Sister-chromatid exchange and chromosomal aberrations by DHAQ and related anthraquinone derivatives in Chinese hamster ovary cells. 1982

A Nishio, and F DeFeo, and C C Cheng, and E M Uyeki

The induction of sister-chromatid exchanges (SCEs) and chromosomal aberrations in Chinese hamster ovary cells by doxorubicin (adriamycin), DHAQ and several related anthraquinone derivatives was investigated. Doxorubicin, DHAQ and some of its analogues exhibited genotoxic effects at 1 nM concentration. Among them, DHAQ possessed the strongest activity. The DNA-damaging action of these substituted anthraquinone compounds correlated well with their antiproliferative effect on cells, and this action was detectable at concentrations significantly below that which caused inhibition of cell proliferation. Our data suggest that the genotoxic effects of the compounds occur prior to manifestation of their antiproliferative activity.

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.

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.
