The FRAME in vitro cytotoxicity assay and a physicochemical parameter for metal ions (i.e., "softness," sigma p) were assessed for their ability to predict the in vivo acute toxicities of 52 metallic compounds. The in vitro assay was found to be more useful, since it measures the toxicity of the whole compound, as does the in vivo method. The softness parameter applies to the metal ion only, so it cannot be used to predict the toxicity of compounds containing relatively nontoxic metal ions and toxic anions (e.g., potassium fluoride). The in vitro toxicity values (expressed as ID50 values, i.e., concentrations of test chemicals that reduced the final cellular protein content of test cultures by 50% in comparison with appropriate solvent control cultures) correlated better with mouse ip LD50 values than with rat oral LD50 values.

FRAME体外细胞毒性试验和金属离子的理化参数(即“柔软度”sigma p)被评估为它们预测52种金属化合物体内急性毒性的能力。体外试验被发现更有用,因为它测量了整个化合物的毒性,就像体内方法一样。柔软度参数仅适用于金属离子,因此不能用于预测含有相对无毒金属离子和有毒阴离子(例如氟化钾)的化合物的毒性。体外毒性值(以ID50值表示,即与适当的溶剂对照培养物相比,试验化学物质的浓度使试验培养物的最终细胞蛋白质含量降低50%)与小鼠ip LD50值的相关性优于与大鼠口服LD50值的相关性。

The activities of smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and cytosolic xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes were studied in two established renal tubular cell lines, LLC-PK1 and RK-L (rat kidney, Lübeck). The glutathione content in both cell lines was about 20-fold higher than in rat kidney homogenates; this is explained by a 20- to 50-fold lower activity of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase in the cell lines. Among SER enzymes, the cytochrome P-450-dependent dimethylhydrazine demethylase was in the same range in both cell lines as compared with rat kidney S9 fraction. Pretreatment with phenobarbital (0.1 mM in the culture medium for 3 d) did not induce SER or cytosolic enzyme activities. The glutathione content in both epithelial cell lines can be modified by an inhibitor of GSH synthesis (buthionine sulfoximine, BSO), whereas inhibition of gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (acivicin) did not significantly increase the GSH-concentration. Despite these biochemical characteristics, the utility of the new RK-L-line needs to be evaluated in experimental studies on renal transport processes and metabolism as well as cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of xenobiotics.

研究了两种已建立的肾小管细胞系LLC-PK1和RK-L(大鼠肾,l beck)中光滑内质网(SER)和胞质外生代谢酶的活性。两种细胞系的谷胱甘肽含量均比大鼠肾匀浆高约20倍;这可以用细胞系中γ -谷氨酰转肽酶活性降低20- 50倍来解释。在SER酶中,细胞色素p -450依赖性二甲基肼去甲基酶在两种细胞系中与大鼠肾S9组分在相同的范围内。用苯巴比妥预处理(0.1 mM培养液中3 d)不诱导SER或胞质酶活性。两种上皮细胞系的谷胱甘肽含量均可被GSH合成抑制剂(buthionine亚砜胺,BSO)修饰,而γ -谷氨酰转肽酶(acivicin)的抑制并未显著增加GSH浓度。尽管有这些生化特征,新的rk -l系的效用需要在肾脏运输过程和代谢以及外源性药物的细胞毒性和遗传毒性的实验研究中进行评估。

Oxidative stress injury studied in isolated intact cells. 氧化应激损伤在分离完整细胞中的研究。

G Bellomo, F Mirabelli

Oxidative damage produced by oxygen free radicals has been investigated in various mammalian cells in culture. Incubation of these cells with redox cycling quinones resulted in a stimulation of superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide formation. Further metabolism of H2O2 by glutathione peroxidase caused oxidation and depletion of cellular glutathione followed by oxidation of protein sulfhydryl groups and cytotoxicity. Several targets susceptible to oxidative modification have been identified, including the mitochondrial, endoplasmic reticular, and plasma membrane Ca2+-translocases. As result, a marked and sustained increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration occurred, followed by the activation of some catabolic Ca2+-dependent processes, namely phospholipases, proteases, and endonucleases. In addition, an impairment of the transmembranal signal-transducing system(s) was found. Recent investigations demonstrated that several modifications occur also in the cytoskeleton of oxidative stress-challenged cells. They mainly consist of oxidative actin cross-linking and dissociation of the cytoskeleton from the plasma membrane. All these alterations appear to contribute to the multifactorial process underlying the irreversible cell injury caused by oxidative stress.

