DNA polymerase beta (pol beta) is a constitutively expressed DNA repair enzyme in vertebrate cells. Yet, it had been shown previously that the pol beta mRNA level increases in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells within 4 h after treatment with several monofunctional DNA damaging agents, notably, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Herein we report that a transfected pol beta promoter fus...
More than 200 mutants of Aspergillus nidulans were isolated as hypersensitive to the monofunctional alkylating agent MNNG and/or UV-irradiation (designated nuv mutants). Of these, 23 were selected for further characterization. All were markedly hypersensitive to both MNNG and the quasi-UV-mimetic mutagen 4-NQO. The hypersensitive phenotype of each mutant was shown to result from mutation of a s...
The human lymphoblastoid MT1 B-cell line was previously isolated as one of a series of mutant cells able to survive the cytotoxic effects of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). MT1 cells nevertheless remain sensitive to mutagenesis by MNNG and display a mutator phenotype. These phenotypes have been attributed to a single genetic alteration postulated to confer a defect in strand-specif...
Methylating agents of S(N)1 type are widely used in cancer chemotherapy, but their mode of action is poorly understood. In particular, it is unclear how the primary cytotoxic lesion, O(6)-methylguanine ((Me)G), causes cell death. One hypothesis stipulates that binding of mismatch repair (MMR) proteins to (Me)G/T mispairs arising during DNA replication triggers cell-cycle arrest and cell death. ...
Human beings are exposed to a multitude of carcinogens in their environment, and most cancers are considered to be chemically induced. Here we examined differences in genetic alterations in rat forestomach tumors induced by repeated exposure to a genotoxic carcinogen, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) or N-methylnitrosourethane (MNUR), and chronic treatment with a non-genotoxic carcin...
In previous studies, treatment with 1-methyl-3-nitro-1-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) enhanced malignant transformation of immortal human epidermal (RHEK-1) keratinocytes. In contrast, arsenic (As) alone or in a mixture of As, cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), and lead (Pb) inhibited this process. Microarray analysis showed unique gene expression patterns in RHEK-1 exposed to MNNG, As, or the metal mixture...
objective(s): gastric cancer is the first and second leading cause of cancer related death in iranian men and women, respectively. gastric cancer management is based on the surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. in the present study, for the first time, the beneficial effect of saffron (crocus sativus l.) aqueous extract (sae) on the 1-methyl-3-nitro-1-nitrosoguanidine (mnng)-induced gastric c...
The mismatch repair proteins function upstream in the DNA damage signaling pathways induced by the DNA methylating agent N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). We report that MSH2 (MutS homolog 2) protein interacts with the ATR (ATM- and Rad3-related) kinase to form a signaling module and regulate the phosphorylation of Chk1 and SMC1 (structure maintenance of chromosome 1). We found that ...
The development of transformed colonies and concomitant changes in proliferative and nonproliferative cell compartments were studied in rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) cell cultures following exposure to N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Primary RTE cells were plated onto 3T3 feeder layers and treated with MNNG (0.25 micrograms/ml) or solvent. Seven days later, the feeder cells were re...
Excessive activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) leads to NAD(+) depletion and cell death during ischemia and other conditions that generate extensive DNA damage. When activated by DNA strand breaks, PARP1 uses NAD(+) as substrate to form ADP-ribose polymers on specific acceptor proteins. These polymers are in turn rapidly degraded by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG), a ubiqu...
