influence the development of cancer, Tang et al showed opposite results, inferring that the patients with lung cancer and COPD had increased levels of DNA damage markers than patients with lung cancer alone [ 33 ].…”

“…In patients with COPD, particularly in emphysema phenotype, LC development was five times greater than in smokers with no COPD [4,5]. Recently, our group and others have demonstrated the implications of relevant biological mechanisms in the increased LC predisposition seen in patients with COPD [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13].…”

“…Several biological mechanisms have been shown to participate in the greater risk for LC development in COPD patients [ 5 ]. For instance, increased oxidative stress [ 6 ], inflammation including a differential inflammatory profile [ 7 ], epigenetics abnormalities [ 8 ] and the pattern of expression of stroma markers [ 9 ] have all been demonstrated to be differentially expressed in tumours of patients with mild-to-moderate COPD. In addition, overall survival was also shown to be significantly altered on the basis of the inflammatory profile in lung tumours of patients with underlying COPD compared to LC patients without COPD [ 10 ].…”
