Abstract
Telomeres are nucleotide repeat sequences located at the end of chromosomes that protect them from degradation and maintain chromosomal stability. Telomeres shorten with each cell division; hence telomere length is associated with aging and longevity. Numerous lifestyle factors have been identified that impact the rate of telomere shortening; high vitamin consumption has been associated with longer telomere length, whereas oxidative stress is associated with telomere shortening. In this paper, we sought to determine if a multivitamin mixture containing both vitamins and a blend of polyphenolic compounds, could reduce telomere shortening consequent to an oxidative stress (10 uM H2O2 for 8 weeks) in a primary fibroblast cell culture model. Under conditions of oxidative stress, the median and 20th percentile telomere length were significantly greater (p < 0.05), and the percentage of critically short telomeres (<3000 bp) was significantly less (p < 0.05) in cells treated with the multivitamin mixture at 4, 15 and 60 ug/ml compared to control (0 ug/ml). Median and 20th percentile telomere shortening rate was also reduced under the same conditions (p < 0.05). Taken together, these findings demonstrate that the multivitamin mixture protects against oxidative stress-mediated telomere shortening in cell culture, findings which may have implications in human health.

Abstract
NAD+ is a versatile biomolecule acting as a master regulator and substrate in various cellular processes, including redox regulation, metabolism, and various signaling pathways. In this article, we concisely and critically review the role of NAD+ in mechanisms promoting genome maintenance. Numerous NAD+-dependent reactions are involved in the preservation of genome stability, the cellular DNA damage response, and other pathways regulating nucleic acid metabolism, such as gene expression and cell proliferation pathways. Of note, NAD+ serves as a substrate to ADP-ribosyltransferases, sirtuins, and potentially also eukaryotic DNA ligases, all of which regulate various aspects of DNA integrity, damage repair, and gene expression. Finally, we critically analyze recent developments in the field as well as discuss challenges associated with therapeutic actions intended to raise NAD+ levels.

Abstract
Nicotinamide (NAM), an amide form of vitamin B3, replenishes cellular energy after ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure, thereby enhancing DNA repair and reducing UVR's immunosuppressive effects. NAM reduces actinic keratoses and new keratinocyte cancers in high risk individuals, but its effects on melanoma are unknown. Melanomas arising on NAM or placebo within the ONTRAC skin cancer chemoprevention trial (Oral Nicotinamide To Reduce Actinic Cancer) were examined by immunohistochemistry. The effects of NAM (50 μM, 5 mM and 20 mM) on the viability, proliferation and invasiveness of four human melanoma cell lines and on the viability and proliferation of two human melanocyte lines, with and without UV irradiation were also investigated. 50 μM NAM did not affect viability, proliferation or invasion of melanoma or melanocyte cell lines, whereas concentrations too high to be achievable in vivo reduced viability and proliferation. Nicotinamide did not enhance melanoma viability, proliferation or invasiveness in vitro, providing additional confidence in its safety for use in clinical trials in high risk patients. Peritumoral and tumour infiltrating CD4+ and CD8+ lymphocytes were significantly increased in melanomas arising on NAM compared to those arising on placebo. Given the chemopreventive activity of nicotinamide against keratinocyte cancers, its DNA repair enhancing effects in melanocytes and now its potential enhancement of tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes and lack of adverse effects on melanoma cell growth and proliferation, clinical trials of nicotinamide for melanoma chemoprevention are now indicated.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Radiation and chemical mutagens are direct DNA-damaging agents and ultraviolet (UV) radiation is frequently used in biological studies. Consequent to ozone depletion, UV-C could become a great challenge to living organisms on earth, in the near future. The present study has focused on the role of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) during UV-C-induced growth and developmental changes in Dictyostelium discoideum, a phylogenetically important unicellular eukaryote. MATERIALS AND METHODS Dictyostelium discoideum cells were exposed to different doses of UV-C and PARP activity, and effects of its inhibition were studied. Expression of developmentally regulated genes yakA, car1, aca, csA, regA, ctnA, ctnB, gp24, hspD and dsn were analysed using semiquantitative RT-PCR. RESULTS We report that the D. discoideum cells displayed PARP activation within 2 min of UV-C irradiation and there was increase in NO levels in a dose-dependent manner. UV-C-irradiated cells had impaired growth, delayed or blocked development and delayed germination compared to control cells. In our previous studies we have shown that inhibition of PARP recovered oxidative stress-induced changes in D. discoideum; however, intriguingly PARP inhibition did not correct all defects as effectively in UV-C-irradiated cells. This possibly was due to interplay with increased NO signalling. CONCLUSIONS Our results signify that UV-C and oxidative stress affected growth and development in D. discoideum by different mechanisms; these studies could provide major clues to complex mechanisms of growth and development in higher organisms.

