title: [Effects of complex of 3,6-di-(dimethylamino)-dibenzopyriodonium with praseodymium dicitrate on the syntheses of DNA, RNA, protein, nucleoprotein and ATP of leukemia L 7712 cells in mice].
abstract: The incorporations of [3H] thymidine, [3H]uridine and [3H]leucine into DNA, RNA and protein synthesis in leukemia 7712 cells were inhibited by the complex of 3,6-di-(dimethylamino)-dibenzopyriodonium with praseodymium (Pr, rare earth element) dicitrite 34 micrograms/ml for 3-24 h. The degree of inhibition increased in proportion to the incubation time. After being treated with [C17H20N2I]3[Pr(C6H5O7)2] 34 micrograms/ml for 3, 6, 12 and 24 h, the incorporation of [32P]Na2HPO4 into the nucleoprotein of leukemia 7712 cells was inhibited by 49, 57, 65 and 85%, while those into ATP were inhibited by 43, 59, 65 and 83%, respectively. The ID50 of [C17H20N2I]3[Pr(C6H5O7)2] on DNA synthesis in leukemia 7712 cells at 24 h was 22 micrograms/ml. After the complex was removed from the medium entirely, the rate of DNA synthesis decreased with time over 3-12 h. This result indicated that the inhibition mechanism was likely due to damage to the DNA template.
