Genotoxicity of diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS) was studied on laboratory mice after intraperitoneal injection with single and repeated
doses. DAS was administrated at three different dose levels (0.5, 0.75, and 1.0 mg/kg body weight). The study was conducted
on both somatic and germ cells additional to the sperm morphology analysis. DAS treatment resulted in a significant reduction
(P<0.01) in mitotic activity at all levels of doses tested, confirming that DAS is a potent protein and DNA synthesis inhibitor.
At somatic cells (bone marrow) both structural and numerical chromosome abnormalities were observed. Single dose treatment
showed significant abnormalities only with high dose treatment. In contrast, at repeated dose similar abnormalities were also
observed with some significance but no systematic relation between the administrated dose and abnormalities ratio could be
settled. In germ cells (testicles), structural and numerical abnormalities were also observed. In general, the frequencies
of scored abnormalities at germ cells were lower than that the somatic cells. Sperm count test revealed a decrease in the
number of released sperm after toxin treatment. Abnormalities of sperm shape (head and tail) were observed, confirming the
positive correlation between cytogenetic damage and sperm abnormality.
The results also proved that DAS is a very toxic mycotoxin, in addition to inducing chromosomal abnormalities, it causes a
severe inhibition of DNA synthesis which subsequently affects the cell cycle and cell division. A good system for good harvesting
practice and good food technology can lower the risk for the consumers. 相似文献

Hormetic and adaptive responses induced by low-level radiation in hematopoietic and immune systems have been observed, as shown by stimulatory effects on cell growth and resistance to subsequent radiation-induced cytogenetic damage. However, in terms of cell death by apoptosis, the effects of low-level radiation are controversial: Some studies showed decreased apoptosis in response to low-level radiation while others showed increased apoptosis. This controversy may be related to the radiation doses or dose rates and also, more importantly, to the cell types. Testes are one of the most radiosensitive organs. The loss of male germ cells after exposure to ionizing radiation has been attributed to apoptosis. In the present study, the effects of low-level radiation at doses up to 200 mGy on mouse male germ cells in terms of apoptosis and the expression of apoptosis-related proteins were examined at different times after whole-body exposure of mice to low-level radiation. In addition, the effect of pre-exposure to low-level radiation on subsequent cell death induced by high doses of radiation was examined to explore the possibility of low-level radiation-induced adaptive response. The results showed that low-level radiation in the dose range of 25-200 mGy induced significant increases in apoptosis in both spermatogonia and spermatocytes, with the maximal effect at 75 mGy. The increased apoptosis is most likely associated with Trp53 protein expression. Furthermore, 75 mGy low-level radiation given pre-irradiation led to an adaptive response of seminiferous germ cells to subsequent high-level radiation-induced apoptosis. These results suggest that low-level radiation induces increased apoptosis in male germ cells but also induces a significant adaptive response that decreases cell death after a subsequent high-dose irradiation. 相似文献

The clastogenicity of cisplatin, cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II), an extensively used antitumor drug, has been studied employing (101/E1 X C3H/E1)F1 mice, aged 12-14 weeks. Chromosomal aberrations were assessed in mitotic divisions of bone marrow cells and differentiating spermatogonia. The drug was tested at 3 doses, 0.5, 1.0 and 2.5 mg/kg and 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 mg/kg, respectively, for bone marrow and spermatogonia. Cisplatin had a clastogenic effect which was dose-dependent in both cell types. The frequencies of aberrant cells increased non-linearly in bone marrow and the dose-response relationship could be best described by a linear-quadratic equation. At the highest dose the affected cells carried multiple aberrations. An average of 2.7 aberrations per aberrant cell was observed 12 h after treatment of the mice with 2.5 mg/kg of cisplatin. In differentiating spermatogonia the dose response for aberrant cells could be described by a linear equation. The damage to the individual affected cell was less dramatic than in bone marrow, averaging 1.4 aberrations per damaged cell at the highest dose tested. Gaps were excluded from these considerations but they generally also showed a dose-related increase. A quantitative comparison of the clastogenic response to cisplatin was based on the dose-response relationships using 2 criteria, the doubling dose and the dose of unit increase (DUI). For both comparisons the general conclusion was that bone marrow cells were twice as sensitive as differentiating spermatogonia to the clastogenic action of cisplatin. 相似文献

