We have utilized in vivo drug metabolism for detecting the mutagenicity of known indirectly-acting chemical mutagens. Exponentially growing Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells were incubated with plasma derived from treated rats containing active metabolites of the test chemicals. The genotoxicity was assessed by the 18 of tested chemical mutagens. Plasma from rats treated with known non-mutagens did not increase the frequencies of SCEs. The results indicate that this method could be useful for the demonstration of genotoxicity of chemicals which need metabolic activation to be effective, and especially those which are not effective, when in vitro activation conditions (S9 mixture) are used. 相似文献

The role of UV-induced DNA lesions and their repair in the formation of chromosomal aberrations in the xrs mutant cell lines xrs 5 and xrs 6 and their wild-type counterpart, CHO-K1 cells, were studied. The extent of induction of DNA single-strand breaks (SSBs) and DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) due to UV irradiation in the presence or absence of 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine (ara-C) and hydroxyurea (HU) was determined using the alkaline and neutral elution methods. Results of these experiments were compared with the frequencies of induced chromosomal aberrations in UV-irradiated G1 cells treated under similar conditions. Xrs 6 cells showed a defect in their ability to perform the incision step of nucleotide repair after UV irradiation. Accumulation of breaks 2 h after UV irradiation in xrs 6 cells in the presence of HU and ara-C remained at the level of incision breaks estimated after 20 min, which was about 35% of that found in wild-type CHO-K1 cells. In UV-irradiated CHO-K1 and xrs 5 cells, more incision breaks were present after 2 h compared with 20 min post-treatment with ara-C, a further increase was evident when HU was added to the combined treatment. The level of incision breaks induced under these conditions in xrs 5 was about 80% of that observed in CHO-K1 cells. UV irradiation itself did not induce any detectable DNA strand breaks. Accumulation of SSBs in UV-irradiated cells post-treated with ara-C and HU coincides with the increase in the frequency of chromosomal aberrations. These data suggest that accumulated SSBs when converted to DSBs in G1 give rise to chromosome-type aberrations, whereas strand breaks persisting until S-phase result in chromatid-type aberrations. Xrs 6 appeared to be the first ionizing-radiation-sensitive mutant with a partial defect in the incision step of DNA repair of UV-induced damage. 相似文献

Summary Cells of the mouse T-lymphoma line GRSL13 were treated with 8-methoxy-psoralen plus longwave ultraviolet light (PUVA) under conditions where the biological effects are mainly due to non-persistent DNA crosslinks (PUVA-CL treatment). Fluctuation analysis showed that PUVA-CL treatment resulted in an enhancement of the mutation rate in the progeny of treated cells, which persisted until the eleventh generation after treatment. Since only 5 cross-links are available to account for 52 mutational events observed in the coding region, about 90% of the induced mutational events must have been untargeted. This was confirmed by molecular analysis of these mutations, which showed that 53% of the point mutations arose at sites which are not a target for psoralens. This supports the hypothesis that stress responses may give rise to untargeted mutagenesis. Further support for this hypothesis is provided by the observation that 8-methoxy-psoralen (8-MOP) or UVA alone (both of which are known to induce many pleiotropic effects) each acted as indirect mutagen by enhancing the mutation rate 2–4 fold in the progeny of treated cells. 相似文献

A modified mouse splenocyte culture system was standardized after testing different mitogens (i.e., phytohemagglutinin (PHA), concanavalin A (Con A)). The mitotic index was determined for comparison between different mitogens. Following selection of appropriate mitogen (PHA 16, Flow), a series of experiments were conducted to evaluate the application of a cytokinesis-block for scoring micronuclei and assays for chromosomal aberrations produced by treatment in G0 and G2 for the purposes of biological dosimetry following in vivo and/or in vitro exposure to X-rays, fission neutrons and bleomycin. In the X-irradiation studies, the frequencies of micronuclei and chromosomal aberrations (i.e., dicentrics and rings) increased in a dose-dependent manner. These data could be fitted to a linear-quadratic model. No difference was observed between irradiation in vivo and in vitro, suggesting that measurement of dicentrics and micronuclei in vitro after X-irradiation can be used as an in vivo dosimeter. Following in vivo irradiation with 1 MeV fission neutrons and in vitro culturing of mouse splenocytes, linear dose-response curves were obtained for induction of micronuclei and chromosomal aberrations. The lethal effects of neutrons were shown to be significantly greater than for a similar dose of X-rays. The relative biological effectiveness (RBE) was 6-8 in a dose range of 0.25-3 Gy for radiation-induced asymmetrical exchanges (dicentrics and rings), and about 8 for micronuclei in a dose range of 0.25-2 Gy. Furthermore, the induction of chromosomal aberrations by bleomycin was investigated in mouse G0 splenocytes (in vitro) and compared with X-ray data. Following bleomycin treatment (2 h) a similar pattern of dose-response curve was obtained as with X-rays. In this context a bleomycin rad equivalent of 20 micrograms/ml = 0.50 Gy was estimated. 相似文献

