2-Amino-6-N-hydroxyadenine (AHA) treated L5178Y/TK (+/-)-3.7.2C mouse lymphoma cells were evaluated for mutations at the tk, hgprt, and Na+/K+ ATPase loci, as well as for gross chromosome aberrations and induction of micronuclei. In addition, AHA was evaluated for its ability to induce HGPRT mutants in CHO cells. AHA was found to induce mutations at all evaluated loci and in both cell types. The TK mutants were primarily large colonies although a few small colonies were also induced, particularly at the higher concentrations. Preliminary cytogenetic analysis of AHA-treated mouse lymphoma cells indicated that some gross aberrations but not micronuclei were induced. The 20 small-colony TK mutants evaluated by banded karyotype indicate that only a small fraction (2 of 20) showed chromosome 11 abnormalities. From these studies, it appears that AHA may be one of a very few chemicals that is capable of inducing multi-locus point mutations, with only slight clastogenic activity. Particularly at the higher concentrations, some of the mutants may contain multi-locus point mutations that result in slow growth.

The V79 Chinese hamster cell mutant V-B11 has previously been assigned to a new complementation group (group 7) of UV-sensitive rodent mutants. The D10 for cell survival is approximately 6 J/m2 for V-B11, compared with approximately 15 J/m2 for the parental V79 cell line. The removal of (6-4) photoproducts from the genome overall is not impaired in V-B11, and the level of unscheduled DNA synthesis measured 2 h after UV irradiation is similar to that observed in the parental V79 cells. DNA repair replication measured as a function of UV dose is approximately 50% reduced in V-B11 in comparison with V79, when measured during the first 6 h after UV irradiation. Furthermore, in V-B11 the rate of cyclobutane dimer removal from the HPRT gene is slower than in wild-type cells. Despite the observed defects no effect on the UV-induced frequency of mutants at two loci: Na+/K(+)-ATPase and HPRT was found in V-B11 cells. The properties of V-B11 are compared with those of other UV-sensitive mutants.

Cells of the human lymphoblast line WI-L2 and its derivative TK-6 were synchronized by centrifugal elutriation and cell-cycle dependent mutation to 6TGR (HPRT) and OUAR (Na+, K+ ATPase) measured. Bromodeoxyuridine induced 6TGR and OUAR mutations within S phase while butylmethyl-sulfonate induced mutation displayed no cell-cycle dependence. The data indicate that centrifugal elutriation is a facile means to obtain a useful degree of synchrony for these cell lines.

Two UV sensitive DNA-repair-deficient mutants of Chinese hamster ovary cells (43-3B and 27-1) have been characterized. The sensitivity of these mutants to a broad spectrum of DNA-damaging agents: UV254nm, 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide (4NQO), X-rays, bleomycin, ethylnitrosourea (ENU), ethyl methanesulphonate (EMS), methyl methanesulphonate (MMS) and mitomycin C (MMC) has been determined. Both mutants were not sensitive to X-rays and bleomycin. 43-3B was found to be sensitive to 4NQO, MMC and slightly sensitive to alkylating agents. 27-1 was sensitive only to alkylating agents. The results suggest the existence of two repair pathways for UV-induced cytotoxicity: one pathway which is also used for the removal of 4NQO and MMC adducts and a second pathway which is also used for the removal of alkyl adducts. Parallel to the toxicity, the induction of mutations at the HPRT and Na+/K+-ATPase loci was determined. The increased cytotoxicity to UV, MMC and 4NQO in 43-3B cells and the increased cytotoxicity to UV in 27-1 cells correlated with increased mutability. It was observed that the increase in mutation induction at the HPRT locus was higher than that at the Na+/K+-ATPase locus. As only point mutations give rise to viable mutants at the Na+/K+-ATPase locus the lower mutability at this locus suggests that defective excision repair increases the chance for deletions. Despite an increased cytotoxicity to ENU in 27-1 cells the mutation induction by ENU was the same in 27-1 and wild-type cells at both loci, which suggests that the mutations are mainly induced by directly miscoding adducts (e.g. O-6 alkylguanine), which cannot be removed by CHO cells. As EMS and MMS treatment of 27-1 cells caused an increase in mutation induction at the HPRT locus and a decrease at the Na+/K+-ATPase locus it indicates that these agents induce a substantial fraction of other mutagenic lesions, which can be repaired by wild-type cells. This suggests that O-6 alkylation is not the only mutagenic lesion after treatment with alkylating agents.

