With the aim to develop beneficial tracers for cerebral tumors, we tested two novel 5-iodo-2′-deoxyuridine (IUdR) derivatives, diesterified at the deoxyribose residue. The substances were designed to enhance the uptake into brain tumor tissue and to prolong the availability in the organism. We synthesized carrier added 5-[125I]iodo-3′,5′-di-O-acetyl-2′-deoxyuridine (Ac2[125I]IUdR), 5-[125I]iodo-3′,5′-di-O-pivaloyl-2′-deoxyuridine (Piv2[125I]IUdR) and their respective precursor molecules for the first time. HPLC was used for purification and to determine the specific activities. The iodonucleoside tracer were tested for their stability against human thymidine phosphorylase. DNA integration of each tracer was determined in 2 glioma cell lines (Gl261, CRL2397) and in PC12 cells in vitro. In mice, we measured the relative biodistribution and the tracer uptake in grafted brain tumors. Ac2[125I]IUdR, Piv2[125I]IUdR and [125I]IUdR (control) were prepared with labeling yields of 31–47% and radiochemical purities of >99% (HPLC). Both diesterified iodonucleoside tracers showed a nearly 100% resistance against degradation by thymidine phosphorylase. Ac2[125I]IUdR and Piv2[125I]IUdR were specifically integrated into the DNA of all tested tumor cell lines but to a less extend than the control [125I]IUdR. In mice, 24 h after i.p. injection, brain radioactivity uptakes were in the following order Piv2[125I]IUdR>Ac2[125I]IUdR>[125I]IUdR. For Ac2[125I]IUdR we detected lower amounts of radioactivities in the thyroid and stomach, suggesting a higher stability toward deiodination. In mice bearing unilateral graft-induced brain tumors, the uptake ratios of tumor-bearing to healthy hemisphere were 51, 68 and 6 for [125I]IUdR, Ac2[125I]IUdR and Piv2[125I]IUdR, respectively. Esterifications of both deoxyribosyl hydroxyl groups of the tumor tracer IUdR lead to advantageous properties regarding uptake into brain tumor tissue and metabolic stability.  相似文献

The effects of body water deuteration on mammalian DNA synthesis in vivo during the deuterium equilibration period in the body were studied. Young adult mice were given 15% or 30% D2O in the drinking water for 4, 10 or 21 days. Control mice were given distilled water. Eighteen hours prior to sacrifice, 125IUdR, a conveniently monitored synthetic analogue of the DNA precursor thymidine, was injected intravenously. Although neither radioiodine activity of the total body nor body weight varied significantly among the three groups, thymic radioactivity per g tissue was significantly lower in mice given 30% D2O and, to a lesser extent, in mice given 15% D2O than in the control group. In contrast, intestine and hemopoietic bone marrow displayed minor changes in 125IUdR incorporation. This reduction of 125IUdR incorporation is discussed in relation to the particular importance of thymidine reutilization in the thymus.  相似文献

The structural features of 4-ethylsulphonylnaphthalene-1-sulphonamide (ENS) responsible for the induction of DNA synthesis in the mouse bladder have been investigated using a method in which DNA synthesis is measured by the uptake of a thymidine analogue, [125I]5-iodo-2′-deoxyuridine (IUdR). The ability to stimulate DNA synthesis was unaffected by the nature of the alkyl group in 4-alkylsulphonylnaphthalene-1-sulphonamide. The sulphonamide group appeared to be essential to the activity of the molecule because naphthalene-1,4-disulphonamide was active whereas 1,4-diethylsulphonylnaphthalene was not. Maximum activity was found when the sulphonamide group was attached to an aromatic system (benzene or naphthalene) containing an alkylsulphonyl or a sulphonamide group. Bladder carcinogens other than ENS failed to stimulate the uptake of [125I]IUdR sufficiently to produce statistically significant results. The reasons for the large variation in response between individual mice are discussed, as are the implications of the structure activity relationships to the mode of action of ENS.  相似文献

Mice were injected intravenously with tritiated thymidine (TdR) and 125I-labeled iododeoxyuridine (IUdR) in low doses to provide a simultaneous labeling of tissue DNA with non-toxic amounts of these two precursors. The total activity per organ and the ratio of the two isotopes was measured in the DNA at various times between 1 and 15 days after the injection. Since TdR from dying cells is re-utilized more efficiently than IUdR from the same cells, more labeled TdR than IUdR was retained in the tissue DNA in these experiments. From the slopes of the regression lines, the true rate of turnover of replicating tissue DNA and the per cent re-utilization of TdR were calculated. Re-utilization of TdR varied from 37 to 60 % in the six tissues examined.  相似文献