Short treatment (up to 1 h) of cytosine arabinoside (araC) increases the frequencies of aberrations induced by X-rays in human lymphocytes, evaluated at the first mitosis following stimulation, or as prematurely condensed chromosomes of G0 nuclei. Parallel biochemical experiments using nucleoid sedimentation technique, demonstrate that araC inhibits rejoining of DNA-strand breaks effectively. These results point out that X-ray-induced short-lived DNA strand breaks lead to chromosomal aberrations in human lymphocytes. 相似文献

Cerium oxide nanoparticles are associated with anticancer effects. While protecting normal cells, these nanoparticles exert their anticancer effects via oxidative stress and apoptosis in the cancer cells. In this study, the anticancer properties of nanoceria on fibrosarcoma cell line are evaluated. Cerium oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by the coprecipitation method and their anticancer effects on mouse fibrosarcoma tumor cells (WEHI164) were investigated. Viability assay was evaluated by MTT, and the DC-FDA assay performed for the detection of reactive oxygen species. For apoptosis assay, the annexin V/PI test was done as well as measuring the mRNA and protein expression levels of Bax and Bcl2 by real-time PCR and western blot method, respectively. Characterization of nanoceria reveals that synthesized nanoceria has cubic floruit structure with a size of about 30 nm. Toxicity assessment results show that nanoceria increases ROS levels and induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner in cancer cells (WEHI164), whereas low levels of toxicity were observed in normal cells (L929), even at the concentrations above 250 µg/ml in MTT assay. Real-time PCR and western blot assays showed that nanoceria could significantly increase the Bax expression in cancer cells. The results showed that nanoceria could act as a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of fibrosarcoma. 相似文献

Poor wound healing is a highly prevalent clinical problem with, as yet, no entirely satisfactory solution. A new technique, termed electrospinning, may provide a solution to improve wound healing. Due to their large surface area to volume ratio and porosity, the nanofibers created by electrospinning are able to deliver sustained drug release and oxygen to the wound. Using different types of polymers with varying properties helps strengthening nanofiber and exudates absorption. The nanofibers appear to have an ideal structure applicable for wound healing and, in combination with curcumin, can blend the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of curcumin into a highly effective wound dressing. The use of suitable curcumin solvents and the slow release of curcumin from the nanofiber help in overcoming the known limitations of curcumin, specifically its low stability and limited bioavailability. Here, we review the studies which have been done on synthesized nanofibers containing curcumin, produced by the electrospinning technique, for the purpose of wound healing. 相似文献

This paper presents the results of a feasibility cytogenetic study using the fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) translocation assay for residents of villages located on the Techa River (Southern Urals, Russia) contaminated with liquid radioactive wastes from the Mayak plutonium facility in 1949-1956. The study was conducted with two groups of donors that differed in their main pathways of exposure. The first group comprised 18 residents of the middle Techa region who were exposed predominantly from ingestion of radionuclides (mostly (89,90)Sr) via the river water and local foodstuffs. The second group included 20 residents of Metlino, the closest village to the site of releases, who were exposed to external γ radiation from the contaminated river bank and exposed internally from dietary intake of radionuclides. A significant linear dependence between the radiation-induced translocation frequency and individual red bone marrow dose from incorporated (89,90)Sr, calculated with the Techa River Dosimetry System (TRDS), was found in the first group of donors. This allowed us to take the contribution of (89,90)Sr to the total radiation-induced translocation frequency into account for the second group of donors and to analyze translocations resulting from external γ-ray exposure. Individual doses from external exposure derived from the corrected translocation frequency for the second group of donors (Metlino residents), using a linear dose-response coefficient of 0.015 translocation/cell/Gy recommended by Edwards et al. in 2005, were shown to vary up to 2.1 Gy, with an average value of 0.48 Gy, which was in agreement with TRDS-based external dose estimates for Metlino residents. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the possible relationship between the bystander effect and the low-dose hypersensitivity/increased
radio-resistance phenomenon in BJ fibroblast cells taking as response criteria different end points of radiation damage such
as cell survival, chromosomal damage (as detected by using micronucleus assay) and double strand breaks (DSBs) of the DNA.
Although γ-H2AX foci were observed in confluent bystander BJ cells, our data suggest that X-irradiation does not lead to a
significant rate of DSBs in bystander cells. Thus, neither bystander effect induced unstable chromosomal aberrations nor bystander
effect induced DSBs are sufficiently pronounced to explain the apparent relationship between bystander effect and low-dose
hypersensitivity. The experiments described here suggest that the hyper-radiosensitivity phenomenon might be related to bystander
factor induced cell inactivation in the low-dose region (lower than 1 Gy). 相似文献
