Comutagenic effects of valocordin
The chromosome aberration test in bone marrow cells of mice was used to study the influence of valocordin on spontaneous and induced clastogenesis. Valocordin showed no inherent clastogenic activity. In experiments with pretreatment and with single or repeated combined administration , valocordin in doses of 0.03, 0.3 and 3 ml/kg significantly (47–133 %) enhanced the clastogenic activity of cyclophosphamide. There was no effect of valocordin on the cytogenetic activity of dioxidine, a mutagen with a pro-oxidative mode of action. Possible mechanisms of comutagenic activity of valocordin are discussed.
