Abstract:
:Present studies show the in vitro addition of glutathione (GSH) can significantly alter selenite induced growth inhibition of mammary tumor cell line 13 (CMT-13). Preincubation with 100 microM GSH for 24 h partially prevented the growth inhibition caused by 12.6 microM selenite. Pre-incubation with 100 microM GSH for 48 h completely prevented the growth inhibition caused by 12.6 microM selenite. In marked contrast, simultaneous addition of GSH and selenite dramatically increased the severity of selenite-mediated growth inhibition and resulted in cell death. Exposure to selenite (12.6 microM) increased intracellular GSH throughout the 3 day incubation period. Addition of GSH to the medium also led to an approximate 25% increase in intracellular GSH that persisted for 72 h. Cellular retention of selenium following selenite supplementation was decreased up to 70% by GSH preincubation yet increased markedly (greater than or equal to 240%) by the simultaneous addition of GSH and selenite. The rate of selenite uptake was not consistently altered by GSH pretreatment. However, the simultaneous addition of GSH and selenite resulted in a dramatically increased rate of selenium uptake. These data indicate that extracellular GSH can alter the toxicity of supplemental selenite. The protective effect of GSH pre-incubation against selenite toxicity appears to relate to altered selenium retention.
