- Molecular Weight: 119.2
- Manufacture Date: not applicable
- Recertification Date: 14 October 2012
- Recommended Storage Condition: ambient (+18 to +36 ºC) - Target gene:
- This mammalian cell mutation assay system detects point mutations involving base substitutions, deletions, frameshifts and rearrangements within the locus. The enzyme hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (hprt) catalyses phosphorylation of purines in one of the purine salvage pathways. The selective agent used in this assay, 6-Thioguanine (6-TG), is also a substrate for this enzyme and cells that retain the functional hprt enzyme are susceptible to the cytotoxic effects of 6-TG. Forward mutations that result in the loss of the functional hprt gene render cells resistant to 6-TG. These mutant cells can be quantitated after an expression period by cloning in culture medium supplemented with 6-TG, the selective agent.

- Chinese hamster Ovary (CHO)
- Details on mammalian cell type (if applicable):
- Chinese Hamster (Cricetulus griseus) ovary cell line CHO-K1, (ATCC CCL-61, Lot 4765275) with a model chromosome number 20 and a population doubling time of 10 to 14 hours was used. Batch No. 2 of this CHO-K1 cell line was tested for the absence of mycoplasma contamination at Mycoplasma Laboratory, Statens Serum Institut, Denmark and certified free of mycoplasma contamination on July 8, 2010. This cell line has been demonstrated to be sensitive to the mutagenic activity of a variety of chemicals. Cells were grown in tissue culture flasks at 37 ± 1 ⁰C in a carbon dioxide incubator (5 ± 0.2 % carbon dioxide in air).

- Conclusions:
- The results of the forward gene mutation assay at the hprt locus with XU-12399.00 (AEPD) indicate that under the conditions of this study, the test article was non-mutagenic when evaluated in the presence or absence of an externally supplied metabolic activation (S9) system.
- Executive summary:
The genotoxic potential of the test article XU-12399.00 to induce gene mutation in mammalian cells was evaluated using Chinese Hamster ovary (CHO) cells. The study consisted of a preliminary toxicity test, an initial gene mutation assay and a confirmatory gene mutation assay. Each of these mutation assays comprised of two independent experiments, one each in the presence and absence of metabolic activation system (S-9 fraction prepared from Aroclor 1254 induced rat liver). XU-12399.00 formed a solution in sterile distilled water (SDW) at 500 mg/mL and was found to be stable in water at concentrations of 15 and 50000 μg/mL for 24 hours. In a preliminary cytotoxicity test XU-12399.00 did not cause a significant cell growth inhibition as evaluated by Relative Cloning Efficiency (RCE) up to the highest tested concentration of 1192 μg/mL (equivalent to 10 mM) in the presence as well as in the absence of metabolic activation. The test article did not precipitate in the treatment medium up to 1192 μg/mL, and did not cause any appreciable change in the osmolarity of the test solutions at the end of 4-hour exposure to treatment either in the presence or in the absence of metabolic activation. However, the test article altered the pH of the test solutions at and above 298 μg/mL in the presence of metabolic activation and at and above 149 μg/mL in the absence of metabolic activation, therefore; the pH of the test solutions of these concentrations were adjusted to neutrality before exposure to the cells. In the initial gene mutation assay, CHO cells were exposed to the test article in duplicate at concentrations of 12, 38, 119, 377, and 1192 μg/mL of the medium for 4 hours in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. In the confirmatory gene mutation assay, CHO cells were exposed to the test article in duplicate at concentrations of 15, 44, 132, 397 and 1192 μg/mL of the medium for 4 hours in the presence and absence of metabolic activation.
There was no evidence of induction of gene mutations in any of the test material treated cultures either in the presence or absence of metabolic activation. In each of these experiments, the respective positive controls produced a statistically significant increase in the frequencies of mutants, under identical conditions and concurrent solvent control cultures values were within laboratory historical controls. The results of the forward gene mutation assay at the hprt locus with XU-12399.00 indicate that under the conditions of this study, the test article was non-mutagenic when evaluated in the presence or absence of an externally supplied metabolic activation (S9) system.

Additional information
The in vitro genetic toxicity of 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol (AMPD) was investigated in a bacterial reverse mutation assay (Ames test) according to OECD 471 (Enninga, 1988). The plate incorporation method was conducted with S. typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100 at concentrations up to 5000 µg/plate. AMPD did not induce mutations in the S. typhimurium strains in the presence and in the absence of a metabolic activation system. The positive and negative controls included in the experiment showed the expected results. No cytotoxic effects were observed in the concentrations tested with and without metabolic activation. However, only four test strains were used. According to OECD 471, at least five strains of bacteria should be included in the testing. It is known that the four S. typhimurium strains (TA1535, TA1537, TA98, TA100) tested have not the potential to detect certain types of mutagens, such as cross-linking agents or oxidising mutagens. In order to detect such mutagens it is demanded to include S. typhimurium TA102 or to add a DNA repair-proficient strain of E.coli (e.g. E.coli WP2 uvrA or E.coli WP2 uvrA (pKM101)). Therefore, only basic data given and further reliable data are required. However, there are no further data available on the genotoxicity potential of AMPD. Reliable data exist only for another member of the chemical category. Therefore, read-across was conducted based on a category approach.
Within the chemical category AMPD belongs to, data are available for 2-amino-2-ethyl-1,3-propanediol (AEPD; CAS 115-70-8).The in vitro genetic toxicity of AEPD was investigated in a bacterial reverse mutation assay (Ames test) according to OECD 471 (Mochizuki, 2004). The preincubation method was conducted with S. typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and E. coli WP2 uvrA at concentrations up to 5000 µg/plate. AEPD did not induce mutations in any of the S. typhimurium strains or in E. coli WP2 uvrA in the presence or in the absence of a metabolic activation system.No cytotoxic effects were observed in the concentrations tested with and without metabolic activation.The positive controls were valid.
According to OECD 473, the clastogenic potential of AEPD to induce chromosomal aberrations was tested in cultured Chinese hamster lung (CHL) cells (Sono, 2004). CHL cells were exposed to AEPD at concentrations up to 1200 µg/mL both with and without metabolic activation. No increase in chromosomal aberrations was observed in the experiments with short-term treatment (6 h) in presence or absence of metabolic activation. The test substance was not cytotoxic in the tested concentration range both with and without metabolic activation. The positive controls showed the expected results. Because of the negative results of the short-term treatment, an additional testing without activation was done with continuous treatment (24 and 48 h). After continuous treatment, AEPD did also not induce chromosomal aberrations in CHL cells.
AEPD was also tested for its mutagenic potential in another in vitro mammalian cell mutation assay (HGPRT) in CHO cells according to OECD 476. Both in the presence and in the absence of a metabolic activation system, no increases in mutant frequency were observed in any of the experiments. The positive controls induced highly significant increases in mutant frequency. No cytotoxic effects were observed for the concentrations tested with and without metabolic activation.
