AB  - This study is aimed at analysing biochemical and genetic endpoints of toxic effects after administration of adrenaline. For this purpose, the study was carried out on Wistar rats and three doses of adrenaline were used: 0.75 mg/kg, 1.5 mg/kg, and 3 mg/kg body weight. To achieve these aims, we investigated the effects of adrenaline on catalase (CAT), Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), nitrite (NO2-), carbonyl groups (PCC), and nitrotyrosine (3-NT). Total activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), its relative distribution (LDH1-LDH5) activity, level of acute phase proteins (APPs), and genotoxic effect were also evaluated. The obtained results revealed that all doses of adrenaline induced a significant rise in CAT activity, MDA level, PCC, NO2-, and 3-NT and a significant decrease in SOD activity compared to control. Adrenaline exerted an increase in total activity of LDH, LDH1, and LDH2 isoenzymes. Further study showed that adrenaline significantly decreased serum albumin level and albumin-globulin ratio, while the level of APPs (alpha(1) -acid glycoprotein and haptoglobulin) is increased. The micronucleus test revealed a genotoxic effect of adrenaline at higher concentrations (1.5 mg/kg and 3 mg/kg body weight) compared to untreated rats. It can be concluded that adrenaline exerts oxidative and nitrative stress in rats, increased damage to lipids and proteins, and damage of cardiomyocytes and cytogenetic damage. Obtained results may contribute to better understanding of the toxicity of adrenaline with aims to preventing its harmful effects.

AB  - The success of antioxidant therapy in hyperthyroidism implies that disease is mediated by oxidative stress, which is known as one of the causing agents of agemg, degenerative diseases, and cancer. The main objective of our study was to determine possible protective effects of methanolic extract of N. rtanjensis in triiodothyronine (T-3)-induced DNA breaks of human lymphocytes under in vitro conditions, based upon plant antioxidant capacity related to its phytochemical profile, mainly its polyphenolic complex. The total phenolic and flavonoid content and the antioxidant activity using in vitro 1,1-dyphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl reagent (DPPH) was determined in methanolic extracts of plant leaves and flowers. The phenolic compound content of 62.73 +/- 1.80 mg of GaA/g, exhibited solid antioxidant activity (IC50= 112.59 +/- 0.95 g/ml). The antigenotoxic activity of 0.2, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/ml N. rtanjensis methanol extracts mixture with 100 mu M of T-3 was studied in human lymphocytes in vitro using the Comet assay. It is supposed that the antigenotoxicity of N. rtanjensis methanol extracts was caused by high presence of chlorogenic acid, rosmarinic acid and rutin, all known as efficient antioxidant bioactive compounds, which were determined by ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatograph with MS/MS Mass Spectroscopy (UHPLC/-HESI-MS/MS).

AB  - Understanding the cellular stress response in honey bees will significantly contribute to their conservation. The aim of this study was to analyze the response of the antioxidative enzymes superoxide dismutase and catalase in honey bees related to the presence of toxic metals in different habitats. Three locations were selected: (i) Tunovo on the mountain Golija, as control area, without industry and large human impact, (ii) Belgrade as urban area, and (iii) Zajaca, as mining and industrial zone. Our results showed that the concentrations of lead (Pb) in whole body of bees vary according to habitat, but there was very significant increase of Pb in bees from investigated industrial area. Bees from urban and industrial area had increased expression of both Sod1 and Cat genes, suggesting adaptation to increased oxidative stress. However, in spite increased gene expression, the enzyme activity of catalase was lower in bees from industrial area suggesting inhibitory effect of Pb on catalase.

