Interaction of alkylating deoxyribooligonucleotide derivatives, bearing 4-[(N-2-chloroethyl-N-methyl)amino]benzylamine residues at their 5'-terminal phosphates, with mouse fibroblasts L929 and with ascite carcinoma cells Krebs 2 has been investigated. It was found, that the derivatives are taken up by the cells according to the endocytosis mechanism. At high concentration of the oligonucleotide derivatives in the cultivation medium (greater than 10 microM), the fluid phase endocytosis is the major pathway of uptake; binding of the derivatives by the cells is partially reversible and their intracellular mean concentration approaches 1/20 of their extracellular concentration. At low concentration of the oligonucleotide derivatives, the predominant mechanism is the more efficient adsorption endocytosis; at concentration of the derivatives less than 0.5 microM, their mean intracellular concentration exceeds that in the culture medium. Stability of the oligonucleotide derivatives in cells depends on their nucleotide composition. Their nucleolytic degradation rate is low enough to allow them to react with cellular biopolymers.

D004705	Endocytosis	Cellular uptake of extracellular materials within membrane-limited vacuoles or microvesicles. ENDOSOMES play a central role in endocytosis.	Endocytoses
D000477	Alkylating Agents	Highly reactive chemicals that introduce alkyl radicals into biologically active molecules and thereby prevent their proper functioning. Many are used as antineoplastic agents, but most are very toxic, with carcinogenic, mutagenic, teratogenic, and immunosuppressant actions. They have also been used as components in poison gases.
