High level of oxidized nucleosides in thyroid mitochondrial DNA; damaging effects of Fenton reaction substrates
BACKGROUND: The mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) lies in close proximity to the free radical-producing electron transport chain, thus, it is highly prone to oxidative damage. Oxyphilic type of follicular thyroid carcinoma consists of cells filled – almost exclusively – with aberrant mitochondria. In turn,...
