Mitogen response and cell cycle kinetics of Swiss 3T3 cells in defined medium: differences from human fibroblasts and effects of cell density 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The mitogen requirement and proliferative response of Swiss 3T3 cells in serum-free, chemically defined culture medium were compared with those of early-passage human diploid fibroblasts. The effects of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), insulin, transferrin, and dexamethasone on cell-cycle parameters were measured using 5'-bromo-deoxyuridine-Hoechst flow cytometry. Swiss 3T3 cells differ from human fibroblasts in several ways: (1) Swiss 3T3 cells showed a much higher dependence on PDGF than human fibroblasts; the growth of the latter, but not of the former, could be stimulated by the combination of EGF, insulin, and dexamethasone to the full extent of that when PDGF was present; (2) in the absence of PDGF, insulin was an absolute requirement for Swiss 3T3 cells to initiate DNA synthesis, while a substantial proportion of human fibroblasts could enter DNA synthesis without exogenous insulin or IGF-I; and (3) in the absence of PDGF, increasing insulin concentration increased the cycling fraction of Swiss 3T3 cells without an appreciable effect on the rate of cell exit from G0/G1, while under similar culture conditions, insulin showed its major effect on regulation of the G1 exit rate of human fibroblasts, without much effect on the cycling fraction. In addition, the proliferative response of high-density versus low-density, arrested Swiss 3T3 cells showed that the interaction of mitogens varied with cell density. At high cell density, the PDGF requirement was consistent with the "competence/progression" cell-cycle model. This growth response was not seen, however, when cells were plated at low density. 相似文献

The effects of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), epidermal growth factor (EGF), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and insulin on DNA synthesis were studied in murine fibroblasts transfected with an expression vector containing human insulin receptor cDNA (NIH 3T3/HIR) and the parental NIH 3T3 cells. In NIH 3T3/HIR cells, individual growth factors in serum-free medium stimulated DNA synthesis with the following relative efficacies: insulin greater than or equal to 10% fetal calf serum greater than PDGF greater than IGF-1 much greater than EGF. In comparison, the relative efficacies of these factors in stimulating DNA synthesis by NIH 3T3 cells were 10% fetal calf serum greater than PDGF greater than EGF much greater than IGF-1 = insulin. In NIH 3T3/HIR cells, EGF was synergistic with 1-10 ng/ml insulin but not with 100 ng/ml insulin or more. Synergy of PDGF or IGF-1 with insulin was not detected. In the parental NIH 3T3 cells, insulin and IGF-1 were found to be synergistic with EGF (1 ng/ml), PDGF (100 ng/ml), and PDGF plus EGF. In NIH 3T3/HIR cells, the lack of interaction of insulin with other growth factors was also observed when the percentage of cells synthesizing DNA was examined. Despite insulin's inducing only 60% of NIH 3T3/HIR cells to incorporate thymidine, addition of PDGF, EGF, or PDGF plus EGF had no further effect. In contrast, combinations of growth factors resulted in 95% of the parental NIH 3T3 cells synthesizing DNA. The independence of insulin-stimulated DNA synthesis from other mitogens in the NIH 3T3/HIR cells is atypical for progression factor-stimulated DNA synthesis and is thought to be partly the result of insulin receptor expression in an inappropriate context or quantity. 相似文献

Cell cycle dependent growth factor regulation of gene expression 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The expression of the proto-oncogenes c-fos and c-myc is a rapid response of G0-arrested fibroblasts to serum and peptide growth factors; however, the role of the c-fos and c-myc gene products in subsequent cell cycle transit is not understood. We examined the expression of c-fos and c-myc mRNA in Balb/c 3T3 murine fibroblasts in response to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and platelet-poor plasma, using arrest points associated with density dependent growth inhibition or metabolic inhibition to synchronize cells in S phase of the cell cycle. The expression of c-fos and c-myc mRNA in Balb/c 3T3 cells was differentially regulated with respect to growth factor dependence and cell cycle dependence. c-fos expression was induced in the presence of PDGF and was unaffected by plasma. The induction of c-fos expression in response to PDGF was cell cycle independent, occurring in cells transiting S phase and G2 as well as in G0 arrest. In contrast, c-myc expression was both growth factor and cell cycle dependent. In G0 arrested cells, c-myc expression was PDGF-dependent and plasma-independent, and PDGF was required for maintenance of elevated c-myc levels during G1 transit. In cells transiting S phase, c-myc mRNA was induced in response to PDGF, but was also plasma-dependent in S phase cells that had been "primed" by exposure to PDGF during S phase. 相似文献

