A study of the aneugenic activity of trichlorfon detected by centromere-specific probes in human lymphoblastoid cell lines.

The potential of the pesticide trichlorfon to induce mitotic aneuploidy has been investigated in genetically engineered human lymphoblastoid cell lines. Trichlorfon failed to induce micronuclei in the AHH-1 and MCL-5 cell lines when treated in media at normal cell culture pH (pH 7.3). Under a treatment pH of 5.5, trichlorfon exposures resulted in the induction of both chromosome loss and chromosome non-disjunction as measured by fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) using a pan-centromeric probe for all human centromeres and centromere probes specific for chromosomes 2, 7 and 18. At treatment concentrations greater than 20 micrograms/ml trichlorfon also induced structural chromosome damage resulting in the production of centromere negative micronuclei.[1]