Effects of nitrate (doses of 600 and 1200 mg/kg/day during 14 days) and sodium nitrite (60 and 120 mg/kg/day during 14 days) on germ cells of male mice were investigated. The mode of application was stomach intubation. The germ cell stages analysed were spermatids (for the heritable effects) and differentiating and stem-cell spermatogonia (for direct effects).A lack of heritable translocations, sperm abnormalities, as well as morphological changes, such as changes in eyes, coat colour, testes and body weight, was demonstrated in F1 males originating from treated P males. Significant effects in treated males were found with respect to: (1) sex-chromosomal univalency in the diakinesis-methaphase I stage after the treatment of stem spermatogonia (both doses of sodium nitrate and the higher dose of sodium nitrite), (2) sperm-head abnormalities after treatment of differentiating spermatogonia (the higher dose of sodium nitrate and both doses of sodium nitrite), and (3) fertility after treatment of spermatids (the higher dose of sodium nitrite). Nonmutagenic effects and possible carcinogenic potential of the tested doses are discussed. 相似文献

The in vivo genotoxicity of lomefloxacin, a diflourinated antibacterial drug, was evaluated by employing mouse in vivo chromosomal aberration test in bone marrow cells and dominant lethal mutation assay in germ cells. Statistically significant reduction in mitotic index, increase in chromosomal aberrations (CAs)/cell and percent abnormal metaphase was observed only at the highest dose (160 mg/kg b.w.) of the drug. In the dominant lethal mutation assay, a statistically significant decrease in the number of implants/female, compared to vehicle control, was noticed only in the females mated with males treated with 32 mg/kg b.w. during the third week of mating, while statistically significant reduction in live implants/female was noticed at both the doses during the second and third weeks of mating. Nevertheless, no significant change in the number of dead implants/female was observed after lomefloxacin treatment. These results seems to indicate that lomefloxacin is a weak clastogen in the bone marrow cells and non-mutagenic in the germ cells of mouse in vivo. 相似文献

A cytogenetic investigation of murine bone marrow after hydrocortison injection has been made. High doses of hormone (50 mg/kg) provoke deteriorations in bone marrow both in the structure and in the chromosome number. A dose of 5 mg/kg has no such effect. The Koksak A13 virus does not induce cytogenetic deteriorations in mice, however, it is able to produce a big mutagenic effect on the hydrocortison background. The vaccine strain of measles virus -- Leningrad-16 -- also increases its mutagenic action on the bone marrow cell chromsome apparatus of mice affected with hydrocortison. At the same time, in the cell culture of murine kidney, hydrocortison does not induce chromosome deteriorations and even lowers the frequency of cells with deteriorations in the chromosome set during the initial days after injecting the virus culture with measles virus. 相似文献

Clastogenic effects of acrylamide in mouse bone marrow cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Acrylamide, known to induce dominant-lethal mutations (Shelby et al., 1986; Smith et al., 1986) and heritable translocations (Shelby et al., 1987) in rodent germ cells, was hitherto a questionable clastogen in rodent bone marrow (Shiraishi, 1978). Therefore, it was tested for chromosomal aberrations in mouse bone marrow cells, spermatogonia and by the micronucleus test. The intraperitoneally injected doses ranged from 50 to 150 mg/kg. In the chromosomal bone marrow test and the micronucleus assay positive results were obtained with acrylamide, and in the latter test the effect increased linearly with dose. Chromosomal aberrations were not induced in differentiating spermatogonia by the acute acrylamide treatment. Cisplatin was used as a positive control and gave the expected positive response in all 3 tests. The present results demonstrate that acrylamide is no exception among clastogens. It breaks chromosomes not only in mammalian germ cells but also in somatic cells. 相似文献

