Short-term tests that detect genetic damage have provided information needed for evaluating carcinogenic risks of chemicals to man. The mutagenicity of cis-bis(3-aminoflavone)dichloroplatinum(II) (cis-[Pt(AF)2Cl2]) in comparison with cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) (cis-DDP) was evaluated in the standard plate-incorporation assay in four strains of Salmonella typhimurium: TA97a, TA98, TA100 and TA102, in experiments with and without metabolic activation. It was shown that cis-[Pt(AF)2Cl2] acts directly and is mutagenic for three strains of S. typhimurium: TA97a, TA98 and TA100. In comparison with cis-DDP this compound showed a weaker genotoxicity. Contrary to cis-DDP it has not shown toxic properties in the tester bacteria. The genotoxicity of both tested compounds was evaluated using chromosomal aberration, sister chromatid exchange and micronucleus assays, without and with metabolic activation, in human lymphocytes in vitro. The inhibitory effects of both compounds on mitotic activity, cell proliferation kinetics and nuclear division index were also compared. In all test systems applied, cis-[Pt(AF)2Cl2] was a less effective clastogen and a weaker inducer of both sister chromatid exchanges and micronuclei in comparison with cis-DDP, with and without metabolic activation. cis-[Pt(AF)2Cl2] has a direct mechanism of action and is less cytostatic and cytotoxic than the other compound. These results provide important data on the genotoxicity of cis-[Pt(AF)2Cl2] and indicate its beneficial properties as a potential anticancer drug, especially in comparison with cis-DDP. 相似文献

In a comprehensive assessment of genotoxicity, sodium fluoride was evaluated in a battery of cellular tests providing different genetic end points and biotransformation capabilities. The tests included the following: rat hepatocyte primary culture/DNA repair assay, Salmonella typhimurium histidine locus reversion assay, adult rat liver epithelial cell/hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase mutation assay, and sister chromatid exchange in two target cell types, human peripheral blood lymphocytes and Chinese hamster ovary cells. Negative findings were made in all assays, indicating that sodium fluoride is not genotoxic in these assays.Abbreviations ARL

Derivatives of 2-aryl-substitute ( o-hydroxy-, m-bromo-, o-methoxy-, o-nitro-phenyl or 4-pyridyl) benzothiazole were synthesized and tested for their mutagenicity in in vitro assays: (i) in the Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100 strains; and (ii) in the sister chromatid exchange (SCE) in cultured human lymphocytes. The four of compounds
(BT-11, B-12, BT-14 and BT-15) caused statistically significant increase in revertant colonies of TA98 and TA100. Treatment
of lymphocytes with compounds also caused a significant increase in SCE/cell in association with high levels and long exposure
(300 μg/mL and 48 h) of the four compounds. It can be concluded that benzothiazole derivatives showed mutagenic activity and
were also able to exert a genotoxic effect reducing both the replication index and mitotic index. 相似文献

A new synthesized acridine derivative, 3,6-diamino-10-methyl-9, 10-dihydroacridine (AcrH), was tested for in vitro reverse mutations with Salmonella TA strains, chromosome aberrations and sister chromatid exchanges (SCE) in human lymphocytes, and for in vivo chromosome aberrations in bone marrow of mice. Using the classic plate incorporation method, mutagenicity of AcrH in bacterial cells (TA97a, TA98, TA100 and TA102) was observed in the experiments performed with, and without, rat liver S9 metabolic activation. The reverse mutation assay showed no difference in mutagenic activity between AcrH and acriflavine (Acr(+)) in the test with TA97. The results of in vitro chromosome aberrations assay revealed potential clastogenicity. The test using macroculture of human lymphocytes induced mainly chromatid gaps. The experiments with human lymphocytes revealed SCE-inducing effect of AcrH and Acr(+). In an in vivo study, AcrH given intraperitoneally to Balb/c mice did not cause any significant increase in the percentage of cells with aberrations compared to the negative control. 相似文献

