- Exposure duration/duration of treatment: 3 hours (+/- S9), 24 hours (-S9)
- Harvest time after the end of treatment (sampling/recovery times):
FOR CHROMOSOME ABERRATION AND MICRONUCLEUS:
- If cytokinesis blocked method was used for micronucleus assay: cytochalasin B (final concentration of 6 μg/mL), 20 hours for the 3-hours treatment groups; 24 hours for the 24-hours treatment group
- Methods of slide preparation and staining technique used including the stain used (for cytogenetic assays): All cultures were harvested approximately 24 hours after initiation of treatment. The cultures were centrifuged, the supernatant discarded, and the cells were swollen with 75 mM KCl, fixed in methanol: glacial acetic acid (3:1, v/v), dropped onto glass slides, and air dried. The slides were appropriately stained with acridine orange.
- Number of cells spread and analysed per concentration: a minimum of 200 cells per culture (when available) for the DRF, and a minimum of 500 cells per culture for the Micronucleus Assay
- Slide analysis:
Scoring was carried out using fluorescence microscopy. Binucleate cells were only included in the analysis if all of the following criteria were met:
1. The cytoplasm remained essentially intact, and
2. The daughter nuclei were of approximately equal size.
A micronucleus was only recorded if it met the following criteria:
1. The micronucleus had the same staining characteristics and a similar morphology to the main nuclei, and
2. Any micronucleus present was separate in the cytoplasm or only just touching a main nucleus, and
3. Micronuclei were smooth edged and smaller than approximately one third the diameter of the main nuclei.
For each treatment regime, two vehicle control cultures were analyzed for micronuclei. Slides from the positive control treatments were checked to ensure that the system was operating satisfactorily.
All slides for analysis were coded by an individual not connected with the scoring of the slides, such that analysis was conducted under blind conditions. Labels with only the study number, assay type, experiment number, the sex of the donor and the code were used to cover treatment details on the slides.
At least three concentrations were scored for micronucleus induction. Where possible, at least one thousand binucleate cells from each culture (2000 per concentration) were analyzed for micronuclei. The number of cells containing micronuclei and the number of micronuclei per cell on each slide were recorded.
Micronucleus analysis was not conducted on slides generated from the Range-Finder treatments.
METHODS FOR MEASUREMENT OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method:
CBPI = Number of mononucleate cells + (2 x number binucleate cells) + (3 x number multinucleate cells) / total number of cells in treated cultures
Relative CBPI (%) = (CBPI of treated cultures – 1) / (CBPI of vehicle controls – 1) x100
Cytotoxicity (%) is expressed as (100 – Relative CBPI). - Evaluation criteria:
- For valid data, the test article was considered to induce clastogenic and/or aneugenic events if:
1. A statistically significant increase in the frequency of MNBN cells at one or more concentrations was observed.
2. An incidence of MNBN cells at such a concentration that exceeded the normal range in both replicates was observed.
3. A concentration-related increase in the proportion of MNBN cells was observed.
The test article was considered positive in this assay if all of the above criteria were met.
The test article was considered negative in this assay if none of the above criteria were met.
Results which only partially satisfied the above criteria were dealt with on a case-by-case basis. Evidence of a concentration-related effect was considered useful but not essential in the evaluation of a positive result (Scott et al., 1990). Biological relevance was taken into account, for example consistency of response within and between concentrations, or effects occurring only at very toxic concentrations (Thybaud et al., 2007). - Statistics:
- The proportions of MNBN cells in each replicate were used to establish acceptable heterogeneity between replicates by means of a binomial dispersion test (Richardson et al., 1989).
The proportion of MNBN cells for each treatment condition was compared with the proportion in vehicle controls by using Fisher's exact test (Richardson et al., 1989). A Cochran-Armitage trend test was applied to each treatment condition. Probability values of p≤0.05 were accepted as significant. Additionally, the number of micronuclei per binucleate cell were obtained and recorded.

- TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS
- Solubility: A solubility test was performed under Covance Study Number 8350026 and DMF was selected as the vehicle for this assay.
