Streptozotocin, but not alloxan, induces DNA repair synthesis in mouse pancreatic islets in vitro

Abstract: In the present investigation, the abilities of streptozotocin and alloxan to induce DNA repair synthesis in isolated mouse pancreatic islets have been compared using an autoradiographic technique. Streptozotocin exposure in vitro induced a dose-dependent DNA repair synthesis, whereas no such effect was observed after alloxan treatment. The hydroxyl radical scavenger dimethyl urea and the poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase inhibitors nicotinamide and theophylline reduced the streptozotocin-induced DNA repair. The resu… Show more

“…In the attempt to repair DNA, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is overstimulated. This diminishes cellular NAD + , and subsequently ATP, stores [82,[85][86][87]. The depletion of the cellular energy stores ultimately results in beta cell necrosis.…”

“…In pancreatic islets the activity of this enzyme increases upon exposure to streptozotocin, leading to cytotoxic cellular NAD depletion [5,6] coupled to increased DNA repair synthesis [7,8]. The B-cytotoxic effects of streptozotocin can be counteracted by inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase such as nicotinamide and 3-aminobenzamide [5,6,9,10].…”
