A wide range of DNA electrochemical biosensor analytical and biotechnological applications in pharmacology are foreseen, due to their ability to determine in situ and in real-time the DNA interaction mechanisms with pharmaceutical drugs, as well as with their degradation products, redox reaction products, and metabolites, and due to their capacity to achieve quantitative electroanalytical evaluation of the drugs, with high sensitivity, short time of analysis, and low cost. This review presents the design and applications of label-free DNA electrochemical biosensors that use DNA direct electrochemical oxidation to detect oxidative DNA damage. The DNA electrochemical biosensor development, from the viewpoint of electrochemical and atomic force microscopy (AFM) characterization, and the bottom-up immobilization of DNA nanostructures at the electrode surface, are described. Applications of DNA electrochemical biosensors that enable the label-free detection of DNA interactions with pharmaceutical compounds, such as acridine derivatives, alkaloids, alkylating agents, alkylphosphocholines, antibiotics, antimetabolites, kinase inhibitors, immunomodulatory agents, metal complexes, nucleoside analogs, and phenolic compounds, which can be used in drug analysis and drug discovery, and may lead to future screening systems, are reviewed.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s21041125","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,7]],"date-time":"2021-02-07T14:04:13Z","timestamp":1612706653000},"page":"1125","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":36,"title":["DNA Electrochemical Biosensors for In Situ Probing of Pharmaceutical Drug Oxidative DNA Damage"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"21","author":[{"given":"Ana-Maria","family":"Chiorcea-Paquim","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry, Centre for Mechanical Engineering, Materials and Processes\u2014CEMMPRE, University of Coimbra, 3004-535 Coimbra, Portugal"},{"name":"Instituto Pedro Nunes, Rua Pedro Nunes, 3030-199 Coimbra, Portugal"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6244-0891","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ana Maria","family":"Oliveira-Brett","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemistry, Centre for Mechanical Engineering, Materials and Processes\u2014CEMMPRE, University of Coimbra, 3004-535 Coimbra, Portugal"},{"name":"Instituto Pedro Nunes, Rua Pedro Nunes, 3030-199 Coimbra, Portugal"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,2,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"21","DOI":"10.1186\/s41021-017-0081-0","article-title":"Generation, repair and replication of guanine oxidation products","volume":"39","author":"Kino","year":"2017","journal-title":"Genes Environ."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"105","DOI":"10.1016\/S0302-4598(96)05182-3","article-title":"Electrochemical and enzymic oxidation of guanosine and 8-hydroxyguanosine and the effects of oxidation products in mice","volume":"43","author":"Goyal","year":"1997","journal-title":"Bioelectrochem.
