DNA damage and repair activity are often assessed in blood samples from humans in different types of molecular epidemiology studies. However, it is not always feasible to analyse the samples on the day of collection without any type of storage. For instance, certain studies use repeated sampling of cells from the same subject or samples from different subjects collected at different time-points, and it is desirable to analyse all these samples in the same comet assay experiment. In addition, flawless comet assay analyses on frozen samples open up the possibility of using this technique on biobank material. In this article we discuss the use of cryopreserved peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), buffy coat (BC) and whole blood (WB) for analysis of DNA damage and repair using the comet assay. The published literature and the authors’ experiences indicate that various types of blood samples can be cryopreserved with only a minor effect on the basal level of DNA damage. There is evidence to suggest that WB and PBMCs can be cryopreserved for several years without much effect on the level of DNA damage. However, care should be taken when cryopreserving WB and BCs. It is possible to use either fresh or frozen samples of blood cells, but results from fresh and frozen cells should not be used in the same dataset. The article outlines detailed protocols for the cryopreservation of PBMCs, BCs and WB samples.

在分子流行病学研究中使用彗星测定法收集和储存人类白细胞以分析 DNA 损伤和修复活性

在不同类型的分子流行病学研究中,经常在来自人类的血液样本中评估 DNA 损伤和修复活性。然而,在没有任何类型的存储的情况下在收集当天分析样本并不总是可行的。例如,某些研究使用来自同一受试者的细胞或在不同时间点收集的来自不同受试者的样品的重复取样,并且希望在同一个彗星测定实验中分析所有这些样品。此外,对冷冻样品进行完美的彗星分析分析开辟了将这种技术用于生物库材料的可能性。在本文中,我们讨论了使用冷冻保存的外周血单核细胞 (PBMC)、血沉棕黄层 (BC) 和全血 (WB) 来分析 DNA 损伤和修复使用彗星试验。已发表的文献和作者的经验表明,可以冷冻保存各种类型的血液样本,而对基础 DNA 损伤水平的影响很小。有证据表明,WB 和 PBMC 可以冷冻保存数年,而对 DNA 损伤水平没有太大影响。但是,在冷冻 WB 和 BC 时应小心。可以使用新鲜或冷冻的血细胞样本,但不应在同一数据集中使用新鲜和冷冻细胞的结果。本文概述了 PBMC、BC 和 WB 样品冷冻保存的详细协议。有证据表明,WB 和 PBMC 可以冷冻保存数年,而对 DNA 损伤水平没有太大影响。但是,在冷冻 WB 和 BC 时应小心。可以使用新鲜或冷冻的血细胞样本,但不应在同一数据集中使用新鲜和冷冻细胞的结果。本文概述了 PBMC、BC 和 WB 样品冷冻保存的详细协议。有证据表明,WB 和 PBMC 可以冷冻保存数年,而对 DNA 损伤水平没有太大影响。但是,在冷冻 WB 和 BC 时应小心。可以使用新鲜或冷冻的血细胞样本,但不应在同一数据集中使用新鲜和冷冻细胞的结果。本文概述了 PBMC、BC 和 WB 样品冷冻保存的详细协议。
