NCIt synonyms : hm6dA; N(6)-HOCH2-dAdo; N6-HOCH2-dAdo; N6-Hydroxymethyl-2'-Deoxyadenosine; N-6-Hydroxymethyl-dAdo; N(6)-Hydroxymethyl-dAdo; N6-Hydroxymethyl-dAdo;
NCIt definition : A formaldehyde metabolite and DNA adduct comprised of the N6-hydroxymethylated form
of the purine deoxyadenosine (dAdo). The concentration of N6-hydrxoxymethyl-dAdo in
either leukocytes or cells derived from the oral cavity may be directly correlated
to levels of formaldehyde exposure, which is correlated with exposure to carcinogenic
N-nitrosomethyl compounds.;
