Agents that can arrest cellular proliferation are now providing insights into mechanisms of growth factor action and how this action may be controlled. It is shown here that the macrophage activating agents tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF alpha), interferon-gamma (IFN gamma), and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) can maximally inhibit colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1)-induced, murine bone marrow-derived macrophage (BMM) DNA synthesis even when added 8-12 h after the growth factor, a period coinciding with the G1/S-phase border of the BMM cell cycle. This inhibition was independent of autocrine PGE2 production or increased cAMP levels. In order to compare the mode of action of these agents, their effects on a number of other BMM responses in the absence or presence of CSF-1 were examined. All three agents stimulated BMM protein synthesis; TNF alpha and LPS, but not IFN gamma, stimulated BMM Na+/H+ exchange and Na+,K(+)-ATPase activities, as well as c-fos mRNA levels. IFN gamma did not inhibit the CSF-1-induced Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity. TNF alpha and LPS inhibited both CSF-1-stimulated urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) mRNA levels and u-PA activity in BMM, whereas IFN gamma lowered only the u-PA activity. In contrast, LPS and IFN gamma, but not TNF alpha, inhibited CSF-1-induced BMM c-myc mRNA levels, the lack of effect of TNF alpha dissociating the inhibition of DNA synthesis and decreased c-myc mRNA expression for this cytokine. These results indicate that certain biochemical responses are common to both growth factors and inhibitors of BMM DNA synthesis and that TNF alpha, IFN gamma, and LPS, even though they all have a common action in suppressing DNA synthesis, activate multiple signaling pathways in BMM, only some of which overlap or converge. 相似文献

Colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) stimulates DNA synthesis in quiescent murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM). CSF-1 action has been shown to involve activation of the CSF-1 receptor kinase. The protein kinase C activator, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (PMA), is itself weakly mitogenic and synergises with CSF-1 for stimulation of BMM DNA synthesis suggesting a possible role for protein kinase C in the stimulation of BMM DNA synthesis. In this report we show that several agents which raise intracellular cAMP (8-bromoadenosine 3':5'-cyclic monophosphate, 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, cholera toxin, and prostaglandin E2) reversibly inhibit DNA synthesis in BMM induced by CSF-1, granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor, interleukin-3, and PMA. The suppressive action of cAMP elevation on the proliferative response to CSF-1 can be manifested even late in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Several CSF-1-stimulated earlier responses, viz. protein synthesis, Na+/H+ exchange, Na+,K(+)-ATPase and c-myc-mRNA expression, were not inhibited thus showing a striking difference from some other cellular systems involving growth factor-mediated responses. c-fos-mRNA levels were raised and stabilized by the cAMP-elevating agents, and this modulation was not altered by CSF-1. Thus, the signaling pathways in the macrophages involving tyrosine kinase and protein kinase C activation are associated with increased proliferation while those involving elevation of cAMP (and presumably activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinases) appear to have an inhibitory effect. 相似文献

The regulation of macrophage protein turnover by a colony stimulating factor (CSF-1) 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
CSF-1 is a hemopoietic growth factor that specifically regulates the survival, proliferation, and differentiation of mononuclear phagocytic cells. A homogeneous population of mononuclear phagocytes, bone marrow derived macrophages (BMM), were used to study the regulation of protein turnover by CSF-1. Removal of CSF-1 (approximately 0.4 nM) from exponentially growing BMM cultured in 15% fetal calf serum containing medium decreases the rate of DNA synthesis by more than 100-fold. Addition of CSF-1 to these cells causes them to resume DNA synthesis within 12 h. More immediate effects of CSF-1 were observed on BMM protein metabolism. BMM cultured for 24 h in the absence of CSF-1 reduce their protein synthetic rate by 50-60%. The protein synthetic rate commences to decrease at 2-3 h after CSF-1 removal. Readdition of CSF-1 to BMM previously incubated in its absence causes a return to the protein synthetic rate of exponentially growing cells within 2 h. In the presence of CSF-1, BMM synthesize protein at a rate of approximately 8.7%/h and degrade it at a rate of approximately 0.9%/h. Removal of CSF-1 results in a decrease in the protein synthetic rate to approximately 3.4%/h and an increase in the rate of protein degradation to approximately 3.4%/h. The rate of protein synthesis by BMM increases linearly with CSF-1 concentration over the range of concentrations stimulating both survival and proliferation, while the rate of protein degradation decreases exponentially over the range of concentrations stimulating survival without proliferation. Therefore, it appears that the stimulation of the rate of protein synthesis and inhibition of the rate of protein degradation are two distinct effects of CSF-1, both part of the pleiotropic response to this growth factor. The inhibition of the rate of protein degradation by CSF-1 may be most significant for its survival inducing effect. 相似文献

