The mechanism of cytotoxic action of 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (FdUrd) in mouse FM3A cells was investigated. We observed the FdUrd-induced imbalance of intracellular deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) pools and subsequent double strand breaks in mature DNA, accompanied by cell death. The imbalance of dNTP pools was maximal at 8 h after 1 microM FdUrd treatment; a depletion of dTTP and dGTP pools and an increase in the dATP pool were observed. The addition of FdUrd in culture medium induced strand breaks in DNA, giving rise to a 90 S peak by alkaline sucrose gradient sedimentation. The loss of cell viability and colony-forming ability occurred at about 10 h. DNA double strand breaks as measured by the neutral elution method were also observed in FdUrd-treated cells about 10 h after the addition. These results lead us to propose that DNA double strand breaks play an important role in the mechanism of FdUrd-mediated cell death. A comparison of the ratio of single and double strand breaks induced by FdUrd to that observed following radiation suggested that FdUrd produced double strand breaks exclusively. Cycloheximide inhibited both the production of DNA double strand breaks and the FdUrd-induced cell death. An activity that can induce DNA double strand breaks was detected in the lysate of FdUrd-treated FM3A cells but not in the untreated cells. This suggests that FdUrd induces the cellular DNA double strand breaking activity. The FdUrd-induced DNA strand breaks and cell death appear to occur in the S phase. Our results indicate that imbalance of the dNTP pools is a trigger for double strand DNA break and cell death. 相似文献

The mechanism of deoxyadenosine (dAdo)-induced death of mouse mammary tumor FM3A cells was studied. When the cells were exposed to dAdo at 3 mM, an imbalance of intracellular dNTP pool resulted: dATP concentration was elevated 100-fold and the dGTP concentration was reduced to less than 1% of the control values. The imbalance was followed by breakage of mature DNA. DNA double strand breaks were observed in the dAdo treated cells 12 hr after the administration. We assume that the double strand breaks play an important role in the process of the dAdo-mediated cell death, and that the intracellular dNTP imbalance is the trigger of these events. 相似文献

The mechanism of intracellular deoxyribonucleoside-triphosphate (dNTP) imbalance death of mouse mammary tumor FM3A cells was studied. When the cells were exposed to 5-fluorodeoxyuridine, deoxyadenosine, or 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine, dNTP pool imbalance resulted. The imbalance was followed by DNA double-strand breaks and subsequent cell death. The DNA double strand breaks were directly examined by means of orthogonal-field-alternation gel electrophoresis (OFAGE). Fragmented DNA band appeared to be approximately 100-200 kbp in size. The bases of 5'-termini in the DNA were cytosine and thymine. The imbalance induced endonuclease has been isolated by DEAE-agarose column chromatography. 相似文献

The mechanism of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (FdUR)-induced death of mouse mammary tumor FM3A cells was studied. When the cells were exposed to 5-FU or FdUR, an unbalance of intracellular dNTP pool resulted. The unbalance was followed by breakage of mature DNA. DNA double strand breaks were observed in the FdUR (1 microM) treated cells 16 hrs after the administration. We assume that the double strand breaks play an important role in the mechanism of the FdUR-mediated cell death. In addition, the activity that can induce DNA double strand breaks was detected in the lysate of FdUR treated FM3A cells. Since intracellular dNTP pool unbalance seems to be the trigger of these events, this phenomenon may be termed as dNTP-unbalanced cell death. 相似文献

The mechanism of intracellular deoxyribonucleoside-triphosphates (dNTP) pool imbalance-induced cell death in mouse FM3A (F28-7) cells was studied. When the cells were treated with 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (FdUrd), deoxyadenosine, 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine, or alpha,alpha-bis(2-hydroxy-6-isopropyltropon-3-yl)-4-methoxytolu ene, an imbalance in the cellular dNTP pool was induced. The imbalance was followed by DNA double-strand breaks and subsequent cell death. Fragmented DNA appeared to be approximately 100-200 kbp in size. The base of 5'-termini in the DNA were adenine and thymine. The endonuclease toward double stranded DNA has been found in a fraction of FdUrd treated cell lysate, and isolated using column chromatography. We propose the new mechanism dNTP pool imbalance induced cell death named; dNTP Imbalance Death. 相似文献

The mechanism of intracellular deoxyribonucleotide triphosphates (dNTP) pool imbalance-induced cell death in mouse FM3A cells was studied. When the cells were treated with 1 microM 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (FdUrd), the imbalance of the cellular dNTP pool was induced. The imbalance was followed by DNA double stranded breaks and subsequent cell death. The endonuclease toward double stranded DNA has been found in a fraction of FdUrd treated cell lysate, and isolated using column chromatography. SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed a major protein species of approximate 45 kDa. The endonuclease was revealed, using electrophoretic separation in SDS-polyacrylamide gels containing DNA, by incubating the gels in buffer to remove SDS and to allow renaturation and enzyme activity. 相似文献

