We compared the effects of bleomycin (BLM) and ionizing radiation on two sublines of murine lymphoma L5178Y (LY): LY-R, radiation resistant and LY-S, radiation sensitive. This radiosensitivity difference is related to the ability to rejoin DNA double strand breaks. LY-S cells were about two times more sensitive to BLM than LY-R, similarly as in the case of sensitivity to X rays. Since there was no difference in the P-glycoprotein-related drug transport system between the sublines, it could be expected that the enhanced sensitivity of LY-S cells to BLM was caused by the DNA repair defect. Growth disturbances in BLM treated cell populations were proportional to the lethal effect and their duration was observed until elimination of dead cells (3-6 days after 50 ěM BLM, 1 h at 37oC). There was no slow growth phase accompanied by normal viability, as previously described for X-irradiated LY-S cells. Initial DNA damage, estimated with the single cell gel electrophoresis method was linearly related to BLM dose in LY-S cells; in LY-R cells - in the low dose range (up to 10 ěM) - there was more damage than in LY-S cells, however, at higher doses the dose - effect curves became identical. The doseeffect relationship for ă rays was linear and identical in both cell sublines. DNA damage distribution in BLM treated cells was much less uniform as compared to that in irradiated cells and indicated the presence of cells with severely damaged DNA, a feature typical for BLM action in vitro.
