CCRF-CEM cells were treated with nucleoside analogs at various concentrations and simultaneously incubated with 1.0 μmol/L [3H]BrdUrd (0.02 μCi/mL), [3H]dThd (0.2 μCi/mL), or [3H]dThd (0.2 μCi/mL) combined with unlabeled 1.0 μmol/L BrdUrd for 60 minutes. The results are triplicate determinations. Radioactivity was incorporated into DNA in control cells not treated with nucleotide analogs as follows: [3H]BrdUrd, 3,355 ± 155 dpm/106 cells; [3H]dThd, 202,008 ± 22,304 dpm/106; [3H]dThd combined with nonradioactive BrdUrd (1.0 μmol/L), 16,619 ± 789 dpm/106 cells.