Mutagenic and genotoxic effects of dicapthon were investigated by using the bacterial reverse mutation assay in Salmonella typhimurium TA97, TA98, TA100 and TA102 strains with or without metabolic activation system (S9 mix), and chromosome aberrations (CAs), sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs), and micronucleus (MN) tests in human peripheral blood lymphocytes in vitro. Dicapthon was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide for all test systems. 0.1, 1, 10 and 100 μg/plate doses of dicapthon were found to be weakly mutagenic on S. typhimurium TA 98 without S9 mix. The human peripheral lymphocytes were treated with four experimental concentrations of dicapthon (25, 50, 100, and 200 μg/mL) for 24 and 48 h. Dicapthon increased the frequency of SCE only at the 100 μg/mL concentration for the 24 and 48 h applications. Dicapthon also induced abnormal cell frequency, CA/cell ratio and frequency of MN dose dependently for 24 and 48 h. Dicapthon showed a statistically significant cytotoxic effect by decreasing the mitotic index in all concentrations and a cytostatic effect by decreasing nuclear division index in 100 and 200 μg/mL concentrations for both treatment periods when compared with both untreated and solvent controls. These values decreased also in a dose dependent manner. 相似文献

We aimed to evaluate the mutagenic effect of Anilofos, organophosphate pesticide, by using Ames/ Salmonella/microsome test. Its cytotoxic and genotoxic effects were also determined by chromosome aberration (CA), sister chromatid exchange (SCE) and micronucleus (MN) test in human peripheral blood lymphocytes. In the Ames test, five different concentrations of Anilofos were examined on TA97, TA98, TA100 and TA102 strains in the absence and presence of S9 fraction. According to the results all concentrations of this pesticide have not shown any mutagenic activity on TA97, TA100 and TA102 strains in the absence and presence of S9 fraction. But, 10, 100 and 1000 µg/plate concentrations of Anilofos were determined to be mutagenic on TA98 strain without S9 fraction. Lymphocytes were treated with various concentrations (25, 50, 100 and 200 µg/ml) of Anilofos for 24 and 48 h. The results of the assays showed that Anilofos did not induce SCE frequency, replication index and MN formation at all concentrations for both treatment periods. Anilofos significantly increased CA frequency at 100 and 200 µg/ml concentrations at 24 h treatment periods and at 50, 100 and 200 µg/ml concentrations in 48 h treatment periods. Additionally, it was determined that this pesticide decreased mitotic index and nuclear division index significantly. It was concluded that Anilofos has genotoxic and cytotoxic effects in human peripheral lymphocytes. 相似文献

The three tetramethyl isomers of benzene (prenitene, 1,2,3,4-; izodurene, 1,2,3,5-; and durene, 1,2,4,5-tetramethylben- zene) were studied using in vitro mutagenicity and in vivo genotoxicity tests. Potency of mutate induction by these solvents was evaluated in Salmonella typhimurium cells with, and without S9-mix made from Aroclor 1254-induced rat liver S9. The potency of induction of micronuclei (MN) and sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) by solvents was evaluated in bone marrow of mice. Izodurene displayed mutagenic potency in strains TA97a, TA98 and TA100 only in the absence of the S9-mix. In MN tests, all three tetramethylbenzenes demonstrated no clastogenic activity on the bone marrow cells. All the tested solvents were active as genotoxic compounds in the SCE tests, demonstrating a dose-response relationships. 相似文献

Estrogens are indicated as being the most important etiological factors for the development and progression of breast cancer. The implication of estrogen in breast cancer has been associated mostly with the estrogen receptors that mediate cell proliferation. Evidence also exists to support the hypothesis of a direct role of estrogens as tumor initiators. However, the role of estrogen genotoxicity in breast cancer is still questionable. In this study the genotoxic activity of catecholestrogens and 16-hydroxy estrone has been investigated by performing Salmonella strain TA98 and TA100 Ames tests, sister chromatide exchange assays (SCE) and micronucleus assays on human peripheral lymphocytes (CBMN and ARA/CBMN). We found a lack of positive results with micronucleus assays, except for 2-hydroxy estradiol (2-OHE2), which shows a peculiar “bell shaped” trend of micronucleus number versus concentrations. SCE assay suggests weak genotoxic activity of all tested catechol metabolites, except 4-hydroxy estrone (4-OHE1), which also showed negative results by ARA/CBMN. In this open debate, our results support the hypothesis of a weak genotoxicity, not correlated with the carcinogenetic potential of estrogens. 相似文献

