Production of 8-oxo-dG from dG by H2O2 or LOOH with or without Fe2+

Substrate* Fe2+ (µmol/L) Oxidant (50 µmol/L)
Vehicle H2O2 LOOH
Produced number of 8-oxo-dG per 105 dG**
dG (250 µmol/L) 0 0.67 ± 0.30a 1.91 ± 0.39a 3.35 ± 0.65b
0.5 1.27 ± 0.06a 1.89 ± 0.20a 3.59 ± 0.47b
10 5.04 ± 0.29c 11.55 ± 0.82d 8.73 ± 1.86e

*dG was incubated with oxidants as shown in Materials and Methods. The commercial dG originally contained 8-oxo-dG at levels of 0.58 ± 0.08 number per 105 dG, and the present results include the original amounts of 8-oxo-dG. **Values are mean ± SD (n = 6) and different superscript letters indicate statistically significant differences (p<0.05).
