摘要
We have discovered that methylene blue plus light mediates the formation of 8-OHdG in DNA. Methylene blue is one of several thiazin dyes and we report here that the other thiazin dyes tested, in combination with white light, are effective in mediating 8-OHdG formation in DNA. The effectiveness of light plus the thiazin dyes in forming 8-OHdG in DNA were as follows: methylene blue > azure B > aure A > toluidine blue > thionin. Two other compounds tested; riboflavin and fuschin acid, in combination with light, caused formation of very little, if any, 8-OHdG in DNA. Thiazin dye mediated formation of 8-OHdG in DNA was not inhibited by the spin trap α-phenyl-t-butyl nitrone, which supports our previous observations that oxygen free radical scavengers did not inhibit methylene blue plus light mediated 8-OHdG formation in DNA. Ascobate addition to methylene blue plus DNA, in the absence of light, was ineffective in mediating 8-OHdG formation in DNA. © 1990.
