摘要：

Melatonin inhibits DNA-adduct formation induced by the chemical carcinogen safrole in a dose-dependent manner. Total DNA-adduct formation after in vivo administration of 300 mg/kg safrole measured by P-32-postlabeling analysis of carcinogen-modified DNA in rat liver was 36 751 +/- 2290 counts/min/10 mug DNA. Coadministration of 300 mg/kg safrole with either 0.2 mg/kg (low dose) or 0.4 mg/kg (high dose) melatonin reduced DNA-adduct formation induced by safrole to 22 182 +/- 987 counts/min/10 mug DNA and 462 +/- 283 counts/min/10 mug DNA, respectively. Circulating melatonin concentrations at the termination of the study in safrole, low melatonin and high melatonin groups were 50 +/- 8, 3140 +/- 430 and 10 040 +/- 2610 pg/ml serum, respectively. The results suggest that melatonin protects against safrole associated DNA damage.