Two X-ray-sensitive mutants of CHO-K1 cells, xrs 5 and xrs 6, were characterised with regard to their responses to genotoxic chemicals, namely bleomycin, MMS, EMS, MMC and DEB for induction of cell killing, chromosomal aberrations and SCEs at different stages of the cell cycle. In addition, induction of mutations at the HPRT and Na+/K+ ATPase (Oua) loci was evaluated after treatment with X-rays and MMS. Xrs 5 and xrs 6 cells were more sensitive than wild-type CHO-K1 to the cell killing effect of bleomycin (3 and 13 times respectively) and for induction of chromosomal aberrations (3 and 4.5 times). In these mutants a higher sensitivity for induction of chromosomal aberrations to MMS, EMS, MMC and DEB was observed (1.5-3.5 times). The mutants also showed increased sensitivity for cell killing effects of mono- and bi-functional alkylating agents (1.7-2.5 times). The high cell killing effect of X-rays in these mutants was accompanied by a slight increase in the frequency of HPRT mutation. The xrs mutants were also more sensitive to MMS for the increased frequency of TGr and Ouar mutants when compared to wild-type CHO-K1 cells. Though bleomycin is known to be a poor inducer of SCEs, an increase in the frequency of SCEs in xrs 6 cells (doubling at 1.2 micrograms/ml) was found in comparison to no significant increase in xrs 5 or CHO-K1 cells. The induced frequency of SCEs in all cell types increased in a similar way after the treatment with mono- or bi-functional alkylating agents. MMS treatment of G2-phase cells yielded a higher frequency of chromatid breaks in the mutants in a dose-dependent manner compared to no effect in wild-type CHO-K1 cells. Treatment of synchronised mutant cells at G1 stage with bleomycin resulted in both chromosome- and chromatid-type aberrations (similar to the response to X-ray treatment) in contrast to the induction of only chromosome-type aberrations in wild-type CHO-K1 cells. The frequency of chromosomal aberrations chromosome and chromatid types) also increased with MMC treatment in G1 cells of xrs mutants. DEB treatment of G1 cells induced mainly chromatid-type aberrations in all cell types. The possible reasons for the increased sensitivity of xrs mutants to the chemical mutagens studied are discussed and the results are compared to cells derived from radiosensitive ataxia telangiectasia patients.

Somatic cell hybrids constructed between UV-hypersensitive Chinese hamster ovary cell line UV20 and human lymphocytes were used to examine the influence of a human DNA repair gene, ERCC1, on UV photoproduct repair, mutability at several drug-resistance loci, UV cytotoxicity and UV split-dose recovery. In hybrid cell line 20HL21-4, which contains human chromosome 19, UV-induced mutagenesis at the APRT, HPRT and Na+/K+-ATPase loci was comparable to that in repair-proficient CHO AA8 cells, whereas cell line 20HL21-7, a reduced human-CHO hybrid not containing human chromosome 19, exhibited a hypermutable phenotype at all 3 loci indistinguishable from that of UV20 cells. The response of 20HL21-4 cells to UV cytotoxicity reflected substantial but incomplete restoration of wild-type UV cytotoxic response, whereas responses of UV20 and 20HL21-7 cell lines to UV cytotoxicity were essentially the same, reflecting several-fold UV hypersensitivity. Repair of UV-induced (5-6) cyclobutane dimers and (6-4) photoproducts was examined by radioimmunoassay; (6-4) photoproduct repair was deficient in UV20 and 20HL21-7 cell lines, and intermediate in 20HL21-4 cells relative to wild-type CHO AA8 cells. UV split-dose recovery in 20HL21-4 cells was also intermediate relative to AA8 cells. These results show that the human ERCC1 gene on chromosome 19 is responsible for substantial restoration of UV survival and mutation responses in repair-deficient UV20 cells, but only partially restores (6-4) UV photoproduct repair and UV split-dose recovery.

