Cyclophosphamide and other bifunctional alkylating agents are potent animal teratogens inducing a variety of malformations. Although cyclophosphamide-induced DNA damage is implicated as a primary mechanism underlying the teratogenesis initiated by cyclophosphamide, additional insights into the complex nature of the teratogenic process have been hampered by the inability to analyze the primary teratogenic lesions, i.e., cyclophosphamide-DNA adducts. Using tandem mass spectrometry, we show that the monofunctional adduct N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-[2-(7-guaninyl)ethyl]amine (NOR-G) and bifunctional adduct N,N-bis[2-(7-guaninyl)ethyl]amine (G-NOR-G) can be detected in the DNA of organogenesis-stage rat embryos after an in vitro exposure to an embryotoxic concentration of activated cyclophosphamide, i.e., 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide.
