Bleomycin mediates cell wall damage in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Bleomycin treatments in the presence of Fe(II) increased the rate of spheroplast formation by lytic enzymes by 5- to 40-fold. Neither Fe(III) nor other tested ions caused significant cell wall damage in the presence of bleomycin. The effect of bleomycin-Fe(II) on the cell wall mimicked the characteristics of bleomycin-Fe(II)-mediated DNA damage in dependence on aeration, inhibition by ascorbate, and potentiation by submillimolar concentrations of sodium phosphate. Bleomycin-mediated cell wall damage was time and dose dependent, with incubations as short as 20 min and drug concentrations as low as 3.3 x 10(-7)M causing measurable cell wall damage in strain CM1069-40. These times and concentrations are within the range of effectiveness for bleomycin-mediated DNA damage and for the cytotoxicity of the drug. Although Fe(III) was inactive with bleomycin and O2, the bleomycin-Fe(III) complex damaged walls and lysed cells in the presence of H2O2. H2O2 causes similar activation of bleomycin-Fe(III) in assays of DNA scission. These results suggest that an activated bleomycin-Fe-O2 complex disrupts essential cell wall polymers in a manner analogous to bleomycin-mediated cleavage of DNA.  相似文献

The antineoplastic drug bleomycin, when complexed to Fe(II), causes both single- and double-stranded lesions in DNA in vitro. EDTA is commonly used to inhibit the reaction of bleomycin-Fe with DNA, presumably by removing the metal cofactor. In this study, we utilized a simple assay involving the conversion of supercoiled plasmid DNA to the nicked or linear forms to further investigate the ability of bleomycin-Fe to degrade DNA in the presence of EDTA. We found that a 1:1 complex of bleomycin and Fe can degrade plasmid DNA even in the presence of a 10(6) molar excess of EDTA over bleomycin. Furthermore, we found that the half-life for inactivation of bleomycin-Fe by excess EDTA is about 1.5 h. Finally, we demonstrate that excess bleomycin associated with the outer plasma membranes of cells can damage DNA after the cells are lysed in buffers containing EDTA and SDS. These results suggest that EDTA may not be an efficient inhibitor of the reaction of bleomycin-Fe with DNA.  相似文献

The inhibition of Fe(II)-bleomycin activation, by a large excess of DNA, is overcome by rat liver microsomes in the presence of NADPH. This release of inhibition, as indicated by increased yields of base propenal from DNA scission, is enhanced by menadione, is inhibited by superoxide dismutase, and is therefore dependent on superoxide anion. Microsomal activation of Fe(II)-bleomycin doubles the stoichiometry of base propenal yield compared to that obtained upon self-activation of the drug; 0.5 mol of base propenal is formed and 0.5 mol of NADPH is oxidized per mol of Fe(II)-bleomycin. In the presence of a large excess of DNA, Cu(II)-bleomycin is not reduced and Fe(III)-bleomycin is neither reduced nor activated by microsomes in cases where activation of Fe(II)-bleomycin is maximal. We suggest that in vivo, electron transport enzymes at or near the nucleus can stimulate the activation of Fe(II)-bleomycin under conditions where self-activation does not readily occur.  相似文献

Using the pulse radiolysis technique, we have demonstrated that bleomycin-Fe(III) is stoichiometrically reduced by CO2? to bleomycin-Fe(II) with a rate of (1.9 ± 0.2) × 108M?1s?1. In the presence of calf thymus DNA, the reduction proceeds through free bleomycin-Fe(III) and the binding constant of bleomycin-Fe(III) to DNA has been determined to be (3.8 ± 0.5) x 104 M?1. It has also been demonstrated that in the absence of DNA O2?1 reacts with bleomycin-Fe(III) to yield bleomycin-Fe(II)O2, which is in rapid equilibrium with molecular oxygen, and decomposes at room temperature with a rate of (700 ± 200) s?1. The resulting product of the decomposition reaction is Fe(III) which is bound to a modified bleomycin molecule. We have demonstrated that during the reaction of bleomycin-Fe(II) with O2, modification or self-destruction of the drug occurs, while in the presence of DNA no destruction occurs, possibly because the reaction causes degradation of DNA.  相似文献