There is ongoing concern that an assay for germ cell effects in female animals is not available. While transgenic mutation detection systems provide unprecedented access to numerous rodent tissues, studies on the induction of gene mutations in oocytes are still not possible because sufficient numbers of cells cannot be harvested. However, following stimulation of an ovarian follicle, the granulosa cells contained therein divide rapidly, increasing substantially in numbers. Since these granulosa cells share the same environment as the ovum, they may serve as suitable surrogates for the study of exposure of female germ cells to mutagens. Female lacZ transgenic mice (MutaMouse) were treated by intraperitoneal injection of N-ethylnitrosourea (ENU) and subsequently with pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG, 5IU/animal, i.p.) to induce follicular growth. Animals were sacrificed 48 h after the administration of PMSG and granulosa cells and bone marrow were harvested. A comparable dose-related increase in the mutant frequency (MF) of both granulosa and bone marrow cells was observed. The highest dose caused a decrease in the MF of granulosa cells, but not in the bone marrow, suggesting possible greater susceptibility of granulosa cells to ENU toxicity. Doubling dose estimates for bone marrow and granulosa cells were lower than those derived from the literature on oocyte mutation frequency using the Russell specific locus assay, suggesting that both cell types are more sensitive to ENU-induced mutation than oocytes. The results indicate that transgene mutations in granulosa cells may provide a sensitive pre-screening tool for potential genotoxic germ cell effects of exposed oocytes. 相似文献

Effects of ten day long exposure to gamma-irradiation at low doses (mean dose rate of 1.5-2.0 m Gy/day, total dose of 15 m Gy) on hemopoietic (CFU-S) and stromal (CFU-F) progenitor cells from murine bone marrow were examined. The CFU-F content measured as in vitro fibroblastic colony number showed 1.5-4.5-fold increase. Additionally, the size of ectopic marrow transplants evaluated by counting myelokariocytes and CFU-S numbers also increased. No significant changes of CFU-S proliferation rate were found. 相似文献

The influence of serpistene in dose of 5 and 50 mg/kg on chronic low-dose gamma-irradiation (22.6 cGy) effects on cytogenetic (abnormal sperm cell, marrow bone micronucleus) and function and morphology (thyroid and adrenal glands) parameters of mice was estimated. The serpistene modifies effects of gamma-irradiation depends on the administration regime and a dose of the substance. The most expressive radioprotective effect on endocrine organs after serpistene prophylactic administration was found. The prophylactic dose was 5 mg/kg for adrenal gland and both doses--for thyroid gland. The most expressive radioprotective effect on marrow bone cells after serpistene therapeutic administration in a dose of 5 mg/kg was found. The most expressive antimutagenic effect on somatic and germinal cells of prophylactic and therapeutic administration in a dose of 50 mg/kg was found. 相似文献

The secretion of gonadotropins (GtH) in goldfish and carp, is stimulated by GtH-releasing hormone (GnRH) and is inhibited by dopamine. Studies with antidopaminergics have demonstrated to be effective in order to stimulate the spermiation and the ovulation in different species of teleosts. The reserpine, a drug that deplets the dopamine, has shown to stimulate the spermiation in the common carp. We report here, the effects of reserpine on the number and volume of gonadotrophic cells of the common carp. Eight injections of reserpine alone, at doses of 0.5, 1.0 or 1.5 mg/ml/kg of body weight and at intervals of 48 hours, caused an increase in the number and volume of gonadotrophic cells. The dose 0.5 mg/ml/kg, presented an increase in the number and volume of gonadotrophic cells of 382% and 123%, respectively, above the control group. The dose 1.0 mg/ml/kg, showed an enhanced number and volume of gonadotrophic cells of 704% and 152%, respectively. With the dose 1.5 mg/ml/kg increase in number (171%) and volume (106%) of gonadotrophic cells was lower. The gonads of the experimental groups had an abundance of advanced states of spermatogenesis. Our results show that eight intraperitoneal injections of reserpine were responsible for an increase in gonadodrophic cell, number and volume. 相似文献

