Clastogenicity of carbazole in mouse bone marrow cells in vivo

Clastogenicity of carbazole was evaluated by employing mouse in vivo chromosomal aberration (CA) test. Carbazole administered intraperitoneally (i.p.) at the rate of 25, 50, 100, 150 and 200 mg/kg b.w. to Swiss albino mice in vivo resulted in mitotic depression and induction of chromosomal aberrations. Dose related decrease in mitotic index (MI) and increase in the frequencies of chromosomal aberrations per cell (CAs/cell) and percent abnormal cells were recorded in bone marrow cells. However, statistically significant reduction in MI and increase in CAs/cell and percent abnormal cells were found only for the two higher doses. The results obtained indicate that carbazole or its metabolite, if any, is moderately clastogenic in the bone marrow cells of Swiss albino mice.     

Genotoxicity of lomefloxacin--an antibacterial drug in somatic and germ cells of Swiss albino mice in vivo

The in vivo genotoxicity of lomefloxacin, a diflourinated antibacterial drug, was evaluated by employing mouse in vivo chromosomal aberration test in bone marrow cells and dominant lethal mutation assay in germ cells. Statistically significant reduction in mitotic index, increase in chromosomal aberrations (CAs)/cell and percent abnormal metaphase was observed only at the highest dose (160 mg/kg b.w.) of the drug. In the dominant lethal mutation assay, a statistically significant decrease in the number of implants/female, compared to vehicle control, was noticed only in the females mated with males treated with 32 mg/kg b.w. during the third week of mating, while statistically significant reduction in live implants/female was noticed at both the doses during the second and third weeks of mating. Nevertheless, no significant change in the number of dead implants/female was observed after lomefloxacin treatment. These results seems to indicate that lomefloxacin is a weak clastogen in the bone marrow cells and non-mutagenic in the germ cells of mouse in vivo.     

Cytogenetic activity of the herbicide sodium trichloroacetate

It is established that sodium trichloracetate does not induce chromosomal aberrations in bone marrow cells of mice, does not modify mutagenic effect induced by rubomicin, but increases chromosome aberration frequency in the culture of human peripheral lymphocytes and in germs of Crepis tectorum and Allium cepa seeds.     

Genotoxicity of two anticancer drugs,gemcitabine and topotecan,in mouse bone marrow in vivo

In this study, the genotoxic effects of gemcitabine and topotecan were investigated in mouse bone marrow cells using the micronucleus and chromosomal aberration test systems. Gemcitabine increased the frequency of micronuclei, particularly at the median dose for the 24-, 36-, and 48-h sampling intervals. It had cytotoxic effects on the bone marrow and decreased the polychromatic/normochromatic erythrocyte ratio dose-dependently for all sampling intervals. Gemcitabine significantly decreased the mitotic index at the 24-h time point. It increased the number of abnormal cells and induced a significant increase in total chromosomal aberrations. For the 6-h sampling time, gemcitabine neither induced chromosomal aberrations nor reduced the mitotic index. Topotecan also induced high levels of micronuclei, particularly for the 24- and 36-h sampling times and it decreased the polychromatic/normochromatic erythrocyte ratio for all sampling intervals, which is indicative of bone marrow cytotoxicity. The bone marrow metaphase analysis showed that topotecan significantly elevated the number of abnormal metaphases and total chromosomal aberrations at 6 and 24h, in a dose-dependent manner. It also decreased the mitotic index for both sampling intervals. In conclusion, the results of this study indicate that the two chemotherapeutics gemcitabine and topotecan have cytotoxic and genotoxic effects in mouse bone marrow.     