AB  - Catechol groups can be involved in redox cycling accompanied by generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which may lead to oxidative damage of cellular macromolecules including DNA. The objective of this investigation was to evaluate possible genotoxic effects of a natural catecholamine adrenaline in cultured human lymphocytes using cytogenetic (sister chromatid exchange and micronuclei) and the single cell gel electrophoresis (Comet) assay. In cytogenetic tests, six experimental concentrations of adrenaline were used in a range from 0.01-500 mu M. There were no indications of genotoxic effects of adrenaline in sister chromatid exchange and micronucleus tests. However, at four highest concentrations of adrenaline (5 mu M, 50 mu M, 150 mu M and 300 mu M) we observed a decreased mitotic index and cell-cycle delay. In addition, in the Comet assay we used adrenaline in a range from 0.0005-500 mu M, at two treatment times: 15 min or 60 min. In contrast to cytogenetic analysis, there was a dose-dependent increase of DNA damage detected in the Comet assay. These effects were significantly reduced by concomitant treatment with quercetin or catalase. Therefore, the obtained results indicate that adrenaline may exhibit genotoxic effects in cultured human lymphocytes, most likely due to production of reactive oxygen species.

AB  - Ephedrine, a natural alkaloid from plants of the genus Ephedra, has a chemical structure similar to catecholamines. It is well established that catecholamines (adraneline, noradrenaline and dopamine) cause genotoxic and mutagenic effects. Therefore, the objectives of this investigation were to examine weather ephedrine can exhibit genotoxic effects on isolated human lymphocytes in the Comet assay. Dose-response of human lymphocytes was determined at the concentration range of ephedrine from 0.0005 μM to 500 μM. Three concentrations of ephedrine (1, 50 and 300 μM) which had acceptable cell viability (over 90%) were used for further experiments with inhibitors of DNA reparation (cytosine arabinoside and hydroxyurea). The obtained results showed that ephedrine did not induce DNA damage in isolated human lymphocytes. However, co-treatment of the negative control with DNA repair inhibitors caused a slight but significant increase of DNA damage, due to an endogenous DNA damage. Interestingly, cells treated with ephedrine and DNA repair inhibitors did not express increased DNA damage. On the basis of the obtained results it can be concluded that ephedrine did not exhibit genotoxic effects on isolated human lymphocytes. This result is in accordance with previous investigations showing negative genotoxicological results for ephedrine using bacterial gene mutation test-systems and in vitro cytogenetic analysis.
AB  - Efedrin, prirodni alkaloid iz biljaka roda Ephedra, ima sličnu hemijsku strukturu sa kateholaminima. Dobro je poznato da kateholamini (adrenalin, noradrenalin i dopamin) mogu da prouzrokuju genotoksične i mutagene efekte. Stoga su ciljevi ovog istraživanja bili da se ispita da li efedrin može da ispolji genotoksične efekte na izolovanim limfocitima čoveka u Komet testu. Odnos doza-efekat određ en je u rasponu koncentracija efedrina od 0.0005 μM do 500 μM. Tri koncentracije efedrina (1, 50 and 300 μM) koje su imale prihvatljiv nivo ćelijske vijabilnosti (preko 90%) upotrebljene su za dalje eksperimente sa inhibitorima reparacije DNK (citozin arabinozid i hidroksiurea). Dobijeni rezultati pokazuju da efedrin nije indukovao oštećenja DNK na izolovanim limfocitima čoveka. Međutim, istovremeni tretman sa inhibitorima reparacije DNK doveo je do malog ali statistički značajnog porasta oštećenja DNK kod negativne kontrole, usled endogenog oštećenja DNK. Interestantno je da ćelije tretirane sa efedrinom i inhibitorima reparacije DNK nisu ispoljile povećan nivo oštećenja DNK. Na osnovu dobijenih rezultata može se zaključiti da efedrin nije ispoljio genotoksične efekte na izolovanim limfocitima čoveka. Ovaj rezultat je u saglasnosti sa prethodnim istraživanjima u kojima je dokazano da efedrin ne dovodi do genotoksičnih efekata u bakterijskim testovima na genske mutacije i u in vitro citogenetičkim analizama.

