Photoactivatable organometallic pyridyl ruthenium(II) arene complexes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The synthesis and characterization of a family of piano-stool RuII arene complexes of the type [(η6-arene)Ru(N,N′)(L)][PF6]2, where arene is p-cymene (p-cym), hexamethylbenzene (hmb), or indane (ind), N,N′ is 2,2′-bipyrimidine (bpm), 1,10-phenanthroline (

Photoactivation of trans diamine platinum complexes in aqueous solution and effect on reactivity towards nucleotides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We show that UVA irradiation (365 nm) of the Pt-IV complex trans,trans,trans-[(PtCl2)-Cl-IV(OH)(2)(dimethylamine) (isopropylamine)] (1), induces reduction to Pt-II photoproducts.

The role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cytochrome P-450 2E1 in the generation of carcinogenic etheno-DNA adducts

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2014
Exocyclic etheno-DNA adducts are mutagenic and carcinogenic and are formed by the reaction of lipidperoxidation (LPO) products such as 4-hydoxynonenal or malondialdehyde with DNA bases.

Quantitative analysis of malondialdehyde-guanine adducts in genomic DNA samples by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
RATIONALE: The lipid peroxidation product malondialdehyde forms M1 dG adducts with guanine bases in genomic DNA. The analysis of these adducts is important as a biomarker of lipid peroxidation, oxidative stress and inflammation which may be linked to ...

Comparing self‐reported race and genetic ancestry for identifying potential differentially methylated sites in endometrial cancer: insights from African ancestry proportions using machine learning models

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Integrating ancestry, differential methylation analysis, and machine learning, we identified robust epigenetic signature genes (ESGs) and Core‐ESGs in Black and White women with endometrial cancer. Core‐ESGs (namely APOBEC1 and PLEKHG5) methylation levels were significantly associated with survival, with tumors from high African ancestry (THA) showing ...

Interactions between exposure to environmental polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and DNA repair gene polymorphisms on bulky DNA adducts in human sperm. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Nucleotide excision repair (NER) and base excision repair (BER) are the primary mechanisms for repair of bulky adducts caused by chemical agents, such as PAHs.

DNA adducts, mutations and cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCarcinogenesis, 1993
Anyone having lectured on DNA adducts is likely to be familiar with the first question after the presentation: 'What is the relationship of DNA adducts and cancer?'. Although there are a number of reviews on the topic (1-5), my personal response, instead of going into lengthy circumstantial argumentation and hand-waving, has been a quotation from ...

Syntheses and characterizations of the in vivo replicative bypass and mutagenic properties of the minor-groove O2-alkylthymidine lesions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Endogenous metabolism, environmental exposure, and treatment with some chemotherapeutic agents can all give rise to DNA alkylation, which can occur on the phosphate backbone as well as the ring nitrogen or exocyclic nitrogen and oxygen atoms of ...

BMP antagonist CHRDL2 enhances the cancer stem‐cell phenotype and increases chemotherapy resistance in colorectal cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Overexpression of CHRDL2 in colon cancer cells makes them more stem‐like and resistant to chemo‐ and radiotherapy. CHRDL2‐high cells have upregulation of the WNT pathway, genes involved in the DNA damage response (DDR) pathway and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EMT). This leads to quicker repair of damaged DNA and more cell migration.

Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Tissues—An Untapped Biospecimen for Biomonitoring DNA Adducts by Mass Spectrometry

open access: yesToxics, 2018
The measurement of DNA adducts provides important information about human exposure to genotoxic chemicals and can be employed to elucidate mechanisms of DNA damage and repair.