Abstract
Niacinamide, an amide of vitamin B3 (niacin), is a hydrophilic endogenous substance. Its effects after epicutaneous application have long been described in the literature. Given a sufficient bioavailability, niacinamide has antipruritic, antimicrobial, vasoactive, photo-protective, sebostatic and lightening effects depending on its concentration. Within a complex metabolic system niacinamide controls the NFκB-mediated transcription of signalling molecules by inhibiting the nuclear poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1). Niacinamide is a well-tolerated and safe substance often used in cosmetics. Clinical data for its therapeutic use in various dermatoses can increasingly be found in the literature. Although the existing data are not sufficient for a scientifically founded evaluation, it can be stated that the use of niacinamide in galenic preparations for epicutaneous application offers most interesting prospects.

Abstract
Since the first publication on Somatic Mutation Theory of Aging (Szilárd, 1959), a great volume of knowledge in the field has been accumulated. Here we attempted to organize the evidence "for" and "against" the hypothesized causal role of DNA damage and mutation accumulation in aging in light of four Koch-like criteria. They are based on the assumption that some quantitative relationship between the levels of DNA damage/mutations and aging rate should exist, so that (i) the longer-lived individuals or species would have a lower rate of damage than the shorter-lived, and (ii) the interventions that modulate the level of DNA damage and repair capacity should also modulate the rate of aging and longevity and vice versa. The analysis of how the existing data meets the proposed criteria showed that many gaps should still be filled in order to reach a clear-cut conclusion. As a perspective, it seems that the main emphasis in future studies should be put on the role of DNA damage in stem cell aging.

Abstract
Nicotinamide (vitamin B3) protects from ultraviolet (UV) radiation-induced carcinogenesis in mice and from UV-induced immunosuppression in mice and humans. Recent double-blinded randomized controlled Phase 2 studies in heavily sun-damaged individuals have shown that oral nicotinamide significantly reduces premalignant actinic keratoses, and may reduce new non-melanoma skin cancers. Nicotinamide is a precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)), an essential coenzyme in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. Previously, we showed that nicotinamide prevents UV-induced ATP decline in HaCaT keratinocytes. Energy-dependent DNA repair is a key determinant of cellular survival after exposure to DNA-damaging agents such as UV radiation. Hence, in this study we investigated whether nicotinamide protection from cellular energy loss influences DNA repair. We treated HaCaT keratinocytes with nicotinamide and exposed them to low-dose solar-simulated UV (ssUV). Excision repair was quantified using an assay of unscheduled DNA synthesis. Nicotinamide increased both the proportion of cells undergoing excision repair and the repair rate in each cell. We then investigated ssUV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8oxoG) formation and repair by comet assay in keratinocytes and with immunohistochemistry in human skin. Nicotinamide reduced CPDs and 8oxoG in both models and the reduction appeared to be due to enhancement of DNA repair. These results show that nicotinamide enhances two different pathways for repair of UV-induced photolesions, supporting nicotinamide's potential as an inexpensive, convenient and non-toxic agent for skin cancer chemoprevention.

Abstract
Nicotinamide is a water-soluble amide form of niacin (nicotinic acid or vitamin B3). Both niacin and nicotinamide are widely available in plant and animal foods, and niacin can also be endogenously synthesized in the liver from dietary tryptophan. Nicotinamide is also commercially available in vitamin supplements and in a range of cosmetic, hair, and skin preparations. Nicotinamide is the primary precursor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+), an essential coenzyme in ATP production and the sole substrate of the nuclear enzyme poly-ADP-ribose polymerase-1 (PARP-1). Numerous in vitro and in vivo studies have clearly shown that PARP-1 and NAD+ status influence cellular responses to genotoxicity which can lead to mutagenesis and cancer formation. This paper will examine the role of nicotinamide in the protection from carcinogenesis, DNA repair, and maintenance of genomic stability.

Abstract
To better understand the role of nicotinic acid and nicotinamide in the regulation of the oxidative stress response, we measured the levels of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) mRNA in Jurkat cells treated with these NAD+ precursors. We used a modified nonradioactive Northern blot method and detected the mRNA using 18-mer digoxigenin (DIG)-labeled oligonucleotides as probes. We observed increased levels of the mRNAs for the two enzymes in treated cells. Our findings suggest that the NAD+ precursors may protect against oxidative stress and DNA damage by up-regulating the stress response genes GAPDH and G6PD.

