| Abstract: | In the present study, two of the probable an umor marine compounds, manzamine A and sarcophine, were screened using benzoa]pyrene (BP)-derived DNA adduct formation in MCF-7 cells as intermediary biomarker. Briefly, MCF-7 cells were treated with
the compounds for 24 h followed by treatment with BP (0.5 μM). After 24h incubation, cellular DNA was isolated and analyzed
for BP-derived DNA adducts by 32P-postlabeling technique. Manzamine A and sarcophine increased the BP-DNA adducts by 2 to 4-folds. Further, manzamine A (50
μM) substantially down regulated the expression of p53 while sarcophine (50 μM) slightly induced the level of p21. The residual
DNA repair ability was almost completely abolished by manzamine A while sarcophine was ineffective. Based on our preliminary
results, these compounds may be classified as potential genotoxic. |
