MODULATION OF 8-METHOXYPSORALEN-DNA PHOTOADDUCT FORMATION BY CELL DIFFERENTIATION, MITOGENIC STIMULATION AND PHORBOL ESTER EXPOSURE IN MURINE T LYMPHOCYTES

Abstract The effects of cell differentiation and mitogen and phorbol ester stimulation on the formation of 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP)-DNA photoadducts in murine T lymphocytes were examined using ³H-8-MOP. While there were no significant differences in 8-MOP photoadduct formation among BALB/c thymocytes, splenocytes, splenic T cells and MRL/1pr lymph node cells, BALB/c bone marrow cells showed fewer photoadducts than did the lymphocytes. This suggested that proliferating progenitor cells may be resistant to 8-MOP photoadduct formation. Incubation of purified splenic T cells with lectin mitogens for 2 h or with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) for 2–43 h resulted in reduction of 8-MOP photoadduct formation in the DNA, whereas 64 h cultivation with these agents augmented the photoadduct formation. The reduction of photoadduct formation induced by phytohemagglutinin was restored by the further addition of a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor, H-7, to the culture. Thus, it is assumed that the reduction of adduct formation evoked by mitogens and PMA is mediated in part by the activation of PKC in the cells. On the other hand, the augmentation of the adduct formation induced by the longer-period cultures with mitogens and PMA appeared to be caused by down-regulation of PKC. The present study showed that the stimulatory signals in which PKC is presumably involved affect the ability of cells to form 8-MOP-DNA photoadducts.

4'-AMINOMETHYL-4,5',8-TRIMETHYLPSORALEN PHOTOCHEMISTRY THE EFFECT OF CONCENTRATION AND UVA FLUENCE ON PHOTOADDUCT FORMATION IN POLY(dAdT) AND CALF THYMUS DNA

Abstract-The photochemistry of 4'-aminomethyl-4,5',8-trimethylpsoralen (AMT) with poly(dA-dT) and calf thymus DNA was studied. The extent of photoadduct formation and the distribution of photoadducts (3,4– and 4',5'-monoadducts and crosslinks) were determined by liquid scintillation analysis and HPLC, respectively. The adducts were characterized on the basis of their UV absorption spectra and mass spectral analysis. The high DNA binding constant for AMT (1.5 x 10⁵ M⁻¹ ) led to a high fraction of intercalated molecules, which contributed to the high level of AMT photoadduct formation, as many as 102 adducts per kilobase pair. In addition, there is a distinct difference in the adduct distribution compared to the previously studied 8-methoxypsoralen (8-MOP). Under the conditions employed for the photochemical studies, virtually all of the AMT molecules in solution are intercalated, occupying 25% of the base pair sites. Under similar conditions, 8-MOP molecules occupied 10 times fewer sites. Thus, for AMT, DNA base pair sites other than 5'TA, the well-characterized strong binding for psoralens in general, are an additional target for photomodification, which results in the formation of a higher percentage of monoadducts. The proportion of photoadducts formed was virtually independent of AMT concentration and UVA (320–400 nm radiation) fluence.

COMPARATIVE STUDIES ON THE PHOTOSENSITIZING POTENCY OF 5-METHOXYPSORALEN and 8-METHOXYPSORALEN AS MEASURED BY CYTOLYSIS IN PARAMECIUM CAUDATUM AND TETRAHYMENA PYRIFORMIS, AND GROWTH INHIBITION AND SURVIVAL IN CANDIDA ALBICANS

Abstract— The photosensitizing potencies of 5-methoxypsoraIen and 8-methoxypsoralen were investigated using the following biological end-points for lethality: (i) cytolysis in the protozoans Paramecium caudatum and Tetrahymena pyriformis, (ii) inhibition of growth in the yeast Candida albicans and (iii) survival as measured by colony counts in Candida albicans. In all cases, 5-methoxypsoralen proved to be the more potent photosensitizing agent. The preliminary action spectra of the 2 compounds for growth inhibition in C. albicans were similar and showed maximal spectral efficiency in the 320–340 nm waveband. The molecular basis for the described end-points is unknown. Although it is well known that 5-methoxypsoralen and 8-methoxypsoralen readily photoreact with DNA, it is considered that photo-reaction with protein should also be given serious consideration as the possible lethal event. The superior effect of 5-methoxypsoralen is in accordance with some of the physical and photochemical properties of this molecule, but this result is at variance with other studies in different test systems that have been used to compare the photobiological efficacy of these 2 compounds.

