Hydroxyl radical-mediated modifications of nucleobases are among the main deleterious processes induced in DNA by ionizing radiation. Determination of the underlying mechanisms in both isolated and cellular DNA requires the development of accurate assays for the detection of modified bases. High-performance liquid chromatography associated with electrochemical detection (HPLC-EC) and gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS) are the two main methods used for this purpose. In the present work, HPLC-EC was applied to the measurement of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGuo) following enzymatic digestion of DNA. Evidence was provided for the quantitative aspect of the latter step. Moreover, a GC-MS assay was designed for the detection of 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyGua). It was first shown that the widely used hot formic acid hydrolysis of DNA induced a complete decomposition of the lesion. A similar observation was also made for 4,6-diamino-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyAde). A milder DNA hydrolyzing agent, HF in pyridine, was substituted to HCOOH for the quantitative release of FapyGua from DNA. The radiation-induced formation of 8-oxodGuo and FapyGua in aqueous solution of DNA was compared. Insights in the mechanistic aspects were inferred from the results of gamma-irradiation studies carried out under different gas saturating conditions. It was clearly shown that the formation of both lesions is mediated by HO.. In addition, the presence of oxygen favors the formation of 8-oxodGuo at the expense of FapyGua.

D003849 Deoxyguanosine A nucleoside consisting of the base guanine and the sugar deoxyribose.
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004249 DNA Damage Injuries to DNA that introduce deviations from its normal, intact structure and which may, if left unrepaired, result in a MUTATION or a block of DNA REPLICATION. These deviations may be caused by physical or chemical agents and occur by natural or unnatural, introduced circumstances. They include the introduction of illegitimate bases during replication or by deamination or other modification of bases; the loss of a base from the DNA backbone leaving an abasic site; single-strand breaks; double strand breaks; and intrastrand (PYRIMIDINE DIMERS) or interstrand crosslinking. Damage can often be repaired (DNA REPAIR). If the damage is extensive, it can induce APOPTOSIS. DNA Injury,DNA Lesion,DNA Lesions,Genotoxic Stress,Stress, Genotoxic,Injury, DNA,DNA Injuries

D005720 Gamma Rays Penetrating, high-energy electromagnetic radiation emitted from atomic nuclei during NUCLEAR DECAY. The range of wavelengths of emitted radiation is between 0.1 - 100 pm which overlaps the shorter, more energetic hard X-RAYS wavelengths. The distinction between gamma rays and X-rays is based on their radiation source.