The use of particle ion beams in cancer radiotherapy has a long history. Today, beams of protons or heavy ions, predominantly carbon ions, can be accelerated to precisely calculated energies which can be accurately targeted to tumors. This particle therapy works by damaging the DNA of tissue cells, ultimately causing their death. Among the different types of DNA lesions, the formation of DNA double strand breaks is considered to be the most relevant of deleterious damages of ionizing radiation in cells. It is well-known that the extremely large localized energy deposition can lead to complex types of DNA double strand breaks. These effects can lead to cell death, mutations, genomic instability, or carcinogenesis. Complex double strand breaks can increase the probability of mis-rejoining by NHEJ. As a consequence differences in the repair kinetics following high and low LET irradiation qualities are attributed mainly to quantitative differences in their contributions of the fast and slow repair component. In general, there is a higher contribution of the slow component of DNA double strand repair after exposure to high LET radiation, which is thought to reflect the increased amount of complex DNA double strand breaks. These can be accurately measured by the γ-H2AX assay, because the number of phosphorylated H2AX foci correlates well with the number of double strand breaks induced by low or / and high LET radiation. 相似文献

To investigate the mechanism of double strand DNA break formation in mammalian cells, an in vitro assay was established using closed circular DNA containing two uracils on opposite DNA strands (18 and 30 base pairs apart) and extracts prepared from human cells. In this assay, formation of double strand breaks was detected by the conversion of circular DNA to linear DNA. Approximately 4-fold more double strand DNA breaks were produced by extracts from cells deficient in DNA ligase I (46BR) relative to those produced by extracts from control cells (MRC5, derived from a clinically normal individual). In parallel with the amount of double strand DNA breaks, extracts from 46BR cells produced longer repair patches (up to 24 bases in length) than those from MRC5 cells (typically <5 bases long). When purified DNA ligase I was added to 46BR extracts to complement the DNA ligase deficiency, only a negligible difference was found between the amount of doublestrand DNA breaks or the repair patch size generated in the assay relative to MRC5 extracts. Together, our data demonstrate that double strand DNA breaks are produced through formation of DNA repair patches. We refer to this process of double strand break formation as the "DNA repair patch-mediated pathway." 相似文献

This work presents a neutral filter elution method for detecting DNA double strand breaks in mouse L1210 cells after X-ray. The assay will detect the number of double strand breaks induced by as little as 1000 rad of X-ray. The rate of DNA elution through the filters under neutral conditions increases with X-ray dose. Certain conditions for deproteinization, pH, and filter type are shown to increase the assay's sensitivity. Hydrogen peroxide and Bleomycin also induce apparent DNA double strand breaks, although the ratios of double to single strand breaks vary from those produced by X-ray. The introduction of double strand cuts by HpA I restriction endonuclease in DNA lysed on filters results in a rapid rate of elution under neutral conditions, implying that the method can detect double strand breaks if they exist in the DNA. The eluted DNA bands with a double stranded DNA marker in cesium chloride. This evidence suggests that the assay detects DNA double strand breaks. L1210 cells are shown to rejoin most of the DNA double strand breaks induced by 5-10 krad of X-ray with a half-time of about 40 minutes. 相似文献

Accumulation of DNA strand breaks during thymineless death in thymidylate synthase-negative mutants of mouse FM3A cells 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Thymidylate synthase-negative mutants of cultured mouse cells were immediately committed to cell death upon thymidine deprivation, especially when the cells were synchronized in the S phase. Thymidylate deprivation induced single strand breaks in chromosome-size DNA strands, as measured by alkaline sucrose gradient sedimentation, giving rise to two peaks, one with large and the other with small fragments, the latter about the size of T4 DNA. An increase in the small DNA fragments paralleled that of thymineless death. Thymidine deprivation also produced double strand DNA fragments as determined by a method of neutral filter elution, and their extent paralleled that of cell death. Double-stranded DNA eluted through the filter sedimented as a single peak both in a neutral and in an alkaline sucrose gradient that coincided with that of the above small DNA fragments. Therefore, the strand breaks seemed to occur in some defined portions of the genome and in a specific manner compared to breaks induced by x-rays, which occurred rather randomly. Cycloheximide blocked both thymineless death and the production of the small DNA fragments. The strand breaks induced by thymidine starvation were not repaired but instead advanced on subsequent incubation of the cells in growth medium containing thymidine. 相似文献

