The mutagenicity of azaserine was determined in a pancreatic acinar cell-mediated mutagenesis assay using V79 cells as the responder cell line. The mutation frequency of V79 cells was increased in direct culture with azaserine as well as in coculture with rat and hamster pancreatic acinar cells. Although slightly higher mutation frequencies were seen with coculture, the mutation frequency induced by azaserine in coculture was not significantly enhanced over that observed in direct culture. Thus, azaserine cannot be used as a positive control to monitor the level of acinar cell metabolism in such cell-mediated mutagenesis assays. Statistical analysis suggested that hamster acinar cell cocultures were more effective at increasing the mutation frequency of azaserine as compared to rat acinar cell cocultures. Hamster acinar cell cocultures, but not rat acinar cell cocultures, increased the mutagenicity of azaserine in a dose-response fashion. These results suggest that azaserine may be a pancreatic carcinogen for the hamster as well as the rat.
