We have studied the effect of H2O2 and O2− produced by xanthine and xanthine oxidase on NAD catabolism, poly(ADP-ribose) synthesis, and production of DNA single-strand breaks in C3H10T1/2 cells. The results show a correlation between the induction of DNA single-strand breaks, the decrease of NAD pool, and the accumulation of polymer. New techniques, based on affinity chromatography and reversed-phase high pressure liquid chromatography, have allowed an accurate determination of polymer contents and showed a 20-fold stimulation of polymer biosynthesis induced by active oxygen species. Inhibition experiments performed with 3-aminobenzamide have shown that the decrease in NAD levels after exposure of cells to active oxygen species was caused by stimulation of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation and of another cellular process.Key words: poly(ADP-ribose), free radicals, C3H10T1/2 cells, DNA breakage, NAD catabolism.

ABSTRACT The rat parvovirus H-1 (H-1PV) attracts high attention as an anticancer agent, because it is not pathogenic for humans and has oncotropic and oncosuppressive properties. The viral nonstructural NS1 protein is thought to mediate H-1PV cytotoxicity, but its exact contribution to this process remains undefined. In this study, we analyzed the effects of the H-1PV NS1 protein on human cell proliferation and cell viability. We show that NS1 expression is sufficient to induce the accumulation of cells in G2 phase, apoptosis via caspase 9 and 3 activation, and cell lysis. Similarly, cells infected with wild-type H-1PV arrest in G2 phase and undergo apoptosis. Furthermore, we also show that both expression of NS1 and H-1PV infection lead to higher levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), associated with DNA double-strand breaks. Antioxidant treatment reduces ROS levels and strongly decreases NS1- and virus-induced DNA damage, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis, indicating that NS1-induced ROS are important mediators of H-1PV cytotoxicity.