An assay system has been characterised using excess thymidine (TdR) as a selective agent, and the dose-response curve for X-ray induced variants resistant to thymidine has been compared with that for X-ray induced variants resistant to 5-iodo-2-deoxyuridine (IUdR) in P388 lymphoma cells. Dose-response curves showed a linear and a dose squared component in this cell line and were similar in both selective systems. A comparison has been mae of the dose-response curves for X-ray induced thymidine resistant (TdR+) variants in four other lymphoma cell lines of differing radiosensitivity. When induced frequencies were compared either at the same dose or at the same survival level the most sensitive line L5178YS was found to be most mutable.Repair replication levels were measured in all cell lines but no correlation between observed levels of repair replication and mutability in the 5 cell lines was found. The data are discussed in relation to the possible involvement of repair processes in mutation induction by X-rays in mammalian cells.  相似文献

Clones resistant to 5-iodo-2-deoxyuridine (IUdR) were isolated from P388 cells and cultured in the absence of selective medium. Thymidine kinase assays were performed on 8 clones which had arisen spontaneously and 19 isolated after exposure to X-rays or alkylating agents. All the clones tested showed significantly reduced thymidine kinase activity relative to wild-type cultures, but none showed zero levels. 14 of these clones were tested for thymidine (TdR) uptake and all showed a marked reduction in the rate of [3H]TdR incorporation into acid soluble fractions and into DNA. 7 IUdR-resistant (IUdRr) clones were tested for revertibility as measured by growth of colonies in HAT medium. 5 of the 7 were found to revert at measurable rates either spontaneously or after a low dose of mutagen.Thymidine kinase activity was also measured in 8 thymidine resistant P388 clones (TdRr). Initial rates of thymidine phosphorylation were not significantly altered in 5 of the 8 clones tested but significantly lower amounts of phosphorylated products were observed in 6 of the 8 clones. [3H]TdR uptake was reduced in 9 of 12 clones tested, and 2 of them showed no corresponding reduction in the thymidine kinase activity, suggesting the occurence of mutants with altered permeability for thymidine.IUdR resistant L5178Y clones could not be isolated. Thymidine resistant L5178Y clones were similar to TdRr P388 clones, i.e. they showed changes in initial rates of thymidine kinase activity and reduced accumulation of phosphorylated products. Only one clone could be shown to be a membrane mutant. These results are discussed in relation to the genetic nature of the thymidine kinase locus in the two cell lines.  相似文献

Because of the high intranuclear toxicity of Auger-electron emitters, the use of radioiodinated (123I, 125I) 5-iodo-2′-deoxyuridine (IUdR)-antibody conjugates for cancer therapy has been examined. The results have demonstrated that all the conditions necessary for labeling DNA in vivo are present: uptake of the radiolabeled immunoglobulin by target cells, its subsequent internalization, the degradation of the IUdR-protein conjugate by lysosomal enzymes, and the incorporation of the radionucleoside into DNA.  相似文献

Abstract

We have examined the presence and properties of specific receptors for IGF-I on bovine mononuclear cells. Competitive binding studies showed that binding of [125I]IGF-I to mononuclear cells was inhibited by unlabelled peptides with the rank of IGF-I > IGF-II > insulin. The binding of [125I]IGF-I was a function of the cell concentration. Equilibrium dissociation constant and receptor concentration values for the average of 9 adult cows were 1.13 ± 0.11 nM and 108.9 ± 24.1 fMol/107 cells, respectively. Moreover, IGF-I stimulated thymidine incorporation into bovine mononuclear cells in the absence of serum and phytohemagglutinin (PHA). The existence of specific and functional IGF-I receptors on circulating bovine mononuclear cells would provide an easily accessible source for studying IGF-I receptor changes in the bovine, both in physiologic and pathologic states.  相似文献

YAC-1 tumor cells double-labeled with Na2[51Cr]O4 [51Cr] and [125I]iododeoxyuridine [125IUdR] were injected intravenously into Balb/c mice in order to investigate their migration and fate 0–4 h after the injection. Whereas the clearance of tumor cells from the lung tissue was similar as judged with both labels, the kinetics of isotope uptake in the liver were strikingly different. Thus, retention of 51Cr in the liver was very high compared to a much lower and only transient retention of 125I. A higher retention of non-tumor cell-associated 51Cr was also observed in most other organs, resulting in overestimation of the number of viable tumor cells in these organs. Moreover, a marked spontaneous release (> 10% after 12 h) makes 51Cr less suitable as a cell label than 125IUdR. On the other hand, we found that the release of 125I from dead cells in vivo depends at least partially on host factors such as macrophages. Consequently, caution must be exerted when tumor cell migration is investigated in animals treated with drugs that might affect the reticuloendothelial system. We conclude that 125IUdR is superior to 51Cr as a cell label for investigation of tumor cell migration in vivo, even though some doubt about the reliability of the number of tumor cells in liver and carcass, predicted by this radiolabel, still remains.  相似文献

