OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of occupational exposure to anesthetic gases on peripheral mononuclear leukocyte DNA damage and oxidative status in operating room personnel. METHODS The population of study includes 30 operating room personnel (Group I) and 30 non-operating room personnel for control groups (Group II). DNA damage was assessed by alkaline comet assay in peripheral lymphocyte. Plasma levels of total antioxidant status (TAS), total oxidative status (TOS) were determined by using a novel automated measurement method and oxidative stress index (OSI) was calculated (OSI was calculated as: OSI=(TOS/TAS)x100). RESULTS Mononuclear leukocyte DNA damage, plasma TOS and OSI were significantly higher in Group I than Group II [p<0.01, p<0.05, p<0.05 respectively]. There was also significantly decrease in plasma TAS in Group I than Group II [p<0.05]. There were positive significant correlations between DNA damage and TOS and OSI in Group I [r=0.84, p<0.001, r=0.89, p<0.001 respectively]. CONCLUSIONS Our findings demonstrate that, mononuclear leukocyte DNA damage was significantly higher in operating room personnel. The increase of DNA damage might depend on oxidative effects of anesthetics.

D007963 Leukocytes, Mononuclear Mature LYMPHOCYTES and MONOCYTES transported by the blood to the body's extravascular space. They are morphologically distinguishable from mature granulocytic leukocytes by their large, non-lobed nuclei and lack of coarse, heavily stained cytoplasmic granules.

D004249 DNA Damage Injuries to DNA that introduce deviations from its normal, intact structure and which may, if left unrepaired, result in a MUTATION or a block of DNA REPLICATION. These deviations may be caused by physical or chemical agents and occur by natural or unnatural, introduced circumstances. They include the introduction of illegitimate bases during replication or by deamination or other modification of bases; the loss of a base from the DNA backbone leaving an abasic site; single-strand breaks; double strand breaks; and intrastrand (PYRIMIDINE DIMERS) or interstrand crosslinking. Damage can often be repaired (DNA REPAIR). If the damage is extensive, it can induce APOPTOSIS. DNA Injury,DNA Lesion,DNA Lesions,Genotoxic Stress,Stress, Genotoxic,Injury, DNA,DNA Injuries

D000777 Anesthetics Agents capable of inducing a total or partial loss of sensation, especially tactile sensation and pain. They may act to induce general ANESTHESIA, in which an unconscious state is achieved, or may act locally to induce numbness or lack of sensation at a targeted site.

D016022 Case-Control Studies Comparisons that start with the identification of persons with the disease or outcome of interest and a control (comparison, referent) group without the disease or outcome of interest. The relationship of an attribute is examined by comparing both groups with regard to the frequency or levels of outcome over time.