The bleomycin-mediated digestion of DNA in the presence of ferrous ion, molecular oxygen, and dithiothreitol is characterized by a fast initial reaction, which is followed by a much slower process. The fast degradation is due to the fast activation of the bleomycin-Fe(II) complex and the subsequent fast reaction of the activated complex with DNA. The rate determining step for the slow process is reactivation of the bleomycin-Fe(III) complex. The apparent rate constants for both reactions increase with increasing ionic strength. The latter, unusual results are interpreted in terms of inhibition of bleomycin turnover by binding of cationic species with DNA at low ionic strength.  相似文献

Lipid peroxidation and DNA damage and the relationship between the two events were studied in rat liver nuclei irradiated with low dose UVA. Lipid peroxidation was measured as thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) by spectrophotometric method and as malondialdehyde-TBA adduct by HPLC, and DNA damage was measured as 8-hydroxy-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dGu) and strand breakage (or loss of double-stranded DNA) by a fluorometric analysis of alkaline DNA unwinding method. The results show that UVA irradiation by itself increased nuclear lipid peroxidation but caused little or no DNA strand breakage or 8-OH-dGu. When 0.5 mM ferric (Fe+3) or ferrous (Fe+2) ions were added to the nuclei during UVA irradiation, lipid peroxidation and DNA damage, measured both as 8-OH-dGu and loss of double-stranded DNA, were strongly enhanced. Lipid peroxidation occurred concurrently with the appearance of 8-OH-dGu. Fe3+ ions were reduced to Fe2+ in this UVA/Fe2+/nuclei system. Lipid peroxidation and DNA damage were neither inhibited by scavengers of hydroxyl radical and singlet oxygen nor inhibited by superoxide dismutase and catalase. Inclusion of EDTA or chain-breaking antioxidants, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and diphenylamine (an alkoxy radical scavenger), inhibited lipid peroxidation but not the level of 8-OH-dGu. BHT also did not inhibit the loss of double-stranded DNA in this system. This study demonstrates the reduction of exogenous Fe+3 by UVA when added to rat liver nuclei, and, as a result, oxidative damage is strongly enhanced. In addition, the results show that DNA damage is not a result of lipid peroxidation in this UVA/Fe2+/nuclei system.  相似文献

The bleomycin-iron complexes with CO, NO, C2H5NC, OH-, N-3, CN-, and CH3NH2 were characterized by electronic, ESR, 1H-NMR, and M?ssbauer spectroscopies and the findings were compared with the corresponding hemoprotein complexes. The 1H-NMR and M?ssbauer features for the CO and C2H5NC adducts of the bleomycin-Fe(II) complex are consistent with an S = 0 ferrous assignment. The OH-, CH3NH2, and N-3 adducts of the bleomycin-Fe(III) complex show the ESR, 1H-NMR, and M?ssbauer spectra typical of a low-spin Fe(III). The unique M?ssbauer parameters of the bleomycin-Fe(II)-NO complex demonstrate mixing between the NO pi- and the Fe 3d-orbitals. The magnitude of the proton chemical shifts over +/- 50 ppm indicates a high-spin ferric type for the bleomycin-Fe(III)-CN complex. The M?ssbauer parameters (delta EQ = 0.89 and delta = 0.48 mm/s) of the CN- adduct differ substantially from those of typical low-spin hemoprotein-cyanide complexes. Except for the CN- adduct, the M?ssbauer and crystal field parameters of these bleomycin-iron complexes are similar to those of the corresponding hemoprotein complexes.  相似文献

1. Effects of various OH scavengers, superoxide dismutase and catalase on the formation of malondialdehyde-like products from DNA by bleomycin-Fe2+ were studied. In no case was a protective effect observed. 2. These results can be interpreted on the basis that a crypto-OH radical mediates the damage to DNA by bleomycin-Fe2+.  相似文献

