Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Halogenated quinones are a class of carcinogenic intermediates and newly identified chlorination disinfection byproducts in drinking water. We found recently that halogenated quinones could enhance the decomposition of hydroperoxides independent of transition-metal ions and formation of the novel quinone enoxy/ketoxy radicals. Here, we show that the major oxidation product was 2-amino-5-[(2-deoxy-β-d-erythro-pentofuranosyl)amino]-4H-imidazol-4-one (dIz) when the nucleoside 2′-deoxyguanosine (dG) was treated with tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone (TCBQ) and t-butyl hydroperoxide (t-BuOOH). The formation of dIz was markedly inhibited by typical radical spin-trapping agents. Interestingly and unexpectedly, we found that the generated quinone enoxy radical played a critical role in dIz formation. Using [N]-8-oxodG, dIz was found to be produced either directly from dG or through the transient formation of 8-oxodG. Based on these data, we proposed that the production of dIz might be through an unusual haloquinone-enoxy radical-mediated mechanism. Analogous results were observed in the oxidation of ctDNA by TCBQ/t-BuOOH and when t-BuOOH was substituted by the endogenously generated physiologically relevant hydroperoxide 13S-hydroperoxy-9Z,11E-octadecadienoic acid. This is the first report that halogenated quinoid carcinogens and hydroperoxides can induce potent oxidation of dG to the more mutagenic product dIz via an unprecedented quinone-enoxy radical-mediated mechanism, which may partly explain their potential carcinogenicity.