Abstract
Apoptosis (programmed cell death) is a central protective response to excess oxidative damage (especially DNA damage), and is also essential to embryogenesis, morphogenesis and normal immune function. An understanding of the cellular events leading to apoptosis is important for the design of new chemotherapeutic agents directed against the types of leukemias and lymphomas that are resistant to currently used chemotherapeutic protocols. We present here a review of the characteristic features of apoptosis, the cell types and situations in which it occurs, the types of oxidative stress that induce apoptosis, the signal-transduction pathways that either induce or prevent apoptosis, the biologic significance of apoptosis, the role of apoptosis in cancer, and an evaluation of the methodologies used to identify apoptotic cells. Two accompanying articles, demonstrating classic apoptosis and non-classic apoptosis in the same Epstein-Barr virus-transformed lymphoid cell line, are used to illustrate the value of employing multiple criteria to determine the type of cell death occurring in a given experimental system. Aspects of apoptosis and programmed cell death that are not covered in this review include histochemistry, details of cell deletion processes in the sculpting of tissues and organs in embryogenesis and morphogenesis, and the specific pathways leading to apoptosis in specific cell types. The readers should refer to the excellent books and reviews on the morphology, biochemistry and molecular biology of apoptosis already published on these topics. Emphasis is placed, in this review, on a proposed common pathway of apoptosis that may be relevant to all cell types.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation reaction, that is the transfer of the ADP-ribose moiety of NAD+ to acceptor protein, is catalyzed by two classes of ADP-ribosyltransferases, i.e., poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase and mono(ADP-ribosyl)transferases. These two types differ not only in the number of transferring ADP-ribose units but also in the acceptor amino acid(s) and protein. Their inhibitors, particularly those of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase, have been successfully employed in studies on biological functions of the enzymes and other related fields of research. Recently, we found many potent and specific inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase, and broadened their chemical as well as biochemical variety. More recently, we found several potent inhibitors of arginine-specific mono(ADP-ribosyl)transferases and activators of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase.

Abstract
We have studied the role of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase in the repair of DNA damage induced by x-ray and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) by using V79 chinese hamster cells, and two derivative mutant cell lines, ADPRT54 and ADPRT351, that are deficient in poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity. Under exponentially growing conditions these mutant cell lines are hypersensitive to x-irradiation and MNNG compared to their parental V79 cells which could be interpreted to suggest that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is involved in the repair of DNA damage. However, the level of DNA strand breaks induced by x-irradiation and MNNG and their rates of repair are similar in all the cell lines, thus suggesting that it may not be the difference in strand break formation or in its rate of repair that is contributing to the enhanced cell killing in exponentially growing poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase deficient cell lines. In contrast, under growth-arrested conditions, all three cell lines become similarly sensitive to both x-irradiation and MNNG, thus suggesting that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase may not be involved in the repair of DNA damage in growth-arrested cells. These paradoxical results could be interpreted to suggest that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is involved in DNA repair in a cell-cycle-dependent fashion, however, it is functionally active throughout the cell cycle. To resolve this dilemma and explain these results and those obtained by many others, we propose that the normal function of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is to prevent DNA recombination processes and facilitate DNA ligation.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is a major nuclear protein of 116 kd, coded by a gene on chromosome 1, that plays a role in cellular responses to DNA breakage. The polymerase binds to DNA at single- and double-strand breaks and synthesizes long branched chains of poly(ADP-ribose), which covalently, but transiently, modifies itself and numerous other cellular proteins and depletes cells of NAD+. This much is known, but the physiological role of the polymerization-degradation cycle is still unclear. Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of proteins generally inhibits their function and can dissociated chromatin proteins from DNA. Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase increases to toxicity of alkylating agents and some other DNA-damaging agents and increases sister-chromatid exchange frequencies. During repair of alkylation damage, inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase makes no change in excision of damaged products. increases the total number of repair patches, accelerates the rejoining of DNA breaks, and makes variable increases or decreases in net break frequencies. The polymerization cycle consequently is a major player in the response of cells to DNA breakage, but the game it plays is yet to be explained.

Abstract
Effects of cellular energy metabolism on the radiation response of a cell derived from a human cerebral glioma have been studied under conditions of energy limitation produced by the presence of inhibitors of respiratory metabolism (KCN) and glycolysis (glucose analogues such as 2-DG, 5-TG, and 3-0-MG). Radiation 60Co induced DNA repair (Unscheduled DNA Synthesis) and micronuclei formation were studied as measures of radiation response. Glycolysis (lactate production) and levels of adenine and related nucleotides (UTP, GTP, ATP etc.) were measured as parameters of energy metabolism. Two 2-DG (5 mM) inhibited DNA repair and increased micronuclei frequency both in the presence and absence of respiration (KCN, 2 mM). Under similar experimental conditions, the presence of 2-DG also significantly reduced the cellular energy status. Five-TG and 3-0-MG on the other hand, neither significantly altered the energy status (sigma XTP) nor influenced the radiation response under respiratory proficient conditions. The results can be explained on the basis of a model postulating differential energy linked modulations of the repair and fixation processes acting on DNA lesions. Implications of the present results for the radiotherapy of brain tumors are discussed.

