Heme iron from meat and risk of colorectal cancer: a meta-analysis and a review of the mechanisms involved [PDF]
Red meat and processed meat intake is associated with a risk of colorectal cancer, a major cause of death in affluent countries. Epidemiological and experimental evidence supports the hypothesis that heme iron present in meat promotes colorectal cancer ...

Synthesis of C8-alkylamino substituted 2'-deoxyguanosine [PDF]
Synthesis of C8-alkynyl- and alkylamino substituted 2'-deoxyguanosine is described. Protected alkynylamines are coupled with 8-bromo-2'-deoxyguanosine by a Pd(0)-mediate Sonogashira coupling protocol. Hydrogenation of alkynyl derivatives over 10% Pd/C under atmospheric pressure gave 8-alkylamino guanosine derivatives in nearly quantitative yields.

Development of assays for biomarkers of oxidative damage to assess the efficacy of fruit-derived antioxidants : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biochemistry at Massey University [PDF]
The diet is a very important part of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Increased consumption of fruits and vegetables is one practice postulated to decrease the incidence of diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular disease and other disorders.

Chiral separation by enantioselective liquid–liquid extraction [PDF]
The literature on enantioselective liquid–liquid extraction (ELLE) spans more than half a century of research. Nonetheless, a comprehensive overview has not appeared during the past few decades.

Molecular biomarkers and toxic consequences of impact by organic pollution in aquatic organisms [PDF]
Organic contaminants are readily bioaccumulated by aquatic organisms. Exposure to and toxic effects of contaminants can be measured in terms of the biochemical responses of the organisms (i.e. molecular biomarkers).

The protective effect of cortexin was investigated with the use of acoustic stress hemorrhagic stroke model. A significant decrease of 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine to 2'-deoxyguanosine ratio in the DNA molecule was shown using brain slices of cortexin treated

Characterization of the Deoxyguanosine–Lysine Cross-Link of Methylglyoxal [PDF]
Methylglyoxal is a mutagenic bis-electrophile that is produced endogenously from carbohydrate precursors. Methylglyoxal has been reported to induce DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs) in vitro and in cultured cells. Previous work suggests that these cross-links are formed between guanine and either lysine or cysteine side chains.