In medium supplemented with defibrinogenated, platelet-poor human plasma and a low molecular weight growth factor derived from human platelets (PDGF), Swiss 3T3 cells proliferate exponentially with the same cell cycle kinetics as cells cultured in medium supplemented with commercial calf serum. Removal of PDGF from the culture medium arrests proliferating cells in a stable, reversible G0/G1 quiescent state. This arrested state is similar to the known quiescent state induced by deprivation of calf serum in cell exit kinetics and cytoplasmic proteins synthesized. Cells are sensitive to PDGF deprivation only at the beginning of G1. Reduction of the plasma concentration in the culture medium also arrests cells in G1. The resulting arrested population is unstable and exhibits progressive cell death. Reduced levels of plasma block cellular transit through the cell cycle at a median time of approx. 2.1 h following mitosis, approx. 3.3 h prior to S phase initiation. In addition to being required by cycling cells, plasma associated factors are required to maintain G1 cells blocked by PDGF deprivation in a stable quiescent state. Establishment of a stable, viable G0/G1 growth-arrested state, therefore, apparently involves two distinct processes: arrest of cellular proliferation in G1 and stabilization of the arrested cells in a viable quiescent state. Together with previously reported findings on serum and isoleucine starvation, these results provide a temporal map of growth control points in the G1 phase. 相似文献

Control of myogenesis in the mouse myogenic C2 cell line by medium composition and by insulin: Characterization of permissive and inducible C2 myoblasts 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
Christian Pinset Didier Montarras Janet Chenevert Adrian Minty Paul Barton Christine Laurent Francois Gros 《Differentiation; research in biological diversity》1988,38(1):28-34
Using subcloning and manipulations of culture conditions we have isolated from the mouse myogenic cell line C2 a variant cell line that we named inducible. Unlike the progenitor cells that are referred to as permissive, inducible myoblasts differentiate poorly in Dulbecco modified Eagle medium plus fetal calf serum (FCS) and require the presence of insulin at a high concentration (1.6 10(-6) M) or insulin-like growth factor I (IGFI) at a lower concentration (2.5 10(-8) M) to differentiate. Permissive and inducible myoblasts fail to differentiate when grown in MCDB202 medium plus 20% FCS, even after a prolonged arrest in G1 phase. This shows that an arrest in G1 is in itself insufficient to trigger terminal differentiation. Both cell types also exhibit distinct patterns of accumulation of muscle mRNAs corresponding to sarcomeric actins and myosin light chain MLC1A. The possibility that these two cell lines might represent two different stages of the progression of myoblasts toward terminal differentiation is discussed. 相似文献

alpha-Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), a highly selective inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), induced terminal differentiation of F9 mouse embryonal carcinoma cells in culture. Differentiation was assessed using morphological criteria and the level of plasminogen activator activity. The observed phenotypic changes and the fact that the cells did not synthesize alpha-fetoprotein, indicate that they were parietal endoderm cells. The putrescine, spermidine and spermine content of untreated control cells increased during exponential growth and then decreased gradually with continued time in culture. The increases in putrescine and spermidine contents were prevented by DFMO treatment. In fact, the putrescine and spermidine content decreased below the limits of detection after only one day of treatment. The addition of putrescine to the culture medium at any time within 4 days of DFMO treatment, prevented the DFMO-induced differentiation, suggesting that the effects observed were indeed caused by polyamine depletion. The phenotypic changes induced by DFMO were similar to those induced by retinoic acid, a very potent inducer of embryonal carcinoma differentiation. Although retinoic acid can inhibit ODC activity and putrescine accumulation, it is unlikely that this mechanism of action is responsible for retinoic acid-induced F9 cell differentiation, inasmuch as putrescine addition did not prevent the expression of the differentiated phenotype. Undifferentiated F9 embryonal carcinoma cells exhibited a very short G1 phase, and in this respect they are similar to the cells of the preimplantation mouse embryo. In control (exponentially growing) cultures a majority of the F9 cells were in the S phase, but in DFMO-treated cultures they accumulated in the G1 phase and showed no further proliferative potential.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We have screened a cDNA library for gene sequences that are regulated by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in BALB/c-3T3 cells. Of 8000 clones screened, less than 14 independent PDGF-inducible sequences were found. Two of these (KC and JE) were studied in detail. By hybrid-selection and translation the KC and JE mRNAs encode 10,000 and 19,000 dalton polypeptides, respectively. In the absence of PDGF, the JE and KC sequences correspond to low abundance mRNAs. One hour after addition of PDGF their abundance level can be increased 10- to 20-fold. Within 4 hr, a 60-fold induction of JE can be attained. Nanogram per ml quantities of pure PDGF regulate these sequences whereas μg/ml quantities of chemically unrelated mitogens (EGF, insulin, or platelet-poor plasma) have either a weak or an undetectable effect. Inhibitors of protein synthesis block the progression of quiescent 3T3 cells through G1 into S phase; however these drugs do not block the induction of KC and JE by PDGF. This result indicates that these sequences correspond to “early genes” which are not induced as a consequence of cell growth, but rather are directly regulated by PDGF. 相似文献

