Condensate from eastern white pine, one of the commercially most important species of tree in the northeastern United States, was treated for potential cytotoxicity and genotoxicity in human peripheral blood lymphocytes in the absence of S-9 activation. Cytotoxicity was evaluated by mitotic index (MI) determination and proliferative rate index. Genotoxicity was measured by the chromosome aberration (CA) assay and sister chromatid exchange (SCE) analysis. Both cytotoxic and genotoxic effects were observed with laboratory-generated eastern white pine condensate. The MI data showed an inverse correlation between the MI and treatment dosage. A dose response curve was observed using the CA assay and also with the SCE analysis. The present findings thus corroborate the results from Ames testing and represent the only information currently available on the cytotoxic and genotoxic potential of these chemicals.

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

D003603 Cytotoxins Substances that are toxic to cells; they may be involved in immunity or may be contained in venoms. These are distinguished from CYTOSTATIC AGENTS in degree of effect. Some of them are used as CYTOTOXIC ANTIBIOTICS. The mechanism of action of many of these are as ALKYLATING AGENTS or MITOSIS MODULATORS.

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.