In vivo cytogenetic effects of cooked food mutagens

Using a variety of in vivo cytogenetic endpoints, we have investigated the effects of several compounds formed during the cooking of meat. C57Bl/6 mice were used to test for an increase in the frequency of sister-chromatid exchanges (SCEs), chromosomal aberrations, and micronucleated erythrocytes by 2-amino-3,8-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (MeIQx). 2-amino-3,4,8-trimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoxaline (DiMeIQx), and 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP). MeIQx and DiMeIQx did not induce SCEs in mouse bone marrow cells. PhIP induced sister-chromatid exchanges, but not chromosomal aberrations in bone marrow. In peripheral blood lymphocytes, PhIP did induce aberrations at 100 mg/kg, the highest dose tested. PhIP induced a low but significantly increased frequency of micronuclei in normochromatic but not polychromatic erythrocytes in bone marrow and peripheral blood. However, dose responses were not observed. With the exception of the SCEs induced by PhIP, these results contrast with observations made in vitro, where these compounds were found to have significant genotoxicity in mammalian cells and a very high mutation frequency in prokaryotic systems.     

An assessment of the genotoxicity of 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone,the natural dye ingredient of Henna

2-Hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (HNQ; Lawsone; CAS 83-72-7) is the principal natural dye ingredient contained in the leaves of Henna (Lawsonia inermis). Published genotoxicity studies on HNQ suggested it was a weak bacterial mutagen for Salmonella typhimurium strain TA98 or was more clearly mutagenic for strain TA 2637, both in the presence of metabolic activation. HNQ was unable to induce sex-linked recessive lethal mutations in Drosophila melanogaster. However, a small increase in micronucleus frequency was reported in the bone marrow of mice at a single mid-range dose level, 24h after intraperitoneal injection. In view of the wide use of Henna hair dyes it was deemed necessary to conduct a thorough investigation, under Good Laboratory Practice conditions, of the genotoxicity of HNQ. HNQ was non-mutagenic in bacterial (Ames test) or mammalian (V79 hprt) assays. It was borderline positive in a mouse lymphoma tk mutation assay and a chromosome aberration test (CHO cells), results that may reflect a similar clastogenic mechanism. Negative in vivo genotoxicity results were noted in the rat hepatocyte in vivo/in vitro UDS test, in peripheral lymphocytes (chromosome aberrations) of rats receiving repeated oral doses of HNQ at the MTD for 28 days, and in mouse and hamster bone marrow chromosome aberration tests. However small, but statistically significant increases in the incidence of bone marrow micronuclei were observed in two out of five tests at 72 h after dosing, but not at 24 or 48 h. There was evidence of haematotoxicity at 72 h, which may have been enhanced by the vehicle (DMSO) used in the positive tests. As erythropoiesis and administration of haematotoxic agents are known to induce small increases in the frequency of bone marrow micronuclei, typically at delayed sampling times, the data suggest that the positive 72 h response produced by HNQ is consistent with stimulation of haematopoiesis subsequent to haematological toxicity of HNQ, and not due to a DNA-reactive mechanism. Overall, the weight of evidence suggests that Henna and HNQ pose no genotoxic risk to the consumer.     

The effect of hyperbaric oxygenation on rat somatic and generative cells

The effect of higher oxygen pressures (0.3 MPa, 5 sessions 1 h each daily) on induction of chromosomal aberrations in somatic cells and germinal tissues of rat males has been studied. Appearance of aberrations in bone marrow cells after HBO was recorded for 3 months, in cells of eye cornea epithelium--during 3 weeks after the end of sessions. Chromosome rearrangements in the first meiotic division were detected only 90 days after sessions. HBO affects neither functional nor morphological conditions of gonads and induces no dominant lethals. It is suggested that mutagenesis in bone marrow cells is an adaptive process, preventing mutagenic consequences of HBO in the cells of germinal tissue.     

Chromosome aberrations and sister-chromatid exchange frequencies in pathology staff occupationally exposed to formaldehyde

Past studies have shown that formaldehyde is mutagenic in microbial tests and Drosophila and causes chromosomal aberrations in cultured mammalian cells. Chromosomal analysis of bone marrow cells and spermatocytes from exposed laboratory animals has failed to show any genotoxic effect. Information on individuals occupationally exposed is limited and there is no evidence to date that formaldehyde can induce chromosome damage at occupational levels of exposure. This study examines the chromosome aberration and sister-chromatid exchange frequencies in lymphocytes from a group of 6 pathology workers and 5 unexposed controls. No detectable differences could be found between the groups in either chromosomal aberration induction or sister-chromatid exchange frequencies.
