  • Title: Hypersensitivity and reduced inhibition of DNA synthesis in ataxia telangiectasia lymphoblasts treated with low levels of neocarzinostatin.
    Author: Babilon RW, Soprano KJ, Henderson EE.
    Journal: Mutat Res; 1985 Jul; 146(1):79-87. PubMed ID: 3158810.
    Abstract:
    The effects of neocarzinostatin (NCS) on lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) established from ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) were determined. A-T lymphoblasts were found to be hypersensitive to low levels of NCS as measured by cell growth and cell survival. On the other hand, A-T lymphoblasts failed to postpone DNA synthesis to the same degree as normal lymphoblasts following treatment with NCS. LCLs established from Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) could be distinguished from ataxia and normal cell lines by their intermediate level of survival following exposure to NCS.
