Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative and alkylating damage in DNA

TL;DR: This work addresses the importance of isotope labeling associated with mass spectrometry technique for biomolecule damage studies and provides the first evidence of the occurrence of 1,N(2)-epsilondGuo as a basal endogenous lesion and may be utilized to better assess the biological consequences of etheno DNA damage under normal and pathological conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative stress in the mussel Mytella guyanensis from polluted mangroves on Santa Catarina Island, Brazil.

TL;DR: Digestive glands of the mangrove mussel Mytella guyanensis, collected at one non-polluted site and two polluted sites, were analysed for different antioxidant defenses, lipid peroxidation and DNA damage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Protective effect of phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx) against lipid peroxidation in mussels Perna perna exposed to different metals

TL;DR: Positive correlations were observed between the enzyme phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase (PHGPx) and malonaldehyde (MDA) levels after Fe and Cu exposure, indicating a protective role of PHGPx against lipid peroxidation, and suggesting the use of this enzyme as a new potential biomarker of toxicity associated with contaminant exposure in mussels.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative stress in digestive gland and gill of the brown mussel (Perna perna) exposed to air and re-submersed

TL;DR: The DNA and lipid oxidative damage observed after aerial exposure indicates that mussels face an oxidative challenge, and are able to counteract such an “insult” as values of lipid peroxidation and DNA damage returned to control values after 3 h re-submersion.
