Abstract:
:Induced genomic instability in the human B lymphoblastoid cell line TK6 manifests itself as increases in end-to-end chromosome fusions and non-reciprocal chromosome translocations. It is not associated with elevated frequencies of specific locus mutations or other cytogenetic alterations. Previous studies on a limited number of cells and end-points suggested that induced instability in TK6 mirrors spontaneous instability in terms of the types of alterations observed. In the present study we expanded on our previous analysis to include more cells and more end-points in order to derive a more precise measure of spontaneous instability in TK6 cells. The frequency of normal growth rate thymidine kinase mutants (TK(-/-)), measured in 44 independently isolated clones, was 2.73 +/- 0.78 x 10(-6)/cell, while that for slow growth mutants was 2.39 +/- 0.52 x 10(-6)/cell. These are similar to the frequencies observed for HPRT mutants in primary human cells. There was wide variation in chromatid break frequencies, but the average break frequency, at 0.04+/-0.01 breaks/cell, was only slightly higher than that reported for primary human cells. In contrast, the dicentric frequency of 0.006/cell was more than 10-fold higher for TK6 cells than that reported for normal primary human cells. Furthermore, the dicentrics in TK6 cells are unusual in that they are the result of end-to-end chromosome fusions. TK6 cells also show much higher levels of non-reciprocal chromosome translocations than are usually observed in primary human cells. The results suggest an inherent instability in TK6 cells that differs from what is observed in primary cells in that it affects the frequency of end-to-end chromosome fusions and non-reciprocal chromosome translocations, but not TK gene mutations or other cytogenetic alterations.
