Oxidative DNA damage and antibodies to that damage have been implicated in lung, breast, and colorectal cancer. In this observational validation study, the relationship between anti-5-hydroxymethyl-2'-deoxyuridine (HMdU) autoantibody (aAb) and plasma micronutrients was assessed in 140 heavy smokers by ELISA.

The feature article is a review of the reaction of thymine in the one-electron oxidation of duplex DNA. Oxidation of DNA causes chemical reactions that result in remote damage (mutation) to a nucleobase. Normally this reaction occurs at guanine, but