氧自由基对多种哺乳动物细胞的氧化损伤进行了研究。这些细胞与氧化还原循环醌的孵育导致超氧阴离子和过氧化氢的形成刺激。谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶对H2O2的进一步代谢引起细胞谷胱甘肽的氧化和耗竭,随后是蛋白质巯基的氧化和细胞毒性。已经确定了几个易受氧化修饰的靶点,包括线粒体、内质网和质膜Ca2+转位酶。结果,胞质内游离Ca2+浓度显著且持续增加,随后激活一些分解代谢Ca2+依赖过程,即磷脂酶、蛋白酶和内切酶。此外,发现了跨膜信号转导系统的损伤。最近的研究表明,氧化应激细胞的细胞骨架也发生了一些修饰。它们主要由氧化肌动蛋白交联和细胞骨架与质膜的分离组成。所有这些改变似乎都促成了氧化应激引起的不可逆细胞损伤的多因素过程。

Comparative cytotoxicity of aflatoxin B1 and saxitoxin in cell cultures. 黄曲霉毒素B1和石蜡毒素在细胞培养中的细胞毒性比较。
Pub Date : 1987-04-01
J Gabliks, S Barter

Human and animal cell cultures were evaluated for their susceptibility to two environmental toxins found as contaminants in human food supplies: aflatoxin B1, a hepatotoxin produced by the mold Aspergillus flavus, and saxitoxin, a paralytic neurotoxin produced by the marine dinoflagellate Gonyaulax catenella. Both toxins cause food poisoning in humans and other animals. The acute cytotoxicity of both toxins was measured and compared by inhibition of cell growth and by progressive cytopathogenicity resulting in cell destruction. Aflatoxin B1 was cytotoxic to all of the 11 primary kidney cultures derived from susceptible animals. The cell growth inhibition 10% values (TD10) ranged from 0.02 to 6.0 micrograms/ml: mouse (TD10 = 0.02 micrograms), guinea pig (0.03 micrograms), rat (0.07 micrograms), hamster (0.16 micrograms), monkey (0.1 microgram), human (0.7-1.5 micrograms), chick (0.05 micrograms), and duck (6.0 micrograms). The corresponding TD50 levels were about 10 times higher concentrations and caused cell destruction within 2 d. Saxitoxin did not induce cytotoxicity manifestations in cultures derived from susceptible species--mouse kidney, human carcinoma HeLa line, chick embryo, and goldfish fin (CAR) cell line--at high concentration levels up to 5 micrograms/ml. When the same toxin preparation at only 1 microgram was injected into mice, the animals died immediately. The results indicate that animal cell cultures are useful for studies of general cytotoxins that affect common essential metabolism but cannot be used to detect environmental toxins that cause toxic manifestations by an interference with specific physiological functions of organ systems.

人类和动物细胞培养物对人类食物中发现的两种环境毒素的易感性进行了评估:黄曲霉毒素B1(一种由霉菌黄曲霉产生的肝毒素)和石蜡毒素(一种由海洋鞭毛菌钩胞Gonyaulax catenella产生的麻痹性神经毒素)。这两种毒素都会导致人类和其他动物食物中毒。两种毒素的急性细胞毒性是通过抑制细胞生长和渐进的细胞致病性导致细胞破坏来测量和比较的。黄曲霉毒素B1对来自易感动物的11个原代肾脏培养物均有细胞毒性。细胞生长抑制10%值(TD10)范围为0.02 ~ 6.0微克/毫升:小鼠(TD10 = 0.02微克)、豚鼠(0.03微克)、大鼠(0.07微克)、仓鼠(0.16微克)、猴(0.1微克)、人(0.7 ~ 1.5微克)、鸡(0.05微克)、鸭(6.0微克)。相应的TD50浓度约为10倍,并在2天内引起细胞破坏。在易感物种(小鼠肾、人癌HeLa系、鸡胚和金鱼鳍(CAR)细胞系)的培养物中,当浓度高达5微克/毫升时,石蛤毒素没有引起细胞毒性表现。当同样的毒素制剂注射到小鼠体内时,只注射1微克,小鼠立即死亡。结果表明,动物细胞培养物可用于研究影响普通基本代谢的一般细胞毒素,但不能用于检测通过干扰器官系统特定生理功能而引起毒性表现的环境毒素。

