PG - 943-8 AB - The cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) photolyase in fish cells is known to be regulated by environmental factors, such as light, hydrogen peroxide and growth inhibition. The induction of CPD photolyase by light in cultured goldfish cells was dependent on the wavelength of the light, and UVA and blue light had high inductive activity. The spectrum for CPD photolyase activity was different from that for the induction. Treatment with blue or yellow light for a short time, which did not induce any CPD photolyase, induced high CPD photolyase activity in the presence of the photosensitizers, TPPS (monosulfonated meso-tetraphenyl porphine) and ALPS (aluminum phthalocyanine tetrasulfonate), respectively. These results suggest that the induction of CPD photolyase might be triggered by active oxygen produced by light and cellular photosensitizers. We also found that immediately after treatment with UVA, blue light or a photosensitizer in combination with light, cellular attachment to the substratum was enhanced, as was the CPD photolyase activity. Pretreatment with a flavonoid, quercetin, inhibited both photoinduction of CPD photolyase and enhancement of cellular attachment. Vitamin E inhibited only photoinduction of CPD photolyase activity. Treatment with H7, a strong inhibitor for protein kinase C, after light treatment inhibited photoinduction of CPD photolyase activity, but an analogue of H7, Ha1004, which is a weak inhibitor of protein kinase C, did not have such an effect.