Transforming growth factor alpha (TGF alpha) induction of C-FOS and C-MYC expression in C3H 10T1/2 cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We have investigated the effects of transforming growth factor alpha (TGF alpha) in C3H10T1/2 cells, on S phase entry and early gene activation events associated with cell cycle progression. We find that EGF and TGF alpha, which both utilize the EGF receptor for signal generation, are able to stimulate DNA synthesis in these cells with nearly superimposable kinetics; however, the stimulation by TGF alpha was slightly greater at nearly all time points assayed. This report is the first showing that TGF alpha, like EGF, vigorously induces c-myc and c-fos gene expression in these cells. A significant stimulation of c-myc and c-fos mRNA levels is observed with both TGF alpha and EGF; c-myc mRNA levels show an 8-fold induction with both mitogens, while c-fos inductions were on the order of 12 to 14-fold at maximum. However, the induction of c-myc mRNA by TGF alpha has slower kinetics than by EGF. 相似文献

Effect of ouabain on growth regulation by serum components in Balb/c-3T3 cells: inhibition of entry into S phase by decreased protein synthesis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The effect of inhibition of the cell membrane Na+-K+ pump on the Balb/c-3T3 cell growth cycle was studied. Inhibition of the Na+-K+ pump resulted in a dose-dependent reduction of intracellular K+ concentration ((K+)i). However, inhibition of protein synthesis in Go/G1 and of subsequent entry into S phase occurred only after (K+)i fell below a critical threshold (50-60 mmoles/liter). Thus, when the (K+)i falls below a critical threshold, protein synthesis is inhibited, preventing cells from entering the S phase. The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) induces cells to become "competent" to traverse the cell cycle; the platelet-poor plasma component of serum allows competent cells to progress through G0/G1 and enter S phase. Inhibition of the Na+-K+ pump did not prevent the induction of competence by PDGF, but it did reversibly inhibit plasma-mediated events in early G0/G1. Similarly, cycloheximide inhibited plasma-mediated events but did not prevent PDGF-induced competence. Thus, protein synthesis may not be required for induction of competence; alternatively, the induction of the competent state may occur in these cells after removal of PDGF and protein synthesis inhibitor. Protein synthesis is required for subsequent plasma-mediated events in G0/G1. 相似文献

Contribution of PKC-dependent and -independent processes in temporal ERK regulation by ET-1, PDGF, and EGF in rat myometrial cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Endothelin-1 (ET-1), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulated thymidine incorporation with different efficiency (PDGF >> EGF = ET-1) in rat myometrial cells. They also stimulated ERK activation, which culminated at 5 min and then declined to reach a plateau (at 45 min: EGF > 90%, PDGF = 50%, and ET-1 < 10% of maximum). Inhibition and downregulation of PKC demonstrated that ERK activation at 5 min involved PKC and - for ET-1 and PKC plus another PKC isoform for PDGF. By contrast, the EGF response did not involve PKC. Stimulation of Ras was more important with EGF than with PDGF, with ET-1 being the weakest activator. The simultaneous incubation of the cells with EGF and ET-1 potentiated the ERK activation at 5 min and mimicked the plateau phase obtained with PDGF. Under these conditions thymidine incorporation was comparable to that induced by PDGF. Taken together, our results indicated that the kinetic profile of ERK activation and its impact on cell proliferation can be modulated by the differential involvement of PKC isoforms and the amplitude of Ras activation. uterine smooth muscle; phospholipase C; ETA receptor; thymidine incorporation; Ras 相似文献