The aqueous extract of Hemidesmus indicus roots was investigated for its in vivo antigenotoxic effect against cisplatin-induced cytogenetic damage. Swiss albino mice were administered with various doses of the extract either singly (50, 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight) or as split doses (10, 20 and 40 mg/kg bw/day) for five consecutive days by oral gavage. As endpoints, chromosome aberrations, micronuclei in polychromatic erythrocytes, mitotic index and PCE/NCE ratio were estimated. The extract protected the bone marrow cells from cisplatin-induced genotoxicity in an inverse dose-dependent manner. However, the extract was cytotoxic at all doses. But, under split dose regime it conferred a higher level of genoprotection and was not cytotoxic at the lower two doses. The presence of saponins, tannins, phenols, terpenoids, flavonoids and coumarins in the crude extract could explain these effects. 相似文献

Possible mutagenic activity of captan was investigated by in vitro and in vivo cytogenetic studies and by the dominant lethal study in mice. In vitro cytogenetic study with cultured human diploid cells revealed a significant increase in the frequency of cells showing stickiness and a severe mitotic inhibition at concentrations of 3.0 and 4.0 microgram of captan per ml. although no chromosomal aberrations were observed. In in vivo cytogenetic study, no chromosomal aberrations were induced in the bone marrow cells of rats treated orally with captan at a single dose of 500, 1000 or 2000 mg/kg or at five consecutive doses of 200, 400 or 800 mg/kg/day. Dominant lethal study also failed to show any mutation induction after treatment of male mice with daily oral dose of 200 or 600 mg of captan per kg bw for five days. 相似文献

Clastogenic effects of hydroquinone: induction of chromosomal aberrations in mouse germ cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The clastogenic activity of hydroquinone (HQ) in germ cells of male mice was evaluated by analysis of chromosomal aberrations in primary spermatocytes and differentiating spermatogonia. In the first experiment with treated spermatocytes the most sensitive stage of meiotic prophase to aberration induction by HQ was determined. Testicular material was sampled for microscopic analysis of cells in diakinesis-metaphase I at 1, 5, 9, 11, and 12 days after treatment with 80 mg/kg of HQ, corresponding to treated diplotene, pachytene, zygotene, leptotene and preleptotene. The frequencies of cells with structural chromosome aberrations peaked at 12 days after treatment (p less than 0.01). This indicates that the preleptotene when DNA synthesis occurred was the most sensitive stage of meiotic prophase. In the second experiment the dose response was determined 12 days post treatment by applying 2 additional doses of 40 mg/kg and 120 mg/kg. The clastogenic effects induced by 40 and 80 mg/kg were significantly different from the controls (p less than or equal to 0.01) and higher than the results obtained with 120 mg/kg of HQ. A humped dose-effect relationship was observed. In a third experiment the same doses were used to analyse chromosomal aberrations in dividing spermatogonia of mice 24 h after treatment with HQ. All the administered doses gave results statistically different from the control values (p less than or equal to 0.01) and the data were fitted to a linear equation. HQ was found to be clastogenic in male mouse germ cells. It is concluded that the clastogenic effect in male germ cells is of the same order of magnitude as in mouse bone marrow cells. 相似文献

This study was designed to obtain sister-chromatid exchange (SCE) frequencies in bone marrow and spleen cells of mice and Chinese hamsters under in vivo and in vivo/in vitro systems following treatment of animals with varying doses (15-405 micrograms/kg) of triethylenemelamine (TEM). A dose-related SCE response was found in both species, tissues, and systems analyzed following TEM treatment. In vivo, similar responses were noted for both tissues in both species. However, in vivo/in vitro, the response was lower than in vivo and it varied with the tissue. The spleen cells were more sensitive and gave higher numbers of SCEs than bone marrow of both species at the two highest doses tested (135 and 405 micrograms/kg). These differences may be attributed to cell-culturing effects, type of cells analyzed, species and tissue specificities, and pharmacokinetic properties of the chemical. This study lends support to recently established in vivo/in vitro cell culture methodologies employing mice and Chinese hamsters for comparative cytogenetic analysis. 相似文献

