X-ray irradiation inhibits DNA synthesis and enhances the frequency of sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) in normal human lymphocytes. On the contrary, cells from patients with Down's syndrome, Xeroderma pigmentosum (form II) and progeria, characterized by radioresistant DNA synthesis, do not show such an increase in SCE frequency. We suggest that radiation-induced SCE frequency is a result of inhibition of DNA replication, rather than a direct damage of chromosomes by ionizing radiation. It is in agreement with Painter's /13/ hypothesis according to which SCE are formed due to asynchronous completion of replication in contiguous replicon clusters. So, probability of SCE formation is the more the lower is rate of replication. Thus, the extent of radiation damage cannot be measured directly by the SCE frequency. 相似文献

The rate of DNA synthesis after gamma-irradiation was studied either by analysis of the steady-state distribution of daughter [3H]DNA in alkaline sucrose gradients or by direct assay of the amount of [3H]thymidine incorporated into DNA of fibroblasts derived from a normal donor (LCH882) and from Down's syndrome (LCH944), Werner's syndrome (WS1LE) and xeroderma pigmentosum (XP2LE) patients with chromosomal sensitivity to ionizing radiation. Doses of gamma-irradiation that markedly inhibited the rate of DNA synthesis in normal human cells caused almost no inhibition of DNA synthesis in the cells from the affected individuals. The radioresistant DNA synthesis in Down's syndrome cells was mainly due to a much lower inhibition of replicon initiation than that in normal cells; these cells were also more resistant to damage that inhibited replicon elongation. Our data suggest that radioresistant DNA synthesis may be an intrinsic feature of all genetic disorders showing increased radiosensitivity in terms of chromosome aberrations. 相似文献

A cytogenetic observation, that the sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) occur 3 times more frequently in a special form of xeroderma pigmentosum--XPII than in the norm, prompted a study of DNA replication in this rare disease. Using DNA fiber autoradiography, the rate of fork movement and the frequency of initiation in the adjacent clusters of replicons were estimated. The rate of fork movement was significantly slower than that in classical XP and in normal cells. Here evidence was provided on another defect in DNA replication in XPII that involves a significantly decreased number of simultaneously operating adjacent clusters of replicons, which results in a decreased rate of DNA chain-growth. According to the Painter replication model for SCE, the exchanges arise due to double-strand DNA breaks occurring on the border between two adjacent clusters, respectively, completely and partially replicated. A retarded fork-displacement rate together with a decreased rate of DNA-chain growth may cause this situation to persist longer than in the norm. Thus, our data provide a further support of the replication model for SCE. A similar combination of cytogenetic and molecular defects has been obtained earlier in the Bloom syndrome cells. 相似文献

Using DNA fiber autoradiography we have revealed a new defect earlier unknown in Down's syndrome but analogous to that earlier shown by the authors in AT and basal cell nevus. This syndrome involves a significantly decreased number of simultaneously operating groups of replicons compared to that in normal cells., the rate of fork movement and the fusion of neighbouring units in the group being unchanged. Ionizing radiation (5 Gy) does not change the rate of DNA chain growth in the cells derived from the affected individuals, however, it significantly reduces this parameter in normal cells due to inhibition of replicon initiation in the whole clusters. Thus, radioresistant DNA synthesis in chromosomal instability syndromes may be explained by some defect in DNA replication in unirradiated cells analogous to that in irradiated normal cells. 相似文献

It has been found that irradiation in doses 0.5-2.0 Gy does not enhance the frequency of sister chromatid exchanges in cells of patients with Down's syndrome and ataxia-telangiectasia compared to the normal cells. In the case of ataxia, this phenomenon was accompanied with radioresistant replicative DNA synthesis, whereas in two cases of Down's syndrome the replicative DNA synthesis was found to be as radiosensitive as in the norm. According to these data, the mechanism of sister chromatid exchanges proposed in our previous publication (Pleskach et al., 1988) seems to be rather doubtful. 相似文献

Methylmethanesulphonate has been shown to stimulate an intensive unscheduled DNA synthesis in lymphocytes derived from normal donors as well as in those from patients with xeroderma pigmentosum of the classical form. Somewhat less intensive unscheduled DNA synthesis was observed in cells of a patient suffering from xeroderma pigmentosum. In the case of XPII unscheduled DNA synthesis was greatly reduced which supports the peculiarity of this form of xeroderma pigmentosum. 相似文献