Exposure of BALB/c-3T3 cells (clone A31) to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) results in a rapid time- and dose-dependent alteration in the distribution of vinculin and actin. PDGF treatment (6-50 ng/ml) causes vinculin to disappear from adhesion plaques (within 2.5 min after PDGF exposure) and is followed by an accumulation of vinculin in punctate spots in the perinuclear region of the cell. This alteration in vinculin distribution is followed by a disruption of actin-containing stress fibers (within 5 to 10 min after PDGF exposure). Vinculin reappears in adhesion plaques by 60 min after PDGF addition while stress fiber staining is nondetectable at this time. PDGF treatment had no effect on talin, vimentin, or microtubule distribution in BALB/c-3T3 cells; in addition, exposure of cells to 5% platelet-poor plasma (PPP), 0.1% PPP, 30 ng/ml epidermal growth factor (EGF), 30 ng/ml somatomedin C, or 10 microM insulin also had no effect on vinculin or actin distribution. Other competence-inducing factors (fibroblast growth factor, calcium phosphate, and choleragen) and tumor growth factor produced similar alterations in vinculin and actin distribution as did PDGF, though not to the same extent. PDGF treatment of cells for 60 min followed by exposure to EGF (0.1-30 ng/ml for as long as 8 h after PDGF removal), or 5% PPP resulted in the nontransient disappearance of vinculin staining within 10 min after EGF or PPP additions; PDGF followed by 0.1% PPP or 10 microM insulin had no effect. Treatment of cells with low doses of PDGF (3.25 ng/ml), which did not affect vinculin or actin organization in cells, followed by EGF (10 ng/ml), resulted in the disappearance of vinculin staining in adhesion plaques, thus demonstrating the synergistic nature of PDGF and EGF. These data suggest that PDGF-induced competence and stimulation of cell growth in quiescent fibroblasts are associated with specific rapid alterations in the cellular organization of vinculin and actin. 相似文献

Sodium butyrate (6 mM) blocks the resumption of the cell division cycle in serum-deprived chemically transformed Balb/c-3T3 mouse fibroblasts (BP-A31). The inhibition of G1 progression by sodium butyrate is not restricted to a specific mitogenic signaling pathway and is equally effective when tetradecanoyl phorbol acetate (TPA), insulin, or fetal calf serum (FCS) is used as inducer. The inhibitor acts in early as well as late G1 phase as indicated by experiments in which inhibitor was added and withdrawn at different times after restimulation of quiescent cells by FCS. At the gene expression level, sodium butyrate does not affect the inducibility of early cell cycle-related genes (c-myc, c-jun) while blocking the induction of cdc 2 mRNA, a late G1 marker. We conclude that sodium butyrate does not interfere with the growth factor signaling pathways regulating the (early) cell cycle-related gene expression. However, the presence of sodium butyrate early in G1 phase inhibits the cascade of events leading eventually to the expression of late G1-characteristic genes such as cdc2. The antimitogenic activity of sodium butyrate may be related to its interference with an (unknown) process involved in the "mitogenic" cascade. 相似文献

The growth regulation of human diploid fibroblasts by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) (somatomedin C), dexamethasone, and transferrin was investigated in a serum-free, chemically defined culture system. Cell-cycle kinetic parameters were determined using 5'-bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) incorporation and flow cytometric analysis with the DNA-specific dye Hoechst 33258. We found that PDGF and EGF regulate the proportion of cells capable of entering the cell cycle from the quiescent state, with smaller effects upon the rate of cell transition from G1 into S phase. IGF-1, on the other hand, regulates the rate of cell exit from G1 without affecting the cycling fraction. Transferrin and dexamethasone showed less effect upon the cell-cycle kinetics under these culture conditions. The data provide functional evidence that PDGF and EGF regulate similar cell-kinetic parameters in human fibroblast cultures. IGF-I is functionally distinct from both PDGF and EGF in its role of regulating G1 exit rate without affecting the cycling fraction. These observations made by BrdU-Hoechst flow cytometric techniques provide a novel perspective on the regulatory effects exerted by different classes of growth factors, and suggest a mode of interdependence of these mitogens in regulating the net growth rate which could be a feature of growth regulation in vivo. These data also provide a different perspective on the regulation of the growth of fibroblast-like cells than that of the "competence/progression" cell-cycle model. 相似文献

