Emerging evidence highlights the importance of biomarkers for understanding the mechanisms underlying SPTB. One such biomarker, 8-OH-2dG, plays a critical role in evaluating oxidative stress and its impact on pregnancy outcomes. It has been demonstrated that 8-OH-2dG is a product of oxidative DNA damage and is widely recognized as a key indicator of cellular oxidative stress. Elevated reactive oxygen species in SPTB result in higher levels of the DNA degradation product 8-OH-2dG in amniotic fluid, causing damage to maternal and fetal tissues that could lead to premature rupture of fetal membranes. Therefore, evaluating the role of 8-OH-2dG in SPTB is of great interest. This review provides an overview of the current knowledge on 8-OH-2dG as a biomarker for SPTB and aims to elucidate its mechanism in this condition.展开更多