Cytogenetic effects of ribavirin on mouse bone marrow 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The micronucleus test and mitotic chromosome analysis were used to study the in vivo mutagenic activity of ribavirin on bone marrow cells of Swiss albino mice. To determine the incidence of micronuclei, mice were injected i.p. twice, at an interval of 24 h. with the drug at doses of 20, 100 and 200 mg/kg. Animals were killed 6 h after the second dose and bone marrow was examined for the presence of micronuclei in developing erythrocytes. Ribavirin significantly (P less than 0.05) induced micronuclei in polychromatic erythrocytes at all doses. A study was conducted to investigate the cytogenetic effect of the drug on mitotic chromosomes. Ribavirin at 200 mg/kg/day was administered to mice for 3 and 5 days. Repeated treatment with the high dose of ribavirin produced a highly significant (P less than 0.02) increase in abnormal metaphase spreads. The results indicate that ribavirin is mutagenic to bone marrow cells of mice as evaluated by the micronucleus test and by chromosome analysis. 相似文献

Diphenylhydantoin was tested in vivo in mice using a variety of cytogenetic endpoints to evaluate its genotoxicity. Injected doses of 125, 250 and 500 mg/kg failed to increase the number of chromosome aberrations in marrow cells at 17 h post-treatment, and 37.5, 75 and 150 mg/kg doses were likewise ineffective at 36 h. SCEs were significantly increased by doses of 125 mg/kg (but not 250 mg) after 23 h and modestly, in relation to dose, at 42 h. No increase in the number of micronuclei among marrow PCEs was seen following single i.v. injections ranging from 0.1 to 20 mg/kg. Three daily i.p. injections of doses up to 70 mg/kg also failed to increase the number of micronuclei in either marrow or peripheral blood PCEs. Some cytotoxic effect was evident following relatively high doses. 相似文献

Low doses of ionizing radiation are known to induce adaptive response (AR), which is characterized in most cases by temporary nature, though the possibility of long-term persistence of AR is not ruled out. In this investigation we studied the effect of low doses of gamma-radiation on both high-dose radiation-induced and spontaneous level of cytogenetic damage throughout the life of mice. SHK male mice 2 months old were used. Priming doses of 0.1 and 0.2 Gy (0.125 Gy/min, gamma-radiation from 60Co) were used. A challenging dose of 1.5 Gy (1 Gy/min) was used in the experiments using a routine AR experimental design. The frequency of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in bone marrow cells of primed, primed and challenged, and control groups was assessed at various times of animal life span. It was shown that: a) single low-dose gamma-irradiation induces a cytogenetic AR which can be revealed at 1, 3, 6, 9, 12 months after priming; b) single low-dose gamma-irradiation decreases the cytogenetic damage to a level below the spontaneous rate at the end of lifetime (20 months) of animals; c) ability to induce adaptive response does not depend on the age of animals at the moment of priming irradiation. In conclusion, the mechanisms underlying AR not only protect from chromosome damage induced by high-dose irradiation but also may play a role in spontaneous mutagenesis during aging of animals. 相似文献

The cytogenetic effects of intraperitoneally (i.p.) and subcutaneously (s.c.) administered nitrogen mustard (HN2) and cytosine arabinoside (ara-C) on bone-marrow and ascites tumour cells of mice were studied. Ehrlich ascites tumour-bearing mice were treated with the mutagens, and cytological preparations were made from ascites tumour and bone-marrow cells of the same animal. The following parameters were investigated: frequencies of mitotic and chromosomal aberrations, time of aberration maxima and aberration spectra.HN2 (0.68 mg/kg b.w.), when given i.p., induced in ascites tumour cells a strong inhibition of mitotic frequency and very high aberration rates, whereas in bone marrow no aberrant chromosomes were observed. On the other hand, after s.c. administration, the same dose induced more aberrant metaphases in bone marrow than in tumour cells.Ara-C (315 mg/kg b.w.) resulted, after s.c. administration, in higher aberration frequencies both in ascites and bone-marrow cells compared with i.p. treatment. All ascites tumour cells showed higher aberration frequencies than bone-marrow cells. In bone marrow the aberration maximum occurred as soon as 6 h after treatment. Furthermore, clear differences with respect to the types of aberration found in the two systems were evident. The differences caused by the different modes of administration in two different types of cell are discussed in terms of metabolic inactivation and differences of the two tissues with respect to karyotype, cell cycle time and repair capacity. 相似文献