125I-induced DNA double strand breaks: use in calibration of the neutral filter elution technique and comparison with X-ray induced breaks 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The neutral filter elution assay, for measurement of DNA double strand breakage, has been calibrated using mouse L cells and Chinese hamster V79 cells labelled with [125I]dUrd and then held at liquid nitrogen temperature to accumulate decays. The basis of the calibration is the observation that each 125I decay, occurring in DNA, produces a DNA double strand break. Linear relationships between 125I decays per cell and lethal lesions per cell (minus natural logarithm survival) and the level of elution, were found. Using the calibration data, it was calculated that the yield of DNA double strand breaks after X-irradiation of both cell types was from 6 to 9 X 10(-12) DNA double strand breaks per Gy per dalton of DNA, for doses greater than 6 Gy. Neutral filter elution and survival data for X-irradiated and 125I-labelled cells suggested that the relationships between lethal lesions and DNA double strand breakage were significantly different for both cell types. An attempt was made to study the repair kinetics for 125I-induced DNA double strand breaks, but was frustrated by the rapid DNA degradation which occurs in cells that have been killed by the freezing-thawing process. 相似文献

Repair of idarubicin-induced DNA damage: A cause of resistance? 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Idarubicin, a widely used anticancer drug inhibits topoisomerase (topo) IIalpha and induces DNA double strand breaks. The finding that idarubicin-induced DNA damage is repaired before cell death is initiated encouraged us to examine the role of DNA repair for the cytotoxicity of idarubicin in human promyelocytic HL60 leukaemia cells. We found that DNA double strand breaks induced by a 90 min transient exposure to 0.5 microgml(-1) idarubicin were rapidly repaired throughout the whole population, while topo IIalpha itself was degraded. In spite of DNA repair, the vast majority of cells died within 40 h. Using differential staining of the chromatids and microscopic evaluation of DNA break points, we found evidence for a high number of false ligations of loose DNA strands arising from the inhibition of topo IIalpha action by idarubicin. If mainly actively transcribed genes are affected, this results in a disruption of vital genetic information, of regulatory sequences and, ultimately, in induction of the cell death pathway. Our results confirm the hypothesis that misrepair of DNA damage is a decisive event in idarubicin-induced cell death. They are discussed in the context of topo IIalpha-function and the currently known mechanisms of DNA double strand break repair. 相似文献

Aberrant end joining of DNA double strand breaks leads to chromosomal rearrangements and to insertion of nuclear or mitochondrial DNA into breakpoints, which is commonly observed in cancer cells and constitutes a major threat to genome integrity. However, the mechanisms that are causative for these insertions are largely unknown. By monitoring end joining of different linear DNA substrates introduced into HEK293 cells, as well as by examining end joining of CRISPR/Cas9 induced DNA breaks in HEK293 and HeLa cells, we provide evidence that the dNTPase activity of SAMHD1 impedes aberrant DNA resynthesis at DNA breaks during DNA end joining. Hence, SAMHD1 expression or low intracellular dNTP levels lead to shorter repair joints and impede insertion of distant DNA regions prior end repair. Our results reveal a novel role for SAMHD1 in DNA end joining and provide new insights into how loss of SAMHD1 may contribute to genome instability and cancer development. 相似文献

The topoisomerase IIα inhibitor etoposide is a ‘broad spectrum’ anticancer agent and a potent inducer of DNA double strand
breaks. DNA damage response of mammalian cells usually involves cell cycle arrest and DNA repair or, if unsuccessful, cell
death. We investigated these processes in the human colon cancer cell line HT-29 treated with three different etoposide regimens
mimicking clinically relevant plasma concentrations of cancer patients. Each involved a period of drug-free incubation following
etoposide exposure to imitate the decline of plasma levels between the cycles of chemotherapy. We found a massive induction
of double strand breaks that were rapidly and nearly completely fixed long before the majority of cells underwent apoptosis
or necrosis. An even greater percentage of cells lost clonogenicity. The occurrence of double strand breaks was accompanied
by a decrease in the levels of Ku70, Ku86 and DNA-PKcs as well as an increase in the level of Rad51 protein. Twenty-four hours after the first contact with etoposide we found a
pronounced G2/M arrest, regardless of the duration of drug exposure, the level of double strand breaks and the extent of their repair.
During the subsequent drug-free incubation period, the loss of clonogenicity correlated well with the preceding G2/M arrest as well as with the amount of cell death found several days after exposure. However, it correlated neither with
early apoptosis or necrosis nor with any of the other investigated parameters. These results suggest that the G2/M arrest is an important determinant in the cytostatic action of etoposide and that the removal of DNA double strand breaks
is not sufficient to ensure cell survival. 相似文献

