Reduction of G SH by exposure of the cells to buthionines ulf ox im in e, a s pe ci fi c i nh ib ito r o f -y -g lu tamylc ys te in e s yn th e-tase, an enzyme required for GSH synthesis, decreases theresistan ce to c isp latin (3 1) an d rev erses th e cro ss-resistan ce tom elphalan (31) and irradiation (21). T he exact m echanism bywhich GSH modulates cisplatin cytotoxicity is unknown.Amon g the p ossibilitie s u nd er in vestigatio n in o ur lab orato ryare: (a) G SH m ay alter the transport of cisplatin; (b) G SH m ayin activa te cisp latin b y form in g an in activ e G SH -cisp latin c onjugate in the cytosol of resistant cells, although w e have previo usly s hown th at th ere is n o sig nific an t d iffe re nc e in th e s pe cificactivities of GSH S-transferase, GSH peroxidase, or GSHred uc ase(31 ); (c) G SH m ay p ro tect critical sites o n DNA an ddecrease form ation of the intrust rand A ^-bidentate adduct onad jacen t deo xy guan osines; (d) G SH m ay fun ctio n in th e re pairof D NA dam age.The finding that induced resistance to cisplatin is accompanied by cross-resistance to other agents which cause DNAdam age, i.e., m elphalan and irradiation, suggests that a comm on repair m echanism m ay be responsible at least in part forprim ary resistance to cisplatin and for the cross-resistance tom elp halan an d irrad iation see n in 2 78 0"'.
