Experimental data suggest a possible role of DNA damage in aging, mainly related to oxidative lesions. With the objective of evaluating DNA lesions as molecular biomarkers of aging, we measured 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) and DNA-protein crosslinks (DPXL) levels in different organs of mice aged 12 and 24 months. 8-OH-dG was detected...