The top dose tested for the test article was based on OECD criteria, 10 mM or 2 mg/mL (2 μL/mL for liquid test materils), which ever was the lowest. The molecular weight of the test material was 250.38 g/mol, so 2 mg/mL, was lower than the 10 mM (2503.8 μg/mL).
Due to the limited solubility of the test article in the culture media, top dose used for this test article in the test system was 1000 μg/mL.
- Precipitation and time of the determination:
Dose Range-finding Assay: At the time of treatment, precipitate was observed at ≥343 μg/mL in the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9, and in the 3 hour treatments with and without S9. At the end of treatment (or at wash), precipitate was observed at ≥700 μg/mL in the 3 hour treatments with and without S9. At the time of harvest, precipitate was observed at ≥490 μg/mL in the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9 and at ≥343 μg/mL in the 3 hour treatments with and without S9.
Main Assay: No precipitate or hemolysis was observed at any tested concentration at the time of treatment or at harvest.
- Definition of acceptable cells for analysis: In the main assay, 51% cytotoxicity was observed at 93.8 μg/mL. This concentration along with two lower concentrations, 35.0 and 68.4 μg/mL, producing 11 and 35% cytotoxicity, respectively, were selected for MN evaluation.
RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
Hemolysis was observed at ≥490 μg/mL at the end of the treatment in the 3 hour treatment and at the time of harvest in the approximate 24 hour treatment, without S9. Slides were prepared and scored to calculate CBPI for the measurement of cytotoxicity. In the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9, 66% cytotoxicity was observed at 118 μg/mL. In the 3 hour treatment without S9, 44% cytotoxicity was observed at 168 μg/mL. The next higher concentration, 240 μg/mL, was excessively cytotoxic and produced 75% cytotoxicity. In the 3 hour treatment with S9, 65% cytotoxicity was observed at 240 μg/mL. Based on the cytotoxicity data, concentrations were selected for the micronucleus assay (B1).
STUDY RESULTS
In the assay without metabolic activation with a 3 hour treatment, CBPI data are presented in Table 8.7. Dose levels of 129, 143, and 177 μg/mL were analyzed for MNBN (Table 8.8). Statistical Analysis data are presented in Table 8.9.
No precipitate or hemolysis was observed at any tested concentration at the time of treatment, end of treatment, or at harvest. In this test condition, 58% cytotoxicity was observed at 177 μg/mL. This concentration along with two lower concentrations, 129 and 143 μg/mL, producing 9 and 24% cytotoxicity, respectively, were selected for MN evaluation.
In the assay with metabolic activation with a 3 hour treatment, CBPI data are presented in Table 8.10. Dose levels of 177, 219, and 243 μg/mL were analyzed for MNBN (Table 8.11). Statistical Analysis data are presented in Table 8.12.
No precipitate or hemolysis was observed at any tested concentration at the time of treatment, end of treatment, or at harvest. In this test condition, 61% cytotoxicity was observed at 243 μg/mL. This concentration along with two lower concentrations, 177 and 219 μg/mL, producing 19 and 39% cytotoxicity, respectively, were selected for MN evaluation.
A statistically significant increase in the MNBN frequency was observed at 35.0 μg/mL in the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9. However, the MNBN frequency (0.60%) observed at this concentration was within the vehicle historical control range (0.10 to 1.10%) for the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9 in the male donors. Therefore, the statistically significant increase observed at this concentration was considered as biologically non-relevant. No statistically significant increase in the MNBN frequencies was observed in the 3 hour treatments with or without S9.
DATA ACCEPTABILITY AND VALIDITY
All positive and vehicle control MNBN frequencies were within acceptable ranges, except the 3 hour treatments with S9 (1.80%) and without S9 (3.60%), where the positive controls MNBN frequencies which were below the historical control ranges for with S9 (2.07 to 7.55%) and without S9 (8.55 to 16.78%) test conditions in the male donors. However, as the MNBN frequency of the positive control in these two test conditions were statistically significantly higher compared to the concurrent vehicle control, this was accepted as valid. All acceptance criteria were met and the study was accepted as valid
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The test article was considered negative for inducing micronuclei in the binucleated cells of human peripheral blood lymphocytes from a male donor when evaluated up to the limit of cytotoxicity in the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9 and 3 hour treatments with and without S9.