Xeroderma pigmentosum (complementation group D) mutation is present in patients affected by trichothiodystrophy with photosensitivity 总被引:12,自引:1,他引:12

Summary We studied the response to UV irradiation in cells from four patients, from three apparently unrelated families, affected by trichothiodystrophy (TTD). They showed all the symptoms of this rare autosomal recessive disorder (brittle hair with reduced sulfur content, mental and physical retardation, ichthyosis, peculiar face) together with photosensitivity. We found a decreased rate of duplicative DNA synthesis in stimulated lymphocytes, reduced survival in fibroblasts, and very low levels of unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) in Go lymphocytes and fibroblasts after UV irradiation. Complementation studies showed that normal values of UDS are restored in heterokaryons obtained by fusion of TTD cells with normal and xeroderma pigmentosum (XP)-complementation group A-cells. In contrast the defect is not complemented by fusion with XP-complementation group D-fibroblasts. 相似文献

DNA Chain Elongation and Joining in Normal Human and Xeroderma Pigmentosum Cells after Ultraviolet Irradiation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
DNA synthesized in human cells after ultraviolet (UV) irradiation is made in segments of lower molecular weight than in unirradiated cells. Within several hours after irradiation these smaller units are both elongated and joined together. This repair process has been observed in normal human fibroblasts, HeLa cells, and fibroblasts derived from three types of xeroderma pigmentosum patients—uncomplicated with respect to neurological problems, complicated (de Sanctis-Cacchione syndrome), and one with the clinical symptoms of xeroderma pigmentosum but with normal repair replication. The ability of human cells to elongate and to join DNA strands despite the presence of pyrimidine dimers enables them to divide without excising the dimers present in their DNA. It may be this mechanism which enables xeroderma pigmentosum cells to tolerate small doses of UV radiation. 相似文献

The frequency of sister-chromatid exchanges (SCE) was studied in peripheral blood lymphocytes from a xeroderma pigmentosum (form II, XPII) patient. The cells were irradiated with UV or X-rays. In some experiments novobiocin (NB), inhibitor of topoisomerase II, or caffeine (CA), inhibitor of DNA repair were added to the cultures. The level of spontaneous SCE in the patient's lymphocytes was found to be significantly increased in comparison to that in the cells from normal donors. The inhibitors and UV-light caused a rise in the frequency of SCE in the cells taken from normal donors and except for NB, in the lymphocytes from the patient XPII. X-Rays did not increase SCE frequency in normal lymphocytes and lowered it in the patient's cells. SCE frequency rose when inhibitors of DNA replication and repair were used in combination with mutagens. 相似文献

Normal human and xeroderma pigmentosum (XP, excision-defective group A) cells (both SV40-transformed) pulse-labeled with [(3)H]thymidine at various times after irradiation with ultraviolet light showed a decline and recovery of both the molecular weights of newly synthesized DNA and the rates of synthesis per cell. At the same ultraviolet dose, both molecular weights and rates of synthesis were inhibited more in XP than in normal cells. This indicates that excision repair plays a role in minimizing the inhibition of chain growth, possibly by excision of dimers ahead of the growing point. The ability to synthesize normal-sized DNA recovered more rapidly than rates of synthesis in normal cells, but both parameters recovered in phase in XP cells. During recovery in normal cells there are therefore fewer actively replicating clusters of replicons because the single-strand breaks involved in the excision of dimers inhibit replicon initiation. XP cells have few excision repair events and therefore fewer breaks to interfere with initiation, but chain growth is blocked by unexcised dimers. In both cell types recovery of the ability to synthesize normal-sized DNA was prevented by growing cells in caffeine after irradiation, possibly because of competition between the DNA binding properties of caffeine and replication proteins.Our observations imply that excision repair and semiconservative replication interact strongly in irradiated cells to produce a complex spectrum of changes in DNA replication which may be confused with parts of alternative systems such as post-replication repair. 相似文献

DNA-protein cross-linking by ultraviolet radiation was measured in human fibroblasts by an adaptation of the method of DNA alkaline elution. To measure cross-linking, a controlled frequency of DNA single-strand breaks was introduced by exposing the cells to a low dose of X-ray at 0 degrees C prior to analysis by alkaline elution. The effect of prior exposure of the cells to ultraviolet radiation was to reduce the rate and/or extent of DNA elution from X-irradiated cells. This effect was attributed to DNA-protein cross-linking, since the effect was reversed by treatment of the cell lysates with proteinase-K. Cross-linking in normal human fibroblasts occurred immediately after ultraviolet irradiation, prior to the appearance of DNA single-strand breaks due to excision repair. Upon incubation of normal cells after exposure, to ultraviolet radiation, the cross-linking was partially repaired. In xeroderma pigmentosum cells, cross-links appeared as in normal cells, but there was no repair. Instead, the extent of cross-linking appeared to increase upon incubation after ultraviolet irradiation. 相似文献

