4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide is a potent mutagenic and carcinogenic compound that induces DNA damage and oxidative stress, making 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide an important tool for cancer research and the study of DNA repair mechanisms[1]. 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide is commonly used to induce cancers such as oral and esophageal cancer in animal models to study tumor development mechanisms and the efficacy of potential cancer therapies[2-3]. 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide intercalates into DNA, causing oxidative damage and inducing the formation of DNA adducts, which lead to mutations and cancer development[4].
In vitro, treatment of the epidermoid carcinoma cell line KB with 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide (0.5, 1.0, 2.0µM) significantly induced apoptosis and arrested the cell cycle in the G1 phase. 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide can cause mitochondrial damage, leading to upregulation of Bax expression and downregulation of Bcl-2[5]. Jurkat T cells and Daudi B cells were treated with 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2mM) for 48 hours, 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide significantly reduced the viability of Daudi B cells, increased the expression of the γH2AX protein, induced DNA damage, and promoted apoptosis. However, 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide had less toxicity towards Jurkat T cells[6].
In vivo, 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide (100µg/ml) was administered to C57BL/6J mice through drinking water for 8 and 16 weeks to induce esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Mice treated with 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide for 8 weeks exhibited esophageal epithelial dysplasia, while those treated for 16 weeks developed esophageal cancer. The esophageal lesions induced by 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide progressed from hyperplasia to dysplasia and eventually to carcinoma[7]. 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide (100µg/ml) was given to C57BL/6J mice through drinking water for 16 weeks. Senescent cells in the esophagus were detected by bioluminescence imaging in p16+/LUC mice at 14 weeks, primarily in the non-side population (Non-SP) cells. These senescent cells showed significant upregulation of Oncostatin-M (OSM), a cytokine associated with cancer development that can activate oncogenes such as C-MYC. Additionally, the migration of marrow-derived Gfp+ cells into the esophagus was detected in mice treated with 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide[8].

4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide是一种强致突变性和致癌性化合物,能够诱导DNA损伤和氧化应激而成为癌症研究和DNA修复机制研究中的重要工具[1]。4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide常用于诱导动物模型中的口腔癌、食管癌等癌症,以研究肿瘤发生机制和潜在癌症治疗的疗效[2-3]。4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide通过嵌入 DNA,引起氧化损伤并诱导 DNA 加合物的形成,从而导致突变和癌症的发生[4]。
在体外,4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide(0.5、1.0、2.0μM)处理表皮样癌细胞系(KB),4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide显著诱导细胞凋亡,并将细胞周期停滞在G(1)期。4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide可对线粒体造成损伤,引起bax表达水平上调和bcl-2下调[5]。4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide(0.5, 1, 1.5, 2mM)处理Jurkat T细胞和Daudi B细胞48小时,4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide显著抑制Daudi B细胞的活性,同时引起细胞中γH2AX蛋白表达水平,诱导DNA损伤,引起细胞凋亡水平增加,但4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide对Jurkat T细胞的毒性较小[6]。
在体内,4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide(100µg/ml)通过饮水给予C57BL/6J小鼠,分别处理8周和16周,用于诱导食管鳞状细胞癌(ESCC)。4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide处理8周的小鼠主要表现为食管上皮的异型增生,而处理16周的小鼠则发展为食管癌。4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide诱导的食管病变从增生进展到异型增生,最终发展为癌[7]。4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide以100µg/ml的浓度通过饮水给予C57BL/6J小鼠,持续16周。4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide处理的小鼠在14周时通过p16+/LUC小鼠的荧光素酶成像检测到食管中的衰老细胞,这些细胞主要位于非侧群(Non-SP)细胞中。4-NQO诱导的衰老细胞表现出Oncostatin-M(OSM)的显著上调,OSM是一种与癌症发生相关的细胞因子,能够激活C-MYC等癌基因。4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide处理的小鼠食管中还检测到骨髓来源的Gfp+细胞的迁移[8]。
Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | Jurkat T cells and Daudi B cells |
Preparation Method | Jurkat T cells and Daudi B cells were seeded into 48-well plates at a density of 1 × 10⁵ cells per well and cultured in RPMI-1640 medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum, 2mM glutamine, and 100U/ml penicillin and 100mg/ml streptomycin for 24 hours. The cells were then treated with different concentrations (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2mM) of 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide for 48 hours. |
Reaction Conditions | 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2mM 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide; 48 hours |
Applications | 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide significantly reduced the viability of Daudi B cells compared to Jurkat T cells, indicating higher susceptibility of B cells to 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide. 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide also induced DNA damage, marked by increased γH2AX expression, and promoted apoptosis in Daudi B cells. |
Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | C57BL/6J mice |
Preparation Method | Male C57BL/6J mice were used. Mice were given 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide at a concentration of 100µg/ml in their drinking water continuously for 16 weeks. Control mice were given regular drinking water without 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide. At 14 weeks, senescent cells in the esophagus were detected using p16+/LUC mice through bioluminescence imaging. Other tdTOMp16+ mice treated with 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide for the same duration were sacrificed, and their esophagi were removed for sorting of side population (SP) cells and non-side population (Non-SP) cells to analyze senescent cells and gene expression. At the end of the experiment, the esophagi were examined for histological changes and gene expression levels. |
Dosage form | 100µg/ml in drinking water for 16 weeks |
Applications | 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide significantly increased the number of senescent cells in the esophagus, particularly in the Non-SP cell population. These senescent cells showed upregulation of Oncostatin-M (OSM), a cytokine associated with cancer development. Additionally, 4-Nitroquinoline N-oxide treatment led to the migration of marrow-derived Gfp+ cells into the esophagus, indicating an inflammatory response. |