Sanguinarine causes DNA damage and p53-independent cell death in human colon cancer cell lines 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The benzophenanthridine alkaloid sanguinarine has antimicrobial and possibly anticancer properties but it is not clear to what extent these activities involve DNA damage. Thus, we studied its ability to cause DNA single and double strand breaks, as well as increased levels of 8-oxodeoxyguanosine, in human colon cancer cells and found DNA damage consistent with oxidation. Since the tumor suppressor p53 is frequently involved in inducing apoptosis following DNA damage we investigated the effect of sanguinarine in wild type, p53-mutant and p53-null colon cancer cell lines. We found them to be equally sensitive to this plant compound, indicating that cell death is not mediated by p53 in this case. In addition, our observation that apoptosis induced by sanguinarine is initiated very rapidly raised the question whether there is enough time for cellular signaling in response to DNA damage. Moreover, the abundance of double strand breaks is not consistent with only oxidative damage to DNA. We conclude that the majority of DNA double strand breaks in sanguinarine-treated cells are likely the result, rather than the cause, of apoptotic cell death and that apoptosis induced by sanguinarine is independent of p53 and most likely independent of DNA damage. 相似文献

The poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase is an ubiquitous nuclear protein capable of binding specifically to DNA strand breaks. It synthesizes ADP-ribose polymers proportionally to DNA breaks. The actual method of reference to determine DNA double strand breaks is pulsed-field gel electrophoresis, but this requires many cells. It thus appeared of interest to use poly (ADP-ribos) ylation to follow and estimate γ-ray-induced DNA fragmentation at the level of isolated cells after γ-irradiation in chinese hamster ovary cells (CHO-K1). The results obtained by the immunolabelling technique of ADP-ribose polymers were compared to those obtained by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. They show that poly (ADP-ribos)ylation reflects the occurrence of radiation-induced DNA strand breaks. A clear relationship exists between the amount of ADP-ribose polymers detected and DNA double strand breaks after γ-irradiation. 相似文献

Attempted base excision repair of ionizing radiation damage in human lymphoblastoid cells produces lethal and mutagenic double strand breaks 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
A significant proportion of cellular DNA damages induced by ionizing radiation are produced in clusters, also called multiply damaged sites. It has been demonstrated by in vitro studies and in bacteria that clustered damage sites can be converted to lethal double strand breaks by oxidative DNA glycosylases during attempted base excision repair. To determine whether DNA glycosylases could produce double strand breaks at radiation-induced clustered damages in human cells, stably transformed human lymphoblastoid TK6 cells that inducibly overexpress the oxidative DNA glycosylases/AP lyases, hNTH1 and hOGG1, were assessed for their radiation responses, including survival, mutation induction and the enzymatic production of double strand breaks post-irradiation. We found that additional double strand breaks were generated during post-irradiation incubation in uninduced TK6 control cells. Moreover, overproduction of either DNA glycosylase resulted in significantly increased double strand break formation, which correlated with an elevated sensitivity to the cytotoxic and mutagenic effects of ionizing radiation. These data show that attempted repair of radiation damage, presumably at clustered damage sites, by the oxidative DNA glycosylases can lead to the formation of potentially lethal and mutagenic double strand breaks in human cells. 相似文献

DNA strand breaks are produced by a variety of agents and processes such as ionizing radiation, xenobiotics, oxidative metabolism, and enzymatic processing of DNA base damage. One of the major types of strand breaks produced by these processes is a single nucleotide gap terminating in 5'- and 3'-phosphates. Previously, we had developed a method for sequence-specifically producing such phosphate-terminated strand breaks in an oligodeoxynucleotide by way of two photochemically activated (caged) building blocks placed in tandem. We now report the design and synthesis of a single caged building block consisting of 1,3-(2-nitrophenyl)-1,3-propanediol, for producing phosphate-terminated strand breaks, and its use producing such a break at a specific site in a double-stranded circular DNA vector. To produce the site-specific break in a duplex vector, a primer containing the caged single strand break was extended opposite the single strand form of a circular DNA vector followed by enzymatic ligation and purification. The single strand break could then be formed in quantitative yield by irradiation of the vector with 365 nm light. In contrast to a previous study, it was found that the strand break can be repaired by Escherichia coli DNA polymerase I and E. coli DNA ligase alone, though less efficiently than in the presence of the 3'-phosphate processing enzyme E. coli endonuclease IV. Repair in the absence of endonuclease IV could be attributed to hydrolysis of the 3'-phosphate in the presence of dNTP and to a lesser extent to exonucleolytic removal of the 3'-phosphate-bearing terminal nucleotide by way of the 3' --> 5' exonuclease activity of polymerase I. This work demonstrates that specialized 3'-end processing enzymes such as endonuclease IV or exonuclease III are not absolutely required for repair of phosphate-terminated gaps. In addition to preparing single strand breaks, the caged building block described should also be useful for preparing double strand breaks and multiply damaged sites that might otherwise be difficult to prepare by other methods due to their lability. 相似文献
