Abstract:
:Female SWR mice were treated with 1,2-dimethylhydrazine (DMH: 6.8 mg/kg i.p. injection) once weekly for up to 10 weeks, a dosing regime that produced tumours principally within the distal colon (Jackson et al., 1999. Carcinogenesis 20, 509-513). O(6)-Methylguanine (O(6)-MeG) levels, measured using a simple [3H]-based O(6)-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (ATase) inactivation assay, ranged from 0.6 to 16.7 fmol/microg DNA with: (i) highest levels in the distal colon; and (ii) higher levels after 68 mg/kg total DMH than 6.8 mg/kg DMH. Basal ATase activity varied between 0.97 and 1.22 fmol/microg DNA within the colon but was not associated with adduct levels or tumour induction. After 6.8 mg/kg DMH, the half life of O(6)-MeG in colonic tissue was 36-42 h whereas after 68 mg/kg DMH, t1/2 was approximately 25, 57 and 96 h in the proximal, mid and distal colon, respectively. Tumour induction was thus associated with the levels and persistence of O(6)-MeG in the distal colon.