The rate of cell loss in irradiated RIF-1, EMT6, KHJJ, B16 and KHT tumours was studied using the 125IUdR loss technique. Administration of 125IUdR preceded localized tumour irradiation by 2 days. Loss of tumour radioactivity was measured for 6–8 days after irradiation. the blood flow to some tumours was occluded during, and for 30 min following, injection of the label to measure the amount of radioactivity entering the tumour as a result of reutilization of label from the gut epithelia and influx of labelled host cells. Irradiation did not significantly alter the amount of radioactivity entering these clamped tumours during the 8–10 days after injection of 125IUdR. This permitted comparison of irradiated and control groups based on the loss of radioactivity from the non-occluded tumours. Irradiation of RIF-1, EMT6, KHJJ or B16 tumours with doses of 600, 1400, 2400 or 4400 rads produced no significant increase in the rate of loss of tumour radioactivity. This suggested that, in the population of labelled cells, cell lysis following irradiation proceeded slowly. In contrast, KHT tumours showed a significant increase in loss rate following each radiation dose, although the increase was dose-independent. In all tumour systems, the constant rate of cell loss after radiation appeared to coincide with published reports of tumour growth responses after irradiation. the present data suggest that the manner of expression of radiation-induced cell killing results from the cellular proliferative status, i.e. whether a cell is cycling or non-cycling.  相似文献

Purified vaccinia virus, which had been grown on chick-embryo chorioallantoic membranes in the presence or in the absence of 5-iodo-2′-deoxyuridine (IUdR), was suspended in 5 m ammonium acetate and subjected to the one-step Kleinschmidt procedure on surfaces of distilled water or salt solutions. Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules were clearly revealed, and in many instances accurate length measurements could be made. The longest continuous molecules from normal virus measured 78, 77, and 65 μ. The most frequent length was approximately 30 μ, which corresponds to only one-third to one-half of the total DNA per virus particle predicted from various chemical analyses. These data provide direct evidence that normal vaccinia DNA may occur as a linear molecule of approximately 150 × 106 molecular weight units, but, for reasons still unknown, the majority of these molecules appears to break into segments of equal length during release from the virion. There is no evidence for the presence of cyclic DNA. The DNA molecules are typically double-stranded. DNA from IUdR-treated vaccinia presents a markedly different picture: the molecules are mostly fragmented into small pieces, and rosettes or tangled masses equivalent to even one-quarter the length of normal molecules occur very rarely. The possibility is discussed that at least part of the virus-inhibitory effect of IUdR on vaccinia is due to extensive fragmentation of the DNA molecules into which IUdR has been incorporated in place of thymidine.  相似文献

The toxicity of 3H-5-iodo-2′-deoxyuridine (3H-IUdR) was evaluated by injecting tumor-bearing C3H mice with different concentrations of ethanol (the solvent), different doses of tritium tagged onto either IUdR or thymidine and different chemical doses of IUdR, and then measuring the 3H-IUdR incorporation into duodenal and mammary tumor DNA as well as the cellular kinetics of duodenal crypt cells. Ethanol (37% or less, 0.2 ml/mouse) does not significantly inhibit IUdR incorporation into DNA, and the incorporation after a tritium dose of 75 μCi 3H-IUdR/mouse (about 3 μCi/g body weight) is not less than the incorporation following an injection of 25 μCi 3H-IUdR/mouse when the IUdR dose is below 0.005 μmole per mouse. The toxic effects are primarily due to chemical toxicity from IUdR per se. IUdR, at doses of 0.2 μmoles per mouse does inhibit IUdR incorporation into duodenal and tumor DNA, and the duodenal labeling index and the fraction of labeled mitoses are significantly reduced when 0.013 μmole IUdR per mouse is injected. Also some of the duodenal cells containing IUdR apparently undergo only one post-labeling division and the generation time (Tc) of the cells containing IUdR (25 μCi 3H-IUdR/mouse) is 15.3 hr as compared to 13.3 hr for cells labeled with 3H-T (75 μCi/mouse). This increase in Tc is probably not statistically significant; nevertheless, these results do indicate that one must be exceedingly cautious when using 3H-IUdR as a radiotracer for studies concerned with in vivo cellular kinetics and, at least for C3H mice, the dose should be less than 0.01 μmole per 25 g mouse.  相似文献

