Popis: We compared the formation of γH2AX foci (marker of DNA double-strand breaks) in human lung fibroblasts (MRC-5 line) during their 24-h incubation in a medium containing 3H-labeled thymidine or amino acids (glycine, alanine, and proline) with specific radioactivity from 100 to 400 MBq/liter. A linear dependence of changes in the number of γH2AX foci on the specific radioactivity of the medium was revealed. The quantitative yield of DNA double-strand breaks under the influence of 3H-thymidine was more than 2-fold higher than under the influence of 3H-labeled amino acids. Comparative analysis of the yields of DNA double-strand breaks during cell incubation with 3H-labeled amino acids showed that 3H-alanine produced more pronounced effect that 3H-proline, which is consistent with the data on the content of their non-radioactive analogs in chromatin proteins.