The induction of DNA single-strand breaks in C3H10T1/2 mouse fibroblasts and Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells by N-nitroso-N-2-fluorenylacetamide (N-NO-2-FAA) was demonstrated by the alkaline elution technique. Without metabolic activating system (i.e., rat liver S9 fraction), N-NO-2-FAA exhibits more direct and strong damaging effects on DNA than its parent compound, 2-FAA, at equal concentration in both cell lines. To compare the DNA-damaging potency of N-NO-2-FAA with other well-known carcinogens, such as benzo[a]pyrene, 2-nitrofluorene, and N-methyl-N'-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), the order of potency is as follows: MNNG (5 microM) greater than N-NO-2-FAA (150 microM) greater than benzo[a]pyrene (20 microM) at equitoxic concentrations, LD37, in the same cell system. Another parallel experiment indicated that N-NO-2-FAA could disrupt the superhelicity of circular plasmid DNA (pBR 322) at a dose range of 0.1-50 mM; however, a complete conversion to form III linear DNA was found at the highest concentration (50 mM). After treatment with various concentrations of N-NO-2-FAA, ouabain resistance (ouar) was induced in C3H10T1/2 cells, while both ouar and 6-thioguanine resistance (6-TGr) were induced in CHO cells. The mutation frequency in the Na+/K+-ATPase locus in CHO cells (1.5 X 10(-6) mutants/microM) is higher than that in C3H10T1/2 cells (1.0 X 10(-6) mutants/microM). The maximal mutation frequency at the Na+/K+-ATPase gene locus was attained with 30 min of exposure in C3H10T1/2 cells, whereas the mutation frequency in CHO cells continued to increase up to 80 min of treatment. Similarly, the maximal mutation frequency at the HPRT locus also continued to increase up to 80 min of treatment. Finally, a linear plot of alkali-labile lesions versus 6-TGr mutations was obtained; but the same relationship was not observed in the case of ouar mutation.

Several pharmaceutical drugs show strong hepatotoxicity during therapeutic use. We have studied 6 of them: aminophenazone, clofibrate, nifuroxazide, oxamniquine, perhexiline maleate, tienilic acid. Their mutagenicity was assessed in the Ames test on 6 strains of Salmonella typhimurium, and in V79 Chinese hamster lung cells using a rat-hepatocyte-mediated metabolic activation system and the HGPRT and Na+/K+ ATPase assay. Nifuroxazide was positive in the Ames test in two Salmonella strains (TA100, and TA100 Fr1). In the hepatocyte-mediated mammalian V79 cell system, nifuroxazide, clofibrate and aminophenazone were negative; oxamniquine and tienilic acid were positive with and without metabolic activation in tests looking for ouabain and 6-thioguanine resistance. Perhexiline maleate was negative for the direct induction of 6-thioguanine resistance without metabolic activation, and positive after metabolisation mediated by primary rat's hepatocytes. These results suggest the need for some caution in the use of some pharmaceutical drugs because of hepatotoxicity and because 3 out of 6 drugs were shown to be slightly mutagenic in mammalian cells.

Genetic effects of alkylation alone and combined with carbamoylation were studied following treatment of CHO-AT3-2 Chinese hamster cell line with N-nitroso-N-methylurea for 7 and 60 min. Gene mutations at HGPRT and Na+/K+-ATPase loci, micronuclei, cells with fragmented nuclei and lethality caused by NMU were recorded. Prolonged exposure to the mutagen made these effects more pronounced, particularly the fragmented nuclei and cell death. The combined action of the two mechanisms, therefore, enhanced the mutagenic effects of alkylation and expanded the range of DNA lesions towards greater incidence of gross damage to chromosomes and chromatids.

We have examined the response of Chinese hamster V79 cells to monochromatic light of selected wavelengths in the mid- to near-UV region, using cell survival and induction of mutants resistant to 6-thioguanine (6-TG) or ouabain (OUA) as end points. As the wavelength increased from 313 to 405 nm, the induction of mutants resistant to 6-TG and to OUA decreased to a greater degree than did cell survival. Cells resistant to OUA were induced with considerably lesser efficiency at wavelengths of 313 and 334 nm than cells resistant to 6-TG. No mutants resistant to either 6-TG or OUA were induced by 405-nm light, and no mutants resistant to OUA were induced by 365-nm light. Thus, cell killing and mutation induction have different action spectra, and furthermore, action spectra for mutation induction at the HGPRT and Na+/K+-ATPase loci are different from each other. These observations imply important differences in the cellular mechanisms, and/or lesions, for cell inactivation, induction of 6-TG and OUA resistance for V79 cells exposed to near-UV monochromatic light.