Summary It has been suggested that nascent DNA located at the DNA replication fork may exhibit enhanced sensitivity to radiation damage. To evaluate this hypothesis, Chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO) were labeled with125I-iododeoxyuridine (125IUdR) either in the presence or absence of aphidicolin. Aphidicolin (5 µg/ml) reduced cellular125IUdR incorporation to 3–5% of the control value. The residual125I incorporation appeared to be restricted to low molecular weight (sub-replicon sized) fragments of DNA which were more sensitive to micrococcal nuclease attack and less sensitive to high salt DNase I digestion than randomly labeled DNA. These findings suggest that DNA replicated in the presence of aphidicolin remains localized at the replication fork adjacent to the nuclear matrix.Based on these observations an attempt was made to compare the lethal consequences of125I decays at the replication fork to that of125I decays randomly distributed over the entire genome. Regardless of the distribution of decay events, all treatment groups exhibited identical dose-response curves (D0: 101125I decays/cell). Since differential irradiation of the replication complex did not result in enhanced cell lethality, it can be concluded that neither the nascent DNA nor the protein components (replicative enzymes, nuclear protein matrix) associated with the DNA replication site constitute key radiosensitive targets within the cellular genome.  相似文献

Auger effects from 125I decay are singularly damaging if localized in DNA as the thymidine analogue 125I-iododeoxyuridine (125IUdR). Recent experience with steroid sex hormones extends these observations by demonstrating cytotoxicity in sites other than the DNA backbone. We have compared the cytotoxicity in human MCF-7 breast cancer cells of 125IUdR, 125I-iodotamoxifen, a nonsteroidal antiestrogen that is translocated from the cytoplasm to the nucleus of receptor containing cells, and 125I-iodoantipyrine, a biological indicator of the body water space. Cytotoxicity is critically dependent upon subcellular localization.  相似文献

Dose-response curves for “mutation” to resistance to 5-iodo-2-deoxyuridine (IUdR) and excess thymidine (TdR) in P388 mouse lymphoma cells have been established after exposure of these cells to six chemical mutagens, UV |and| ionising radiations. The dose-response curves for all mutagens in both selective system show considerable similarities when induced mutation frequencies are plotted against survival. Expression time for both types of variants, IUdRr and TdRr, are similar, i.e. maximum frequencies are reached by 48 h and there is no fall in variant frequency at late expression times up to 144 h. Over the range of survival levels studied there appears to be little or no dependence of expression time on dose of mutagen. Some loss of mutants after high doses (i.e. at low survival levels) was observed due to the fact that a significant proportion of both TdRr and IUdRr clones were more sensitive to the mutagens than the wild-type population. The similarities in induced dose-response curves for different mutagens suggest that the mutants have a common origin, probably an error in repair, but it seems unlikely that errors in “cut and patch” repair are responsible. A comparison of spontaneous frequencies of IUdRr and TdRr variants suggests that IUdR is mutagenic in P388 cells.  相似文献

Supernatant fluids harvested from macrophage, lymphocyte or tumor cell cultures were shown to inhibit the incorporation of 125IUdR into dividing cells without affecting DNA synthesis and cellular proliferation. This activity was associated with a molecular weight of less than 1000 Daltons, was dialysable, heat stable and could be stored at +4° and ?20°C indefinitely. Its effect on 125IUdR incorporation was reversible and cells washed after incubation with the supernatants labelled to the same extent as controls. The origin and nature of this inhibitory activity are briefly discussed.  相似文献

Mice were injected intravenously and intraperitoneally with preparations of intestinal nucleoprotein, spleen nuclei, mouse thymus cells, or human kidney T cells whose DNA had been labeled with both [3H]thymidine (TdR) and [125I]-iododeoxyuridine (IUdR). Since free TdR is reutilized more efficiently than free IUdR produced by enzymic hydrolysis of the exogenous DNA, the ratio of [3H]TdR/[125I]IUdR in the DNA fraction of the tissues of the recipient mice provides a measure of the amount of intact exogenous DNA in the tissue. In most instances, the doubly labeled exogenous DNA was almost completely hydrolyzed within 1 day injection, but survival of the DNA from whole cells could be demonstrated in some cases.  相似文献