THERMAL-SENSITIVE BETA-CYCLODEXTRIN-CONTAINING POLY(N-ISOPROPYLACRYLAMIDE) HYDROGELS CROSSLINKED BY Si-O-Si BONDS -SYNTHESIS, CHARACTERIZATION AND PROLONGING IN VITRO RELEASE OF 5-FLUOROURACIL

A series of novel p(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) hydrogels were synthesized by radical copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAM) and 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MPTMS). The copolymers were then crosslinked through hydrolysis of the siloxane in acetic acid/water mixed solvent. Beta-cyclodextrin (Beta-CD) was introduced into the polymeric networks by condensation of 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane derived beta-cyclodextrin (KH560-beta-CD) with MPTMS under acidic condition. These gels were heterogeneous, porous and exhibited fast deswelling kinetics when the temperature was elevated to above lower critical solution temperature (LCST). The swelling ratios of the gels containing beta-CD at room temperature were higher than that of the normal PNIPAM hydrogel, which was caused by the lower crosslinking density in beta-CD contained gels. In comparison to that of the normal PNIPAM gel, the amount of loaded-drug in the hydrogel containing beta-CD was higher, and the release time of 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) was prolonged, which was attributed to the formation of inclusion compounds between 5-Fu and beta-CD in gel network.

Cis-UROCANIC ACID DOWN-REGULATES THE INDUCTION OF ADENOSINE 3'', 5''-CYCLIC MONOPHOSPHATE BY EITHER trans-UROCANIC ACID OR HISTAMINE IN HUMAN DERMAL FIBROBLASTS in vitro

It has been demonstrated that UVB radiation (290-320 nm) suppresses mammalian cell-mediated immunity by effecting the trans to cis isomerization of urocanic acid (UCA) in the stratum corneum, the uppermost layer of the skin. Trans-urocanic acid has been shown to be the photoreceptor for UVB-induced immune suppression and the cis-isomer has been demonstrated to be immunosuppressive. Little is known, however, about how the isomerization of UCA may affect the proximal or distal cells of the skin or the immune system. We report here that trans-UCA is biologically active in vitro in human dermal fibroblasts, inducing adenyl cyclase as measured by cAMP (adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate) formation in a dose-dependent manner similar to the action of histamine. Trans-UCA and histamine stimulate 50% of maximum activity at concentrations of 3.3 microM and 13.8 microM respectively. Cis-UCA does not increase cAMP in these human fibroblasts but actively down regulates the increase of cAMP induced by either histamine or trans-UCA. Cis-UCA down regulated the histamine response by 75% and the trans-UCA response by 60% at a concentration range of 1 mM to 1 nM. The trans-UCA induction of cAMP can also be downregulated with an H2 histamine receptor antagonist cimetidine. These results support the hypothesis that a cellular target for cis-UCA is the dermal fibroblast and the effects reported here may represent the initial biochemical and cellular event for UVB-induced immune suppression i.e. the immediate step following the isomerization of trans to cis-UCA is the down regulation of cAMP by cis-UCA. Regulation of such an important second messenger such as cAMP could then allow cascading signals to occur, leading to immune suppression.     

