mouse lymphoma L5178Y cells
Details on mammalian cell type (if applicable):
L5178Y cells, clone 3.7.2C, were obtained from Patricia Poorman-Allen, Glaxo Wellcome Inc., Research Triangle Park, NC on 14 August 1995. Each lot of cryopreserved cells was tested using the agar culture and Hoechst staining procedures and found to be free of mycoplasma contamination. Prior to use in the assay, L5178Y cells were cleansed of spontaneous TK-/- cells by culturing in a restrictive medium (Clive and Spector, 1975).

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method cloning efficiency
The average cloning efficiency of the solvent (or vehicle) controls must be between 65% and 120% and the total suspension growth between 8-32 for the 4-hour exposure

OTHER EXAMINATIONS:
none

OTHER:
Evaluation criteria:
Criteria for a Valid Test The following criteria must be met for the mutagenesis assay to be considered valid:

Negative Controls:
The average spontaneous mutant frequency of the solvent (or vehicle) control cultures must be within 35 to 140 TFT-resistant mutants per 106 surviving cells. Low spontaneous mutant frequencies, i.e., 20 to 34 mutants per 106 surviving cells, are considered acceptable if small colony recovery is demonstrated (Mitchell et al., 1997). The average cloning efficiency of the solvent (or vehicle) controls must be between 65% and 120% and the total suspension growth between 8-32 for the 4-hour exposure (Moore, et al., 2002; 2006; 2007).

Positive Controls
The mutant frequency for at least one dose of the positive controls must meet the criteria for a positive response and induce an increase in small colony mutants according to the following criteria: Induced Mutant Frequency (IMF) positive control = 300 x 10-6 mutants with 40% small colonies or small colony IMF for positive control = 150 x 10-6 (Moore, et al., 2002; 2006).

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
Preliminary Toxicity Assay
The results of the preliminary toxicity assay are presented in Table 1 (data not shown). The maximum concentration tested in the preliminary toxicity assay was 5000 µg/mL. Visible precipitate was present at concentrations = 150 µg/mL in treatment medium. The osmolality of the solvent control was 432 mmol/kg and the osmolality of the highest soluble concentration, 50 µg/mL, was 427 mmol/kg. Suspension growth relative to the solvent controls was 88% at µg/mL without activation and 25% at 5000 µg/mL with S9 activation. Based on the results of the toxicity test, the concentrations treated in the mutagenesis assay ranged from 5.0 to 200 µg/mL for both the non-activated and S9-activated cultures.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Results of the main test:

The results of the mutagenesis assay are presented in Tables 2 and 3 (data not shown). Visible precipitate was present in treatment medium at 200 µg/mL. In the non-activated system, cultures treated with concentrations from 50 to 200 µg/mL were cloned and produced a range in suspension growth from 95% to 104%. In the S9-activated system, cultures treated with concentrations from 50 to 200 µg/mL were cloned and produced a range in suspension growth from 60% to 98%.

No cloned cultures exhibited mutant frequencies that were = 90 mutants per 106 clonable cells over that of the solvent control. No concentration-related increase in mutant frequency was observed in the non-activated or S9-activated systems. The total growth ranged from 78% to 98% for the nonactivated cultures at concentrations from 50 to 200 µg/mL, and 58% to 88% for the S9-activated cultures at concentrations from 50 to 200 µg/mL.

The TFT-resistant colonies for the positive and solvent control cultures from both assays were sized according to diameter over a range from approximately 0.2 to 1.1 mm. The colony sizing for the MMS and DMBA positive controls yielded the expected increase in small colonies (verifying the adequacy of the methods used to detect small colony mutants) and large colonies.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results (migrated information):

Executive summary:

The test article, 98-06-1163, was tested in the L5178Y/TK+/- Mouse Lymphoma Mutagenesis Assay in the absence and presence of Aroclor-induced rat liver S9. The preliminary toxicity assay established the concentration range for the mutagenesis assays. The mutagenesis assay was used to evaluate the mutagenic potential of the test article. Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was selected as the solvent of choice based on solubility of the test article and compatibility with the target cells. The test article was soluble in DMSO at approximately 500 mg/mL, the maximum concentration tested. In the preliminary toxicity assay, the maximum concentration of 98-06-1163 in treatment medium was 5000 µg/mL. Visible precipitate was present at concentrations = 150 µg/mL in treatment medium. Selection of concentrations for the mutation assay was based on the precipitation profile. Substantial toxicity, i.e., suspension growth of = 50% of the solvent control, was observed at = 150 µg/mL only with S9 activation. Based on the results of the preliminary toxicity assay, the concentrations tested in the initial mutagenesis assay ranged from 5.0 to 200 µg/mL for both the non-activated and S9-activated cultures with a 4-hour exposure. Visible precipitate was present at a concentration of 200 µg/mL in treatment medium. The concentrations chosen for cloning were 50, 75, 100, 150, and 200 µg/mL No cloned cultures exhibited mutant frequencies = 90 mutants per 106 clonable cells over that of the solvent control. There was no concentration-related increase in mutant frequency. The trifluorothymidine-resistant colonies for the positive and solvent control cultures from both assays were sized according to diameter over a range from approximately 0.2 to 1.1 mm. The colony sizing for the MMS and DMBA positive controls yielded the expected increase in small colonies (verifying the adequacy of the methods used to detect small colony mutants) and large colonies. Under the conditions of this study, test article 98-06-1163 was concluded to be negative in the L5178Y/TK+/- Mouse Lymphoma Mutagenesis Assay.