We established lymphoblastoid cell lines from 2 children with Chediak--Higashi syndrome (CHS), 2 xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) patients and control donors after transformation of peripheral lymphocytes by Epstein--Barr virus (EBV). We used these lymphoblastoid cell lines to investigate repair activity after ultraviolet irradiation. Cell survival of both CHS lymphoblastoid cell lines after irradiation by UV and treatment by 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide (4NQO) fell between those of the XP and control cell lines. Unscheduled DNA synthesis of CHS cells after UV irradiation occurred at rates similar to those of control cells. 相似文献

Human fibroblasts irradiated with ultraviolet light were either tested for survival (colony formation) or infected with simian virus 40 and examined for transformation (foci formation). For normal cell cultures, the fractions of surviving colonies which were also transformed increased with increasing irradiation dose. In contrast, little increase in the transformation of ultraviolet-irradiated repair-deficient (xeroderma pigmentosum and xeroderma pigmentosum variant) cells was observed. Similar experiments with xeroderma pigmentosum variant cells treated with caffeine following irradiation indicated that, under these conditions, the deficient cells produced more transformants among the survivors of ultraviolet irradiation than did unirradiated cells. These results suggest (1) that DNA repair functions, not DNA damage per se, are required for enhanced viral transformation in normal cells; (2) that functions involved in excision repair and functions needed for replication of ultraviolet-damaged DNA appear necessary for this stimulation; and (3) that blocking DNA replication in ultraviolet-irradiated xeroderma pigmentosum variant cells by caffeine enhances viral transformation. 相似文献

Sister-chromatid exchange (SCE) induced by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation and viability after UV irradiation were studied in lymphoblastoid cell lines derived from 7 patients with xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) and 6 normal donors. UV irradiation caused significant increases of SCEs in both XP and normal cells. In 3 XP cell lines, which were deficient in unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) and sensitive to the killing effect of UV, very high SCE frequencies were observed after UV irradiation. Cells from a patient with the De Sanctis-Cacchione syndrome were the most sensitive to UV in terms of both SCE induction and cell killing. In 2 of 4 UDS-proficient XP cell lines tested, the incidences of UV-induced SCEs were similar to those in normal cell lines, but in 2 other UDS-proficient lines from 2 XP patients with skin cancer, the frequencies of UV-induced SCEs were significantly higher than in normal cells.Continuous post-UV treatment with 1 mM caffeine markedly enhanced UV-induced SCEs in 3 of 4 UDS-proficient XP cell lines but had only slight effects on cells from the 4th UDS-proficient XP patient and from normal individuals. 相似文献

The regulation of DNA repair during serum stimulation of quiescent cells was examined in normal human cells, in fibroblasts from three xeroderma pigmentosum complementation groups (A, C, and D), in xeroderma pigmentosum variant cells, and in ataxia telangiectasia cells. The regulation of nucleotide excision repair was examined by exposing cells to ultraviolet irradiation at discrete intervals after cell stimulation. Similarly, base excision repair was quantitated after exposure to methylmethane sulfonate. WI-38 normal human diploid fibroblasts, xeroderma pigmentosum variant cells, as well as ataxia telangiectasia cells enhanced their capacity for both nucleotide excision repair and for base excision repair prior to their enhancement of DNA synthesis. Further, in each cell strain, the base excision repair enzyme uracil DNA glycosylase was increased prior to the induction of DNA polymerase using the identical cells to quantitate each activity. In contrast, each of the three xeroderma complementation groups that were examined failed to increase their capacity for nucleotide excision repair above basal levels at any interval examined. This result was observed using either unscheduled DNA synthesis in the presence of 10 mM hydroxyurea or using repair replication in the absence of hydroxyurea to quantitate DNA repair. However, each of the three complementation groups normally regulated the enhancement of base excision repair after methylmethane sulfonate exposure and each induced the uracil DNA glycosylase prior to DNA synthesis. These results suggest that there may be a relationship between the sensitivity of xeroderma pigmentosum cells from each complementation group to specific DNA damaging agents and their inability to regulate nucleotide excision repair during cell stimulation. 相似文献

