In vitro reco,~,:et%,fi'om PLD has been observed after a wide variety of treatments, in dividing and win-dividing cells, and in oxic and hypoxic cells. T h e conflicting rcsuhs reported in th,.: J.iterature on the influence of various factors on the recovery process suggest that the ,~vaagnitude of the p h e n o m e n o n is as dependent on the cell line as on the treatment arid pTJst-treatment conditions. Furthermore, the exact target as well as the repair mechanism involved in the recove13" front PLD remains unknown, although m a n y studies have suggested a repair mechanism perhaps enzymatic, acting at the D N A level. Because recova 3, fi'om PLD also occurs in vivo and enhances the tumor rcsistance to treatment, the study of recovery processes and particularly the study of their inhibition are of considerable interest. We will review thctors influencing the recovery phenomenon in vitro and also t'i~.e in vlvo data reported.

Recovery from PLD under suboptimal growth conditions such as depicted m e d i u m (DM) (40, 41, 46, 47, 49, 57-59, 79), serum free m e d i u m (SFM) (40, 46, 78) or balanced salt solution (BSS) (11, 12, 33, 37.-40, 44, 59), and inhibition of recovery by fresh m e d i u m (FM) (40,44, 46~ 47, 49) were widely reported after X-ray treatment (Table 1). Recover 5, is not an "all or n o n e " p h e n o m e n o n because file magnitude of the process was dependent on the radiation dose (40, 59) and on the medium. Plateau phase and exponentially growing C h a n g liver cells (LICH) recovered preferentially in D M (59), which is perhaps related to a factor secreted by L I G H cells into the m e d i u m (58, 59), while plateau phase Chinese hamster ovarian cells (HA-l) showed a lligher recovery in BSS (40) dlan i n SFNI. No recovery was observed i n exPonentially growing HA-! cells held in BSS (40), a n d recovery in irradiated I~louse embryonic fibroblasts (3T3) was higher in D M than in BSS o r . S F M (46). Some recovery data reported for Xirradiated Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (V79) conflicted, indicating that the results varied from laboratory to laboratory (Table I). Surprisingly, D u r a n d et al. Were unable to show a n y recovery in either d i v i d i n g or non,divlding V79 cells p0st-treated with v a r i o u s m e d i a (30), while Piro et al. observed an increase in survival in plateau phas e cultures held in either DM, BSS or FM, although recovery was delayed in cells held in F M (75). F u r t h e r m o r e , Mauro et al. observed recovery in V79 cells exposed t o BSS at 23°C before and after radiation; nO recovery was Found in these cells held in F M before radiafi0n (66). Recovery from ~-ray induced PLD, was similarly observed i n plateau phase C H O (34) and E M T 0 cells(36, 65) held in m e d i a that inhibit cellular proliferation. T h e data reported after high linear energy transfer ( L E T ) r a d i a t i o n (fast neutron and charged particle) conflict (Table 2). I n t h e s e studies, the a u t h o r s compared m o d e l systems in w h i c h recovery From X-ray or y-ray induced~PLD were observed. 1"(1) Depleted (p/~tteau)me(tlumor conditionedmedium is'mediumharvestedfromplateau phase culture.

Because the i m e r a e t i o n of ;'~ct D widl c h r o m a t i n inhibited the repair of X - r a y d a n m g e to a DNA comples (31), the b i n d i n g of Act D to D N A a n d not specific interference with R N A synthesis might be p r e s u m e d to cause the inhibition of recovery from P L D (7), but the r e q u i r e m e n t of R N A synthesis tbr such rccovel T cannot be ruled out (7). l : u r t h e r n m r e , the activity of a n y e n z y m e that repairs r a d i a t i o n lc~ions in nucleic acid m a y be i m p e d e d in a steric r a m m e r by the d r u g - D N A c o m p l e x (!).

However, a d d i t i o n o f e x t r a glucose to the m e d i m n allowed some r e c o v e r y fi'om P L D , indicating that at least p a r t o f the recovery process r e q u i r e d e n e r g y (53). I n h i b i t i o n of recovery after radiation t r e a t m e n t was also r e p o r t e d in cells exposed to extremely anisotonic solutions (Table 7), the efl~:cts of ~daich seemed to d e p e n d o n the sequence of exposure. R a a p h o r s t et al. reported that salt t r e a t m e n t of C H O cells before irradiation did not inhibit r e c o v e r y fi'om either P L D or S L D , whereas salt t r e a t m e n t d u r i n g or after i r r a d i a t i o n did inhibit both types of d a m a g e (77). H o w e v e r , D e t t o r et al. r e p o r t e d an i n h i b i t i o n of recovery fi'om P L D in C H O ceils held in h y p e r t o n i e sotution before, during, a n d after X-irradiation (20). U t s u m i et al. fi:mnd a n i~zibitiort of P I , D in V79 ceils exposed to anisotonic solutions after X - r a y t r e a t m e n t (95). Because of osmotic changes p r o d u c e d by anisotonic t r e a t m e n t , fixation of P L D m i g h t be the result o f a destabitization o f the structural relationship b e t w e e n D N A a n d the n u c l e a r envelop a n d / o r D N A a n d the n u c l e a r protein m a t r i x (95). Osmotic changes m i g h t also prevent a r e p a i r e n z y m e from acting at the D N A level (77). T h e trypsinization p r o c e d u r e used after t r e a t m e n t for both in vitro a n d in vivo systems prior to assay for sm'vival by colony formation as described by P u c k et aL (76), suggests tliat the recovery p h e n o m e n o n m i g h t be an artifact of this procedure. H o w e v e r , studies in w h i c h trypsinization was not necessary i n d i c a t e d trypsinization not to be a n artifact (11, 33, 38, 44, 67, 78, 88, 92). In ff)'O s t u d i e s

