The expression and activity of 8-oxoguanosine DNA-glycosylase (Ogg1), a key enzyme responsible forthe clearance of the oxidized DNA base 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (oxo8dG), was determined in the cerebellum (CB) and the caudate and the putamen (CP) of male Balb/c, ICR, and C57BL/J mice. There was no significant difference in the protein expression of Ogg1 in the CB or CP. The activity of Ogg1 was not significantly different in the CB; however, in the CP of ICR mice, the activity of Ogg1 was 34% and 31% lower than Balb/c and C57BL/J, respectively. In contrast, the levels of oxo8dG in the CB and CP of C57BL/J mice were nearly twice as high as the values in both regions of Balb/c and ICR mice. The activity of superoxide dismutases (SOD) appeared to account for the differences in the levels of oxo8dG in the C57BL/J strain. Total SOD in the C57BL/J strain was two- and fourfold higher in the CB and CP, respectively, versus the other strains. These results suggest that the enhanced vulnerability of the C57BL/J strain to neurotoxicants may not be due to a decreased capacity for DNA repair, but rather, the significantly higher activity of SODs, which may cause these pathways to become more readily saturated.