Abstract
The enzyme poly(ADP-ribosyl)transferase (ADPRT) becomes activated soon after a mitogenic stimulus is applied to lymphocyte cultures. It has also been reported that ADPRT inhibitors prevent cell proliferation when added to cultures at the same time as the mitogen. While this has been ascribed to the need to seal physiologically present DNA strand breaks before cells enter S phase, the presence of DNA strand breaks in quiescent human lymphocytes has been recently questioned. We demonstrate here that non-toxic concentrations of ADPRT inhibitors do not affect lymphocyte blastization and proliferation, as measured by thymidine incorporation and cytofluorimetry. We therefore suggest that ADPRT activation is required for late functions which are not needed for cell cycle progression.

Abstract
In cultured human epidermal cells exposure to the vesicant sulfur mustard (HD) causes a decrease of the NAD+ content, which depends on the dose and the time period between exposure to HD and NAD+ measurement. Presumably, this NAD+ loss is due to activation of the enzyme NAD:protein ADP-ribosyltransferase (ADPRT) and may lead to glycolysis inhibition, disturbance of energy metabolism, and eventually cell death. Since prevention of this NAD+ depletion could lead to cell survival, HD-exposed cultures have been incubated with nicotinamide, a precursor of NAD+ and an inhibitor of ADPRT. Although a reduction in NAD+ levels of the cultures can be prevented, the uptake of glucose, which was taken as a measure for cellular viability, appears to be inhibited in cultures in which the NAD+ levels are at the 100% level at 4 hr after exposure. Therefore, prophylactic or therapeutic measures that are focused on maintenance of NAD+ levels in order to preserve energy supplies do not protect human epidermal cells in culture that have been exposed to HD. These experiments indicate that mechanisms other than NAD+ depletion may play an important role in HD-induced cell injury in human skin.

Abstract
We report on the individual and combined effects of doxorubicin (DOX) and hyperthermia (HYP) on nucleoid sedimentation and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activity of L1210 cells. The effects of HYP and DOX on nucleoid sedimentation (increased sedimentation) were similar and correlated with cell viability. No correlation of PARP activity with cell toxicity was evident; the activity of PARP was inhibited by HYP (42 degrees C; 1-3 h) and stimulated by DOX (1-10 microM; 30 min). The HYP-induced inhibition of PARP was actually ameliorated by simultaneous exposure to DOX. Although separate studies have previously suggested that chromatin alterations or the inhibition of PARP might play a role in the effect of HYP, the correlation of nucleoid changes (rather than PARP activity) with cell viability emphasizes the contribution of the former. Furthermore, the results suggest that the nucleoid technique may prove useful in screening potential treatment modalities.

Abstract
An inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis, 3-aminobenzamide (3AB), at low concentrations (0.01-0.1 mM) was found to reduce strand-break frequencies and increase repair replication in human lymphoid cells damaged by methyl methanesulfonate. A concentration of 0.1 mM 3AB was adequate to produce a maximum effect on strand-break frequencies and repair replication. This evidence, together with our previous measurements, demonstrates that 3AB cannot be regarded as an inhibitor of DNA repair; rather, it actually accelerates the ligation of DNA repair patches. Previous considerations of 3AB as a repair inhibitor may have derived from the use of excessive concentrations above 1 mM that may have stimulated additional damage and from the use of ethyl alcohol as a solvent for 3AB. Interpretations of the role of single-strand breaks and poly(ADP-ribose) in DNA repair, differentiation, and gene activity may need reevaluation because they have frequently been based on an erroneous notion of 3AB as a repair inhibitor, when its mode of action is, in fact, more complex.

Abstract
D-ribose is cytotoxic for quiescent human lymphocytes and severely inhibits their PHA-induced proliferation at concentrations (25-50 mM) at which other simple sugars are ineffective. In order to explain these effects, DNA repair synthesis was evaluated in PHA-stimulated human lymphocytes treated with hydroxyurea and irradiated. D-ribose, in contrast to other reducing sugars, did not induce repair synthesis and therefore did not apparently damage DNA in a direct way, although it markedly inhibited gamma ray-induced repair. Taking into account that lymphocytes must rejoin physiologically-formed DNA strand breaks in order to enter the cell cycle, we suggest that D-ribose exerts its cytotoxic activity by interfering with metabolic pathways critical for the repair of DNA breaks.

