If neoplastic transformation of diploid human cells results from carcinogen-induced mutations, cells deficient in excision repair of UV-induced DNA damage should be significantly more sensitive to transformation by UV light than normal cells. We tested this hypothesis by irradiating fibroblasts from a xeroderma pigmentosum patient (XP7BE, complementation group D) with low doses of Uv light (254 nm) and cells from a normal person with much higher doses and comparing the frequency of transformation to anchorage independence. Both sets of cells exhibited a dose-dependent increase in transformation which corresponded to a dose-dependent decrease in survival. At doses that caused equal cell killing, the frequency of anchorage-independent cells was approximately equal. Colonies of XP7BE and normal cells isolated from agar, propagated, and injected into X-irradiated athymic mice produced fibrosarcomas in 100% of the animals. Normal cells irradiated shortly before the onset of DNA synthesis exhibited a high frequency of anchorage-independent cells; cells irradiated in early G1 showed no increase over background. These results agree with those we observed for UV induction of 6-thioguanine-resistant mutants in these cells and support the hypothesis that anchorage independence results from mutations induced by DNA replication on a damaged template.
