Abstract

Flavonol derivatives were tested for their anticlastogenic effect against induction of micronuclei by n-methyl-n’-nitor-n-nitorsoguanidine(MNNG), and against induction of chromosome aberration by bleomycin or MNNG.belomycin. For micronudeus assay, each flavonol derivative (0, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10 and 100 mg/kg) was administered orally twice with 24 h interval, together with intraperitioneally administered MNNG(150 mg/kg). The result showed that msot flavonol derivatives tested were effective in suppresing the frequencies of micronude induced by MNNG. For chromosome aberration assy, each flavonol derivative (0, 0.1, 1, 10m and 100 mg/kg)was administered to mice orally in vivo, and then mice were sacrificed and spleen lymphocyte cultures were made. Bleomycin g/ml) was treated to the mouse spleen hymphocyte cultures at 24 h after con A initiation. There wre nomarked decrease tendencies in chromosome aberration unless all doses of galangin and some doses of several flavonol derivatives tested. In the another experiment, we have evaluated the effect of flavonol derivatives on the enhancement of bleomycin-induced chromsome aberration by MNNG. Most of flavonol derivtives reduced the incidence of chromosome aberration induced by in vitro treatment of bleomycin followed by in vivo treatment of MNNG. Galangin particulary showed a dose-dependent decrease tendency. Other flavonol derivative showed slightly suggest that most of flavonol derivatives may be capable of protecting the inhibition of suggest that most of flavonol derivatives may be capable of protecting the inhibition of DNA-repair by MNNG. Our data indicate clearly that flavonol derivatives can suppress MNNG-induced genotoxicity such as an induction of MNPCEs. Therfore, our results could suggest that flavonol derivtives may be useful as a chemopreventive agent of MNNG.
