Genotoxicity of Novel Pyrazolo[4,3-e]tetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazine Sulfonamides in Normal and Cancer Cells In Vitro.

ABSTRACT: Pyrazolo[4,3-e]tetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazine sulfonamides constitute a novel group of heterocyclic compounds with broad biological activities including anticancer properties. The compounds investigated in this study (MM134, -6, -7, and 9) were found to have antiproliferative activity against BxPC-3 and PC-3 cancer cell lines in micromolar concentrations (IC₅₀ 0.11-0.33 µM). Here, we studied the genotoxic potential of the tested compounds with alkaline and neutral comet assays, accompanied by immunocytochemical detection of phosphorylated γH2AX. We found that pyrazolo[4,3-e]tetrazolo[1,5-b][1,2,4]triazine sulfonamides induce significant levels of DNA damage in BxPC-3 and PC-3 cells without causing genotoxic effects in norm