Previously, we have shown that Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells are useful for quantifying chemical-induced gene mutations. We have defined the conditions of a Multiplex CHO System which permits determination of mutagen-induced chromosome aberration, and sister chromatid exchange (SCE) in addition to cytotoxicity and gene mutation in the same treated culture. This allows us to extend the spectrum of quantitative mutagenesis to include clastogenic endpoints. In the present study, we used four carcinogenic/noncarcinogenic pairs to validate the relative utility and sensitivity of each endpoint, and to study the interrelationship of these four distinct biological effects. These compounds include the direct-acting carcinogens N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG), ICR 170 and their noncarcinogenic analogue N-methyl-N'-nitroguanidine (MNG) and ICR 170-OH, and the procarcinogens benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and dimethylnitrosamine (DMN) and their noncarcinogenic analogues pyrene and dimethylamine (DMA) respectively. A rat liver homogenate preparation (S9) was used to assay for the biological activities of procarcinogens. Under our experimental conditions, we observed that carcinogens DMN, B[a]P, MNNG and ICR 170, but not their noncarcinogenic counterparts, showed all four biological effects. Our studies with these chemicals showed that cytotoxicity does not necessarily correlate with any of the genetic endpoints. On a molar basis, noncarcinogens, pyrene and ICR 170-OH show similar toxicity to carcinogens B[a]P and ICR 170, respectively. The other two non-carcinogenic analogues, DMA and MNG, exhibit minimal toxicity at concentrations 10-1,000 times higher than cytotoxic concentrations of the corresponding carcinogens, DMN and MNNG. In general, gene mutation and SCE are more sensitive than chromosome aberration assay. The gene mutation assay is more specific than SCE and chromosome aberration assays since none of the noncarcinogens exhibit a detectable response in the gene mutational assay. ICR 170 and MNNG are much more active than B[a]P and DMN as ranked on a molar basis. These results indicate that the Multiplex CHO System is capable of discriminating divergent structural classes of carcinogenic and noncarcinogenic compounds, such as the eight chemicals chosen for our study.

先前,我们已经证明中国仓鼠卵巢(CHO)细胞可用于定量化学诱导的基因突变。我们已经定义了多重CHO系统的条件,该系统可以测定诱变剂诱导的染色体畸变,姐妹染色单体交换(SCE)以及相同处理培养中的细胞毒性和基因突变。这使我们能够扩展定量诱变的范围,以包括致裂终点。在本研究中,我们使用四种致癌/非致癌对来验证每个终点的相对效用和敏感性,并研究这四种不同生物效应的相互关系。这些化合物包括直接作用致癌物n -甲基-n′-硝基-n -亚硝基胍(MNNG)、icr170及其非致癌物类似物n -甲基-n′-硝基胍(MNG)和icr170 - oh,以及致癌物苯并[a]芘(B[a]P)和二甲基亚硝胺(DMN)及其非致癌物类似物芘和二甲胺(DMA)。采用大鼠肝脏匀浆制剂(S9)测定致癌物原的生物活性。在我们的实验条件下,我们观察到致癌物DMN, B[a]P, MNNG和icr170,而不是它们的非致癌物,表现出这四种生物效应。我们对这些化学物质的研究表明,细胞毒性不一定与任何遗传终点相关。在摩尔基础上,非致癌物,芘和icr170 - oh分别表现出与致癌物B[a]P和icr170相似的毒性。另外两种非致癌类似物,DMA和MNG,在浓度比相应致癌物DMN和MNNG的细胞毒性浓度高10- 1000倍时表现出最小的毒性。总的来说,基因突变和SCE比染色体畸变检测更敏感。基因突变试验比SCE和染色体畸变试验更具有特异性,因为在基因突变试验中没有一种非致癌物表现出可检测的反应。icr170和MNNG在摩尔基础上比B[a]P和DMN更活跃。这些结果表明,多重CHO系统能够区分不同结构类别的致癌和非致癌化合物,例如我们研究中选择的八种化学物质。

Lack of effect of glutathione on the binding of dimethylnitrosamine to DNA in vitro. 缺乏谷胱甘肽对二甲基亚硝胺与DNA结合的影响。

The possibility that glutathione (GSH) S-transferases may affect microsome-mediated methylation of DNA by dimethylnitrosamine (DMN) in vitro has been investigated using aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) as a positive control. Hamster liver microsomes were incubated with either [14C]DMN or [3H]AFB1 and calf thymus DNA, with or without GSH and hamster cytosol. Although a significant amount of DMN was metabolized, GSH alone or in conjunction with cytosol or purified GSH S-transferases did not affect the binding of 14C to DNA and the amount of 7-methylguanine formed. However with AFB1, a significant reduction in both its binding to DNA and in the formation of AFB1-N7Gua adduct with a concomitant increase in AFB1-GSH conjugation was observed, suggesting that the test system was functioning effectively.

