title: [Formation of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine from 2'-deoxyguanosine and its decomposition by active oxygen].
abstract: 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) was formed from dG and isolated DNA by photosensitization with rose bengal (RB) and methylene blue (MB). 8-OHdG formed from dG was decomposed by the photosensitization with these dyes. Singlet oxygen was concerned with the formation and decomposition of 8-OHdG by photosensitization. Fe++ oxidized dG to 8-OHdG, which was decomposed by the addition of H2O2. 8-OHdG was formed and decomposed by the treatment of dG with Fe++, EDTA and ascorbic acid. Hydroxy radical (.OH) participated in the formation and decomposition of 8-OHdG by Fe++.
