Correlations between intercalator-induced DNA strand breaks and sister chromatid exchanges, mutations, and cytotoxicity in Chinese hamster cells.

چکیده
Intercalator-induced DNA strand breaks in mammalian cells represent topoisomerase II:DNA complexes trapped by intercalators. These complexes are detected as protein-associated DNA single-strand breaks (SSB) and DNA double-strand breaks (DSB) by filter elution. Using Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (V79 cells) that were treated for 30 min with various concentrations of 4'-(9-acridinylamino)methanesulfon-m-anisidide or 5-iminodaunorubicin, we measured DNA strand breaks (SSB and DSB), sister chromatid exchanges (SCE), mutations at the hypoxanthine:guanine phosphoribosyltransferase locus, and cell killing. Further, we correlated DNA strand breakage with the three other parameters. Both drugs induced SCE, mutations, and cell killing at concentrations which also produced reversible DNA strand breaks. While the quantity of DSB correlated with SCE, mutations, and cytotoxicity for both drugs, we found more SCE, mutations, and cytotoxicity per SSB in cells treated with 5-iminodaunorubicin than in those treated with 4'-(9-acridinylamino)methanesulfon-m-anisidide. These data show that the DSB (but not the SSB) induced by 4'-(9-acridinylamino)methanesulfon-m-anisidide and 5-iminodaunorubicin at DNA topoisomerase II binding sites correlated closely with SCE, mutations, and cell killing and could therefore be responsible for their production.

Propranolol induced chromosomal aberrations in Chinese hamster ovary cell line
Propranolol (PL), a non-selective beta-blocker, is a cardiovascular drug widely used to treat hypertension. The present study was concerned with assessing the cytogenetic effects of this drug on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line. MTT assay was then carried out to determine the cytotoxicity index (IC50) of the drug. The IC50 value of PL was 0.43±0.02 mM. To investigate the clastogenic effect...

4'-(9-Acridinylamino)methanesulfon-m-anisidide, etoposide, and 2-methyl-9-hydroxyellipticinium are antitumor topoisomerase II (topo II) inhibitors. The relationship between drug-induced sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) or chromosomal aberrations and cytotoxicity was investigated in Chinese hamster cells sensitive (DC3F) and resistant (DC3F/9-OHE) to topo II inhibitors.

متن کاملRole of DNA repair inhibition in lead- and cadmium-induced genotoxicity: a review.
Compounds of lead and cadmium have been shown to be carcinogenic to humans and experimental animals. However, the underlying mechanisms are still not understood. In mammalian cells in culture, lead(II) is weakly mutagenic after long incubation times and generates DNA strand breaks only after treatment with high, toxic doses. Cadmium(II) induces DNA strand breaks and chromosomal aberrations, but...
