Clastogenic effect of thiophosphamide in spermatogonia of inbred strains of mice
Authors:T V Veskova  A M Malashenko
Abstract:Sensitivity of spermatogonia of 11 mouse inbred strains to induction of chromosome damages by thiophosphamide (thioTEPA) was studied. Metaphase chromosome preparations were made 24 h after treatment with thioTEPA (at 2.25 mg/kg, i/p). With respect to frequency of cells with chromosome damages, strains were ranked as follows: A/Sn (17.5 + 4.4%) greater than 101/H greater than TPS greater than WR = C57BL/6 = AKR = NZB greater than CBA/Lac greater than C3H/Sn greater than MRL greater than BALB/c (5.0 + 2.2%). This distribution does not coincide with that for sensitivity of bone marrow cells, though the data support, in general, the estimations obtained earlier for strains' mutability. Comparison of the data presented with those from literature demonstrates that the sensitivity to clastogenic effect of thioTEPA (and other alkylating agents) correlates neither with spontaneous level of SCE, nor with unscheduled DNA synthesis, nor with radiosensitivity of inbred mice. The frequency of induced chromosome aberrations in spermatogonia is relatively low and spermatogonia cannot substitute bone marrow cells as a test system when assaying chemical mutagens.
