DNA adducts: Formation, biological effects, and new biospecimens for mass spectrometric measurements in humans.

open access: yesMass spectrometry reviews (Print), 2018
Hazardous chemicals in the environment and diet or their electrophilic metabolites can form adducts with genomic DNA, which can lead to mutations and the initiation of cancer.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and PAH-related DNA adducts

open access: yesJournal of Applied Genetics, 2016
Investigations on the impact of chemicals on the environment and human health have led to the development of an exposome concept. The exposome refers to the totality of exposures received by a person during life, including exposures to life-style factors,

Targeted High Resolution LC/MS3 Adductomics Method for the Characterization of Endogenous DNA Damage

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2019
DNA can be damaged through covalent modifications of the nucleobases by endogenous processes. These modifications, commonly referred to as DNA adducts, can persist and may lead to mutations, and ultimately to the initiation of cancer.

MRN, CtIP, and BRCA1 mediate repair of topoisomerase II–DNA adducts

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2016
Analyses in Xenopus egg extracts show that the MRN complex, CtIP, BRCA1, and the interaction between CtIP and BRCA1 are required for the removal of Top2–DNA adducts, forsubsequent resection of Top2-adducted double-strand break ends, and for cellular ...

Xeroderma Pigmentosum Group A Suppresses Mutagenesis Caused by Clustered Oxidative DNA Adducts in the Human Genome. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Clustered DNA damage is defined as multiple sites of DNA damage within one or two helical turns of the duplex DNA. This complex damage is often formed by exposure of the genome to ionizing radiation and is difficult to repair. The mutagenic potential and

Depurinating estrogen-DNA adducts, generators of cancer initiation: their minimization leads to cancer prevention

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, 2016
Estrogens can initiate cancer by reacting with DNA. Specific metabolites of endogenous estrogens, the catechol estrogen-3,4-quinones, react with DNA to form depurinating estrogen-DNA adducts.

Ochratoxin A: In Utero Exposure in Mice Induces Adducts in Testicular DNA

open access: yesToxins, 2010
Ochratoxin A (OTA) is a nephrotoxin and carcinogen that is associated with Balkan endemic nephropathy and urinary tract tumors. OTA crosses the placenta and causes adducts in the liver and kidney DNA of newborns.

Urinary DNA adductomics – A novel approach for exposomics

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2018
The exposome is a concept that encompasses the totality of internal and external environmental exposures, from conception onwards. Evaluation of the exposome, across the lifecourse represents a significant challenge, e.g., methods/technology may simply ...

Dissociation Dynamics of XPC-RAD23B from Damaged DNA Is a Determining Factor of NER Efficiency. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
XPC-RAD23B (XPC) plays a critical role in human nucleotide excision repair (hNER) as this complex recognizes DNA adducts to initiate NER. To determine the mutagenic potential of structurally different bulky DNA damages, various studies have been ...

The Response of the Replication Apparatus to Leading Template Strand Blocks

open access: yesCells, 2023
Duplication of the genome requires the replication apparatus to overcome a variety of impediments, including covalent DNA adducts, the most challenging of which is on the leading template strand.
