    Notes: Summary The nature of the post-irradiation lesions and processes leading to cellular reproductive death or survival were investigated in mouse lymphoblastic leukemia L5178Y-S (LY-S) cells. Post-(x-)irradiation incubation at 25° C protects LY-S cells against the fixation of biologically expressed damage which takes place at 37° C. An optimal condition for the repair of damage, assayed in split-dose experiments as split-dose recovery (SDR), is 1 h at 37° C followed by 4 h holding at 25° C prior to the second half of a split dose, or 5 h holding at 25° C without a 37° C incubation during the interval between doses. Longer incubations at 37° C resulted in progressively decreased survivals. Postirradiation inhibition of DNA synthesis at 37° C was observed only during the first 30 min; thereafter,3H-dThdR incorporation washigher than in unirradiated controls. Theexcess synthesis effect was removed by shifting irradiated cells to 25° C holding. The inhibition observed at 25° C was reversed by shifting to 37° C. Thus the degree of postirradiation DNA synthesis is inversely related to SDR. DNA filter elution shows complete strand break repair by 20 min at 37° C, and by 3 h at 25° C; DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair plateaus at 80% (37° C) and 60% (25° C) after 90 min. An inverse correlation was found between total strand break repair rate, as assayed by filter elution methods, and cell survival. This work was supported by a grant from The Mathers Charitable Foundation.

    Notes: Abstract Cells from the L5178Y murine lymphoma subline LY-R are twice as resistent to killing by ionizing radiation than the subline LY-S. In contrast, LY-R cells are more sensitive to killing by H2O2, the effect being more pronounced at 37 °C than 0 °C. Initial DNA damage after H2O2 treatment (both temperatures, 5 min) has been estimated by the ‘comet’ assay (single-cell gel electrophoresis) and fluorescent halo technique. According to both methods, the initial damage is significantly higher in LY-R cells, particularly that inflicted at O °C. Differences between DNA unwinding and rewinding abilities at pH 9 and 6.9 (estimated by the fluorescent halo technique) point to a considerable difference in pH-9-labile damage between the sublines, as observed previously for x-irradiated cells (Kapiszewska et al. 1992). In contrast to findings with x-irradiated cells, however, after H2O2 treatment this damage is more extensive in LY-R cells than in LY-S cells. Thus, the initial pH-9-labile damage corresponds to the pattern of sensitivity to H2O2 and x-rays. We suggest that this is caused by different proportions of cuprous and ferric ions found in the nuclei of LY sublines and by the different ability of these ions to react with H2O2 and water radiolysis products. The copper/iron ratio in the nucleus is 1.31 in LY-R cells and 4.84 in LY-S cells.

    Notes: Abstract In the preceding paper we described the properties of nucleoids analyzed with the fluorescent halo assay at pH 6.9 and 9, as well as in the presence of reducing and chelating agents and after X-irradiation. We found analogies between the properties of type I and II nucleoids, as examined by Lebkowski and Laemmli (1982), and nucleoids analyzed with the fluorescent halo assay. We concluded that radiation-inflicted damage at two levels of DNA folding is measured at pH 6.9 and 9. In this paper we examined repair of damage to the nucleoid structure as assayed by the fluorescent halo method in X-irradiated L5178Y (LY) sublines; R (radiation resistant,D 0=1.4 Gy) and S (radiation sensitive,D 0=0.5 Gy). Halo diameters were measured after cell lysis in the presence of propidium iodide (PI; 0.5 to 50 µg/ml) at pH 6.9 and 9. The ability of DNA to be rewound at 10–50 µg/ml of PI was impaired by X-irradiation and partly restored during 90-min post-irradiation incubation, indicating damage to the superhelical structure and its partial restoration. The exponential time constants for repair were 10.1 min (LY-S, 6 Gy), 11.2 min (LY-R, 12 Gy), and 20.3 min (LY-s, 12 Gy) when measured at pH 9. In X-irradiated (12 Gy) LY-S cells, slower restoration of DNA supercoiling was observed at pH 9 than at pH 6.9. The presence of labile lesions at pH 9 did not prevent restoration of the higher-order DNA structure, as estimated from DNA rewinding at pH 6.9 in LY-S cells.

    Notes: Summary We examined, by the fluorescent halo assay, alterations in the nucleoid structure (structure formed from cells under mild lysis conditions: in non-ionic detergent TritonX-100, 0.0005% and 1.5 mol/1 NaCl) of L5178Y (LY) cell sublines which had been untreated, treated with reducing/chelating agents (ß-mercaptoethanol or sodium diethyl dithiocarbamate (DDTC(Na))) or X-irradiated. These sublines differ in radiation sensitivity: LY-R is more resistant (D 0 = 1.1 Gy) and LY-S more sensitive (D 0 = 0.5 Gy). Halo diameters were measured after cell lysis in the presence of propidium iodide (PI)(0.5 to 50 µg/ml) at pH 6.9 or 9. The maximal DNA unwinding in PI was obtained at 7.5 µg/ml PI, at both pH 6.9 and 9 in both sublines; the maximal halo diameter was larger in LY-S than in LY-R cells. In nucleoids from both sublines DNA could be rewound at higher (10–50 µ/ml) PI concentrations both at pH 6.9 and 9. This ability was impaired by mercaptoethanol or DDTC(Na) (at pH 9) or by X-irradiation, indicating damage and/or alteration in the DNA superhelical structure. The susceptibility to reducing/chelating agents was greater in LY-S than in LY-R nucleoids, pointing to differences in chromatin structure between these sublines. The amount of X-ray-inflicted damage was higher, when measured at pH 9 than at pH 6.9 and was about twice larger in LY-S than in LY-R nucleoids, when the cells were irradiated with the same X-ray dose. From analogies between the behaviour of nucleoids under the above-described conditions and nucleoid type I and II sedimentation, as examined by Lebkowski and Laemmli (1982) we conclude that damage at two levels of DNA folding is measured at pH 6.9 and 9.

    Notes: Abstract  We examined apoptosis and expression of p53, E2F-1, bax, bclxL and bcl2 proteins in two L5178Y (LY) murine lymphoma sublines, LY-R and LY-S, which differ in radiosensitivity and double-strand break (DSB) repair. Both sublines are heterozygous for a p53 mutation in codon 170 that precludes the transactivation function. Accordingly, there is no G1/S arrest after irradiation.We found that there is no change in expression of E2F-1, bax, bclxL or bcl2 proteins in both LY sublines after x-irradiation. LY-R cells do not constitutively express bcl2, whereas both sublines show high bax content. Radiation induces delayed apoptosis to a greater extent in LY-S than in LY-R cells. The apoptosis can be seen 24 h after irradiation (2 Gy) of LY-S cells, with a maximum at 48 h. LY-R cells need 5 Gy and 72 h post-irradiation incubation to show marked apoptosis (identified by the TUNEL method). The reported observations support the assumption that differential radiosensitivity of LY sublines is associated with the induction of apoptosis that is not related to transactivation by p53 and is primarily related to differential DNA repair ability.
