A study of endonuclease III-sensitive sites in irradiated DNA: detection of alpha-particle-induced oxidative damage.

abstract：:We have measured the levels of thymine glycol (TG) and thymidine glycol (dTG) in human urine, using an HPLC method. The results show that all 30 specimens examined (including 10 non-neoplastic and 20 neoplastic human urines) contained significant amounts of TG and dTG, average levels (mean +/- SEM) were 0.376 +/- 0.02...
