| Abstract | The 8-oxo-7,8-dihydropurines (8-oxopurines) are important cellular premutagenic lesions produced in DNA by free radicals. Specific antibodies were prepared to detect these lesions. For antigens, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroadenosine (8-oxoAdo) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (8-oxoGuo) were synthesized from the bromonucleosides, and the immunogens were produced by conjugating these to either bovine serum albumin or rabbit serum albumin by the periodate method. Polyclonal antibodies specific for the haptens were elicited from rabbits immunized with the BSA conjugates. The antibodies to 8-oxoAdo (anti-8-oxoAdo) and 8-oxoGuo (anti-8-oxoGuo) precipitated the homologous antigens in an Ouchterlony gel diffusion assay and no cross-reactivity was observed toward the normal nucleosides or to the heterologous 8-oxopurine. Specificity was also examined by hapten inhibition of antibody reactivity with the homologous conjugates using ELISA. For anti-8-oxoAdo, the IC50 for 8-oxoAdo was 8 µmol/L and 8-bromoadenosine, guanosine, and inosine did not inhibit, even at concentrations of 1.25 mmol/L. Similarly, the IC50 for anti-8-oxoGuo for 8-oxoGuo was 0.1 µmol/L. 8-Methoxyguanosine also inhibited the reaction but was about 500-fold less effective than the eliciting hapten. Other nucleosides tested did not inhibit at concentrations up to 100 µmol/L. Both antibodies could easily detect the corresponding damage in x-irradiated fl DNA at a dose of 7.5 Gy and both antibodies recognized the corresponding lesion in duplex DNA; however, with anti-8-oxoGuo the signal was reduced about 50% compared to single-stranded DNA. In order to determine the exact amount of each lesion produced in irradiated DNA, and to standardize the ELISA signal, both products were measured after alkaline phosphatase digestion of x-irradiated calf thymus DNA using high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled to an electrochemical detector. Anti-8-oxoGuo could detect ten 8-oxoG residues and anti-8-oxoAdo could detect two 8-oxoA residues per 10 000 nucleotides. Thus, these antibodies should be useful for the detection and measurement of 8-oxopurines in cellular DNA. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