The mechanism by which a cell protects itself from the lethal effects of heat shock and other stress-inducing agents is the subject of much research. We have investigated the relationship between heat-induced damage to DNA replication machinery and the lethal effects of heat shock, in S-phase cells, which are more sensitive to heat shock than either G1 or G2. We found that maintaining cells in aphidicolin, which prevents the passage of cells through S-phase, can rescue S-phase HeLa cells from the lethal effects of heat shock. When S-phase, HeLa cells were held for 5-6 h in 3 microM aphidicolin the measured clonogenic survival was similar to that for exponentially growing cells. It is known, that heat shock induces denaturation or unfolding of proteins, rendering them less soluble and more likely to co-isolate with the nuclear matrix. Here, we show that enhanced binding of proteins involved in DNA replication (PCNA, RPA, and cyclin A), with the nuclear matrix, correlates with lethality of S-phase cells following heat shock under four different experimental conditions. Specifically, the amounts of RPA, PCNA, and cyclin A associated with the nuclear matrix when cells resumed progression through S-phase correlated with cell killing. Heat-induced enhanced binding of nuclear proteins involved with other aspects of DNA metabolism, (Mrell, PDI), do not show this correlation. These results support the hypothesis that heat-induced changes in the binding of proteins associated with DNA replication factories are the potentially lethal lesions, which become fixed to lethal lesions by S-phase progression but are repairable if S-phase progression is delayed. 相似文献

A recently identified novel mammalian cyclin (CYL1), induced by growth factors and apparently functional during the G1 phase of the cell cycle, is of potential significance, given that cell division is primarily controlled in G1. We have measured CYL1 gene expression in murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM), a normal cell type dependent upon colony-stimulating factors (CSFs) for survival and proliferation. The induction of CYL1 mRNA levels correlated strongly with stimulation of DNA synthesis, since elevated CYL1 mRNA levels occurred in response to the mitogenic stimuli, CSF-1, and granulocyte/macrophage CSF, but not to nonmitogenic macrophage-activating agents. BMM are subject to cell cycle arrest by numerous agents, including tumor necrosis factor alpha, interferon gamma, bacterial lipopolysaccharide, and agents that increase cAMP. These antiproliferative agents suppressed CSF-1-stimulated CYL1 gene expression, even when added late in G1. This pattern of CYL1 gene expression was remarkably consistent with the ability of these agents to inhibit progression into S phase. The mechanisms of negative growth regulation are largely unknown, and given the likely importance of G1 cyclins in the control of cell division, we propose that antiproliferative agents may exert their effects by suppressing G1 cyclin gene expression. 相似文献

