Effects of variations in nucleoside pool sizes on comparisons of the incorporation of [3H]thymidine into isolated rat liver cells.

چکیده
Isolated rat liver cells have been used to measure DNA repair synthesis induced by ultraviolet light and aflatoxin. Age, sex, and diet of the rats were found to influence DNA repair in rat liver cells, as measured by [3H]thymidine uptake by the cells. These effects were found to be due to variations in the thymidine pool size and should serve to indicate that high-specific-activity thymidine (i.e., low nucleoside concentrations) is subject to artifacts generated by pool size variations.

[Methyl-14C]-choline incorporation into nude mice bearing tumor xenografts-correlation with [methyl-3H]-thymidine: A pilot study
Background: Many in vitro studies suggested that choline incorporation into many types of tumors is related to cell proliferation. Whether in vivo choline incorporation is related also to cell proliferation or not was my question. Therefore, the aim of this pilot study was to investigate the relationship of in vivo [methyl- 14C]-choline incorporation and in vivo [methyl-3H]- thymidine incorpora...
متن کاملThymidine phosphate pools and DNA synthesis after polyoma infection of mouse embryo cells.
We investigated conditions for the incorporation of thymidine-3H into pools of thymidine compounds and into DNA in mouse embryo cells in culture with the purpose of measuring changes in pool sizes and their possible correlation to the rate of DNA synthesis. Thin and dense cultures of embryo cells were grown in Petri dishes during six days. Thymidine triphosphate was the dominating thymidine com...

Background: Novel roles for the interaction of cardiotonic steroids to Na+/K+-ATPase have been established in recent years. The aim of the present study was to investigate the intracellular signaling events downstream the action of ouabain on Na+/K+-ATPase in Sertoli cell obtained from immature rats. Treatment of Sertoli cells with ouabain (1 μM) induced a rapid and transient increase in the ex...
متن کاملGnidilatimonoein from Daphne mucronata inhibits DNA synthesis in human cancer cell lines
The anticancer agents from plant sources usually exert their action through a wide range of mechanisms. As part of our studies of plants for new anticancer agents with emphasis on Thymelaeaceae family, we examined the cytotoxicity and anti-tumor activity of the water extract of D. mucronata leaves against induced breast tumor in rats. In the current study, we were interested to obtain some know...
