Global Profiling of the Oxidative Stress Induced Effects on RNA Modifications by Liquid Chromatography‐Tandem Mass Spectrometry
Abstract
The goal of this work was to profile the oxidative damage exerted by ultraviolet‐A radiation (UVA, 370 nm) or H2O2 on RNA modifications by liquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS). Oxidative damage to RNA impacts biological systems due to its association with metabolic, mitochondrial, neurological diseases and cancer.1,2 In the presence of photosensitizer (e.g., riboflavin), UVA radiation induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS, O2•, HOO•, HO•) in vivo.3 Likewise, H2O2 generates ROS under physiological conditions, and formation of radicals is accelerated via Fenton reactions in the presence of catalysts (e.g., Fe2+, Cu2+).4
