8-Oxo-7,8-Dihydro-2′-Deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) and 8-Hydroxy-2′-Deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) as a Potential Biomarker for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) Development

8-Oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine Forms a Relatively Unstable Tetrameric Structure Compared with 2'-Deoxyguanosine

The hydrogen-bonded guanine tetrad, or G-quartet has been implicated in a variety of biological roles, including the function of chromosome telomeres. Here effect of the hydroxylation of guanosine at the 8 position on the G-quartet formation was examined. Electrospray inonization mass (ESI-MS) spectra of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) and 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) were measured in o...

Peroxynitrite reaction products of 3',5'-di-O-acetyl-8-oxo-7, 8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine.

Of the DNA bases, peroxynitrite (ONOO-) is most reactive toward 2'-deoxyguanosine (dGuo), but even more reactive with 8-oxo-7, 8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGuo), requiring a 1,000-fold excess of dGuo to provide 50% protection against the reaction with 8-oxodGuo. Therefore, it seems reasonable that 8-oxodGuo is a potentially important target in DNA and that the structures of the reaction p...

Suppression of mutagenesis by 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate (7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate) by human MTH1, MTH2, and NUDT5.

To assess the functions of the three human MutT-type enzymes, MTH1, MTH2, and NUDT5, mutation induction by an oxidized form of dGTP, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate (8-OH-dGTP; 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate), was examined using human 293T cells treated with their specific siRNAs. Shuttle plasmid DNA containing the supF gene was first transfected into the cells,...

Urinary Sulfate, Asymmetric Dimethylarginine, and 8-Hydroxy-2'-Deoxyguanosine:

Compounds found in the urine represent the end products of metabolism and are the expression of the efficiencies or inefficiencies of this process. Nutritional status has a direct effect on this metabolic efficiency. Careful assessment of certain urinary compounds can yield valuable information on the nutrient needs of the individual. Urinary sulfate, asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA), and 8-h...
