Interstitial telomeric sequences are not preferentially involved in the chromosome damage induced by the methylating compound streptozotocin in chinese hamster cells

Abstract: The effect of the methylating compound streptozotocin (STZ) on interstitial telomeric sequences (ITSs) was investigated in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells by using peptide nucleic acid-fluorescence in situ hybridization with a pantelomeric probe. Cells were exposed to increasing concentrations of STZ, and chromosomal aberrations were analyzed at the first mitosis after treatment. The frequency of chromosomal aberrations directly involving ITSs increased in STZ-treated cells by a factor of 2.6 (2 mM) and 3.6 … Show more

“…Therefore, the persistence of chromosomal aberrations related to telomere dysfunction observed in rat cells exposed to streptozotocin seems to be unrelated to telomerase activity or telomere length. The data registered in telomerase activity in the short-term agrees well with the data previously obtained in CHO cells, where no variations of the activity were observed 18 h posttreatment with streptozotocin [33] in comparison to control (unexposed) cells.…”

“…Despite the abovementioned compounds induced chromosomal aberrations involving telomeres and interstitial telomeric sequences, none of them altered the activity of telomerase in CHO and CHE cells [32,33] , at least in the short-term (18 h after treatment). The effect of these drugs on telomere length in hamster cells was not determined.…”

“…No obstante, puede mencionarse que existe al menos un trabajo publicado donde se señala que el citrato de sodio puede ser citotóxico [141]. Además, es importante destacar que en ninguno de los trabajos previos realizados con EZ en células CHO en el Laboratorio de Citogenética y Mutagénesis del IMBICE, se encontró un efecto cito-y/o genotóxico del citrato de sodio [47], [95] y que el citrato de sodio es el solvente por excelencia para disolver a la EZ [82], [83].…”

“…Los registros de la actividad de la telomerasa obtenidos a corto plazo, difieren de aquellos indicados por Quiroga y cols. [95] en células CHO, quienes demostraron que no existen variaciones significativas en la actividad de la enzima a las 18 horas postratamiento con EZ en relación a las células control. Esto demuestra que la sensibilidad de la droga sobre la telomerasa varía de acuerdo al tipo celular expuesto al antibiótico [74], [95].…”