On the basis of the obtained results it can be concluded that ephedrine did not exhibit genotoxic effects on isolated human lymphocytes. This result is in accordance with previous investigations showing negative genotoxicological results for ephedrine using bacterial gene mutation test-systems and in vitro cytogenetic analysis., Efedrin, prirodni alkaloid iz biljaka roda Ephedra, ima sličnu hemijsku strukturu sa kateholaminima. Dobro je poznato da kateholamini (adrenalin, noradrenalin i dopamin) mogu da prouzrokuju genotoksične i mutagene efekte. Stoga su ciljevi ovog istraživanja bili da se ispita da li efedrin može da ispolji genotoksične efekte na izolovanim limfocitima čoveka u Komet testu. Odnos doza-efekat određ en je u rasponu koncentracija efedrina od 0.0005 μM do 500 μM. Tri koncentracije efedrina (1, 50 and 300 μM) koje su imale prihvatljiv nivo ćelijske vijabilnosti (preko 90%) upotrebljene su za dalje eksperimente sa inhibitorima reparacije DNK (citozin arabinozid i hidroksiurea). Dobijeni rezultati pokazuju da efedrin nije indukovao oštećenja DNK na izolovanim limfocitima čoveka. Međutim, istovremeni tretman sa inhibitorima reparacije DNK doveo je do malog ali statistički značajnog porasta oštećenja DNK kod negativne kontrole, usled endogenog oštećenja DNK. Interestantno je da ćelije tretirane sa efedrinom i inhibitorima reparacije DNK nisu ispoljile povećan nivo oštećenja DNK. Na osnovu dobijenih rezultata može se zaključiti da efedrin nije ispoljio genotoksične efekte na izolovanim limfocitima čoveka. Ovaj rezultat je u saglasnosti sa prethodnim istraživanjima u kojima je dokazano da efedrin ne dovodi do genotoksičnih efekata u bakterijskim testovima na genske mutacije i u in vitro citogenetičkim analizama.",

AB  - Premature centromere division (PCD) can be viewed as a manifestation of chromosome instability. In order to evaluate the ability of Paclitaxel (Ptx) and Cycloheximide (Cy) to induce PCD we used a cytokinesis block micronucleus assay (CBMN), fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH), and the chromosome aberration (CA) assay in human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Results showed that Ptx can induce PCD alone or in combination with Cy. These findings call us to pay more attention to PCD as a parameter of genotoxicity in the pre-clinical research of mono and/or combinational therapies for cancer treatment.
AB  - Prevremena centromerna deoba (PCD) se može posmatrati kao manifestacija hromozomske nestabilnosti. U cilju procene efekta paklitaksela (Ptx) i cikloheksimida (Cy) na indukciju PCD-a, koristili smo mikronukleus test (CBMN) uz fluorescentnu in situ hibridizaciju (FISH), kao i test hromozomskih aberacija (CA) na humanim limfocitima periferne krvi. Rezultati su pokazali da Ptx sam, ili u kombinaciji sa Cy može da indukuje PCD. Ovi nalazi ukazuju da treba mnogo više pažnje obratiti na pojavu PCD-a kao parametra genotoksičnosti u prekliničkim ispitivanjima mono- i/ili politerapija za lečenje kancera.

AB  - Purpose: To assess the cytogenetic effects in vitro and in vivo of a non-cytotoxic antitumor agent with biomodulator activity, 8-chloro-3', 5' cyclic adenosine monophosphate (8-Cl-cAMP). Materials and methods: Cytogenetic effects of 8-Cl-cAMP where evaluated using the in vitro chromosome cytogenetic assail (CA) on human peripheral blood lymphocytes of healthy individuals and by hone marrow micronucleus assay in adult BALB/c mice. Results: In the in vitro chromosome CA, 8-Cl-cAMP (in all respective doses; 1.5 and 15 pin) induced mitotic inhibition and premature centromere separation (PCS) but no chromosomal damage in cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes. In the in vivo test, single intraperitoneal (i.p) injection of 8-Cl-cAMP in doses of 10, 80 and 15 0 mg/kg showed a dose-related effect on the frequency of micronuclei, detected in murine polychromatic erythrocytes (PCE). Conclusion: The results of the present study show that genotoxicity of 8-Cl-cAMP has a different matrix of response when comparing results in vitro and in vivo, suggesting that high metabolic activity in vivo is responsible for the clastogenic potential of 8-Cl-cAMP These comparative results indicate a need of having an available battery of genotoxic tests in order to evaluate possible cytogenetic effects of novel antitumor agents.