Indoor air pollution has now been recognized as a potentially important problem for public health, since people spend most of their day in closed environments. Incense burning is possibly associated with elevated risks of leukemia and brain tumor in children from the epidemiological studies. Thus, evaluation of the genotoxicity of smoke condensates from incense burning is needed. We examined the genotoxicity of incense smoke condensates (ISC) using the Ames test in S. typhimurium strains with different mutagenic specificity and level of metabolic enzyme, the SOS chromotest in E. coli PQ37, and sister chromatid exchange assay in Chinese hamster ovary cells (SCE/CHO). The genotoxicity of environmental tobacco smoke condensates (TSC) was also evaluated by the three assays to compare with the genotoxicity of ISC, ISC showed a positive response in TA98, but not in TA100. It suggested that ISC only contained frame shift mutagens. The mutagenicity of ISC in both strains of TA98NR with deficient nitroreductase and TA98/1,8-DNP 6 with deficient O-acetyl-transferase was markedly decreased compared to that in TA98 strain. However, the mutagenicity was enhanced in YG1024 with overexpression of O-acetyltransferase activity. Thus, nitroarenes seemed to be responsible in part for the mutagenicity of ISC. Interestingly, all of the four ISC and two TSC samples showed a dose-dependent genotoxic response in the SOS chromotest with E. coli PQ37 but a low SCE induction of those samples were observed in CHO cells. When the genotoxicity was analyzed based on the condensates per one gram of original samples, the genotoxicity of two TSC condensates in prokaryotic cells was higher than that of four ISC samples except for the genotoxicity of TSC-2 in TA98 strain. However, the genotoxicity of certain ISC in eukaryotic cells based on the SCE/CHO assay was higher than that of TSC. To compare the covalent binding of DNA reactive intermediates of ISC and TSC to S. typhimurium TA98, the DNA adducts were evaluated by the 32P-postlabeling method with butanol extraction version. Similar diagonal radioactive zone (DRZ) was observed between ISC and CSC. However, DNA adduct levels induced by TSC were much greater than that of ISC. 相似文献

The in vitro and in vivo genotoxicity of parthenin, a sesquiterpene lactone from Parthenium hysterophorus L. with allergenic and irritant action, was assessed in three short-term tests: bacterial reversion in Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli, in vitro chromosomal aberrations in peripheral blood lymphocytes and micronuclei in mouse peripheral blood. Parthenin was not mutagenic in S. typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100 but a weak response was observed in TA 102 (+S9) from 0.19 to 1.22 micromole per plate. Concentrations of 7.62 micromole per plate or higher were toxic, but the effect was reduced when S9 was present. Screening of oxidative mutagenesis with E. coli strains IC 188 and IC 203 gave negative results. Parthenin induced chromosomal aberrations, mainly chromatid breaks, in blood lymphocytes exposed to 10-60 microM during 20 h. An association was found with cytotoxicity, since concomitant nuclear alterations such as pycnosis, micronuclei and karyorrhexis were observed. Sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) in lymphocytes were not influenced by exposure to parthenin; rather a decrease was observed at 60 microM. On the other hand, a minor increment in polyploid metaphases was found at 40 microM. When a single intraperitoneal (i.p.) dose of 4-31 mg/kg of parthenin was administered to mice, a positive increase in the micronucleated reticulocyte (RET) frequency was observed at 48 h for both sexes at the highest dose. 相似文献

This paper presents studies on the genotoxicity of two aminophenazines: 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) and 2-amino-3-hydroxyphenazine (AHP). The genotoxic activities of these compounds were evaluated with human lymphocytes using the alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE) assay and two cytogenetic assays (chromosome aberrations (CA) and sister chromatid exchange (SCE) analysis). Results show that these chemicals elicited an increase in DNA and chromosomal damage under the studied ranges of concentration. Concentration-response curves were similar and there was a positive correlation between the damage observed at the DNA and chromosomal levels. DAP was more genotoxic than AHP and this agreed with the genotoxic potencies reported in bacterial systems. 相似文献

Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder that affects both genders and results in reduced synthesis of hemoglobin, and thus causing anemia. Previous studies have shown that the severe form of this disease, thalassemia major, is associated with genotoxicity. This includes increases in the level of sister chromatid exchange (SCEs), chromosomal aberrations (CAs) and micronuclei. In this study, we assessed genotoxicity in the lymphocytes of thalassemia minor subjects using sister chromatid exchange (SCE) and chromosomal aberration (CA) assays. In addition, we investigated the level of oxidative DNA damage by measuring 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8OHdG) biomarker in urine samples. Eighteen thalassemia minor subjects and eighteen matched normal healthy controls were volunteered in the study. In addition, seven thalassemia major patients were recruited as positive controls. The results showed increases in the frequency of SCEs (P<0.05) in thalassemia minor compared to healthy controls. However, no difference in CAs frequency was detected between thalassemia minor and controls (P>0.05). Both SECs and CAs in thalassemia major patients were significantly higher compared to other groups (P<0.05). Regarding urine 8OHdG levels, the result showed a slight increase in thalassemia minor compared to healthy controls but the difference was not significant (P>0.05). In conclusion, our results showed that thalassemia minor is associated with genotoxicity to blood lymphocytes as indicated by SCEs assay. 相似文献

With the growing realization that in vitro short-term tests for genotoxicity can never fully mimic in vivo conditions, the evaluation of genotoxic damage in somatic cells of rodents has played an increasingly important role in assessing the carcinogenic potential of suspect compounds. Among the various genotoxic endpoints assessed in in vivo somatic cell assays, cytogenetic endpoints (e.g., chromosomal aberrations, micronuclei, sister chromatid exchanges) continue to be used most frequently. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the utility of evaluating different cytogenetic endpoints in the same animal, using as examples studies to evaluate the in vivo genotoxic potential of benzene, of methylisocyanate, and of butadiene, chloroprene and isoprene.Abbreviations CA

Diethylenetriamine (DETA) and Sodium Nitroprusside (NaNP), the exogenous NO-generating compounds, were tested for their genotoxicity in human lymphocytes in vitro using the sister chromatid exchange (SCE) technique. Both compounds were found to be inactive in inducing SCE in concentrations from 0.3 to 30 pM. However both compounds displayed an inhibiting effect on cell kinetics. 相似文献

The anti-genotoxic effect of Ocimum sanctum L. extract was studied against the genotoxic effect induced by a synthetic progestin cyproterone acetate, on human lymphocytes using chromosomal aberrations, mitotic index, sister chromatid exchanges and replication index as a parameters. About 30 microM of cyproterone acetate was treated with O. sanctum L. infusion, at dosages of 1.075 x 10(-4), 2.125 x 10(-4) and 3.15 x 10(-4) g/ml of culture medium. A clear dose-dependent decrease in the genotoxic damage of cyproterone acetate was observed, suggesting a possible modulating role of the plant infusion. The results of the present study suggest that the plant infusion per se does not have genotoxic potential, but can modulate the genotoxicity of cyproterone acetate on human lymphocytes in vitro. 相似文献

Sediments are the sink for particle-sorbed contaminants in aquatic systems and can serve as a reservoir of toxic contaminants that continually threaten the health and viability of aquatic biota. This work is a comprehensive review of published studies that investigated the genotoxicity of sediments in rivers, lakes and marine habitats. The Salmonella mutagenicity test is the most frequently used assay and accounts for 41.1% of the available data. The Salmonella data revealed mutagenic potency values for sediment extracts (in revertants per gram dry weight) that spans over seven orders of magnitude from not detectable to highly potent (10(5) rev/g). Analyses of the Salmonella data (n=510) showed significant differences between rural, urban/industrial, and heavily contaminated (e.g., dump) sites assessed using TA98 and TA100 with S9 activation. Additional analyses showed a significant positive correlation between Salmonella mutagenic potency (TA98 and TA100 with S9) and PAH contamination (r2=0.19-0.68). The second and third most commonly used assays for the analysis of sediments and sediment extracts are the SOS Chromotest (9.2%) and the Mutatox assays (7.8%), respectively. These assays are frequently used for rapid initial screening of collected samples. A variety of other in vitro endpoints employing cultured fish and mammalian cells have been used to investigate sediment genotoxic activity. Endpoints investigated include sister chromatid exchange frequency, micronucleus frequency, chromosome aberration frequency, gene mutation at tk and hprt loci, unscheduled DNA synthesis, DNA adduct frequency, and DNA strand break frequency. More complex in vivo assays have documented a wide range of effects including neoplasms and preneoplastic lesions in fish and invertebrate exposed ex situ. Although costly and time consuming, these assays have provided definitive evidence linking sediment contamination and a variety of genotoxic and carcinogenic effects observed in situ. 相似文献

