title: Genotoxicity of ribo- and deoxyribonucleosides of 8-hydroxyguanine, 5-hydroxycytosine, and 2-hydroxyadenine: induction of SCE in human lymphocytes and mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA 100.
abstract: The induction of SCE by ribo- and deoxyribonucleosides of 8-hydroxyguanine, 5-hydroxycytosine, and 2-hydroxyadenine was tested using human peripheral blood lymphocytes. All of these compounds caused an increase in SCE frequency. The potency of SCE induction was as follows: 5-OH-C, 5-OH-dC > 8.OH-G > 8-OH-dG > 2-OH-A, 2-OH-dA. These results suggest that the oxidized nucleosides are incorporated into DNA with different efficiencies (or are repaired with different efficiencies) and exhibit genotoxicity in human blood cells. Ribo- and deoxyribo-derivatives of 5-OH-Cyt and 2-OH-Ade also showed mutagenic activity in Salmonella typhimurium TA 100.
