The effect of the radiosensitizer misonidazole (Ro-07-0582) on the formation of thymine base damage of the 5,6-dihydroxydihydrothymine-type by gamma rays was measured under aerobic and hypoxic conditions. HeLa cells, prelabeled with [methyl-3H]thymidine, were suspended in phosphate-buffered saline in the presence and absence of misonidazole. Concentrations of misonidazole up to 15 mM were used. The cell suspensions were irradiated at ice temperature with 60Co gamma rays. Dose-response curves under aerobic and hypoxic conditions showed a much depressed base damage formation under hypoxia, which was created by blowing a stream of nitrogen across the cell suspensions for 30 min on ice. The presence of misonidazole had little or no detectable effect under hypoxia. It is concluded that an effect on the level of formation of thymine base damage is not primarily responsible for the radiosensitization by misonidazole under hypoxic conditions. 相似文献

Misonidazole—马蔺子甲素对哺乳动物细胞的辐射增敏作用 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Miso(misonidazole)是[活]体内或体外都很有效的一种辐射增散剂.但是,因为它的神经毒性使临床应用受到限制.近年来,许多研究逐渐倾向于或是降低它的神经毒性或者是提高它的敏化效率两个方面.本文中马蔺子甲素是用做乏氧辐射增敏剂和修饰剂以降低Miso的细胞毒性.CHO细胞用0.5mM的Miso和0.05mM马蔺子甲素综合处理,然后在乏氧或有氧条件下进行X射线照射.实验结果表明,由于马蔺子甲素的加入使乏氧细胞的毒性降低而且在上述条件下求得增敏比为1.27.该值接近仅加入1mMMiso时的1.29数值. 相似文献

A 2-nitroimidazole nucleoside, 1-(2',3'-dideoxy-alpha-D-erythro-hex-2'-enopyranosyl)-2-nitroimida zole (RA-263), has been investigated for its radiosensitization, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity properties. The in vitro radiosensitization tests against hypoxic Chinese hamster (V-79) cells demonstrated that RA-263 was a more potent radiosensitizer than misonidazole and at 2 mM concentration approached the oxic curve. Significant in vitro radiosensitization activity was also observed in EMT6 mammary tumor cells. The in vitro cytotoxicity data suggested that RA-263 is considerably more toxic to hypoxic cells than misonidazole. The increased cytotoxicity may be related to its higher depletion of nonprotein thiols (NPSH) than misonidazole. The combined effects of radiosensitization and hypoxic cell toxicity were measured by preincubation of the V-79 cells for 4 h under hypoxic conditions before irradiation. The results demonstrated a synergistic response by causing a significant decrease in the extrapolation number with loss of shoulder of the radiation survival curves. The in vivo radiosensitization experiments conducted by the in vivo-in vitro cloning assay with the EMT6 mammary tumor indicate that RA-263 is an effective sensitizer. Pharmacokinetic data suggested that RA-263 was eliminated from plasma by a rapid alpha phase and a slower beta phase with T 1/2 of 36 and 72 min, respectively. The concentration in the brain was approximately one-sixth of tumor concentration, suggesting that RA-263 is excluded from the CNS. Moreover, RA-263 was two times less toxic than misonidazole on equimolar basis by acute LD50 tests. This agent was also significantly less mutagenic than misonidazole in a strain of Escherichia coli. 相似文献

Formation of strand-breaks in DNA and its repair in Yoshida ascites tumor cells exposed to gamma radiation (100-400 Gy) in presence and absence of misonidazole (10 mM) were studied. The methodology involved pre-labelling of cellular DNA by 3H-thymidine during cell proliferation in rats, irradiation of cells in vitro and analysing sedimentation profile of DNA by ultracentrifugation in alkaline sucrose density gradients. Irradiation under euoxic conditions resulted in formation of about 1.5 times greater number of strand breaks as compared to those formed during irradiation under hypoxic conditions. Misonidazole (10 mM) by its presence along with the cells during irradiation under hypoxic conditions caused a 3-fold increase in the number of single strand breaks, but under euoxic conditions of irradiation the presence of misonidazole did not enhance the strand break formation. Incubation of cells irradiated in absence of misonidazole for 1 hr in tissue culture medium at 37 degrees C resulted in repair of substantial fraction of the strand breaks while there was no repair of the DNA strand breaks in cells irradiated in the presence of the chemical. 相似文献

