Interest in fluorescent inhibitors of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR*) has grown over the decade since the original report [l] of the synthesis of MTX-F from methotrexate (MTX), fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC), and 1, 5-pentanediamine. It was shown 12.31 that MTX-F could serve as an intrace~ ular marker. f~ r* D~, and this led to impressive uses of the compound in studies of DHFR overproduction in MTX-resistant cells by flow cytometry 14-81. A compound of related but simpler structure, PI’430 (Fig: 1), was synthesized in our laboratory from FITC and the lvsine analoeue of MTX 19.101. other fluorescent DHFk ligands w&e synthesized mdepkndently by reaction of the lysine and ornithine analogues of MTX with dansyl chloride [H-14]. Flow cytometric studies have been performed with PT430 as the fluorescent marker [9, 10, 15, 16], but have not been reported for the dansyl derivatives. In this paper, we present an improved synthesis of PT430 and describe flow cytometric measurements of its uptake by MTX-sensitive human leukemic lymphoblasts (CEM cells)[17] and a resistant subline (CEM/MTX) with normal DHFR levels but a marked defect in MTX transport [181. The influence of MTX on PT430 uptake by these cells is also compared. Our results demonstrate that cells with a defect in their transport mechanism for MTX can be distinguished from otherwise normal celle by flow cytometric analysis following incubation with PT430.* Abbre~ ations: DHFR,~ hydrofolate reductase (EC 1.5. 1.3); MTX, methotrexate, 4-amino&deoxy-NiO-methylpteroyl+ glutamic acid; MTX-F, fluorescein-diaminopentane-methotrexate; PT430, N#-(4-amino-4-deoxy-~ 0-methylpteroyl)-Ne-(4’-fluore~ ceinthiocarbamyl)-r_-lysine; FITC, fluorescein isothiocyanate; DEAE-cellulose, iV, N-diethylaminoethylcellulose; FBS, fetal bovine serum; DME, Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium; and PBS, phosphate-buffered saline.