以黄曲霉毒素B1 (AFB1)为阳性对照,研究了谷胱甘肽(GSH) s -转移酶在体外影响二甲基亚硝胺(DMN)介导的DNA甲基化的可能性。用[14C]DMN或[3H]AFB1和小牛胸腺DNA,加或不加谷胱甘肽和仓鼠细胞液孵育仓鼠肝微粒体。虽然代谢了大量的DMN,但GSH单独或与胞浆或纯化的GSH s -转移酶联合使用并不影响14C与DNA的结合和7-甲基鸟嘌呤的形成量。然而,对于AFB1,观察到其与DNA的结合和AFB1- n7gua加合物的形成都显着减少,同时AFB1- gsh结合的增加,这表明测试系统有效地起作用。

Toxicity testing with animal viruses: I. Vaccinia virus growth as a model system for teratogens. 动物病毒毒性试验:1 .牛痘病毒生长作为致畸物的模型系统。
Pub Date : 1987-04-01
S J Keller

A simple, rapid, inexpensive test for teratogens has been developed using vaccinia virus growth in primate cell cultures. Eighty-four percent of the test compounds that are known to produce teratogenesis in laboratory animals, prevented the formation of viable virus at dosages that did not cause any observable cytotoxicity to uninfected cells. The virus test had one false positive and 5 false negatives out of 74 test compounds. Moreover, the 50% inhibitory dose in vitro (RD50) was significantly correlated (p less than 0.001) with the in vivo, lowest reported teratogenic dose (LTD). The RD50 was not correlated with the in vivo lethal dose (LD50). Thus the virus test appears to be more sensitive to development than to general toxicity. A comparison of the in vitro RD50 with the in vivo, rodent LTD indicated that the two tests were equally predictive of human teratogenesis.

利用牛痘病毒在灵长类动物细胞培养物中生长,开发了一种简单、快速、廉价的致畸物检测方法。已知在实验动物中产生致畸的试验化合物中,有84%在不对未感染细胞造成任何可观察到的细胞毒性的剂量下阻止了活病毒的形成。在74种测试化合物中,病毒检测结果为1例假阳性,5例假阴性。此外,50%体外抑制剂量(RD50)与体内最低致畸剂量(LTD)显著相关(p < 0.001)。RD50与体内致死剂量(LD50)无相关性。因此,病毒试验似乎对发育比一般毒性更敏感。体外RD50和体内RD50的比较表明,这两种方法对人类致畸的预测是相同的。

A comparison of the in vitro RD50 with the in vivo, rodent LTD indicated that the two tests were equally predictive of human teratogenesis.</p>","PeriodicalId":77750,"journal":{"name":"Molecular toxicology","volume":"1 2-3","pages":"261-76"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1987-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"14261946","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}

Screening for colon carcinogens--a new strategy. 筛查结肠癌——一种新策略。

The major defect of in vivo assays for mutagenic carcinogens may be tissue specificity: a cancer bioassay of a single tissue would not be expected to detect all carcinogens, so the failure of a genetic assay in a single tissue to detect all carcinogens should not be surprising. In the search for an environmental carcinogen responsible for a specific cancer in a particular population, however, it may be that tissue specificity can be advantageous. Assays for genotoxicity directly in the target cells may have higher success rates with fewer false positives than assays in tissues of convenience. For example, to facilitate the search for one or more dietary carcinogens responsible for the high rate of colon cancer in North America, assays for genotoxicity in the target cells themselves, the colonic epithelium, may be useful. To this end we have investigated assays for three different endpoints: nuclear anomalies, sister chromatid exchanges, and gene mutations. Our experience may prove useful for others considering a similar strategy.

