Adaptive response in human lymphocytes conditioned with hydrogen peroxide before irradiation with X-rays

Abstract: Cultured human lymphocytes were first exposed to a low 'conditioning' dose of hydrogen peroxide and, subsequently, irradiated with a 'challenge' dose of 1.5 Gy of X-rays in order to analyse the induction of an adaptive response to oxidative damage. A significant reduction in X-ray-induced chromosome damage was evident when H2O2 was given as a single 30 min pulse 24 h after setting up the cultures and the lymphocytes were exposed to X-rays at 48 h. In contrast, when the cells underwent a repeated exposure to H2… Show more

“…Other observations worthy of note regarding eukaryotic adaptive responses include reports of this adaptation in vivo (4,(15)(16)(17), the variability of this reponse in human lymphocytes from different donors (18), its requirement for de novo protein synthesis (15,16), and the cross-resistance to certain agents (19)(20)(21).…”

“…Cortes (20) reported the induction of an adaptive reponse in human lymphocytes by H202 that protected these cells against subsequent lethal X-irradiation. Reports in the literature describe a number of similar cross-resistant examples.…”

“…38 Recently, many efforts have been made to prove LDR can induce ARs. 12,39 An LDR-induced AR is a phenomenon in which pre-exposure of cells to LDR (inductive dose, D1) renders cells more resistant to damage from subsequent HDR (challenge dose, D2) or other toxic agents. 14 In this section, we focus on the efforts and achievements made by Chinese researchers on AR and LDR-associated mechanisms of induction, especially for immune and hematopoietic systems (Figure 1).…”

“…Even ten minutes after the pretreatment of CHO cells with H 2 O 2 a cross-resistance to N- methyl -N ′ - nitro -N- nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) and γ-irradiation was reported; however, the cells were not cross-resistant to UV light [174]. The adaptive response induced by H 2 O 2 was observed in human lymphocytes to protect these cells against otherwise lethal X-ray irradiation [145]. Some molecular changes were observed during the stress adaptation.…”
