Fluorescent light (FL) illumination of RBCF-1 cells, derived from a goldfish, prior to 254 nm UV-irradiation enhanced their ability to photorepair. The cells were illuminated with FL for 1 h (29 W/M2) and incubated for 8 h in the dark before being irradiated with 10 J/m2 UV. The surviving fraction of FL-treated cells after UV-irradiation rose about 7-fold (from 3 to 20%) by 20 min photorepair treatment with the same FL source, whereas 4-fold (from 1.6 to 6%) in the FL non-treated cells. Flow cytometric analysis showed that FL treatment did not affect the distribution of cell cycle phase at the time of UV-irradiation (8 h after FL treatment). Pyrimidine dimers induced by UV were measured by the use of UV endonuclease of Micrococcus luteus and alkaline agarose gel electrophoresis. Initial yields of dimers after exposure to 10 J/m2 UV were almost the same (about 0.11 dimer/kb) between FL treated and non-treated cells. But after 20 min photorepair treatment, about 70% of dimers were removed in the FL treated samples, while less than 20% were removed in the non FL-treated ones.