The nitroimidazole-linked phenanthridines 2-NLP-3 (5-[3-(2-nitro-1-imidazoyl)-propyl]-phenanthridinium bromide) and 2-NLP-4 (5-[3-(2-nitro-1-imidazoyl)-butyl]-phenanthridinium bromide) are composed of the radiosensitizer, 2-nitroimidazole, attached to the DNA intercalator phenanthridine by a 3- and 4-carbon linker, respectively. Previous in vitro assays showed both compounds to be 10-100 times more efficient as hypoxic cell radiosensitizers (based on external drug concentrations) than the untargeted 2-nitroimidazole radiosensitizer, misonidazole (Cowan et al., Radiat. Res. 127, 81-89, 1991). Here we have used a (32)P postlabeling assay and 5'-end-labeled oligonucleotide assay to compare the radiation-induced DNA damage generated in the presence of 2-NLP-3, 2-NLP-4, phenanthridine and misonidazole. After irradiation of the DNA under anoxic conditions, we observed a significantly greater level of 3'-phosphoglycolate DNA damage in the presence of 2-NLP-3 or 2-NLP-4 compared to irradiation of the DNA in the presence of misonidazole. This may account at least in part for the greater cellular radiosensitization shown by the nitroimidazole-linked phenanthridines over misonidazole. Of the two nitroimidazole-linked phenanthridines, the better in vitro radiosensitizer, 2-NLP-4, generated more 3'-phosphoglycolate in DNA than did 2-NLP-3. At all concentrations, phenanthridine had little effect on the levels of DNA damage, suggesting that the enhanced radiosensitization displayed by 2-NLP-3 and 2-NLP-4 is due to the localization of the 2-nitroimidazole to the DNA by the phenanthridine substituent and not to radiosensitization by the phenanthridine moiety itself. 相似文献

The effect of varying octanol: water partition coefficients, P, (range 0.026-260) on the uptake of uncharged 2-nitroimidazoles into Chinese hamster V79 379A cells has been studied. Average intracellular concentrations were measured by high performance liquid chromatography after centrifuging cells through oil or an aqueous medium. The ratio of intracellular concentration of radiosensitizer to extracellular concentration (Ci/Ce) for misonidazole (P = 0.43) was 0.85 for the oil method and 0.68 for the aqueous method. For values of P less than about 0.05 uptake was initially very slow and Ci was always less than Ce. When P greater than or equal to 0.1 uptake was rapid and then remained unchanged for times up to 3 h; for P greater than or equal to 10, Ci/Ce increased rapidly as P increased. Ro 31-1405 (P = 260) concentrated by a factor of 7 inside the cell. Although uptake was identical for cells suspended in full growth medium and PBS, radiosensitization was greater for cells in PBS: 1 mmol dm-3 misonidazole produced an enhancement ratio of 1.6 in full growth medium and 1.9 in PBS. This increase in radiosensitization could not be accounted for by protein binding. However, measurements on cellular non-protein sulphydryl (NPSH) demonstrated the levels to be reduced to about 60 per cent for cells in PBS. Similar reductions in NPSH levels have previously been shown not to increase the radiosensitivity of control cells but to increase greatly the effectiveness of nitroimidazole radiosensitizers. 相似文献

