Radiotoxicities of [3H]thymidine and of [3H]arginine compared in mouse embryos in vitro.

Abstract:

:Tritium that is bound to organic molecules is of special risk for living systems, in particular when such molecules are components of the cell nucleus. Therefore, [3H]thymidine and [3H]arginine were studied for radiotoxicity in early mammalian embryo development. Starting with the two-cell stage, mouse embryos were incubated in vitro with [3H]thymidine or [3H]arginine at either 370 Bq/ml (10 nCi/ml) or 925 Bq/ml (25 nCi/ml). Development in vitro was followed up to the formation of the inner cell mass at 192 h postconception (p.c.). There was no difference in radiotoxicity of the two substances with respect to cell proliferation; however, formation of blastocysts, hatching of blastocysts, trophoblast outgrowth, and formation of inner cell mass were impaired more strongly by [3H]arginine than by [3H]thymidine when the external exposure concentrations were the same. Similarly, micronuclei were seen in blastocysts at 96 h p.c. at higher frequency after incubation with [3H]arginine. However, uptake of [3H]arginine by the embryos was considerably faster than that of [3H]thymidine, and this most probably accounts for the apparent difference in radiotoxicity.