A spectrophotometric study of the reduction of the Fe3+ microperoxidase-8-aniline (Fe3+-MP-8-An) complex has been carried out. Addition of NADH to a solution of Fe3+-MP-8-An under strictly anerobic conditions results in the formation of a species with lambda max = 414 nm (Fe3+-MP-8-An lambda max 407 nm). The kinetics of formation of this species show an induction period (tau) which follows saturation kinetics with respect to [aniline] with Km(app) = 2.2 x 10(-3) mol dm-3, i.e., close to that obtained in the preceding paper from O2 consumption kinetics mediated by MP-8. Addition of an anerobic solution of the NADH reduced MP-8-An complex, to a saturated O2 solution at pH 12 in the presence of 0.5 mM NADH and aniline 10 mM results in the virtual elimination of the induction phase, which has previously characterized O2 consumption kinetics in ferriprotoporphyrin IX oxygen activation systems. The Arrhenius activation energy for the reduction of the Fe3+-MP-8-An complex is close to that observed for the first reductive step in the cyt P-450 O2 activation cycle. Anerobic reduction of Fe3+-MP-8 by sodium dithionite in 20% MeOH/Aq at pH 8 followed by anerobic titration of the Fe2+-MP-8 (lambda max 420.5 nm) with aniline at pH 12 gives rise to a species lambda max 415 with KD for the process = 4.4 x 10(-3) mol dm-3 (+/- 1.2 x 10(-3) mol dm-3).  相似文献

The prominent DNA breakages of bleomycin-Mn complex system were induced by reductant, hydrogen peroxide and ultraviolet light, and these three induction systems gave remarkably similar nucleotide sequence cleavage modes. The preferred DNA cleavage sites at guanine-cytosine(5'----3') and guanine-thymine(5'----3') sequences were appreciably comparable to those of the corresponding bleomycin-Fe complex systems, but not identical. In contrast, the bleomycin-Co complex system significantly degraded isolated DNA only by irradiation of ultraviolet light. The present results provide valuable information on the role of transition metals on DNA cleavage reaction of bleomycin.  相似文献

Release of free bases from calf thymus DNA upon irradiation in aerated 0.1 mol dm-3NaClO4 at pH 7 has been measured by HPLC and shown to be markedly influenced by the presence of thiols during irradiation. The ability of thiols to protect DNA was shown to depend upon the net charge (Z) at pH 7 in the order WR 1065 (Z = +2) greater than cysteamine (Z = +1) greater than 2-mercaptoethanol (Z = 0) approximately equal to dithiothreitol (Z = 0) greater than GSH (Z = -1) approximately equal to 2-mercaptoethanesulfonic acid (Z = -1) approximately equal to 2-mercaptosuccinate (Z = -2). A similar dependence of protection upon net charge was found for disulfides: cystamine (Z = +2) greater than 2-mercaptoethyl disulfide (Z = 0) greater than GSSG (Z = -2). Protection by WR 1065, but not by 2-mercaptoethanol or GSH, was found to decrease significantly with increasing ionic strength. Protection by WR 1065 and GSH was not markedly dependent upon pH between pH 6 and 8. The results are explained in terms of electrostatic interaction of the thiols with DNA, leading to high concentrations of cations near DNA, which allow them to scavenge hydroxyl radicals and repair DNA radicals effectively and to low concentrations of anionic thiols near DNA, which limit their effectiveness as protectors. Poly(dG,dC) and calf thymus DNA exhibited comparable release of G and C upon changing from 0.1 to 0.7 mol dm-3 MgSO4. Since this change causes poly(dG,dC), but not calf thymus DNA, to undergo a change from the B-form to the Z-form of DNA, both forms must have a comparable susceptibility to radiation-induced base release.  相似文献

The aerobic redox reaction of Fe(III)bleomycin (Blm) and ascorbate was examined in the absence of DNA and in the presence of 7.5 and 25 calf thymus DNA base pairs per-drug molecule, in order to investigate the effect of DNA binding on the properties of FeBlm activation and DNA strand cleavage. Under these successive conditions, the rate of initial reduction of Fe(III)Blm became progressively slower and biphasic. Using 7.5 base pairs per-molecule of FeBlm, 2-3 times as much drug reacted in the faster step as with the larger DNA to drug ratio. In each case, the more rapid process was identified with the reaction of high spin Fe(III)Blm-DNA. With the smaller ratio, dioxygen consumption, formation of HO(2)-Fe(III)Blm-DNA, and production of DNA strand breaks as measured by the formation of base propenal were largely rate limited by the initial reaction of ascorbate with Fe(III)Blm-DNA. After a burst of reaction with the larger ratio of base pairs to Fe(III)Blm, a small fraction of the total Fe(III)Blm, representing high spin Fe(III)Blm, entered a steady state as HO(2)-Fe(III)Blm-DNA. Thereafter, reaction of dioxygen and base propenal formation occurred slowly with similar first-order rate kinetics. In order to explain these results, it is hypothesized that the metal domain-linker of Fe(III)Blm adopts two conformations with respect to DNA. One, at specific binding sites, is relatively unreactive with ascorbate. The other, present at non-specific sites as HPO(4)-Fe(III)Blm, is readily reactive with ascorbate to generate HO(2)-Fe(III)Blm-DNA. At the larger base pair to drug ratio, movement of Fe(III)Blm between specific and non-specific sites to generate HO(2)-Fe(III)Blm is a necessary part of the mechanism of strand scission.  相似文献