Magnetic field affects thymidine kinase in vivo   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Whole mice on normal or vitamin E deficient diet were immobilized by Nembutal anaesthesia and exposed to a stationary magnetic field of 1.4 tesla for up to 60 min. Thymidine kinase (TdR-K) was assayed in the high-speed supernatant of bone marrow cells which were collected into optimally adjusted nutrient medium of pH 7.3-7.4 containing 1350 mg NaHCO3 per litre and were then destroyed by sonication. In parallel, uptake of 125I-labelled 5-I-2'-deoxyuridine (125IUdR) into DNA of whole bone marrow cells, of various tissues and of the whole body was measured. The results indicate the following. The magnetic field exposure caused in bone marrow cells an increase of activity of TdR-K and of uptake of 125IUdR to about 130 per cent of control. The effect depended on immobilization of the mice in the field and on the presence of NaHCO3 in the nutrient medium used for cell collection. There was no field-induced change in body temperature. The effect on 125IUdR uptake was similar in isolated tissues and the whole body following intraperitoneal injection of the tracer. It increased to a maximum of about 135 per cent of control, during exposure times over 30 min. This effect is not explained as a result of a temporary change in the rate of cell proliferation. Vitamin E deficiency caused a depression of activity of TdR-K and of uptake of 125IUdR in bone marrow cells to about 75 per cent of control. This depression was similar to that observed after whole body gamma-irradiation with about 0.01 Gy (1 rad). The inhibitory effects of vitamin E deficiency on TdR-K were overcome by exposure to the magnetic field. Immediately after cessation of the magnetic field for 60 min, 125IUdR uptake was normal; normalization of uptake was delayed with exposure times shorter than 60 min. A 60 min exposure to the magnetic field had no long term effect on turnover of labelled cells in the mice. The data imply the non-specific control of thymidine kinase by charged molecular species and the modification of this control by the magnetic field.  相似文献

Radioimmunoassay techniques have been developed for the assay of thymidine, uridine, deoxyuridine, and deoxycytidine. Plasma levels of the first three nucleosides have been measured, and an upper limit has been determined for the plasma concentration of deoxycytidine. The assays involve displacement of a [3H]pyrimidine nucleoside from the appropriate labeled rabbit immunoglobulin. By assaying a mixture of uridine and deoxyuridine in the presence and absence of borax, the concentrations of both nucleosides have been measured. In seven healthy adults, plasma levels of uridine were 21.1 ± 8.4 μm (mean ± SD) and of deoxyuridine were 0.62 ± 0.39 μm. In cancer patients, thymidine levels were 7.5 ± 2.7 × 10?7m. The upper limit for plasma deoxycytidine levels in six healthy adults was 0.71 ± 0.1 μm.  相似文献

Information was sought on the fate of T cells activated to H2 determinants in vivo. The cells were obtained from thoracic duct lymph of irradiated F1 mice injected with parental strain T cells. The fate of the lymph-borne cells—nearly all of which were donor-cell-derived, host-reactive T blasts (T.TDL)—was studied by labelling the cells with either 3HTdR, 125IUdR or 51Cr and transferring them to syngeneic mice.A large proportion of T.TDL (20%) homed to the intestines on transfer. In the small intestine 40% of the cells were located in Peyer's patches; this was lower than with normal TDL (>70%) but higher than with a population of B (θ-negative) blasts (<10%). Some T.TDL were situated within the surface epithelium of the gut. Studies with 51Cr-labelled cells suggested that a proportion of these cells entered the gut lumen.T.TDL also homed to the large intestine but only when derived from a small inoculum of T cells. T.TDL derived from a large dose of T cells homed preferentially to the small intestine; in this respect they resembled B blasts.Homing to the intestines seemed a general property of T cells activated to transplantation antigens. It was observed irrespective of whether the T.TDL were activated against H2 determinants, M-locus determinants or H2-plus M-locus determinants.Most T.TDL died in the lymphoid tissues within 1–2 weeks of transfer. This conclusion was derived from comparative studies of (a) autoradiographs prepared from recipients of 3HTdR-labelled T.TDL and TDL and (b) the migratory properties of labelled cells harvested from recipients of 51Cr-labelled T.TDL, normal TDL and irradiated TDL. Rapid clearance of radioactivity from recipients of T.TDL labelled with 125IUdR was consistent with this conclusion. Adequate control experiments with this isotope were not possible, however, because attempts to label long-lived lymphocytes (TDL) with 125IUdR were unsuccessful.Studies with a variety of cells labelled with 125IUdR indicated that a proportion of the label was excreted via the stomach. In certain situations, e.g., in mice with tied renal vessels, extremely high counts (>40% of the injected counts) appeared in the stomach contents.  相似文献