Abstract
Nicotinamide is an inhibitor of adenosine diphosphate ribosyl transferase (ADPRT) which is involved in the mechanism of DNA repair after high doses of ionizing radiation. C3H mice with transplanted mammary adenocarcinomas were treated with low doses of nicotinamide, 10 mg/kg, 5 days a week, and in combination with ionizing radiation, 30 Gy, using different drug dose schedules. Mice given nicotinamide in combination with irradiation took a longer time to reach a tumor volume of 1,000 mm3 and a higher complete response rate (i.e. defined as total disappearance of the tumor for at least 7 days) than those given radiation alone. This was true whether nicotinamide was given daily from one week before tumor transplantation until the animal was killed or from transplantation day until day of irradiation. In addition, nicotinamide given per os at a dose between the recommended maximum daily allowance for human subjects (20 mg/70 kg), and the therapeutic allowance (1 g-12 g daily) 5 days a week for 9 weeks, showed a radiosensitizing effect without any histologically detectable damage to the normal tissues of the mouse, including bone marrow, intestine and the liver.

Abstract
We studied the DNA repair capacity, as measured by unscheduled DNA synthesis, of resting lymphocytes from a long-lived strain of mouse after UV irradiation. Lymphocytes from old mice showed a lower level of repair than lymphocytes from young mice. After in vitro treatment with nicotinamide, a precursor of cellular NAD+, the level of UV-induced DNA repair increased in resting lymphocytes from both young and old mice. This effect was more dramatic in old mice, which showed a twofold relative increase in repair. Nicotinamide at a concentration of 0.5-5 mM did not inhibit the proliferation of concanavalin A (Con A) stimulated mouse lymphocytes; on the contrary, 3-amino benzamide, a potent poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase inhibitor, strongly affected the lymphocyte responsiveness to Con A. Nicotinamide did not significantly increase the UV-induced DNA repair in lymphocytes stimulated to proliferate by Con A. However, Con A activated, but non-proliferating (hydroxyurea-treated) lymphocytes from old mice displayed a level of DNA repair similar to that of lymphocytes from young animals. These results suggest that one of the limiting factors affecting the DNA repair activity of resting lymphocytes from old mice is the level of intracellular NAD+.

Abstract
ADP-ribosyl transferase (ADPRT) is a DNA-dependent chromatin-associated enzyme which covalently attaches ADP-ribose moieties derived from NAD+ to protein acceptors to form poly(ADP-ribose). ADPRT activity is strongly stimulated by breaks in DNA, and it is suggested that its activity is required for efficient DNA excision repair. In this paper, a cell-cycle-dependent fluctuation of basal ADPRT activity was demonstrated by measuring it in permeabilized FL cells. The cell used was subjected to arginine starvation for 48 h before being released from the block by replacement of deficient medium with complete medium and cells in different proliferating stages were traced by [3H]TdR pulse labelling and obtained at different intervals after block release. The peak basal ADPRT activity appeared 4-6 h after the appearance of the peak of DNA synthesis. After treating the cells with MNNG (10(-4) M), MMS (10(-3)-10(-4) M) and 4NQO (10(-5) M) for 90 min just after release of the block, the ADPRT activity was markedly stimulated. It was further demonstrated that the effects of MNNG/4NQO and cell cycle influence on the level of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis appear to be additive. While concerning MMS, quite a different pattern of ADPRT stimulation in the cell cycle was demonstrated, i.e., the activity of ADPRT stimulation of 10(-3) M MMS was found to be completely dependent on the basal ADPRT activity. In the cells with the highest basal ADPRT activity 12 h after block release, the MMS-induced ADPRT stimulation could not be observed. It was suggested that more than one pathway might be present in ADPRT stimulation induced by DNA-damaging chemicals, and the cells synchronized in late G1 stage might be the most suitable for demonstrating poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis after DNA damage.

Abstract
We have investigated the role of poly(ADP)-ribosylation of adenoviral proteins in virus infection. Viral core proteins V and the precursor to protein VII were shown to be in vivo and in vitro acceptors of ADP-ribose. In vivo ADP-ribosylation was restricted to viral proteins as the histones were not labeled during the late phase of infection. The ADP-ribosylated core proteins were assembled into mature virus particles. In vitro ADP-ribosylation of adenoviral core proteins performed with purified poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase led to relaxation of the chromatin structure of both ts1 and wild type pyridine cores and pentonless particles and triggered the complete dissociation of wild type particles. A critical role for poly(ADP)-ribosylation in virus infection was confirmed by measuring the effect of the inhibitors 3-aminobenzamide and nicotinamide on virus particle yield and infectivity. Both inhibitors depressed particle yield by up to 9-fold, but infectivity was reduced by up to 10(4)-fold. These results suggest that ADP-ribosylation of adenovirus core proteins may have a role in virus decapsidation.

