Abstract:
:Divinyl sulfone (DVS) is an important oxidative metabolic product of sulfur mustard (SM) in vitro and in vivo. Although DVS is not a classical blister agent, its high reactivity and toxicity induced by vinyl groups can also cause blisters like SM upon contact with the skin, eyes, and respiratory organs. The purpose of this paper was to identify whether DVS could covalently bind to DNA bases to form new DNA adducts in cells in vitro. A series of adducts were synthesized and characterized using purine, nucleoside, or DNA, separately, as starting materials. The covalent site, pattern, and relative reactivity of adduct formation were identified and discussed in detail. The results showed that five high abundance site-specific DNA adducts, including two monoadducts and three cross-linked adducts, were obtained when DNA was used as a substrate. When HaCaT cells were exposed to 30 μM of DVS, four new DNA adducts containing monoadducts and cross-linked adducts were found and identified in cells, including N3-A monoadduct, N7-G monoadduct, N7G-N7G bis-adduct, and N3A-N7G cross-linked adduct. Among them, the abundance of N3-A monoadduct was 10 times higher than that of the other three adducts. DNA adduct formation with DVS showed significant differences from that observed with SM. The observation of these new DNA adduct in vitro cells revealed that DNA damage could be also induced by DVS.
