Abstract Some cytotoxic purinyl-6-derivatives of biogenic amines and amino acids as well as the purinyl-6-derivatives of xenobiotic primary and tertiary amines can serve as substrates for xanthine oxidase. This enzymatic oxidation leads to biologically inactive 2,8-dioxy-purinyl-derivatives. The catabolism of these hydroxylated purinyl-derivatives formed by xanthine oxidase can be effected by peroxidaseJhydrogenperoxide and by catalase/alkylhydrogenperoxide. The relation between substrate specificity for xanthine oxidase and cytotoxic activity will be discussed.

Abstract 14 C-labelled purinyl-6-histamine is catabolized in vivo in the same way as in vitro . The main metabolites are 2,8-dihydroxy-purinyl-derivatives, carbon-dioxide and a product in which the imidazole ring of the purine ring system is opened. The speed of catabolism, the incorporation of produced carbon-dioxide into adenine and guanine, and the inhibition of the catabolism by allo-purinol has been measured.

Abstract Purinyl-6-histamine, which is selectively cytotoxic to tumour cells in tissue culture, does not inhibit the incorporation of precursors of macromolecular syntheses into acid insoluble material of ascites tumour cells in vitro , but it is bound to RNA within cells and to isolated RNA in vitro , as demonstrated by sedimentation studies, Sephadex G50 chromatography, polyacrylamide gel eclectrophoresis and Millipore filtration. The intrinsic binding constant for the binding to isolated RNA is in the order of 10 3 × M −1 (0.1 M NaCl). There is some evidence (P ≦ 0.1) that purinyl-6-histamine has a higher affinity in ascites tumour RNA and yeast sRNA than to liver RNA.