体内诱变致癌物检测的主要缺陷可能是组织特异性:单个组织的癌症生物检测不可能检测到所有致癌物,因此单个组织的基因检测无法检测到所有致癌物不应该令人惊讶。然而,在寻找导致特定人群中特定癌症的环境致癌物时,组织特异性可能是有利的。直接在靶细胞中测定遗传毒性比在方便的组织中测定具有更高的成功率和更少的假阳性。例如,为了寻找一种或多种导致北美地区结肠癌高发病率的膳食致癌物,对目标细胞(结肠上皮细胞)本身进行遗传毒性测定可能是有用的。为此,我们研究了三个不同终点的检测方法:核异常、姐妹染色单体交换和基因突变。我们的经验可能对其他考虑类似策略的国家有用。

Which rules for assembling short-term test batteries to predict carcinogenicity? 装配短期测试电池以预测致癌性的规则是什么?
Pub Date : 1987-04-01
R Benigni, A Giuliani

The main theme of this paper is to describe the basic requirements for assembling reliable batteries of short-term tests for carcinogenicity prediction. For this purpose, a subset of the data base generated by the International Program for Evaluation of Short-Term Tests for Carcinogens (IPESTTC) has been studied by different data-analysis methods. Much attention has been focused on the methodological dimensions of the problem, at the level of selection of both data and statistical techniques. Twenty-one of the most widely used short-term assays were considered. An exploratory study of the data base was first performed by factor analysis, showing similarities and dissimilarities between test performances and confirming our previous results obtained by cluster analysis. In this way the assays were divided into three groups on the basis of their responses to the chemicals. The Salmonella assay was in the central group, characterized by equilibrated performances in respect to sensitivity and specificity for carcinogens. Tests complementary to the Salmonella assay for sensitivity and specificity, respectively, were identified as well. A preliminary comparison of the IPESTTC results with the Gene-Tox data base is also presented. The test performances in respect to carcinogenicity prediction were then evaluated by discriminant analysis. When the subset of data was considered as a whole, the procedure resulted in a linear discriminant function able to correctly identify 84.2% of carcinogens and 83.3% of noncarcinogens. The correctly identified carcinogens summed to about 90% when adequate batteries of tests were used. This analysis yielded a number of observations. (1) Together with the selectivity indices (such as sensitivity and specificity), the operational complementarity between test performances must be ascertained and taken into account. (2) The batteries most effective at predicting carcinogenic activity were composed of three tests, one for each group. This finding converged with the fact that the three classes of assays were clearly differentiated for sensitivity and specificity, and in this sense were complementary to each other. (3) The performances of the batteries were not improved by adding more tests, but in several cases the opposite effect occurred. (4) Estimation of the probability of the chemicals of being carcinogenic, starting from qualitative genotoxicity data, is possible.

本文的主要主题是描述用于致癌性预测短期试验的可靠电池组装的基本要求。为此目的,通过不同的数据分析方法研究了国际短期致癌物试验评估计划(IPESTTC)生成的数据库的一个子集。在选择数据和统计技术两方面,对问题的方法方面给予了很大的关注。考虑了21种最广泛使用的短期测定法。首先通过因子分析对数据库进行了探索性研究,显示了测试性能之间的异同,并证实了我们之前通过聚类分析得到的结果。通过这种方法,实验对象根据对化学物质的反应分为三组。沙门氏菌检测处于中心组,其特点是在致癌物的敏感性和特异性方面具有平衡的性能。此外,还确定了与沙门氏菌检测相补充的敏感性和特异性检测方法。本文还介绍了IPESTTC结果与Gene-Tox数据库的初步比较。然后用判别分析评价了试验在致癌性预测方面的性能。当将数据子集作为一个整体考虑时,该过程产生了一个线性判别函数,能够正确识别84.2%的致癌物和83.3%的非致癌物。当使用足够的测试电池时,正确识别的致癌物总数约为90%。这一分析得出了一些观察结果。(1)与选择性指标(如灵敏度和特异性)一起,必须确定和考虑测试性能之间的操作互补性。(2)预测致癌活性最有效的电池由三个测试组成,每组一个。这一发现与以下事实相一致:三类检测在敏感性和特异性上有明确的区分,在这个意义上是相互补充的。(3)增加试验次数并不能提高电池的性能,在某些情况下反而会产生相反的效果。(4)从定性的遗传毒性数据出发,估计化学物质致癌的概率是可能的。
