Evidence for reactive oxygen species inducing mutations in mammalian cells.

We have studied the mutagenicity (by selecting for mutants resistant to 6-thioguanine) and cytotoxicity (by determining cellular cloning efficiency) of physical and chemical agents in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells, clone CHO-K1-BH4 (K1-BH4), and its radiation-hypersensitive transformant, AS52. AS52 cells contain a single functional copy of a bacterial gene, the xanthine/guanine phosphoribos...

I-3: Reactive Oxygen Species: A Dilemma for

Spermatozoa are very special cells and constantly exposed to the interphase between oxidative stress through high amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and leukocytes, and reduction by means of scavengers and antioxidants. Considering the very special functions of spermatozoa as being the only cells with such high polarization and exerting their functions outside the body, even in a differen...

Role of Caspases and Reactive Oxygen Species in Rose Bengal-Induced Toxicity in Melanoma Cells

Objective We have previously shown that Rose Bengal (RB) alone, not as a photosensitiser, could induce apoptotic- and non-apoptotic cell death in different melanoma cell lines. To clarify RB-induced toxicity mechanisms, role of caspases and reactive oxygen specious (ROS) were studied in melanoma cells. Material and Methods Human melanoma cell lines, Me 4405 and Sk-Mel-28 were cultured in DM...

Cuscuta campestris induces apoptosis by increasing reactive oxygen species generation in human leukemic cells

Objective: Cuscuta campestris or common dodder is a holoparasitic  plant  that  has  been valorized for treatment of liver injury and cancer prevention in traditional medicine. Recently, extract of C. campestris had shown moderate antimicrobial properties and cytotoxic effects. In this study, we examined the level of cellular oxidants, cytotoxicity, apoptosis and differentiation induced by hydr...

Reactive oxygen species mediate TNF-α-induced inflammatory response in bone marrow mesenchymal cells

Objective(s): It is generally believed that the inflammatory response in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) transplantation leads to poor survival and unsatisfactory effects, and is mainly mediated by cytokines, including interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). In this study, we explored the mechanisms underlying the TNF-α-induced inflammatory ...
