Increased frequency of 6-thioguanine-resistant peripheral blood lymphocytes in Werner syndrome patients.

Abstract

The frequency of spontaneous 6-thioguanine (TG)-resistant peripheral blood lymphocytes in five unrelated Werner syndrome (WS) patients was determined using an autoradiographic labeling assay. The average frequency of TG-resistant lymphocytes was eightfold higher in WS patients than in sex- and age-matched normal control donors. This finding and previous identification of increased spontaneous chromosomal rearrangements and deletions in WS cells or cell lines suggest that WS is a human genomic instability or mutator syndrome.
