Genetic control of the induction of gastric tumors by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) was studied in susceptible ACI rats, resistant Buffalo rats, and their F1 and F2 offspring. Both sexes of all strains, initially 7 to 9 weeks old, were given MNNG at a concentration of 83 micrograms/ml in their drinking water for 32 weeks and were sacrificed at experimental Week 72. The incidence o...
The preponderance of G:C to A:T transitions in inherited and somatic human mutations has led to the hypothesis that some of these mutations arise as a result of formation of O(6)-methylguanine in DNA. To test this hypothesis, the fine structure map of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced mutations was determined in human lymphoblastoid cells in the human hypoxanthine-guanine-phos...
INTRODUCTION This study was designed to evaluate the chemopreventive effects of ethanolic Ocimum sanctum (OS) leaf extract on cell proliferation, apoptosis and angiogenesis during N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced gastric carcinogenesis. METHODS The rats were divided into four groups of ten each. Rats in group one were given MNNG (150 mg/kg body weight) by intragastric intub...
Mutagenesis induced by N-methyl-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) and dimethylnitrosamine (DMN) in Salmonella TA 1530 was inhibited by ascorbate. Inhibition of MNNGinduced mutagenesis resulted from a reaction between ascorbate and MNNG that led to consumption of MNNG. The rate of this reaction was considerably enhanced by catalytic amounts of Cu(ll) and Fe(lll). No direct reaction between DMN and ascor...
The purpose of the studies reported here was to compare the response of noninitiated and initiated primary rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) cell cultures to the mouse skin tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). The endpoints measured were number of cells per culture, colony-forming efficiency, subculturability, and colony formation in soft agarose. Primary RTE cell cultures wer...
The effects were studied of NaCl on the production of gastric carcinomas by N-methyl-N-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) and by 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide (NQO) in male Wistar rats. Nine groups of rats were treated as follows: Group 1 was given 50 mg MNNG/liter and 6 g NaCl solution/liter to drink and was fed a stock diet supplemented with 10% NaCl. Group 2 received 1 ml saturated NaCl once a week ...
To elucidate the mechanism of antimutagenicity of caraway, we examined the effects of caraway seed extract on N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG)-induced mutagenesis in DNA methyltransferase-deficient Salmonella typhimurium strains, O6-methylguanine DNA adduct formation, and thiol content in S. typhimurium cells. MNNG was highly mutagenic for ogt- strains YG7104 (ogt- ada+) and YG7108 (...
DNA-alkylating agents in combination with poly (ADP-ribose) (PAR) synthesis inhibitors are a promising treatment for cancer. In search of other efficacious alternatives, we hypothesized that the absence of poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG), which leads to the inhibition of PAR hydrolysis, would lead to increased DNA alkylation after treatment with low doses of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosogu...
N-nitroso compounds (NOCs) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation have been suggested to play a role in the development of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). Although chemicals have been shown to be a risk factor contributing to the carcinogenesis of NPC, the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. We demonstrated recently that N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) enhances the geno...
Both the lethal and the mutagenic actions of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) on cells of Streptococcus pneumoniae were greatly potentiated by a component of yeast extract added to the cellular environment. This component was found to be an oxidation product of glutathione, glutathione disulfide (GSSG). At low concentrations in the medium, both GSSG and glutathione potentiated MNNG a...
