Radioprotection of cells in culture by WR-2721 and derivatives: form of the drug responsible for protection.

Abstract:

:Studies of V79-171 cells were undertaken to determine what extracellular or intracellular derivative of the drug WR-2721 is associated with radioprotection. The effect of preincubation at 23 +/- 1 degree C with WR-2721, and with derivatives of WR-2721 produced in medium containing alkaline phosphatase, upon survival of cells following subsequent gamma-irradiation was examined. It was established that WR-2721, WR-1065, WR-33278, WRSSCys, and other disulfide forms produced by reactions of WR-1065 with the medium do not provide significant protection when present only extracellularly. Protection was found to correlate with cellular levels of the thiol form of the drug (WR-1065) but not with the cellular level of the disulfide forms of WR-1065. Similar results were obtained with HeLa, Me-180, Ovary 2008, HT-29/SP-1d, and Colo 395 cell lines showing that human tumor cell lines behave in the same fashion as the V79-171 nontumorigenic hamster diploid cell line. None of the drug forms produced significant cytotoxicity under the conditions used. It was concluded that it is the cellular level of WR-1065 at the time of irradiation which determines protection. The results are consistent with protection mechanisms involving scavenging of hydroxyl radicals, hydrogen atom transfer to DNA radicals, depletion of oxygen near DNA, enhancement of rapid biochemical repair processes, or some combination of these mechanisms.
