돌연변이 유발 물질인 mitomycin C(MMC)를 처리하여 배양한 Chinese hamster ovary(CHO) cell에 대한 감잎차 추출액의 항돌연변이 효과를 자매 염색 분체 교환(sister chromatid exchange, SCE) 시험법을 사용하여 측정하여 보았다. 감잎차 추출액 자체는 CHO 세포의 SCE 빈도수를 변화시키지 않았으며, 세포의 분열 주기중 S phase에 S9 mixture 없이 감잎차 추출액이 처리되었을 경우 MMC로 유도된 SCE 빈도수를 감소시키지 않았다. 그러나 S9 mixture 존재하에 $G_{1}$ phase에서 MMC 처리 후 감잎차를 처리하는 후처리 방식으로 감잎차 추출액을 처리하였을 때, 저농도($\leq$40$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml)에서 MMC로 인해 유발된 SCE 빈도수가 낮아지는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 이에 비해 고농도(>40$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml)에서는 SCE 빈도수의 감소 효과가 없었다. 본 연구결과, MMC 처리된 CHO 세포에 대한 감잎차 추출액의 항돌연변이 효과를 볼 수 있었고, 이 효과는 S9 mixture 존재하에서 저농도의 감잎차 추출액이 $G_{1}$ phase에 처리되었을 때 나타났다. 감잎차 추출액의 이러한 항돌연변이의 효과의 기전은 감잎차 추출액의 대사산물이 MMC 처리된 CHO 세포에 대한 DNA-excision repair activity를 촉진시키기 때문인 것으로 생각된다.

In order to evaluate the suppressive effects of galangin on the DNA damage induced by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea(MNU), in vitro sister chromatid exchange(SCE) test using Chinese Hamster ovary(CHO) cells was performed. Also the determinations of [$^{3}$H] MNU-induced total DNA binding and methylated DNA were performed to find out the mechanism of action by galangin. MNU-induced SCEs were significantly decreased by simultaneous and pretreatment of galangin when S-9 mix was added only. In post-treatment, however, the MNU-induced SCEs were not decreased when S-9 mix was added or not. [$^{3}$H] MNU-induced total DNA binding was significantly inhibited by the treatment of galangin in calf thymus DNA and CHO cells. HPLC analysis of DNA hydrolysates shows that galangin caused a dose-dependant decrease in calf thymus DNA, but not significant decrease in CHO cells. These results suggest that the inhibition of galangin on the MNU-induced SCEs is due to the decrease of DNA binding and methylation with MNU. Therefore, galangin may be useful as a chemopreventive agent of alkylating agents.

Purpose: Glyphosate (N-phosphonomethyl glycine) is widely used as an herbicide for weed control in rural areas. It is also readily available for suicide attempts. Glyphosate has high toxicity and negatively affects the human body. The aim of this investigation was to study the genotoxicity of a low-concentration of glyphosate through sister chromatid exchange (SCE) in human blood lymphocytes in vitro. Methods: Primary lymphocyte cultures were obtained from blood samples of 11 males and seven females who had been exposed to glyphosate (0, 100, 200, and 300 ng/mL). The frequency of SCEs was examined and statistical analysis was performed. Results: All doses of glyphosate induced a significant dose-dependent increase in SCE frequency compared with the control group (P<0.001). In particular, the SCE frequency for exposure to low-dose glyphosate was significantly higher in females than in males. Conclusion: According to the result of this study, even a low-dose of glyphosate may damage DNA and females are more vulnerable to glyphosate.

This study was undertaken to find out the bio-effects due to be a radiation fractionated exposure. The experimental animals were divided into the control group and the radiation exposure groups of 20cGy, 40cGy and 80cGy with 220 male Sprague-Dawley rats at 6 weeks old. The radiation exposure groups were fractionated exposed from each 20cGy, 40cGy and 80cGy for every 5 days. The chromosome aberrations, the frequency of SCE, the changes of body weight, hematological values and enzyme activities were investigated for the fractionating exposure times and the time after fractionated exposure. The results were summarized as follows 1. The body weight of the radiation exposure groups were significantly decreased compared with control group according to the increasing fractionated exposure times, and it was the lowest values at the immediately after the end of the fractionating exposed, but it was recovered with the level of control group at 3rd weeks gradually increased 1st week after fractionated exposure. 2. The values of WBC, RBC, Hb and Hct in the radiation exposure groups were significantly decreased than those the control group, but the values of GOT, GPT, ALP, and LDH in the radiation exposure groups were significantly increased than those of the control group. 3. The frequency of chromosomal aberration were increased according to the increasing fractionated exposure dose, and it showed the highest at 5th days after fractionated exposed. The types of chromosomal aberration were occurred such as a numerical abnormality, deletion, break and duplication, it was not recovered immediately and maintained high frequency than the control group. 4. The frequency of SCE were significantly increased according to the increasing fractionated exposure dose in 20cGy, 40cGy and 80cGy groups. But it was recovered the level of control group at 7th days after fractionated exposure. According to the above results, this study could confirm that the frequency of chromosomal aberration and SCE were increased with fractionated exposure dose, the other hand, the changes of body weight, hematological values and enzyme activity values were significantly affected according to the increasing fractionated exposure dose.