- Executive summary:
An in vitro micronucleus test was performed according to OECD Guideline 487 and in compliance with GLP.
The objective of the study was to evaluate the clastogenic and aneugenic potential of the test article by its effects on the frequency of micronuclei in cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes treated with and without rat liver metabolizing system (S9). The test article was formulated in dimethyl formamide (DMF). Initially a dose range-finding (DRF) assay was performed in single cultures to select doses for the micronucleus (MN) assay where duplicate cultures were used. Different concentrations of the test article were used with a dosing volume of 1% (v/v). Vehicle and positive controls were used concurrently. Due to the limited solubility of the test article in the culture media, top dose used for in the test system was 1000 μg/mL.
In the DRF assay, human peripheral blood lymphocytes (HPBL) were treated with the test item at concentrations ranging from 19.8 to 1000 μg/mL for 3 hours with and without S9 and approximately 24 hours without S9. Precipitate was observed at the end of treatment (or at wash) at ≥700 μg/mL in the 3 hour treatments with and without S9, and at ≥490 μg/mL in the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9. Slides were scored to calculate the cytokinesis block proliferation index (CBPI) for the measurement of cytotoxicity.
Based on the DRF results, Sclareolide was evaluated in the micronucleus assay (MN) in the human peripheral blood lymphocytes (HPBL) from a male donor at concentrations ranging from 35.0 to 143 μg/mL, in the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9, and from 84.4 to 243 μg/mL in the 3 hour treatments without S9. The test article was also evaluated at concentrations ranging from 104 to 300 μg/mL in the 3 hour treatment with S9. No precipitate was observed at the end of the treatment at any tested concentration in any treatment condition with or without S9. In the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9, 51% cytotoxicity was observed at 93.8 μg/mL. This concentration along with two lower concentrations, 35.0 and 68.4 μg/mL, producing 11 and 35% cytotoxicity, respectively, were selected for MN evaluation. In the 3 hour treatment without S9, 58% cytotoxicity was observed at 177 μg/mL. This concentration along with two lower concentrations, 129 and 143 μg/mL, producing 9 and 24% cytotoxicity, respectively, were selected for MN scoring. In the 3 hour treatment with S9, 61% cytotoxicity was observed at 243 μg/mL. This concentration along with two lower concentrations, 177
and 219 μg/mL, producing 19 and 39% cytotoxicity, respectively, were selected for MN evaluation.
A statistically significant increase in the frequency of micronucleated binucleated (MNBN) cells was observed at 35.0 μg/mL in the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9. However, the MNBN frequency (0.60%) observed at this concentration was within the vehicle historical control range (0.10 to 1.10%) for this test condition in the male donors. Therefore, the statistically significant increase was considered as biologically non-relevant. No statistically significant increase in the MNBN frequencies was observed in the 3 hour treatments with or without S9. The MNBN frequencies of the
vehicle and the positive controls fell within the acceptable range. All acceptance criteria were met and the study was accepted as valid.
All vehicle (acetone) controls had frequencies of cells with micronuclei within the range expected for normal human lymphocytes.
The positive control items induced statistically significant increases in the frequency of cells with micronuclei. Thus, the sensitivity of the assay and the efficacy of the S9-mix were validated.
The test item was toxic to human lymphocytes but did not induce any statistically significant increases in the frequency of cells with micronuclei, using a dose range that included a dose level that induced approximately 50% reduction in CBPI.
The test article was considered negative for inducing micronuclei in the binucleated cells of human peripheral blood lymphocytes from a male donor when evaluated up to the limit of cytotoxicity in the approximate 24 hour treatment without S9 and 3 hour treatments with and without S9.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for in vitro micronucleus study.
