DNA damage induced by peroxynitrite: subsequent biological effects.
    Nitric oxide : biology and chemistry, 1997, Volume: 1, Issue:5

    Nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide rapidly react to yield peroxynitrite. Peroxynitrite is a potent oxidant which reacts with proteins, lipids, and DNA. The present paper overviews the various DNA modifications induced by exposure to peroxynitrite or NO and superoxide concurrently, with special reference to the formation of 8-nitroguanine and 8-oxoguanine as well as the induction of DNA single strand breakage. In addition, we review the secondary processes that may follow the process of DNA damage, such as activation of the nuclear enzyme, poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase, apoptosis, and carcinogenesis.

Does 8-Nitroguanine Form 8-Oxoguanine? An Insight from Its Reaction with
    The journal of physical chemistry. B, 2018, 02-15, Volume: 122, Issue:6

    8-Nitroguanine (8-nitroG) formed due to nitration of guanine base of DNA plays an important role in mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. In the present contribution, state-of-the-art quantum chemical calculations using M06-2X density functional and domain-based local pair natural orbital-coupled cluster theory with single, double, and perturbative triple excitations (DLPNO-CCSD(T)) methods have been carried out to investigate the mechanism of reaction of

Effect of elite physical exercise by triathletes on seven catabolites of DNA oxidation.
    Free radical research, 2015, Volume: 49, Issue:8

    The oxidized nucleoside 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine has been widely studied as a marker of DNA oxidation; however, data on the occurrence of other metabolites in plasma that are related to DNA damage are scarce. We have applied an improved, sensitive, robust, and reliable method, involving solid phase extraction and ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC)-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), to the precise quantitation of seven metabolites in the plasma of 15 elite triathletes after a 2-week training program. All compounds were eluted in the first 1.6 min, with limits of detection and quantification ranging between 0.001 and 0.3 ng.mL(-1) and 0.009 and 0.6 ng.mL(-1), respectively. Four compounds were detected in plasma: guanosine-3'-5'-cyclic monophosphate, 8-hydroxyguanine, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine, and 8-nitroguanosine. After two weeks of training, 8-hydroxyguanine exhibited the highest increase (from 0.031 ± 0.008 nM to 0.036 ± 0.012 nM) (p < 0.05), which could be related to the enhanced activity of DNA-repairing enzymes that excise this oxidized base. Increased levels of guanosine-3'-5'-cyclic monophosphate and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine were also observed. In contrast, levels of 8-nitroguanosine (p < 0.05) were significantly reduced, which might be a protective measure as this compound strongly stimulates the generation of superoxide radicals, and its excess is related to pathologies such as microbial (viral) infections and other inflammatory and degenerative disorders. The results obtained indicate an induced adaptive response to the increased oxidative stress related to elite training, and point to the benefits associated with regular exercise.

Nitrative and oxidative DNA damage caused by K-ras mutation in mice.
    Biochemical and biophysical research communications, 2011, Sep-23, Volume: 413, Issue:2

    Ras mutation is important for carcinogenesis. Carcinogenesis consists of multi-step process with mutations in several genes. We investigated the role of DNA damage in carcinogenesis initiated by K-ras mutation, using conditional transgenic mice. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that mutagenic 8-nitroguanine and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) were apparently formed in adenocarcinoma caused by mutated K-ras. 8-Nitroguanine was co-localized with iNOS, eNOS, NF-κB, IKK, MAPK, MEK, and mutated K-ras, suggesting that oncogenic K-ras causes additional DNA damage via signaling pathway involving these molecules. It is noteworthy that K-ras mutation mediates not only cell over-proliferation but also the accumulation of mutagenic DNA lesions, leading to carcinogenesis.

Catalytic involvement of CO2 in the mutagenesis caused by reactions of ONOO(-) with guanine.
    The journal of physical chemistry. B, 2008, Apr-17, Volume: 112, Issue:15

