title: [DNA replication in mammalian cells exposed to the action of physical, chemical or biological factors. IV. 5-fluorodeoxyuridine modifies the effect of hyperthermia on DNA synthesis and the survival of HeLa cells].
abstract: Preliminary incubation of logarithmically growing HeLa cells with FUdR decreases an inhibitory effect of hyperthermia (43 degrees C, 1 hour) on DNA synthesis. The hyperthermia alone inhibits DNA synthesis considerably: the label in acid-precipitable material accounts for 30% of control level. Preliminary incubation of the cells with FUdR (10(-6)) for 24 or 6 hours (plus 18 hours in fresh medium) decreases the effect: the label yields account for 50 or 90% of the respective control levels. A molecular weight of nascent DNA synthetized in the cells after hyperthermia or incubation with FUdR is lower than the control one but it increases rapidly during postincubation. Nucleoid of cells treated with FUdR has a sedimentation velocity which exceeds that of the control cells by more than 25%. Preliminary incubation with FUdR sensitizes the cells to hyperthermia. The effect is not believed to be associated with cells synchronization since the treatment of the cells with FUdR for 2 or 6 hours, when FUdR itself does not exert its toxic effect, brings about sensibilization of cells to hyperthermia. It is suggested that modification of the cell viability and DNA replication are related to some changes of chromatine structure induced by FUdR.