Little is known about cell-cycle checkpoint activation by oxidative stress in mammalian cells. The effects of hyperoxia on cell-cycle progression were investigated in asynchronous human T47D-H3 cells, which contain mutated p53 and fail to arrest at G1/S in response to DNA damage. Hyperoxic exposure (95% O(2), 40-64 h) induced an S-phase arrest associated with acute inhibition of Cdk2 activity and DNA synthesis. In contrast, exit from G2/M was not inhibited in these cells. After 40 h of hyperoxia, these effects were partially reversible during recovery under normoxic conditions. The inhibition of Cdk2 activity was not due to degradation of Cdk2, cyclin E or A, nor impairment of Cdk2 complex formation with cyclin A or E and p21(Cip1). The loss of Cdk2 activity occurred in the absence of induction and recruitment of cdk inhibitor p21(Cip1) or p27(Kip1) in cyclin A/Cdk2 or cyclin E/Cdk2 complexes. In contrast, Cdk2 inhibition was associated with increased Cdk2-Tyr15 phosphorylation, increased E2F-1 recruitment, and decreased PCNA contents in Cdk2 complexes. The latter results indicate a p21(Cip1)/p27(Kip1)-independent mechanism of S-phase checkpoint activation in the hyperoxic T47D cell model investigated. 相似文献

The p21(WAF1/CIP1/sdi1) gene product (WAF1) inhibits DNA replication in vitro (J. Chen, P. Jackson, M. Kirschner, and A. Dutta, Nature 374:386-388, 1995; S. Waga, G. Hannon, D. Beach, and B. Stillman, Nature 369:574-578, 1994), but in vivo studies on the antiproliferative activity of WAF1 have not resolved G1-phase arrest from potential inhibition of S-phase progression. Here, we demonstrate that elevated WAF1 expression can retard replicative DNA synthesis in vivo. The WAF1-mediated inhibitory effect could be antagonized by cyclin A, cyclin E, or the simian virus 40 small-t antigen with no decrease in the levels of WAF1 protein in transfected cells. Proliferating-cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) overexpression was neither necessary nor sufficient to antagonize WAF1 action. Expression of the N-terminal domain of WAF1, responsible for cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) interaction, had the same effect as full-length WAF1, while the PCNA binding C terminus exhibited modest activity. We conclude that S-phase progression in mammalian cells is dependent on continuing cyclin and CDK activity and that WAF1 affects S phase primarily through cyclin- and CDK-dependent pathways. 相似文献

The role of stimulatory factors, such as the CSF, in the regulation of hemopoiesis has been extensively documented. Less is known of the negative regulators of hemopoiesis. In this report, we show that the macrophage activating agents, TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma, and LPS, are all potent inhibitors of CSF-1-stimulated murine bone marrow-derived macrophage (BMM) DNA synthesis and increase in cell numbers. The inhibitory effects of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma do not appear to be due to endotoxin contamination in the recombinant cytokine preparations. The inhibition of proliferation is reversible and is not due to a general loss of growth factor responsiveness, inasmuch as the three agents do not inhibit CSF-1-stimulated BMM survival, protein synthesis, or fluid phase pinocytosis. Because TNF-alpha and LPS are known to rapidly and potently down-modulate CSF-1 receptor levels in BMM, the results also suggest that low levels of receptor occupancy are sufficient for biological responses to CSF-1. The inhibitory effects of TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma, or LPS were also seen when granulocyte-macrophage-CSF or IL-3 was used to stimulate BMM DNA synthesis. The results suggest that TNF-alpha, IFN-gamma, and LPS appear to be inhibiting CSF-stimulated proliferation by acting at a post-receptor level, possibly by regulation of some critical event(s) in the mitogenic signaling pathway. 相似文献