Abstract
We have observed that two promoters of liver carcinogenesis, i.e. phenobarbital and barbital, markedly increase DNA-repair synthesis of cultured hepatocytes following treatment with the ultimate carcinogens methyl methanesulfonate, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, N-acetoxy-2-acetylaminofluorene, and UV light of 254 nm. Phenobarbital also increased the incorporation rates of deoxynucleoside triphosphates into nuclear DNA of permeabilized hepatocytes following carcinogen treatment. The action of these barbiturates apparently correlates with their potential to promote hepatocarcinogenesis in vivo, since the non-promoting agent barbituric acid did not modify carcinogen-induced repair synthesis. Moreover, the mechanisms of action of tumor-promoting barbiturates is different from the known enhancing action on repair synthesis of inhibitors of nuclear poly(ADP-ribose) biosynthesis.

Abstract
An affinity adsorbent for ADP-ribosyltransferase (EC 2.4.2.30) has been synthesized by coupling 3-aminobenzamide to Sepharose 4B. Using this material, ADP-ribosyltransferase from human placenta has been purified from crude extract to homogeneity within a few hours. The enzyme has an apparent Km for NAD+ of 52 microM. Its molecular mass is 115,000 as determined by gel electrophoresis. The enzyme is DNA dependent and stimulated by histone, its temperature optimum is at 25 degrees C, and its pH optimum is around pH 9. alpha-NAD+, thymidine, caffeine, theophylline, theobromine, 3-methoxybenzamide, and nicotinamide inhibit the enzyme. Purification of ADP-ribosyltransferases from horse, rat, and chicken liver was also achieved with the method described.

Abstract
Effects of hyperthermia and nicotinamide on ADP-ribosyl transferase activity (ADPRT), unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS), NAD+- and ATP-pools and cytotoxicity were investigated in gamma-irradiated human mononuclear leukocytes. A significant decrease in radiation-induced UDS after heat treatment for 45 min was found. Nicotinamide increased the UDS levels in irradiated cells, but no effect of hyperthermia on these increased UDS values was observed. In the presence of 2 mM nicotinamide radiation-induced ADPRT activity was reduced to about 50 per cent. However, hyperthermia for 45 min was found to have no effect on the enzyme activity for temperatures below 46 degrees C. Nicotinamide increased the NAD+ pool in unirradiated cells. Damaging the cells with gamma-radiation leads to a severe depletion of the NAD+ pool. The NAD+ pool is restored, however, if the cells repair for 5 h at 37 degrees C. When radiation-damaged cells were treated with hyperthermia, exogenously supplied nicotinamide could not be converted to NAD+ in sufficient amounts to prevent NAD+ depletion. These data indicate that the radiosensitizing effect of heat and nicotinamide could both be explained by effects on the enzyme ADPRT, i.e. nicotinamide by directly blocking the enzyme and hyperthermia by limiting the co-substrate (NAD+).

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) is a nuclear polymer that is synthesized in response to DNA-strand breaks and covalently modifies numerous nuclear proteins. Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase by 3-amino-benzamide in cells exposed to DNA-damaging agents has a variety of cellular effects, including increases in cell killing, frequency of single-strand breaks, repair replication, and sister-chromatid exchange. These increases have been interpreted as an indication that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerization regulates the rate of ligation. Because of slow ligation, continued repair polymerization should therefore generate longer repair patches. Direct measurement of the rate of ligation of intracellular repair patches and of the size of repair patches indicates that they are unchanged when poly(ADP-ribose) polymerization is inhibited. We therefore conclude that poly(ADP-ribose) does not regulate the ligation stage of repair but instead may regulate the activity of intracellular nucleases and other enzymes that can cause additional DNA damage and changes in chromatin structure.

Abstract
Deoxyadenosine has been implicated as the toxic metabolite causing profound lymphopenia in immunodeficient children with a genetic deficiency of adenosine deaminase (ADA), and in adults treated with the potent ADA inhibitor deoxycoformycin. However, the biochemical basis for deoxyadenosine toxicity toward lymphocytes remains controversial. The present experiments have examined in detail the sequential metabolic changes induced in nondividing human peripheral blood lymphocytes by incubation with deoxyadenosine plus deoxycoformycin, or with 2-chlorodeoxyadenosine (CdA), an ADA resistant deoxyadenosine congener with anti-leukemic and immunosuppressive properties. The lymphotoxic effect of deoxyadenosine and CdA required their phosphorylation, and was inhibited by deoxycytidine. As early as 4 h after exposure to the deoxynucleosides, strand breaks in lymphocyte DNA began to accumulate, and RNA synthesis decreased. These changes were followed by a significant fall in intracellular NAD levels at 8 h, a drop in ATP pools at 24 h, and cell death by 48 h. Incubation of the lymphocytes with 5 mM nicotinamide, a NAD precursor and an inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase, prevented NAD depletion. The nicotinamide treatment also rendered the lymphocytes highly resistant to deoxyadenosine and CdA toxicity, without altering dATP formation or the accumulation of DNA strand breaks. The poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase inhibitor 3-aminobenzamide exerted a similar although less potent effect. These results suggest that NAD depletion, probably triggered by poly(ADP-ribose) formation, is the principle cause of death in normal resting human lymphocytes exposed to deoxyadenosine plus deoxycoformycin, or to CdA.