The hypoxic radiosensitizer misonidazole decreases survival in dense cultures of HeLa cells irradiated with gamma rays in a non-dose modifying fashion. Survival curves of treated hypoxic cells display a much larger extrapolation number than untreated cells. In oxygenated randomly dividing cells, drug treatment has an effect opposite to that in hypoxic cells, increasing survival. In cultures initiated from mitotic cells and irradiated soon afterwards, a smaller sensitization under hypoxia and no increase in survival of oxygenated cells was observed. It was concluded that metabolic as well as radiochemical events take place in misonidazole-treated and then irradiated HeLa cells which modify survival. 相似文献

Targeting of electron-affinic radiosensitizers to DNA via noncovalent binding (e.g., intercalation) may offer the potential for increasing sensitizing efficiency. However, it has been suggested that high-affinity DNA binding may compromise sensitization by restricting the mobility of sensitizers along the DNA, and by decreasing rates of extravascular diffusion in tumors. The weak DNA intercalator nitracrine (1-NC) is a more efficient radiosensitizer than related nitroacridines with higher DNA-binding affinities (Roberts et al., Radiat. Res. 123, 153-164, 1990). The present study investigates whether electron-affinic agents of even lower DNA-binding affinity may be superior to nitroacridines. The quinoline analog of 1-NC, 5-nitraquine (5-NO), was shown to have an intrinsic association constant for calf thymus DNA in 20 mM phosphate buffer which was 12-fold lower than that of 1-NC. 5-Nitraquine was not accumulated as efficiently as 1-NC by AA8 cells, but, despite a similar one-electron reduction potential, was 2- to 3-fold more potent than 1-NC as a hypoxia-selective radiosensitizer in vitro when compared on the basis of average intracellular concentration. Thus the radiosensitizing potency of 5-NQ appears not to be compromised by its low DNA-binding affinity. The cytotoxic mechanisms of 5-NQ and 1-NC appear to be similar (hypoxia-selective formation of DNA monoadducts), but 5-NQ is 1200-fold less potent than 1-NC as a cytotoxin. Despite this advantage, 5-NQ was not active in vivo as a radiosensitizer in SCCVII tumors. This lack of activity appears to be due to its relatively high toxicity in vivo (intraperitoneal LD50 of 105 mumol kg-1 in C3H/HeN mice), high one-electron reduction potential (-286 mV), and rapid metabolism to the corresponding amine in mice. The in vitro therapeutic index (hypoxic radiosensitizing potency/aerobic cytotoxic potency) of this weak DNA binder was lower than that of the non-DNA targeted radiosensitizer misonidazole, suggesting that DNA targeting enhances cytotoxicity more than radiosensitization. Development of useful DNA-targeted radiosensitizers may require the exploitation of DNA binding modes different from those of the nitroacridines and nitroquinolines. 相似文献

The spectrophotometric method was used to study the rate of chemical reduction of misonidazole and metronidazole by NH4Cl and Zn in the atmosphere of argon and oxygen. Reduction of drugs increased their toxicity for hypoxic and oxygenated E. coli B/r. The reduced metronidazole is a more effective radiosensitizer of hypoxic E. coli B/r than the original compound. 相似文献

Buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) has been used to deplete glutathione (GSH) in V79-379A cells in vitro, and the effect on the efficiency of oxygen and misonidazole (MISO) as radiosensitizers has been determined. Treatment with 50 or 500 microM BSO caused a rapid decline in GSH content to less than 5% of control values after 10 hr of exposure (t1/2 = 1.6 hr). Removal of BSO resulted in a rapid regeneration of GSH after 50 microM BSO, but little regeneration was observed over the subsequent 10-hr period after 500 microM. Treatment with either of these two concentrations of BSO for up to 14 hr did not affect cell growth or viability. Cells irradiated in monolayer on glass had an oxygen enhancement ratio (OER) of 3.1. After 10-14 hr pretreatment with 50 microM BSO, washed cells were radiosensitized by GSH depletion at all oxygen tensions tested. The OER was reduced to 2.6, due to greater radiosensitization of hypoxic cells than aerated ones by GSH depletion. GSH depletion had the effect of shifting the enhancement ratio vs pO2 curve to lower oxygen tensions, making oxygen appear more efficient by a factor of approximately 2, based on the pO2 required to give an OER of 2.0. In similar experiments performed with MISO, an enhancement ratio of 2.0 could be achieved with 0.2 mM MISO in anoxic BSO-pretreated cells, compared to 2.7 mM MISO in non-BSO-treated cells. Thus MISO appeared to be more efficient in GSH-depleted cells by a factor of 13.5. These apparent increases in radiosensitizer efficiency in GSH-depleted cells could be explained on the basis of radiosensitization of hypoxic cells by GSH depletion alone (ER = 1.29-1.41). The effect of GSH depletion was approximately equal at all sensitizer concentrations tested, except at high oxygen tensions, where the effect was insignificantly small. These results are consistent with hypoxic cell radiosensitization by GSH depletion and by MISO or oxygen acting by separate mechanisms. 相似文献

The modification effect of the anoxic radiosensitizer TAN on the mutagenesis in various Salmonella tester strains after gamma-ray and helium ion irradiation was studied. The oxygen enhancement ratios (OER) for all 3 strains on the lethal assay after gamma-irradiation are approximately equal to 2. The induction of reversions in TA98 and TA100 does not modify under anoxia. The value of OER on the mutagenic assay in TA102 equals 1.6. The OER after helium ion irradiation on the lethal and mutagenic assays was less than after gamma-irradiation. The mutagenesis in 3 strains after irradiation under anoxia is enhanced by TAN. The value of the TAN modification effect after gamma-irradiation increases from 2.1 +/- 0.2 for TA102 to 5.2 +/- 0.4 for TA100. However, the TAN influence on mutagenesis in TA100 after helium ion irradiation decreases to 3.1 +/- 0.3. We conclude that peculiarities of mutagenesis in various tester strains under anoxia with TAN can be explained by considering the nature of premutational DNA damages. 相似文献

The cytotoxic and radiosensitizing effects of misonidazole have been studied on glutathione synthetase deficient fibroblasts and on their controls. At any concentration from 0.1 to 4 mM, deficient cells are more sensitive to the cytotoxic effect of misonidazole than the control cells. The differential effect between the two cell strain concerns both the shoulder and the slope of the survival curve, thus suggesting that NPSH play a role in the determination of misonidazole cytotoxicity. Like oxygen, misonidazole clearly sensitizes deficient cells to a lesser extent than control cells. For both cell strains, the maximum sensitizing effect of misonidazole is very close to that of oxygen (1.5 and 1.5 for deficient cells, 2.8 and 2.9 for control cells, respectively). The sensitizing effect of misonidazole appears in the same concentration range for both cell strains, with a maximal effect at lower concentrations for deficient cells. 相似文献

A study has been made of methods for rapidly inactivating cells of E. coli at neutral pH to prevent enzymatic, chemical, or physical modification to DNA damaged by irradiation. The radiation was delivered in a fraction of a second using an electron accelerator. Cell inactivation was with ethanol or a solution (CSE) containing detergent, EDTA, and chloroform. It was found that DNA could be released from irradiated and inactivated cells simply by incubating them with the protease Pronase, and this DNA appeared to be in a form suitable for centrifugational analysis in neutral sucrose gradients. When cells were irradiated in the presence of oxygen, inactivation with ethanol gave a radiation-induced double-strand break (dsb) yield 1.8-fold higher than when inactivation was with CSE. Possible explanations of this are discussed. Using CSE inactivation, an oxygen enhancement ratio for dsb formation of 4.3 was observed and yields of dsb per Gray were in good agreement with results from other laboratories. At concentrations which enhanced cell killing 2.6-fold the "electron-affinic" type anoxic radiosensitizer misonidazole enhanced dsb formation 2.0-fold, whereas the nitroxyl free radical anoxic radiosensitizer norpseudopelletierine-N-oxyl had no significant effect on dsb yield although there was a possible slight enhancement at the higher doses used. 相似文献

