8-OHdG is presented as a non-specific marker of toxic body burden rather than a marker of a specific toxin. 8-OHdG rises in proportion to oxidative DNA damage. In oncology contexts, elevated 8-OHdG is associated with cancer occurrence, tumor behavior, angiogenesis, and recurrence risk. Elevated 8-OHdG is linked by the article to cardiovascular disease risk and metabolic disease. The article describes 8-OHdG as a clinical marker of mitochondrial DNA stress that is relevant to fatigue.