Detection and repair of a UV-induced photosensitive lesion in the DNA of human cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Irradiation with UV light results in damage to the DNA of human cells. The most numerous lesions are pyrimidine dimers; however, other lesions are known to occur and may contribute to the overall deleterious effect of UV irradiation. We have observed evidence of a UV-induced lesion other than pyrimidine dimers in the DNA of human cells by measuring DNA strand breaks induced by irradiating with 313-nm light following UV (254-nm) irradiation. These breaks, measured by alkaline sucrose sedimentation, increased linearly with the dose of UV light over the range tested (10-40 J/m2). The breaks cannot be photolytically induced 5 h after a UV dose of 20 J/m2 in normal cells; however, in xeroderma pigmentosum variant cells, the breaks are inducible for up to 24 h after UV irradiation. Xeroderma pigmentosum group A cells in the same 5-h period show an increase in the number of strand breaks seen with 313-nm light photolysis from about 2 to 4 breaks/10(9) dalton DNA. These breaks can then be induced for up to 24 h. These data suggest that, in normal cells, the lesion responsible for this effect is rapidly repaired or altered; whereas, in xeroderma pigmentosum variant cells it seems to remain unchanged. Some change apparently occurs in the DNA of xeroderma pigmentosum group A cells which results in an increase in photolability. These data indicate a deficiency in DNA repair of xeroderma pigmentosum variant cells as well as in xeroderma pigmentosum group A cells. 相似文献

When S phase lymphocytes were treated for various times with high doses of ConA, we observed that labelled precursor incorporation into DNA was suppressed. This inhibition is characterized by its rapid onset, its lectin dose dependence and reversibility by α-methyl-mannoside. The uptake of labelled desoxyribonucleoside precursors is not modified by the treatment. The nucleoside kinase activity tested on cellular extracts showed a slight but significant decrease. However, the fact that the specific activity of newly replicated DNA was not modified indicates that the DNA labelling suppression is not a direct consequence of alterations in pathways of labelled DNA precursor synthesis. The available ATP pool in treated cells decreased by 25% after 30 min and near 50% after 1 h. The decrease in DNA labelling observed is related to a decrease in the overall rate of DNA synthesis. From density shift analysis of very large DNA molecules labelled by [ (a large part of a cluster of replicons), as well as velocity sedimentation analysis of pulse-chased molecules, we have demonstrated that (i) the DNA elongation within active replicons is not blocked; (ii) the rate of assembly of newly replicated DNA fragments (replicons) seems to be unmodified. Consequently, the initiations of adjacent replicons in operating clusters are not affected. However, the number of clusters which start their replication by initiation of new replicons is greatly reduced after 1 h of ConA treatment. 相似文献

The frequency of sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs), both spontaneous and induced by UV-light, X-rays, mitomycin C and ethylmetansulphonate (EMS), has been investigated in cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Besides, frequency of spontaneous and induced SCEs was studied under the action of the inhibitors of topoisomerase II, polymerase poly(ADP-ribose), and DNA repair, i. e. novobiocin, 3-metoxybenzamide, and caffeine, respectively. It is shown that the base-line SCEs in lymphocytes of the patient with xeroderma pigmentosum II (XP2LE) is dramatically higher compared to that in normal and pigmented xerodermoid cells (XP3LE). The above inhibitors of DNA synthesis and repair enhance the rate of spontaneous SCEs in normal, XP2LE and XP3LE cells. UV-, X-ray and chemical mutagens induced an increased frequency of SCEs in these cells. Simultaneous treatment with mutagenes and inhibitors of DNA synthesis and DNA repair enhanced the rate of SCEs in lymphocytes of healthy donors and in the XP3LE patient. The frequency of the XP2LE cells. Novobiocin, 3-MBA and caffeine significantly decreased the frequency of SCEs in mitomycin C- and EMS-treated XP2LE lymphocyte, which nevertheless was much higher than that in normal cells treated with the same agents. 相似文献

Treatment of normal and xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group E skin fibroblasts with 8-methoxypsoralen plus repeated doses of near-ultraviolet radiation elicited a marked increase in DNA strand breakage during a subsequent incubation. No such induction of breaks was noted with cells from xeroderma pigmentosum groups A and D. The results suggest that the gene product which is deficient in xeroderma pigmentosum group E cells is involved in a critical step of DNA repair of far-ultraviolet photoproducts but not so in the repair of psoralen cross-links. 相似文献