Iron (2+ and 3+) is believed to transfer through the three-fold channels in the ferritin shell during iron deposition and release in animal ferritins. However, the rate of iron transit in and out through these channels has not been reported. The recent synthesis of [Fe(CN)6]3-, Prussian Blue (PB) and desferrioxamine (DES) all trapped within the horse spleen ferritin (HoSF) interior makes these measurements feasible. We report the rate of Fe2+ penetrating into the ferritin interior by adding external Fe2+ to [Fe(CN)6]3- encapsulated in the HoSF interior and measuring the rate of formation of the resulting encapsulated PB. The rate at which Fe2+ reacts with [Fe(CN)6]3- in the HoSF interior is much slower than the formation of free PB in solution and is proceeded by a lag period. We assume this lag period and the difference in rate represent the transfer of Fe2+ through the HoSF protein shell. The calculated diffusion coefficient, D approximately 5.8x10(-20) m2/s corresponds to the measured lag time of 10-20 s before PB forms within the HoSF interior. The activation energy for Fe2+ transfer from the outside solution through the protein shell was determined to be 52.9 kJ/mol by conducting the reactions at 10 approximately 40 degrees C. The reaction of Fe3+ with encapsulated [Fe(CN)6]4- also readily forms PB in the HoSF interior, but the rate is faster than the corresponding Fe2+ reaction. The rate for Fe3+ transfer through the ferritin shell was confirmed by measuring the rate of the formation of Fe-DES inside HoSF and an activation energy of 58.4 kJ/mol was determined. An attempt was made to determine the rate of iron (2+ and 3+) transit out from the ferritin interior by adding excess bipyridine or DES to PB trapped within the HoSF interior. However, the reactions are slow and occur at almost identical rates for free and HoSF-encapsulated PB, indicating that the transfer of iron from the interior through the protein shell is faster than the rate-limiting step of PB dissociation. The method described in this work presents a novel way of determining the rate of transfer of iron and possibly other small molecules through the ferritin shell.  相似文献

Unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDSox) and lipid peroxidation (LPO) induced by non-enzymatic activation of molecular oxygen (Fe2+ +H2O2) were measured in human peripheral lymphocytes from healthy volunteers. The effect of paracetamol (PC) in a final concentration range of 0.05-10 mmole/l on these oxidative processes and on DNA repair induced by MNNG (UDSmut) was investigated. The level of induced LPO was measured by the thiobarbituric acid assay, UDSox and UDSmut were determined by scintillometric measurement of incorporated [methyl-3H]thymidine into damaged DNA. PC at concentrations lower than 1 mmole/l significantly potentiates the non-enzymatically induced LPO and UDSox with the maximum of the activation being around 0.1 mmole/l. In contrast, PC at concentrations higher than 1 mmole/l exhibits an inhibitory effect on both LPO and UDSox. On the other hand, concentrations higher than 1 mmole/l significantly suppressed DNA-repair synthesis induced by MNNG.  相似文献

Metallothionein (MT) is a strong antioxidant, due to a large number of thiol groups in the MT molecule and MT has been found in the nucleus. To investigate whether MT can directly protect DNA from damage induced by hydroxyl radical, the effects of MTs on DNA strand scission due to incubation with ferric ion-nitrilotriacetic acid and H2O2 (Fe3+ -NTA/H2O2) were studied. The Fe3+-NTA/H2O2 resulted in a higher rate of deoxyribose degradation, compared to incubation of Fe3+/H2O2, presumably mediated by the formation of hydroxyl radicals (*OH). This degradation was inhibited by either Zn-MT or Cd-MT, but not by Zn2+ or Cd2+ at similar concentrations. The Fe3+ -NTA/H2O2 resulted in a concentration dependent of increase in DNA strand scission. Damage to the sugar-phosphodiester chain was predominant over chemical modifications of the base moieties. Incubation with either Zn-MT or Cd-MT inhibited DNA damage by approximately 50%. Preincubation of MT with EDTA and N-ethylmaleimide, to alkylate sulfhydryl groups of MT, resulted in MT that was no longer able to inhibit DNA damage. These results indicates that MT can protect DNA from hydroxyl radical attack and that the cysteine thiol groups of MT may be involved in its nuclear antioxidant properties.  相似文献

