Mass spectrometric analysis of 2′-deoxyribonucleoside and 2′-deoxyribonucleotide adducts with aldehydes derived from lipid peroxidation

An important emerging issue in chemical carcinogenesis is the role that products of endogenous metabolism play in formation of covalently modified DNA. One example is the formation of alpha, beta-unsaturated aldehydes as a result of endogenous and drug-stimulated lipid peroxidation. Malondialdehyde (MDA), crotonaldehyde (CR), 2-hexenal (HX), and 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) react covalently with 2'-deoxyguanosine (dG) and 2'-deoxyadenosine (dA)...
