[Accelerated microsomal DNA synthesis under the influence of xenobiotics and chemical carcinogens].
Injection of 3,4-benz(a)pyrene, methyl nitrosourea and phenobarbital into healthy mice of the C3HA line results in a rapid, sharp increase of [14C]-thymidine incorporated into liver microsomal DNA, accompanied by a suppression of nuclear DNA synthesis. In the liver of neoplastic mice and in the ascite cells of hepatoma 22A the system of microsomal DNA synthesis was insensitive to the injection of methyl nitrosourea. Cycloheximide and puromycin, which strongly inhibited nuclear DNA synthesis, had no effect on the synthesis of microsomal DNA. Stimulation of [14C]-thymidine incorporation into microsomal DNA after injection of methyl nitrosourea and 3,4-benz(a)pyrene may be accounted for not only by an increase of the DNA reparation processes, since caffeine, the inhibitor of post-replicatory reparation of DNA, did not eliminate the induction of microsomal DNA synthesis in the liver. Hydroxyurea in combination with methyl nitrosourea and phenobarbital significantly suppressed the synthesis of nuclear DNA in the liver and did not affect the synthesis of mtDNA; the stimulating effects of these inducers on the synthesis of microsomal DNA was thereby removed. This is indicative of independence of synthesis of microsomal DNA on that of nuclear DNA and mtDNA. Different specific radioactivities of microsomal, nuclear and mtDNAs in the regenerating mouse liver on the 5th, 10th and 15th post-hepatectomy days may be due to different metabolic stability of these DNAs. A possible role of microsomal DNA as a xenobiotic system component is discussed.
