    Abstract: Environmental exposure to arsenic may be involved in the disturbance of DNA hypomethylation. The aim of this study is the first to explore the effect of interactions of urinary total arsenic levels, arsenic methylation capacity, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), plasma folate, and global 5-methyl-2'-deoxycytidine (5-MedC) levels on the risk of urothelial carcinoma (UC). A hospital-based case-control study was constructed. The research involved the histological recruitment and pathological verification of 178 UC patients and 356 age-/sex-matched controls without prior history of cancer. Arsenic species were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-hydride generation and atomic absorption. 5-MedC levels were detected by HPLC and triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry (MS). 8-OHdG was processed by an online solid-phase extraction LC-MS/MS. Plasma folate levels were measured using the chemiluminescent technology. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated by multiple logistic regression analysis. Results indicate that the high levels of total urinary arsenic, inorganic arsenic percentage, and 8-OHdG and the low levels of DMA % and plasma folate were independent factors of UC. In addition, global 5-MedC levels in the first quartile versus fifth quartile significantly increased the twofold OR of UC after potential factors were adjusted (95% CI:1.10-4.03). The interaction of 5-MedC level and high total arsenic level, insufficient arsenic capacity, high 8-OHdG, and low folate levels was insignificant. Results of stepwise logistic regression analysis indicate that high total urinary arsenic levels (Q3 versus Q1), low plasma folate level, and low global 5-MedC (Q4 versus Q5) significantly increased the ORs of UC. The above results suggest that high total arsenic, low plasma folate, and 5-MedC levels affect the ORs of UC independently.
