[The role of DNA repair processes in the repair of cytogenetic disorders. The participation of slow to repair DNA damage in the repair of cytogenetic disorders].

Caffeine was used to study the kinetics of cytogenetic damages repair in Chinese hamster fibroblasts. Its half-time (90 min) was shown to correlate with that of repair of slowly repaired DNA damages. The caffeine-induced increase in the number of irreparable DNA damages, attributed to inhibition of double-strand break repair, is in a quantitative correlation with the effect of the cytogenetic damage modification.

[Role of the processes of repair of DNA damage in the repair of cytogenetic disorders. Participation of the repair of DNA single-strand breaks in the repair of cytogenetic disorders].

A comparison was made between the results of the effect of poly(ADP-ribosylation) inhibitors (e.g. nicotinamide and 3-aminobenzamide) and a chromatin proteinase inhibitor, phenylmethylsulfonylfluoride, on the cytogenetic damages repair, by a micronucleus test and DNA repair in Chinese hamster fibroblasts. The values of the repair half-periods (5-7 min for the cytogenetic damages and 5 min for the rapidly repaired DNA damages) and a similar modifying effect with regard to radiation cytogenetic damages and kinetics of DNA damages repair were found to be close. This confirms the contribution of repair of DNA single-strand breaks in the initiation of structural damages to chromosomes.

[Proteinase participation in chromosome radiation damage. Research on the action of phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride].

Phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, a chromatin proteinase inhibitor, caused a nearly twofold diminution of the cytogenetic injury and a twofold increase in the rate of DNA repair in gamma-irradiated (3-15 Gy) Chinese hamster fibroblasts. The effect of the inhibitor was mainly exhibited by a rapidly repaired (for 15-20 min) component of the cytogenetic damage. A simultaneous treatment with phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride and nicotinamide did not influence the effect of the proteinase inhibitor under study. The results obtained are indicative of poly (ADP-ribosylation)-independent contribution of chromatin proteinases to radiation-induced chromosome mutagenesis.