The radiosensitization of Chinese hamster V79 cells in vitro by air and misonidazole at low X-ray doses (0.2-6.0 Gy) had been studied. These survival data, together with high-dose data, were fitted to the linear quadratic model ln S = -(alpha D + beta D2), deriving estimates of alpha and beta by six different methods to illustrate the influence of the statistical treatment on the values so derived. This in vitro study clearly demonstrated that the survival parameters alpha and beta are dependent to some degree on the method of analysis of the raw survival data; however, their ratios, the values of oxygen enhancement ratios (OERs) and radiosensitizer enhancement ratios (SERs) derived from the different methods, are similar. All methods of analysis give reduced OERs at low radiation doses for combined low- and high-dose X-ray data. However, the OERs are still appreciably high, ranging from 2.45 to 2.50 for an oxic dose of 2 Gy. All methods of analysis gave reduced SERs at low doses for combined low and high X-ray dose data for hypoxic cells irradiated in 1 mmol dm-3 misonidazole. At survival levels corresponding to doses of 2 Gy in the presence of 1 mmol dm-3 misonidazole and SERs ranged from 1.2 to 1.5. 相似文献

The effect of the addition of radiosensitizers to low-dose total-body irradiation was studied. SR2508 (1 g/kg) or misonidazole (0.35 g/kg) was given 30 min prior to single-dose total-body irradiation, delivered at 0.1 Gy/min. Six dogs received either SR2508 or misonidazole and 2 Gy irradiation, and 14 dogs served as controls, receiving no drug and either 2 or 3 Gy of total-body irradiation. All dogs had a decline in their white blood cell and platelet counts and were supported with prophylactic antibiotics and platelet transfusions. High plasma levels of both radiosensitizers were achieved. The degree of cytopenia with 2 Gy total-body irradiation when combined with either radiosensitizer was not significantly greater than that seen with 2 Gy alone, and the neutropenia was significantly less than that seen with 3 Gy alone. The only observed toxicity of the drugs was vomiting, which started shortly after the infusion of SR2508 and before the radiation treatment. A single high-dose infusion of a radiosensitizer combined with total-body irradiation appears to cause a mild increase in bone marrow toxicity but is otherwise well tolerated. 相似文献

Using an automated low dose survival assay, the radiosensitizing effectiveness of misonidazole at low radiation dose (0-6 Gy) was measured in cultured mammalian cells. Also measured was its effectiveness at high doses of radiation (0-35 Gy) using the conventional survival assay. In both cases, several concentrations of the drug from 0 to 5 mM were used. The data at low doses were analyzed by a two-parameter mathematical equation with linear and quadratic dose terms, S = e-alpha D-beta D2, which proved to be a good fit to the experimental data at all misonidazole concentrations. It is shown that whereas the coefficient of the quadratic dose term, beta, increases significantly with increasing misonidazole concentration, the drug does not significantly affect the coefficient of the linear term, alpha. The enhancement ratio (ER) of misonidazole is shown to be decreased at lower doses. The clinical implications of this result are discussed. 相似文献

The radiosensitivity of spermatogonia was found to be greater by up to a factor of 2 in C3H mice than in B6D2F1 mice, whether assessed for the highly sensitive spermatogonia (types A2 to In) or the much more resistant clonogenic spermatogonia which repopulate tubules. The latter were similarly resistant in the B6D2F1 hybrid and in the DBA2 parent, but were much more sensitive in the C57BL parent strain. A difference in sensitivity by up to a factor of 2 results in a variation by a factor of 10 or more in the level of survival of clonogenic cells after high doses. This variation is also observed when comparing data in the literature from different authors using various strains of mice. Using the radiosensitizer misonidazole, it was shown that hypoxia did not play a major role in the lesser sensitivity demonstrated in B6D2F1 mice. The variation in sensitivity is similar to the range reported in the literature for reciprocal translocations. 相似文献

