The effect of dibromodulcitol on resting and dividing lymphoid cells. 1976

A Jeney, and B W Fox, and J V Garrett, and M Fox, and J Holland

The effect of dibromodulcitol (DBD) on the incorporation of labelled precursors into DNA and RNA fractions of PHA-stimulated human lymphocytes and of P388F lymphoma cells at various stages of their growth was studied. Both cell systems showed sensitivity to the drug within the concentration rage of 1-10 mug/ml. When DBD was added before phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), h.han RNA. In contrast, by adding DBD after PHA, RNA labelling was much more inhibited than DNA. In the latter case, the decrease in DNA labelling occurred only 24 h after drug treatment whereas RNA labelling was decreased 1 h after treatment. Levels of DBD which normally produced 30% inhibition in plating efficiency of P388F lymphoma cells affected uridine-5-T incorporation to a different extent at different stages of growth of the culture. Enhanced RNA labelling occurred in early exponential stage while at later stages of growth, RNA synthesis was depressed.

D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.

D008214 Lymphocytes White blood cells formed in the body's lymphoid tissue. The nucleus is round or ovoid with coarse, irregularly clumped chromatin while the cytoplasm is typically pale blue with azurophilic (if any) granules.
