Title: Post-irradiation inhibition of scheduled DNA synthesis and stimulation of ADP-ribosylation in sensitive and resistant L5178Y murine lymphoma cells. Author: Lunec J, Sun Guo Qi, George AM, Whish WJ, Cramp WA. Journal: Int J Radiat Biol Relat Stud Phys Chem Med; 1983 Dec; 44(6):645-51. PubMed ID: 6317590. Abstract: Post-irradiation changes in DNA synthesis and ADP-ribosyltransferase (ADPRT) activity in L5178YS and L5178YR, radiation sensitive and resistant murine lymphoma cells are described. DNA synthesis was inhibited to a greater extent in L5178YS than in L5178YR cells. The stimulation of ADPRT activity by irradiation was not significantly different between these two cell lines. These observations contribute to other evidence which has failed to confirm a general association of ADP-ribosylation with the DNA synthesis inhibition response. The contrast between the response of L5178Y cells and the corresponding behaviour of ataxia telangiectasia cells and normal human cells indicate that entirely different mechanisms are involved in determining the differences in radiosensitivity in these two systems.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
