Abstract
Spontaneous forward-reverse mutations were reported by us earlier in clinical samples from various types of cancers and in HeLa cells under normal culture conditions. To investigate the effects of chemical stimulations on such mutation cycles, the present study examined single nucleotide variations (SNVs) and copy number variations (CNVs) in HeLa and A549 cells exposed to wogonin-containing or acidic medium. In wogonin, both cell lines showed a mutation cycle during days 16-18. In acidic medium, both cell lines displayed multiple mutation cycles of different magnitudes. Genomic feature colocalization analysis suggests that CNVs tend to occur in expanded and unstable regions, and near promoters, histones, and non-coding transcription sites. Moreover, phenotypic variations in cell morphology occurred during the forward-reverse mutation cycles under both types of chemical treatments. In conclusion, chemical stresses imposed by wogonin or acidity promoted cyclic forward-reverse mutations in both HeLa and A549 cells to different extents.
