Synthesis and evaluation of 2-pyrrolepolyamide-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-phosphate.
    Nucleic acids symposium series (2004), 2007, Issue:51

    2-Pyrrolepolyamide-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-phosphate (hybrid 4) was synthesized and evaluated in terms of the inhibition of mouse mammary carcinoma FM3A cell growth. Hybrid 4 exhibited the highest activity compared with the other hybrids (1, 2, and 3) and distamycin A.

Cyclic guanosine monophosphate role in human carcinoma pathogenesis.
    Nucleosides, nucleotides & nucleic acids, 2004, Volume: 23, Issue:8-9

    In order to examine the cyclic nucleotides (cGMP) role in carcinoma growth and invasivity. We analyzed two cell lines, LSHT29 and 17GT, and tissues in patients with carcinoma and malignant tissues with (N+) and without (N-) lymph node metastases. Higher cGMP levels in pathological samples suggest a strong correlation between intracellular cGMP concentration and carcinoma progression.

Analysis of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate (8-OH-dGMP) as a reliable marker of cellular oxidative DNA damage after gamma-irradiation.
    Environmental and molecular mutagenesis, 2003, Volume: 41, Issue:5

    In order to improve 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua) detection in DNA, we digested isolated DNA with nuclease P1 and analyzed for 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine 5'-monophosphate (8-OH-dGMP) using a high-performance liquid chromatography system equipped with an electrochemical detector (HPLC-ECD). The amount of 8-OH-Gua in the DNA was expressed as the ratio of 8-OH-dGMP to deoxycytidine monophosphate (dCMP). Using this analysis, the background level of 8-OH-Gua in DNA from human lung carcinoma cells (A549) was several-fold lower than that obtained by a previous method. A549 cells were exposed to 20-60 Gy of gamma-radiation and an increase in 8-OH-Gua concentration was observed with increasing gamma-ray dose (0.3 residues per 10(7) dCMP per Gy). Moreover, by an immunohistochemical procedure using a commercial FITC-kit, 8-OH-Gua was clearly detected in A549 cells and the fluorescence intensity of cells with oxidative DNA damage increased with the doses of gamma-irradiation. Using an endonuclease nicking assay, we also found that gamma-rays decreased 8-OH-Gua repair activity. The results indicate that 8-OH-dGMP is a useful and sensitive marker for estimating oxidative damage in DNA.

Guanosine-5'-phosphate synthetase and guanosine-5'-phosphate kinase in rat hepatomas and kidney tumors.
    Biochimica et biophysica acta, 1981, Mar-13, Volume: 658, Issue:1

    The behavior of the activities of GMP synthetase (xanthosine-5'-phosphate: L-glutamine amino-ligase(AMP-forming),EC 6.3.5.2) and GMP kinase (ATP: (d)GMP phosphotransferase,EC 2.7.4.8) was elucidated in cytosol preparations of rat tissues, including fetal, neonatal and regenerating liver, in a transplantable kidney tumor, and in a spectrum of 11 hepatomas of different growth rates. GMP kinase activity was 60-fold or more higher than GMP synthetase activity in all of the examined tissues. GMP synthetase activity was increased in all hepatomas and in the kidney tumor, compared to control tissues, reaching 5.5-fold the normal liver values in the most rapidly growing hepatoma. This increase correlated with the tumor growth rates. GMP kinase activity showed no consistent pattern of alteration in the tumors. In both fetal and neonatal rat liver the activity of GMP synthetase was 2.5-times higher than in livers of adult rats, but GMP kinase activity did not change markedly during liver development. After partial hepatectomy GMP synthetase activity was elevated, reaching a peak of 155% of the sham-operated control values by 36 h after the operation. GMP kinase activity was not affected by partial hepatectomy. After 3 days starvation hepatic GMP kinase activity decreased slightly faster than total cytosol protein, while GMP synthetase activity was preferentially maintained. These results indicate that GMP synthetase activity was linked with cellular proliferation in differentiating, regenerating and neoplastic tissues.
