Oxidative DNA damage plays crucial roles in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases including cancer. 8-hydroxy-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) is the most representative product of oxidative modifications of DNA, and urinary 8-OHdG is potentially the best non-invasive biomarker of oxidative damage to DNA. Herein, we developed a sensitive, specific and accurate method for quantification of 8-OHdG in human urine. The urine samples were pretreated using off-line solid-phase extraction (SPE), followed by ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) analysis. By the use of acetic acid as an additive to the mobile phase, we improved the UPLC-MS/MS detection of 8-OHdG by 2.7−5.3 times. Using the developed strategy, we measured the contents of 8-OHdG in urine samples from 142 healthy volunteers and 84 patients with colorectal cancer (CRC). We observed increased levels of urinary 8-OHdG in patients with CRC and patients with tumor metastasis, compared to healthy controls and patients without tumor metastasis, respectively. Additionally, logistic regression analysis and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were performed. Our findings implicate that oxidative stress plays important roles in the development of CRC and the marked increase of urinary 8-OHdG may serve as a potential liquid biomarker for the risk estimation, early warning and detection of CRC.