    The catalytic role of CO2 in reactions of ONOO- with guanine, leading to the formation of the mutagenic species 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) and 8-nitroguanine anion (8-nitroG-), was investigated by considering the reactions of nitrosoperoxycarbonate anion (ONOOCO2-), an adduct of ONOO- and CO2, with guanine at the B3LYP/6-31G** and B3LYP/AUG-cc-pVDZ levels of density functional theory in gas phase. In order to study bulk solvent effect, single-point energy calculations in aqueous media were carried out for all the species occurring in the reactions at the B3LYP/AUG-cc-pVDZ level of theory, by use of the polarizable continuum model (PCM). Vibrational frequency analysis was performed, and zero-point-energy (ZPE)-corrected total energies and Gibbs free energy changes at 298.15 K were obtained. The genuineness of the calculated transition states was confirmed by visually examining the vibrational modes and also by intrinsic reaction coordinate (IRC) calculations. The reaction between ONOOCO2- and guanine occurring through four different mechanisms leads to the formation of 8-oxoG or its anion, while the reaction between the same two species occurring through a different scheme leads to the formation of 8-nitroG-. It has been shown that the presence of a water molecule along with ONOOCO2- would not affect the reaction mechanisms significantly. Structures of the reactant complexes, product complexes and barrier energies involved in the reactions reveal that CO2 acts as a catalyst for the reaction between ONOO- and guanine. The cause of the catalytic action of CO2 is mainly due to intermediacy of the CO3 radical anion and NO2 radical into which ONOOCO2- is fragmented while reacting with guanine. The relative stabilities of the different product complexes suggest that the mutation caused by ONOO- in the presence of CO2 would mainly involve 8-oxoG.

Importance of guanine nitration and hydroxylation in DNA in vitro and in vivo.
    Free radical biology & medicine, 2000, Jul-15, Volume: 29, Issue:2

    Guanine (Gua) modification by nitrating and hydroxylating systems was investigated in DNA. In isolated calf thymus DNA, 8-NO(2)-Gua and 8-oxo-Gua were dose-dependently formed with peroxynitrite, and 8-NO(2)-Gua was released in substantial amounts. Myeloperoxidase (MPO) with H(2)O(2) and NO(2)(-) reacted with calf thymus DNA to form 8-NO(2)-Gua dose dependently without release of 8-NO(2)-Gua. The frequency of strand breaks was higher than the sum of 8-NO(2)-Gua and 8-oxo-Gua, particularly in the MPO-treated DNA, indicating the importance of other types of damage. The activation of human neutrophils and lymphocytes with phorbol ester did not induce 8-NO(2)-Gua and 8-oxo-Gua in their nuclear DNA. However, 8-NO(2)-Gua was found in calf thymus DNA co-incubated with activated neutrophils in the presence of NO(2)(-). No significant formation of 8-NO(2)-Gua was found in liver DNA from mice treated with Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide. The incubation of peroxynitrite or MPO-H(2)O(2)-NO(2)(-)-treated DNA with formamidopyrimidine glycosylase (Fpg) released 8-oxo-Gua, but not 8-NO(2)-Gua, indicating that 8-NO(2)-Gua is not a substrate for Fpg. Although 8-NO(2)-Gua was generated in isolated DNA by different nitrating systems, other types of damage were formed in abundance, and the lesion could not be found reliably in nuclear DNA, suggesting that the biological importance is limited.

[Effect of carbon dioxide on peroxynitrite reaction with DNA].
    Voprosy onkologii, 1998, Volume: 44, Issue:1

    Carbon dioxide has been reported to react with peroxynitrite (ONO2CO2-), altering the reactivity characteristic of peroxynitrite. We found that carbon dioxide caused a dose-dependent increase in 8-nitroguanine formation in calf thymus DNA incubated with peroxynitrite, whereas there was not apparent effect on 8-oxoguanine formation. In contrast, carbon dioxide inhibited peroxynitrite-induced strand breakage in plasmid pBR322 DNA and thymine-propenal formation from thymidine.

Effects of carbon dioxide/bicarbonate on induction of DNA single-strand breaks and formation of 8-nitroguanine, 8-oxoguanine and base-propenal mediated by peroxynitrite.
    FEBS letters, 1996, Dec-09, Volume: 399, Issue:1-2

    Carbon dioxide has been reported to react with peroxynitrite (ONOO-), a strong oxidant and nitrating agent, to form an ONO2CO2- adduct, altering the reactivity characteristic of peroxynitrite. We found that bicarbonate (0-10 mM) caused a dose-dependent increase of up to 6-fold in the formation of 8-nitroguanine in calf-thymus DNA incubated with 0.1 mM peroxynitrite, whereas it produced no apparent effect on 8-oxoguanine formation. In contrast, bicarbonate inhibited peroxynitrite-induced strand breakage in plasmid pBR322 DNA and thymine-propenal formation from thymidine. We conclude that C02/HCO3- reacts with peroxynitrite to form a potent nitrating agent, but also to inactivate hydroxyl-radical-like activity of peroxynitrous acid.