A new type of hypoxic cell sensitizer (FNT-series compounds) has been developed and tested on HeLa S3 cells. They have two nitrobenzoyl groups at both ends of the spermine or spermidine in their chemical structures. Their ability to sensitize hypoxic cells is greater than that of misonidazole. Among them, N1, N10-bis(4-nitrobenzoyl)-spermidine (FNT-1) was most effective. 1 mM FNT-1 gave a corrected enhancement ratio of 1.71 compared to 1.32 for the same concentration of misonidazole. Its electron affinity, in terms of the half-wave reduction potential, was - 350 mV and higher than that of misonidazole (-395 mV). These FNT-series compounds are thought to interact with DNA in two ways; noncovalent linkage between the basic groups of the polyamine and highly acidic phosphate moieties of the nucleic acid and, secondly, the insertion of the nitrobenzoyl groups between base pairs of the DNA double helix. Since spermine and spermidine themselves did not show any sensitizing activities, it is suggested that the nitrobenzoyl groups which are introduced in spermine and spermidine, play an important role in sensitization. 相似文献

Chinese hamster cells (V79) and glutathione-proficient (GSH+/+) and glutathione-deficient (GSH-/-) human fibroblasts were treated with a glutathione (GSH)-depleting agent buthionine sulphoximine (BSO) and the hypoxic radiosensitizer misonidazole (MISO), separately or in combination. Subsequently, the cells were exposed to X-rays. Determination of the yield of single-strand DNA breaks (ssb) immediately after irradiation indicated no effect of BSO or MISO treatment when radiation exposure was made aerobically. Assuming that ssb determined immediately after irradiation reflects mainly the effect of radical processes, the results obtained with BSO and MISO, singly and in combination, agreed well with the predictions of a modified version of the 'competition model' using V79 and GSH+/+ cells. Some results obtained with GSH-/- cells could not be so explained. 相似文献

Targeting radiosensitizers to DNA by attachment of an intercalating group: nitroimidazole-linked phenanthridines 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The nitroimidazole-linked phenanthridine series of compounds (NLP-1, 2, and 3) were synthesized under the assumption that it should be possible to enhance the molar efficiency of 2-nitroimidazoles as hypoxic cell radiosensitizers and cytotoxins by targeting them to their likely site of action, DNA. The targeting group chosen was the phenanthridine moiety, the major component of the classical DNA intercalating compound, ethidium bromide. The sole difference between the compounds is the length of the hydrocarbon chain linking the nitroimidazole to the phenanthridine. The phenanthridine group with a three-carbon side chain, P-1, was also synthesized to allow studies on the effect of the targeting group by itself. The ability of the compounds to bind to DNA is inversely proportional to their linker chain length with binding constant values ranging from approximately 1 x 10(5) mol-1 for NLP-2 to 6 x 10(5) mol-1 for NLP-3. The NLP compounds show selective toxicity to hypoxic cells at 37 degrees C at external drug concentrations 10-40 times lower than would be required for untargeted 2-nitroimidazoles such as misonidazole in vitro. Toxicity to both hypoxic and aerobic cells is dependent on the linker chain: the shorter the chain, the greater the toxicity. In addition, the NLP compounds radiosensitize hypoxic cells at external drug concentrations as low as 0.05 mM with almost the full oxygen effect being observed at a concentration of 0.5 mM. These concentrations are 10-100 times lower than would be required for similar radiosensitization using misonidazole. Radiosensitizing ability is independent of linker chain length. The present compounds represent prototypes for further studies of the efficacy and mechanism of action of 2-nitroimidazoles targeted to DNA by linkage to an intercalating group. 相似文献