Conditions t h a t allow recovery from P L D in vitro are fairly drastic a n d are unlikely to be ever duplicated in vivo. H o w e v e r , several studies h a v e d e m o n s t r a t e d t h a t both ascites a n d solid r o d e n t tumors t r e a t e d in vivo a n d allowed to r e m a i n in situ for several hours after t r e a t m e n t r e c o v e r e d f r o m P L D (see T a b l e 8) a n d S L D (I 1, 22, 63, 84, 86) after a variety of treatments. R e c o v e r y from P L D a f t e r X-irradiation o c c u r r e d in solid t u m o r s a n d in old slow growing ascites tumors (I I, 43, 63) and was f o u n d to be dose d e p e n d e n t (42). T h e s e findings, with the observation t h a t the m a g n i t u d e a n d kinetics o f recovery w e r e similar to those observed in X - i r r a d i a t e d plateau phase ceils in culture, suggest that recove R • o c c u r s p r i m a r i l y in non-proliferating cells a n d p a r t i c u l a r l y in highly radioresistant hypoxic cells (11, 43, 63). T h e recovery process w o u l d a c c e n t u a t e the radioresistance of the tumor.

that different sized E M T 6 tumors recovered from B L M d a m a g e (91); furthermore, they found a much. higher increase in survival (92) t h a n previously described (42). T a k a d e et al. also observed recovery from P L D in Ehrlieh ascites tumor, a system that did not r e q u i r e trypsinizalion before the survival assay, ,,daich ruled out trypsin as an artifact (88). Recently lk,Ioore et aL reported recovery from PL D in a solid rat mammal',/ carcinoma (LMC1) after treatment with C P M (70). Cellular repopulation from the resistant component that recovered fi'om P L D after a dose of 150 mg/kg was delayed lbr 6 or more days; restoration to near pretreatment status was achieved by 10 days, suggesting that a further dose of CPA'I would be more efficacious a t longer than at shorter intelwals (70). Preliminary data has suggested that recovery fi'om BLh,~ (14) an d X-ray (54) induced damage in E M T 8 solid tumors might be inhiMted by adjuvant heat treatment, duplicating in vivo the observations m a d e in vitro (Table 6). T w e n t y m a n et al., however, found that adjuvant heat did not inhibit recovery from B C N U induced PLD i n the same tumor system, although the combined modality was more efficacious than BCNU alone (93).

Conclusion

In summary, recovery from P L D is a n important p h e n o m e n o n that has occurred in m a n y experimental systems, and probably enhances the resistance of m a n y malignant tumor cells to treatment. For e x a m p l e , the radioresistance of h u m a n osteosarcoma might be c a u s e d not by an intrinsic resistance of the cells to X-ray ti'eatment, b u t rather by an efficient recovery from P L D (97). Although a substantial literature on P L D has evolved during the past decade, it is not u n c o m m o n for different authors to report conflicting results for similar experimental conditions in the same system. Because the PL D p h e n o m e n o n m a y be strongly dependent on r a t h e r subtle differences in cell tine and/or culture materials and meflaods, t h e relevance of any particular P L D phenomenon to a tumor's recovery capability in situ becomes suspect. Studies should b e designed not o n l y to observe a P L D effect, but to analyze tlae,causallty of the observation: Appropriate models to study chnlcally relevant PLD should allow differentiation of possible artifacts from true biologica 1 responses. For example, if cell lines a r e used that gn-0w both in vitroand in vivo, then various in vitro, in vivo-in Vitro, a n d hz vivoassays Can be employed] I f recovei~, (o1" the lack of recovery) from P/SD is not indicated by a l l the assays, an d logical explanations are not available, then artifacts seem likely. F r o m the experinaental data reported here; w e can conclude: (1) T h e relevance of an in vitro model to radiation t h e r a p y in vivo becomes obvious when it was showh that recovery comparable in m a g n i t u d e and[kinetics to that found in vitro occurred a!so in vivo for experimental tumors grown in both ascitiC and solid forms. Therefore, recovery from radiation-induced PLD is certainly a factor to b e considered in treating h u m a n tumors; (2) The relevance of in Vitro models to in vivochemotherapy is less Obvious because circulating d r u g metabolites m a y interfere~ with the recovery process in vivo. Furthermore, tlae drug levels used i n experimental models in vivo and in bitro are generally well a bove those likely used clinically a n d : m a y influence the recovery process.
