[Relation between sister chromatid exchange and duration of human cell treatment with ethyleneimine derivatives]. 1981

G G Listopad, and A N Chebotarev

The sister chromatid exchange (SCE) induction by various concentrations of thiophosphamide and dipin was studied depending on the exposure time to mutagens. There is a linear relationship between the number of SCE and the increase in the concentration and exposure time regardless of the chemical structure of mutagens. The dose dependence (the product of the concentration magnitude by exposure) is also depictable by the linear law. A sudden leap of the number of SCE was observed during the transition from control to minimal exposure.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
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. Most lymphocytes can be classified as either T or B (with subpopulations of each), or NATURAL KILLER CELLS.	Lymphoid Cells,Cell, Lymphoid,Cells, Lymphoid,Lymphocyte,Lymphoid Cell
D009153	Mutagens	Chemical agents that increase the rate of genetic mutation by interfering with the function of nucleic acids. A clastogen is a specific mutagen that causes breaks in chromosomes.	Clastogen,Clastogens,Genotoxin,Genotoxins,Mutagen
D010879	Piperazines	Compounds that are derived from PIPERAZINE.
D003434	Crossing Over, Genetic	The reciprocal exchange of segments at corresponding positions along pairs of homologous CHROMOSOMES by symmetrical breakage and crosswise rejoining forming cross-over sites (HOLLIDAY JUNCTIONS) that are resolved during CHROMOSOME SEGREGATION. Crossing-over typically occurs during MEIOSIS but it may also occur in the absence of meiosis, for example, with bacterial chromosomes, organelle chromosomes, or somatic cell nuclear chromosomes.

D001389	Azirines	Unsaturated azacyclopropane compounds that are three-membered heterocycles of a nitrogen and two carbon atoms.	Azacyclopropanes, Unsaturated,Unsaturated Azacyclopropanes
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.

D013852	Thiotepa	A very toxic alkylating antineoplastic agent also used as an insect sterilant. It causes skin, gastrointestinal, CNS, and bone marrow damage. According to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985), thiotepa may reasonably be anticipated to be a carcinogen (Merck Index, 11th ed).