Abstract
The evidence implicating poly (ADP-ribose) in the radiation response of mammalian cells is reviewed. It is concluded that the apparently conflicting results using inhibitors of ADP-ribosyl transferase (ADPRT) can be explained by a working hypothesis. This hypothesis maintains that poly (ADP-ribose) is required for repair of radiation damage (presumably to facilitate ligation). In most cells the synthesis of poly (ADP-ribose) is not rate limiting for repair and therefore, an almost complete inhibition of ADPRT activity is required to potentiate the radiation response. In radiation-sensitive cells (e.g. resting lymphocytes, L5178Y-S cells) with a deficient poly (ADP-ribose) metabolism, its synthesis can become rate limiting for repair. In such cells even a partial inhibition of ADPRT activity may enhance radiation-induced cell killing. It is suggested that if such differences exist between normal and cancer cells, they can be utilized to improve the therapeutic ratio of radiotherapy.

Abstract
3-Aminobenzamide does not deplete cellular purine deoxynucleoside triphosphate pools as do the structurally-related ribonucleotide reductase inhibitors, the hydroxy- and amino-substituted benzohydroxamic acids. Thus, the previously reported ability of 3-aminobenzamide to inhibit de novo synthesis of DNA purines does not appear to be due to a direct effect on pools via inhibition of ribonucleotide reductase. The enhancement rather than inhibition by 3-aminobenzamide of DNA repair in the present studies, however, leaves open the possibility that pool modulation may play a role in cell systems where repair inhibitory effects are seen.

Abstract
Mouse lymphocytes have been shown to contain DNA strand breaks that were repaired within 2h of onset of culture with mitogen. Inhibitors of ADP ribosylation prevented this repair and blocked cell proliferation. The mitogen concanavalin A caused the internal concentration of NAD+, the substrate of the ADP ribose polymerase, to rise to about double that of resting cells within 45 min of stimulation. Addition of 300 micron nicotinamide to the culture in absence of mitogen also resulted in a similar increase in internal [NAD+], resulting in increased ADP ribosylation activity (measured in permeabilized cells) and in joining of DNA strand breaks; however, none of the subsequent events of lymphocyte activation such as blast transformation and DNA synthesis occurred. These findings indicate that (1) cellular [NAD+] is a rate limiting factor in repair of DNA strand breaks in resting lymphocytes and (2) this repair is necessary but not sufficient for lymphocyte proliferation.

Abstract
Two cloned human lymphoblastoid cell lines, Raji and TK6, differ in their sensitivity to the cytotoxic effects of nitrogen mustard (HN2). Raji cells exhibit a biphasic response with an initial D value of 0.06 microgram/ml and a final slope of 0.25 microgram/ml. TK6 cells were considerably more sensitive, D0 value 0.02 microgram/ml. Dose-response relationships for delay in cell cycle progression were measured using flow cytometry. Delay in S-phase traverse was concentration-dependent in both cell lines, and at a given concentration was 2-fold greater in TK6 than in Raji. Numbers of crosslinks (determined by alkaline elution) increased linearly with increasing HN2 concentration and were approximately 2-fold higher in TK6 than in Raji. At equal levels of DNA crosslinks, rates of removal were similar in both cell lines. Inhibition of [3H]TdR uptake was concentration-dependent and the extent of inhibition was similar in both cell lines. Recovery from HN2-induced inhibition of cell cycle progression markedly preceded recovery from inhibition of [3H]TdR incorporation suggesting that nucleotide pools are markedly perturbed in HN2-treated cells. The difference in sensitivity of these two cell lines cannot be adequately explained by differences in amounts of initial DNA damage, rates of repair, differential S-phase delay or rate of loss of DNA crosslinks.

Inhibitors of the chromosomal enzyme ADP-ribosyl transferase, like nicotinamide, have been shown to inhibit DNA strand rejoining and also to potentiate the lethality of DNA damaging agents in vitro. We have examined the radiosensitizing potential of nicotinamide in vivo by using transplanted C3H mouse mammary adenocarcinomas as our model system.

Abstract
3-Aminobenzamide and benzamide, purported to be specific inhibitors of the synthesis of poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose), were used to elucidate possible functions of this biopolymer. These compounds, at frequently used experimental concentrations, not only inhibited the action of poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) synthetase but also affected cell viability, glucose metabolism, and DNA synthesis. Thus, the usefulness of 3-aminobenzamide and benzamide may be severely restricted by the difficulty of finding a dose small enough to inhibit the synthetase without producing additional metabolic effects.

