Deoxyguanosine is a TLR7 agonist [PDF]
AbstractToll‐like receptor 7 (TLR7) is an innate immune sensor for single‐strand RNA (ssRNA). Recent structural analysis revealed that TLR7 has an additional binding site for nucleosides such as guanosine, and is activated when both guanosine and ssRNA bind.

Photodynamic Reaction of Riboflavin and Deoxyguanosine [PDF]
Previous studies have demonstrated that phototherapy depresses serum riboflavin in jaundiced infants. The potential long-term hazards of this in vivo reaction may be significant in view of the in vitro reaction of riboflavin which modifies intracellular DNA in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.

Imidazopurinones are markers of physiological genomic damage linked to DNA instability and glyoxalase 1-associated tumour multidrug resistance [PDF]
Glyoxal and methylglyoxal are reactive dicarbonyl metabolites formed and metabolized in physiological systems. Increased exposure to these dicarbonyls is linked to mutagenesis and cytotoxicity and enhanced dicarbonyl metabolism by overexpression of ...

Photochemical pathways of 8-oxo-2′-deoxyguanosine under photodegradation
The common product of an oxidatively damaged DNA, 8-oxo-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dG), is known for photorepairing cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers. This study is to uncover the dynamics of 8-oxo-dG under photodegradation, which are poorly understood.

Mitosene-DNA adducts. Characterization of two major DNA monoadducts formed by 1,10-bis(acetoxy)-7-methoxymitosene upon reductive activation [PDF]
Reductive activation of racemic 1,10-bis(acetoxy)-7-methoxymitosene WV15 in the presence of DNA, followed by enzymatic digestion and HPLC analysis, revealed the formation of various DNA adducts.

Pyrimido[1,2-a]-purin-10(3H)-one, M(1)G, is less prone to artifact than base oxidation [PDF]
Pyrimido[1,2-a]-purin-10(3H)-one (M(1)G) is a secondary DNA damage product arising from primary reactive oxygen species (ROS) damage to membrane lipids or deoxyribose.