RELATIVE GROUND AND EXCITED STATE ENERGIES OF CH3(CH=CH)5CH=NC4H9, ITS HYDROGEN-BONDED AND PROTON-TRANSFERRED SPECIES,AND CHARGE PARTITIONING AND DISTRIBUTION IN THE PROTONATED SCHIFF BASE OF RETINAL*

Abstract— CH₃(CH=CH)₅CH=NC₄H₉ (compound 1) is structurally related to the Schiff base of retinal, the prosthetic group in visual pigments. Dilute solutions of a weak acid (phenol) and 1 in a hydrocarbon solvent, when subjected to decreasing temperature, show striking changes in electronic absorption spectra. Initially only the spectrum of compound 1 is present, but as the temperature is lowered, the absorbance of 1 decreases, and the spectrum of the H-bonded form of 1 appears and increases. Continued temperature lowering then causes a decrease in absorption of the H-bonded form and an appearance and rise in absorption of the proton-transfcrred form of 1. Concentrations of the various species are measured as a function of temperature, and by standard procedures, the thermodynamic constants for both reaction steps are computed. Values of Δ⁰ are taken as relative energies among the three ground states, and the λ_max value of each species yields relative energies among excited states. By employing data from electronic absorption spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and theoretical calculations for retinal Schiff base, charge partitioning between nitrogen and the polyene chain and charge distribution among the carbon atoms of the polyene chain are calculated.     

QUENCHING OF TRIPLET STATES OF AROMATIC KETONES BY INDOLE AND 3-METHYL INDOLE IN BENZENE SOLUTION. EVIDENCE FOR HYDROGEN-ATOM ABSTRACTION, FOR QUENCHING DUE TO FAVOURABLE CHARGE TRANSFER INTERACTION AND FOR THE LACK OF ELECTRONIC ENERGY TRANSFER

Abstract— Quenching of the triplet states of the aromatic ketones (KCO), benzophenone, acetophenone and xanthone, by indole and 3-methyl indole gives rise to the neutral radicals resulting from hydrogenatom transfer with variable efficiency (40–100%). Thus in addition to the reaction,
³KCO*+ R H →KCOH + R .
some other quenching path or paths occur. There is no evidence for any triplet energy transfer even when this is energetically favourable, and it is suggested therefore that quenching to give ground state species following favourable charge-transfer interactions accounts for the proportion of quenching without reaction.
The spectra of the indole radicals, R ., were determined and the kinetics of their decay in aerated and deaerated solution were investigated and reaction schemes proposed to explain these observations.     

MULTI-SITE PHOSPHORESCENCE OF α, β-ENONES:LEVEL INVERSION IN 6β, 19-EPOXYCHOLEST-4-EN-3-ONE BY SOLVATION AND AGGREGATION

Millisecond time-resolved emission spectroscopy was used to probe the phosphorescence kinetics of the α-β-enone 6β, 19-epoxycholest-4-en-3-one (1) as a function of concentration in several paraffinic and hydroxylic glasses at 77 K. Only in methylcyclohexane/methylcyclopentane glass at low concentration (10^?4M) does the phosphorescence decay exponentially. It is interpreted as emission from the ³n* state. Upon increasing the concentration a second emission grows which is characterized by a longer lifetime, a decreased fine structure and a hypsochromically shifted S₀→¹nπ* excitation spectrum. This phosphorescence is ascribed to ³ππ* emission of aggregates of 1. In hydroxylic glasses the phosphorescence decay is multiexponential, even at 10^?4M concentration; from emission band shapes and lifetimes it follows that both ³nπ* and ³ππ* type emissions are present, the latter increasing with the alcohol concentration in the solvent. The two types of phosphorescence have different excitation spectra: that of the structureless and long-lived ³ππ* emission is shifted to the blue in the S₀→¹nπ* region and to the red in the S⁰→¹ππ* region. This emission is ascribed to complexes of 1 with the alcoholic solvent. The results of time-resolved measurements of the circular polarization of the luminescence are consistent with the assignments given above and indicate that in the H-bonded and possibly also in the free species ³ππ* and ³nπ* states are intermixed to a considerable extent.