Murine embryonal carcinoma F9 cells can be induced to differentiate by 2-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC). The differentiated phenotype is similar to that of retinoic acid (RA)-treated F9 cells. In contrast to F9 cells the differentiated cells secrete plasminogen activator and express keratin intermediate filaments. Both DFMO and RA reduce ornithine decarboxylase activity, polyamine levels and inhibit cell proliferation of F9 cells. These compounds also reduce ODC, polyamine levels and proliferation of mouse BALB/c 3T6 fibroblasts. RA inhibits the induction of ODC by insulin, serum and to a lesser extent that of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). The action of DFMO and RA can be distinguished by their response to putrescine. The induction of differentiation and the inhibition of cell proliferation by DFMO can be totally abolished upon the addition of putrescine, whereas the actions of RA are not affected at all. These results suggest that the inhibition of ODC and reduction of polyamines are not causal in the induction of differentiation and the inhibition of proliferation by RA. 相似文献

Extensive evidence indicate that platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) play a key role in the stimulation of the 3T3 fibroblast replication: in this connection, PDGF and EGF act as a competence and a progression factor, respectively. We have previously demonstrated that EGF alone leads density-arrested EL2 rat fibroblasts to synthesize DNA and proliferate in serum-free cultures. Here, we have analyzed the role of EGF in the control of EL2 cell proliferation. Our data show a dose-related effect of EGF on DNA synthesis and cell growth, with maximal stimulation for both parameters at 20 ng/ml. On the other hand, autocrine production of PDGF or PDGF-like substances by EL2 cells is seemingly excluded by experiments with anti-PDGF serum or medium conditioned by EL2 fibroblasts. EGF binding studies show that EL2 cells possess high affinity EGF receptors, at a density level 3 to 4-fold higher than other fibroblastic lines. In addition, EL2 cells show a normal down-regulation of EGF receptors, following exposure to EGF, but PDGF, fibroblast growth factor (FGF), transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) and bombesin have not decreased the affinity of EGF receptor for its ligand. Moreover, in EL2 cells, the EGF is able to induce the synthesis of putative intracellular regulatory proteins that govern the PDGF-induced competence in 3T3 cells. Our data indicate that EGF in EL2 cells may act as both a competence and a progression factor, via induction of the mechanisms, regulated in other cell lines by cooperation between different growth factors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Mitogenic response to epidermal growth factor (EGF) modulated by platelet-derived growth factor in cultured fibroblasts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The mitotic effects of epidermal growth factor (EGF) were investigated in two cultured fibroblast lines, BALB/c-3T3 and C3H 10T1/2 cells. EGF (30 ng/ml) added to quiescent 3T3 cells in medium containing either platelet-poor plasma or 10(-5) M insulin caused only minimal increases in the percentage of cells stimulated to initiate DNA synthesis. In contrast, EGF acted synergistically with either insulin or plasma to stimulate DNA synthesis in quiescent cultures of 10T1/2 cells, although the maximum effects of EGF were measured at concentrations several-fold greater than those found in either serum or plasma. In either 3T3 or 10T1/2 cells a transient preexposure to platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) caused over a 10-fold increase in the sensitivity to the mitogenic effects of EGF. It is therefore possible that a primary action of PDGF is to increase the sensitivity of fibroblasts to EGF, independent of whether EGF alone is found to be mitogenic. 相似文献

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is required only during the traverse of early G1 in PDGF stimulated density-arrested BALB/c-3T3 cells 总被引:17,自引:0,他引:17
Density-arrested BALB/c-3T3 cells that had received a transient exposure to PDGF and were then transferred to medium containing only EGF and somatomedin C (Sm-C) began DNA synthesis after the G0/G1 lag. Supraphysiological concentrations of insulin could be employed to replace the Sm-C requirement. This G0/G1 lag phase was bisected by the requirement for the exogenous presence of EGF. Our data indicated that EGF was required during the traverse of only the first half of G0/G1 phase (6 h) and not during the traverse of late G1. Subphysiological serum concentrations of Sm-C were also necessary to be present with EGF for progression through early G0/G1; however, traverse of the final half of G0/G1 and commitment to DNA synthesis required the presence of Sm-C. It was found that physiological concentrations of Sm-C were required for the traverse late G1. The requirement for Sm-C for G0/G1 traverse of BALB/c-3T3 cells as opposed to human fibroblasts or glial cells may be due to a difference in endogenous synthesis of an insulin-like growth factor. Our data are in close agreement with previous reports that EGF is only required for approximately the first 8 h during traverse of the G0/G1 phase. The requirement for EGF to be present for the first 6 h of G0/G1 could result from a continued or repetitious event or by more than one distinct EGF-requiring event. 相似文献
