The enzyme elongates or maintains telomere length by adding to its end tandem TTAGGG repeats by using its endogenous RNA template. Telomerase is not detectable in most somatic cells but is upregulated in germ line cells and in 85-90% of human cancers, which suggests important role of telomerase in neoplastic transformation. Consequently, telomerase has been proposed as a potentially highly selective target for the development of antiproliferative agents. Platinum complexes are widely administrated in cancer therapy. A conjugate of selenite with diammineplatinum [(NH(3))(2)Pt(SeO(3))(2)] is a novel potential anticancer drug. Using alkaline single cell gel electrophoresis (comet assay), we showed that the drug at 5-30 microM induced concentration-dependent damage to DNA of endometrial cancer cells derived from tumor samples. Sodium ascorbate at 10 and 50 microM reduced the extent of the DNA damage evoked by the drug. (NH(3))(2)Pt(SeO(3)) reduced telomerase activity in the cells in a concentration-dependent manner as measured by using the telomere repeat amplification protocol (TRAP) assay. This effect was independent of sodium ascorbate. Therefore, mutagenic effects of the conjugate can be reduced by well-recognized antimutagen, sodium ascorbate, but it can still retain ability to affect neoplastic transformation. The results obtained indicate that (NH(3))(2)Pt(SeO(3)) may specifically inhibit telomerase activity in endometrial cancer cells.","PeriodicalId":22336,"journal":{"name":"Teratogenesis, carcinogenesis, and mutagenesis","volume":"13 1","pages":"73-82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74193310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The present study was performed to investigate the in vitro cytotoxic and genotoxic potential effects of D-003 assessed through two tests: the neutral red (NR) assay and the Ames test. Positive and negative controls were included in each experimental series.

The positive control chemicals included in each experiment, namely, treatment with sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in the NR assay and sodium azide (NaAz), 2-aminofluorene (AF), and dimethylnitrosamine (DMNA) in the Ames test, induced the expected changes, such as a decrease in optical density (OD) values in the NR assay and an increase in the frequency of reverse mutations in the Ames test.

Fasting prior to DEN-initiation did not influence the development of altered foci of hepatocytes (AFHs) and of hepatic nodules (Group 2 vs. Group G1). IF inhibited the development of preneoplastic lesions, since this dietary regimen decreased the number and the size of glutathione S-transferase (GST-P) positive foci and the number and size of liver nodules (Group G3 vs. Group G1). The inhibitory effect of IF was also reflected in the development of clear and basophilic cell foci.

Solvent controls of DMSO and ethanol and a positive control of ethylmethanesulfonate (EMS) were also analyzed. We developed a rapid microplate-based method to determine the cytotoxicity of the DBPs and we determined their mutagenic potencies. The distributions of the rank order for the cytotoxicity and mutagenicity of these DBPs were compared and the structure-function relationships were identified. TA100 -S9 was the most sensitive strain for these DBPs. The rank order of the mutagenic potency adjusted with a cytoxicity factor was MX > BA > EMS > DBA > DCA > CA with TBA, TCA, BF, and CF not mutagenic. From a structure-function perspective, the brominated acetic acids were more cytotoxic and mutagenic than their chlorinated analogs. BA was 150x more mutagenic than CA. The mutagenic potency of the haloacetic acids was inversely related to the number of halogen atoms of the molecule. BA was 36x more mutagenic than DBA. The differential cytotoxicity expressed by the DBPs indicated that a cytotoxicity analysis enhanced the sensitivity of the mutagenicity data, which resulted in an enhanced precision for comparing their relative mutagenic strengths. This information is critical when conducting quantitative structure-function analysis of these hazardous agents.","PeriodicalId":22336,"journal":{"name":"Teratogenesis, carcinogenesis, and mutagenesis","volume":"38 1","pages":"113-28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91301901","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the present study we tested whether this NEMS is inducible by chronic alcohol administration to rats and whether these nuclei also have increased ability to bioactivate N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA). Sprague Dawley male rats (125-150g) were fed with a nutritionally adequate liquid diet containing alcohol to provide 36% of total energy (standard Lieber-De Carli rat diet), for 28 days. Controls received an isocaloric diet without alcohol. Animals were sacrificed, livers were excised and microsomes and purified nuclear fractions were prepared. Both microsomes and nuclei from treated animals had significantly increased ability compared to controls, to biotransform ethanol to acetaldehyde using NADPH as cofactor under an air atmosphere. Both organelles also exhibited significantly increased capacity compared to controls, to bioactivate NDMA to formaldehyde and to reactive metabolites that bind covalently to proteins. Nuclear preparations from control animals were also able to metabolize NDMA to formaldehyde and reactive metabolites. Results indicate that liver nuclei may have a CYP2E1 able to bioactivate both NDMA and EtOH and that these processes are being induced by chronic alcohol drinking. The bioactivation of these xenobiotics to reactive metabolites in the neighborhood of nuclear proteins and DNA might have significant toxicological implications.","PeriodicalId":22336,"journal":{"name":"Teratogenesis, carcinogenesis, and mutagenesis","volume":"58 1","pages":"139-45"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80716584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
