Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP; EC 2.4.2.30) is a chromatin-bound enzyme which is known to regulate chromatin structure by poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of nuclear proteins, to facilitate DNA base excision repair, and to contribute to cellular recovery following DNA damage. Because inhibitors of PARP are able to potentiate the cell-killing effects of some DNA-damaging agents and to inhibit the repair of induced DNA strand breaks, such compounds may enhance the anti-tumour efficacy of radiotherapy or cytotoxic drug treatment. The PARP-inhibitory effects and radiosensitization of a new compound, 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide (ANI), were examined.
The inhibition of radiation-induced poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (50 Gy; 60Co gamma-radiation) was evaluated by immunofluorescence assay using MoAb 10H directed against poly(ADP-ribose). Cell survival was assessed by colony forming assay (CFA) to determine the cytotoxicity of radiosensitization potential in exponentially growing hamster lung fibroblasts (V79), rat prostate carcinoma (R3327-AT1) and human prostate carcinoma (DU145) cells.
At concentrations above 30 nmol x dm(-3) ANI, radiation-induced poly(ADP-ribose) was not detectable by immunofluorescence in V79, AT1 and DU145 cells. At the highest concentration tested for chronic exposure (20 micromol x dm(-3)), ANI was not cytotoxic and significantly potentiates the cytotoxicity of gamma-irradiation. The level of radiation enhancement was directly proportional to drug concentration. Survival curves for the three cell lines using 20 micromol x dm(-3) ANI revealed sensitizer enhancement ratios of 1.3 for V79, 1.5 for AT1 and 1.3 for DU145.
In living cells, ANI is about 1000-fold more potent at inhibiting PARP activity compared with 3-aminobenzamide (3-ABA). CFA studies demonstrated that ANI is a radiation sensitizer at non-toxic and lower concentrations (20 micromol x dm(-3)) than 3-ABA (10 mmol x dm(-3)).
聚(ADP - 核糖)聚合酶(PARP;EC 2.4.2.30)是一种与染色质结合的酶,已知其通过对核蛋白进行聚(ADP - 核糖基)化来调节染色质结构,促进DNA碱基切除修复,并有助于DNA损伤后的细胞恢复。由于PARP抑制剂能够增强某些DNA损伤剂的细胞杀伤作用,并抑制诱导的DNA链断裂的修复,此类化合物可能会增强放射治疗或细胞毒性药物治疗的抗肿瘤疗效。研究了一种新化合物4 - 氨基 - 1,8 - 萘二甲酰亚胺(ANI)的PARP抑制作用和放射增敏作用。
使用针对聚(ADP - 核糖)的单克隆抗体10H,通过免疫荧光测定法评估辐射诱导的聚(ADP - 核糖基)化(50 Gy;60Coγ射线照射)的抑制情况。通过集落形成测定法(CFA)评估细胞存活率,以确定在指数生长的仓鼠肺成纤维细胞(V79)、大鼠前列腺癌(R3327 - AT1)和人前列腺癌(DU145)细胞中放射增敏潜力的细胞毒性。
在浓度高于30 nmol·dm⁻³时,在V79、AT1和DU145细胞中通过免疫荧光检测不到辐射诱导的聚(ADP - 核糖)。在慢性暴露测试的最高浓度(20 μmol·dm⁻³)下,ANI无细胞毒性,并显著增强γ射线照射的细胞毒性。辐射增强水平与药物浓度成正比。使用20 μmol·dm⁻³ ANI时,三种细胞系的存活曲线显示,V79的增敏剂增强比为1.3,AT1为1.5,DU145为1.3。
在活细胞中,与3 - 氨基苯甲酰胺(3 - ABA)相比,ANI抑制PARP活性的效力约强1000倍。CFA研究表明,ANI在无毒且浓度低于3 - ABA(10 mmol·dm⁻³)的情况下(20 μmol·dm⁻³)是一种放射增敏剂。