The DNA binding sites for the antitumor, antiviral, antibiotics chromomycin, mithramycin, and olivomycin on 70 base pairs of heterogeneous DNA have been determined by using the (methidiumpropyl-EDTA)iron(II) [MPE x Fe(II)] DNA cleavage inhibition pattern technique. Two DNA restriction fragments 117 and 168 base pairs in length containing the lactose operon promoter-operator region were prepared with complementary strands labeled with 32P at the 3' end. MPE x Fe(II) was allowed to partially cleave the restriction fragment preequilibrated with either chromomycin, mithramycin, or olivomycin in the presence of Mg2+. The preferred binding sites for chromomycin, mithramycin, and olivomycin in the presence of Mg2+ appear to be a minimum of 3 base pairs in size containing at least 2 contiguous dG x dC base pairs. Many binding sites are similar for the three antibiotics; chromomycin and olivomycin binding sites are nearly identical. The number of sites protected from MPE x Fe(II) cleavage increases as the concentration of drug is raised. For chromomycin/Mg2+, the preferred sites on the 70 base pairs of DNA examined are (in decreasing affinity) 3'-GGG, CGA greater than CCG, GCC greater than CGA, CCT greater than CTG-5'. The sequence 3'-CGA-5' has different affinities, indicating the importance of either flanking sequences or a nearly bound drug.  相似文献

Salts and polyamines have a variety of effects on the physical properties of DNA, including stabilization against thermal melting. We wished to gain greater insight into the mechanism of this stabilization by ascertaining its effect on the dynamics of base opening and closing reactions, as measured by NMR. Since the binding of spermidine(3+) is influenced by salt, and since spermidine may act as a base catalyst in proton exchange reactions, we have undertaken a study of salt and base catalyst effects on the imino proton exchange kinetics of a model oligomeric DNA. The selective longitudinal NMR relaxation rates of the hydrogen-bonded imino protons of the self-complementary octadeoxyribonucleotide d(GGAATTCC) monitor the rate of the base-catalyzed chemical exchange of these protons with solvent water. The exchange rates thus obtained provide a sensitive measure of the base-pair opening reactions of the DNA duplex. Under conditions of low pH and no added base catalyst, the NMR relaxation rates allow the determination of kd, the rate constant for the dissociation of the octameric duplex into single strands. Titration with the base catalyst tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane allows the determination of kop, the rate constant for the localized opening of individual base pairs, prior to dissociation. A significant Na+ concentration dependence is found for kd. From an analysis of this dependence, it is determined that 0.6 +/- 0.1 sodium ion is released during the dissociation event. The activation energy for helix dissociation (200 +/- 5 kJ/mol) is not dependent on the sodium ion concentration, indicating that the dissociation is entropically driven by the release of bound sodium ions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Damage to the bases in DNA produced by the hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase system in the presence of iron ions was studied. The base products in DNA were measured using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with selected ion monitoring after acidic hydrolysis of DNA and trimethylsilylation. Products identified were cytosine glycol, thymine glycol, 5,6-dihydroxycytosine, 4,6-diamino-5-formamidopyrimidine, 8-hydroxyadenine, 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine, and 8-hydroxyguanine. These are typical hydroxyl radical-induced products of the bases in DNA. 2,6-Diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine was the major product, followed by 8-hydroxyguanine, in DNA treated with hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase/Fe3+-EDTA. The use of Fe3+ did not cause as much damage to the bases in DNA as did the use of Fe3+-EDTA. In both systems, the formation of the products was inhibited by superoxide dismutase, catalase, dimethyl sulfoxide, mannitol, and desferrioxamine, but inhibitions were much stronger in the systems containing EDTA. Hence formation of hydroxyl radicals by a superoxide radical-assisted Fenton reaction is proposed to account for the results obtained. 2,6-Diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine, 5,6-dihydroxycytosine, 4,6-diamino-5-formamidopyrimidine, and 8-hydroxyguanine were proposed as the products in DNA to measure if one aims to measure DNA products as indices of oxidative DNA damage involving hydroxyl radicals in vivo.  相似文献