Ames test using special strains which are histidine requiring mutant of Salmonella typhimufium , is widely utilized as short-term bioassay to evaluate the genotoxicity of chemicals. This method requires the liver microsome(5-9 fraction) to provide mammalian metabolism of the compounds, Therefore, the mutagenic potency of the chemicals is affected by not only the intrinsic properties of them but also the efficiency of the in vitro microsomal activation system. For this reason, the complex mixtures such as environmental pollutants from occupational sources, natural products or cigarette smoke condensates(CSC) , might be often appeared the false results. Induction of sister chromatid exchange(SCE) in cultured cells is known as another sensitive and powerful tool for the measurement of genotoxicity and the method has also an advantage which is able to apply to the in vitro and in vivo systems. In the present study, the inducibilities of revertant colonies in tester strain TA98 and SCE in human Iymphocytes by positive controls and total particulated materials(TPM) obtained from various brand(domastic and imported) cigarettes were compared in order to investigate whether the results in Ames test are in agreement with those in SCE analysis. The mutagenic activities of well known mutagens such as B(a)P showed excellent dose-response in the both methods although the induction mechanism was different each other, but cyclophosphamide resulted such effect only in SCE analysis. Most TPM tested showed a similar pattern in the mutagenic activities in those methods. However, only two(one imported brand and one domestic sample cigarettes) among the TMP obtained from various cigarettes appeared the higher induction in SCE than Ames test.

In order to evaluate the cytogenetic hazard among hospital workers potentially exposed to low dose of radiation, the analysis of chromosome aberrations(CA) and sister chromatid exchanges(SCE) in lymphocytes were performed in 79 hospital workers and 79 non-exposed workers. The mean frequency of chromosomal exchange and deletion(respectively, $0.20\times10^{-2}/cell\;and\;0.39\times10^{-2}/cell$) in the exposed group were significantly higher than those$(0.07\times10^{-2}/cell\;and\;0.23\times10^{-2}/cell)$ in control group. The frequency of sister chromatid exchanges was 5.04/cell in the control vs. 6.57/cell in the exposed group. There were also significant differences in the mean frequencies of CA and SCE adjusted for age, sex, smoking, drinking between two groups. There were no evidence of significant increase of CA and SCE according to the department or duration of employment. But the frequency of cells having chromosome aberration was significantly higher in the exposed group than in the control group related to duration of employment. There was no dose-effect relationship between the cumulative doses and the frequency of CA and SCE. But in the case of last 1 yr cumulative dose, there were evidence of significant dose-dependant increase of chromosome type CA and percentage of cells with aberration. The result suggest that there is cytogenetic hazard in risk group like hospital workers handling low dose radiation. And the analysis CA and SCE are useful biological indicators for the exposure of low dose level of radiation.

항암제와 세포독성과의 관계를 알아보고자 인혈배양 임파구에서 SCE빈도, 세포분열지수 및 세포분열주기변동을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다. 1) 항암제 농도증가에 따라 SCE빈도는 대조군에 비해 유의하게 증가되었으며 (P<0.01), methotrexate에서는 유의성이 인정되지 않았다(P>0.05). 2) 세포분열지수는 cyclophosphamide를 제외한 공시 항암제에 대하여 현저하게 감소되었다. 3) 항암제의 농도증가에 따라 세포분열주기는 현저하게 지연되었으며 고농도에서는 현저한 세포분열 억제로 정상적인 세포분열이라 할 수 없는 강한 세포독성효과를 보였다. 이 결과는 알킬계 약제가 다른 항암제에 비해 강한 SCE 유발제이며 SCE유발과 세포분열주기 지연과는 깊은 상관성이 인정되지만 methotrexote경우에서는 그 상관성을 인정할 수 없었다. 이는 SCE유발과 세포분열주기지연이 서로 다른 기전에 의해서도 나타남을 제시해주고 있다.
