Induction of sister-chromatid exchanges in Chinese hamster ovary cells by the biotic ketoaldehyde methylglyoxal. 1985

P Faggin, and A M Bassi, and R Finollo, and G Brambilla

The number of sister-chromatid exchanges (SCEs) per metaphase was determined in Chinese hamster ovary cells after 16 h exposure to methylglyoxal (MG) concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 0.75 mM. MG produced an increase of SCE frequency that proved to be dose-dependent, and to reach a maximum of 2 X baseline at the highest nontoxic concentration (0.5 mM).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D010053 Ovary The reproductive organ (GONADS) in female animals. In vertebrates, the ovary contains two functional parts: the OVARIAN FOLLICLE for the production of female germ cells (OOGENESIS); and the endocrine cells (GRANULOSA CELLS; THECA CELLS; and LUTEAL CELLS) for the production of ESTROGENS and PROGESTERONE. Ovaries
D011765 Pyruvaldehyde An organic compound used often as a reagent in organic synthesis, as a flavoring agent, and in tanning. It has been demonstrated as an intermediate in the metabolism of acetone and its derivatives in isolated cell preparations, in various culture media, and in vivo in certain animals. Acetylformaldehyde,Methylglyoxal,Oxopropanal,Pyruvic Aldehyde,Aldehyde, Pyruvic
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D003412 Cricetulus A genus of the family Muridae consisting of eleven species. C. migratorius, the grey or Armenian hamster, and C. griseus, the Chinese hamster, are the two species used in biomedical research.

D006224 Cricetinae A subfamily in the family MURIDAE, comprising the hamsters. Four of the more common genera are Cricetus, CRICETULUS; MESOCRICETUS; and PHODOPUS. Cricetus,Hamsters,Hamster
D000447 Aldehydes Organic compounds containing a carbonyl group in the form -CHO. Aldehyde
D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA. Animal,Metazoa,Animalia
D012854 Sister Chromatid Exchange An exchange of segments between the sister chromatids of a chromosome, either between the sister chromatids of a meiotic tetrad or between the sister chromatids of a duplicated somatic chromosome. Its frequency is increased by ultraviolet and ionizing radiation and other mutagenic agents and is particularly high in BLOOM SYNDROME.