Abstract
3-Aminobenzamide (3AB) is a potent inhibitor of poly (ADP-ribose) synthesis and has been reported to inhibit DNA repair. Inhibition of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis by 3AB results in a potentiation of the cytotoxic effects of alkylating agents and synergistically increases the frequency of sister chromatid exchanges (SCEs) induced in Chinese hamster ovary cells by methyl methanesulfonate (MMS). Experiments were carried out to determine if this synergism was related to an inhibition of the repair or the removal of SCE-forming lesions by 3AB. Cells were treated with MMS or ethyl nitrosourea (ENU) and either held in a nonproliferative state or maintained in exponential growth for up to 48 hr before SCE frequencies were measured. During this time, the SCE frequency decreased greatly. 3AB did not affect this decrease in either cycling or noncycling cells. Furthermore, 3AB appears to exert its effect only in cycling cells when bromodeoxyuridine is present. Therefore, the synergism between 3AB and alkylating agents in the induction of SCEs is unrelated to effects of 3AB on the repair or removal of SCE-forming lesions.

Abstract
We have directly compared in resting human mononuclear leukocytes the DNA repair effects caused by ADP-ribosyl transferase (ADPRT) activity following DNA damage induction by gamma radiation, UV radiation, ethylene oxide (EO) and N-acetoxy-2-acetylaminofluorene (NA-AAF). The presence of inhibitors of ADPRT during the quantitation of unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) resulted in about a 2-fold increase of UDS when induced by gamma radiation, UV radiation or EO. The stimulation of UDS by EO, UV- or gamma-radiation in the presence of an ADPRT inhibitor was equally strong whether 1 mM or 10 mM hydroxyurea was used to suppress scheduled DNA synthesis. The level of NA-AAF induced UDS was not affected by inhibitors of ADPRT. In addition, direct estimation of ADPRT activity revealed that at doses giving maximal UDS, NA-AAF damage did not induce a measurable enzymatic activity whereas gamma-radiation, UV radiation and EO all showed a significant dose response increase. We have interpreted our data to mean that NA-AAF induced UDS estimates DNA repair relating mainly to DNA lesions that are recognized with difficulty, and hence, the rate of endonuclease-induced DNA strand break accumulation is not sufficient to allow a stimulation of ADPRT and affect the quantitation of UDS.

Abstract
During an ischemic cell injury, cellular NAD levels are lowered and DNA is damaged in a manner similar to other types of injury. Nicotinic acid given to an animal prior to the ischemic insult, caused very little change in the NAD levels but minimized the DNA damage of the injury. This protection is eliminated by 3-aminobenzamide which indicates a possible involvement of poly (ADP-ribose) synthetase in the process.

Abstract
The NAD pools of Xenopus laevis oocytes and early embryos can be radioactively labelled by microinjection of [adenine-3H]NAD. This technique is used to study the metabolism of NAD in oocytes and during early development. The rate at which NAD is degraded in vivo has been monitored by determining the rate of transfer of adenine residues from the NAD pool into other nucleotides and polynucleotides. In oocytes, NAD turnover is extremely slow, with a half-life of about 400 h. NAD turnover increases dramatically after fertilisation, and the half-life of the compound decreases to 37 h in 5-h-old embryos and to 10 h in 40-h-old embryos. 2 mM 3-aminobenzamide, a specific inhibitor of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, reduces the NAD turnover rate by about 20%, whereas 5 mM isonicotinic acid hydrazide, a specific inhibitor of NAD glycohydrolase, produces no significant inhibition. This indicates that a significant fraction of the considerable NAD turnover observed involves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. Our results indicate that poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase is active during early development and suggest that this activity may be involved in one or more aspects of the nuclear metabolism of the embryo.

Abstract
Nicotinamide (NA) when added to human lymphocytes in vitro together with a mitogen, protected against the inhibition by gamma and UV radiation of stimulated cell growth. When stimulated by phytohemagglutinin (PHA), concanavalin A (Con A) or pokeweed mitogen (PWM) maximum protection has been observed with approximately 1 mM NA (dose reduction factor of 2-3). To obtain protection the cells had to be stimulated immediately after irradiation in the presence of NA. It is suggested that the intracellular level of NAD+ may be rate limiting for excision repair in human lymphocytes irradiated in the G0 phase. This level is presumably increased by exogenously supplied NA, leading to enhanced repair of DNA damage and increased survival.

Abstract
Since the discovery of the mutagenic activity of N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) in 1960, this compound has become one of the most widely used chemical mutagens. The present paper gives a survey on the chemistry, metabolism, and mode of interaction of MNNG with DNA and proteins, and of the genotoxic effects of this agent on microorganisms, plants, and animals, including human cells cultured in vitro. Data on the carcinogenicity and teratogenicity of MNNG as well as on the genotoxic effects of homologs of MNNG are also presented.
