Efecto de la vitamina E(DL alfa-tocoferol) sobre el daño cromosómico en linfocitos de pacientes con ataxia telangiectasia
Background: In ataxia telangiectasia (A-T), the lack of a functional ATM kinase is associated with disturbances in the processing of DNA damage and a chronic oxidative stress. These disturbances may be responsible for an increment of chromosomal damage in A-T cells. Aim: To study the in vitro effect...

These disturbances may be responsible for an increment of chromosomal damage in A-T cells. Aim: To study the in vitro effect of vitamin E (DL-alpha-tocopherol) on the frequency of chromosomal damage of lymphocytes from patients with A-T. Patients and methods: Seven patients with A-T and age-sex matched controls were studied. Chromosomal damage in mitosis was evaluated in lymphocytes cultures both under basal conditions and when G2 repair was prevented by 5 mM caffeine. Results: In cells from patients with A-T, vitamin E induced a 57.1 and 47.9% decrease in chromosomal damage under basal and inhibited G2 repair conditions, respectively. However, there was a non significant improvement in their repair activity. Vitamin E effects on chromosomal damage was not significant in control subjects. Conclusions: Vitamin E reduces chromosomal damage in lymphocytes from patients with ataxia telangiectasia (Rev Med Chile 2002; 130: 957-63).info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSociedad Médica de SantiagoRevista médica de Chile v.130 n.9 20022002-09-01text/htmlhttp://www.scielo.cl/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0034-98872002000900001es10.4067/S0034-98872002000900001 |
