Effect of lupane on topoisomerases I and II activity. Electrophoresis in 1 % agarose gel to assess the activity of TOPO I (a): nuclear extracts of PBMCs and supercoiled DNA (TopoGen) (control), lupane (6; 1.5 or 0.7 μg/mL plus nuclear extract of PBMCs and supercoiled DNA; markers (relaxed and supercoiled DNA). (Representatives of 2n). Electrophoresis in 1 % agarose gel with ethidium bromide to assess the activity of TOPO II. b: nuclear extract of PBMCs and kDNA (TopoGen) (control), lupane (6; 1.5 or 0.7 μg/mL plus nuclear extract of PBMCs plus kDNA, nuclear extract of PBMCs plus kDNA plus etoposide (inhibitor); markers (linear and decatenated kDNA). (Representatives of 2n)
