Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Ouabain-resistance mutation and cell cycle-dependent transformation were studied concurrently in the C3H/10T1/2 cell line treated with N-nitroso-2-acetylaminofluorene (N-NO-AAF) or N-nitroso-N-2-fluorenylacetamide. N-NO-AAF is a new direct-acting mutagen that exhibits a very short half-life (34 min) in complete medium independent of cell number seeded. With 0.1-0.3 mM of N-NO-AAF, cytotoxicity was noted after exposure for 2 h, but another phase of cytotoxicity was observed between 8 and 24 h. N-NO-AAF was more toxic than its parent compound 2-AAF. Moreover, maximal mutation frequency at the Na+/K(+)-ATPase gene locus (ouar mutation) was attained within 30 or 40 min of exposure, dependent on dosage of N-NO-AAF. With 2-AAF, 2-AF and 2-nitrofluorene, however, no detectable mutants were found under the same conditions. In cell cycle-dependent transformation assays, cells were synchronized by release from confluence-induced arrest of proliferation, 2 concentrations of N-NO-AAF were added for 2 h at various intervals during the cell cycle. The results clearly revealed that cells in 2 specific time intervals were susceptible to malignant transformation, i.e., at 10 and 18 h (early S phase) after release from the block.