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have antimicrobial properties, which have contributed to their widespread use in consumer products. A current issue regarding nanomaterials is the extent to which existing genotoxicity assays are useful for evaluating the risks associated with their use. In this study, the genotoxicity of 5 nm AgNPs was assessed using two standard genotoxicity assays, the Salmonella reverse mutation assay (Ames test) and the in vitro micronucleus assay. Using the preincubation version of the Ames assay, Salmonella strains TA102, TA100, TA1537, TA98, and TA1535 were treated with 0.15-76.8 μg/plate of the AgNPs. Toxicity limited the doses that could be assayed to 2.4-38.4 μg/plate; no increases in mutant frequency over the vehicle control were found for the concentrations that could be assayed. Human lymphoblastoid TK6 cells were treated with 10-30 μg/ml AgNPs, and additional cells were treated with water and 0.73 gy X-rays as vehicle and positive controls. Micronucleus frequency was increased by the AgNP treatment in a dose-dependent manner. At a concentration of 30 μg/ml (with 45.4% relative population doubling), AgNPs induced a significant, 3.17-fold increase with a net increase of 1.60% in micronucleus frequency over the vehicle control, a weak positive response by our criteria. These results demonstrate that the 5 nm AgNP are genotoxic in TK6 cells. Also, the data suggest that the in vitro micronucleus assay may be more appropriate than the Ames test for evaluating the genotoxicity of the AgNPs. 相似文献

The genotoxic effects of the antifungal drug fluconazole (trade name triflucan) were assessed in the chromosome aberration (CA) test in mouse bone-marrow cells in vivo and in the chromosome aberration, sister chromatid exchange (SCE) and micronucleus (MN) tests in human lymphocytes. Fluconazole was used at concentrations of 12.5, 25.0 and 50.0 mg/kg for the in vivo assay and 12.5, 25.0 and 50.0 microg/ml were used for the in vitro assay. In both test systems, a negative and a positive control (MMC) were also included. Six types of structural aberration were observed: chromatid and chromosome breaks, sister chromatid union, chromatid exchange, fragments and dicentric chromosomes. Polyploidy was observed in both the in vivo and in vitro systems. In the in vivo test, fluconazole did not significantly increase the frequency of CA. In the in vitro assays, CA, SCE and MN frequencies were significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner compared with the negative control. The mitotic, replication and cytokinesis-block proliferation indices (CBPI) were not affected by treatments with fluconazole. According to these results, fluconazole is clastogenic and aneugenic in human lymphocytes, but these effects could not be observed in mice. Further studies should be conducted in other test systems to evaluate the full genotoxic potential of fluconazole. 相似文献

Apitol, with cymiazole hydrochloride as the active ingredient, is used in bee-keeping against the ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor. The preparation was evaluated for genotoxicity in cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Sister chromatid exchange, the mitotic index and the cell proliferation index were determined for three experimental concentrations of Apitol (0.001, 0.01 and 0.1 mg/ml). All concentrations significantly (p < 0.001) increased the mitotic index (MI = 7.35+/-0.18%, 8.31+/-0.20% and 12.33+/-0.25%, respectively), the proliferative index (PI = 1.83+/-0.01, 1.84+/-0.01 and 1.88+/-0.02, respectively) and the frequency of sister chromatid exchange (SCE = 8.19+/-1.81, 8.78+/-1.80 and 13.46+/-1.88, respectively), suggesting that cymiazole hydrochloride has genotoxic potential. 相似文献

The rate of sister chromatid exchange induced by several anti-herpes agents was measured to assess their potential mutagenicity. The agents--5-iodo-deoxyuridine (IDU), 5-trifluoromethyl-deoxyuridine (TFT), and [E]-5-(2-bromovinyl)-deoxyuridine (BVDU)--were incubated at various concentrations with human lymphocytes and fibroblasts, and that rate of sister chromatid exchanges was measured. In lymphocytes and fibroblasts BVDU and IDU did not induce exchange except at concentrations of 50 mg/l, while TFT increased the rate of exchange at a concentration of 0.5 mg/l. The rate of sister chromatid exchange is a sensitive index of chromosomal damage, and these findings provide information on the safety of some of the antiherpes agents tested. TFT increased the rate of exchange at a concentration that coincides with its minimal antiviral concentration, but BVDU did not induce exchange at therapeutic concentrations. 相似文献