Roles of the mitogen-activated protein kinase family in macrophage responses to colony stimulating factor-1 addition and withdrawal. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) (or macrophage CSF) is involved in the survival, proliferation, differentiation, and activation of cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage. Because the mitogen-activated protein kinase family members extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERKs), p38, and c-Jun N-terminal kinase are widely implicated in such cellular functions, we measured their activity in growing and growth-arrested cultures of bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM), as well as their stimulation by saturating concentrations of CSF-1. ERK activity was approximately 2-fold higher in cycling BMM compared with growth-arrested BMM; in addition, CSF-1-stimulated BMM DNA synthesis was partially inhibited by PD98059, a specific inhibitor of MEK activation, suggesting a role for a mitogen-activated protein-ERK kinase (MEK)/ERK pathway in the control of DNA synthesis but surprisingly not in the control of cyclin D1 mRNA or c-myc mRNA expression. The suppression of BMM apoptosis by CSF-1, i.e. enhanced survival, was not reversed by PD98059, suggesting that a MEK/ERK pathway is not involved in this process. Using a quantitative kinase assay, it was found that CSF-1 gave a slight increase in BMM p38 activity, supporting prior data that CSF-1 is a relatively weak stimulator of inflammatory cytokine production in monocytes/macrophages. Relatively high concentrations of the p38 inhibitor, SKB202190, suppressed CSF-1-stimulated BMM DNA synthesis. No evidence could be obtained for the involvement of p38 activity in BMM apoptosis following CSF-1 withdrawal. We were not able to show that CSF-1 enhanced BMM JNK-1 activity to a significant extent; again, no role could be found for JNK-1 activity in the BMM apoptosis occurring after CSF-1 removal. 相似文献

Activation and proliferation signals in murine macrophages: stimulation of glucose uptake by hemopoietic growth factors and other agents 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Purified colony-stimulating factor (CSF-1) (or macrophage colony stimulating factor [M-CSF]) stimulated the glucose uptake of murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM) and resident peritoneal macrophages (RPM) as measured by 3H-2-deoxyglucose (2-DOG) uptake. Similar concentrations of CSF-1 stimulated the 2-DOG uptake and DNA synthesis in BMM. Other purified hemopoietic growth factors, granulocyte-macrophage CSF (GM-CSF) and interleukin-3 (IL-3) (or multi-CSF), and the tumor promoter, 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), even though differing in their mitogenic capabilities on BMM, were also stimulators of 2-DOG uptake in BMM and RPM. The nonmitogenic agents, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and concanavalin A (Con A), were also active. The inhibition by cytochalasin B and by high concentrations of D-glucose suggest that the basal and stimulated 2-DOG uptake occurred via a carrier-facilitated D-glucose transport system. The responses of the two macrophage populations to the hemopoietic growth factors and to the other agents were quite similar, suggesting that events that are important for the induction of DNA synthesis are not tightly coupled to the earlier rise in glucose uptake. For the BMM, the ability of a particular agent to stimulate glucose uptake did not parallel its ability to promote cell survival. However, stimulation of glucose uptake could still be a necessary but insufficient early macrophage response for cell survival and subsequent DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) or CSF-1 controls the development of the macrophage lineage through its receptor tyrosine kinase, c-Fms. cAMP has been shown to influence proliferation and differentiation in many cell types, including macrophages. In addition, modulation of cellular ERK activity often occurs when cAMP levels are raised. We have shown previously that agents that increase cellular cAMP inhibited CSF-1-dependent proliferation in murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM) which was associated with an enhanced extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activity. We report here that increasing cAMP levels, by addition of either 8-bromo cAMP (8BrcAMP) or prostaglandin E(1) (PGE1), can induce macrophage differentiation in M1 myeloid cells engineered to express the CSF-1 receptor (M1/WT cells) and can potentiate CSF-1-induced differentiation in the same cells. The enhanced CSF-1-dependent differentiation induced by raising cAMP levels correlated with enhanced ERK activity. Thus, elevated cAMP can promote either CSF-1-induced differentiation or inhibit CSF-1-induced proliferation depending on the cellular context. The mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-related protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitor, PD98059, inhibited both the cAMP- and the CSF-1R-dependent macrophage differentiation of M1/WT cells suggesting that ERK activity might be important for differentiation in the M1/WT cells. Surprisingly, addition of 8BrcAMP or PGE1 to either CSF-1-treated M1/WT or BMM cells suppressed the CSF-1R-dependent tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular substrates, including that of the CSF-1R itself. It appears that there are at least two CSF-1-dependent pathway(s), one MEK/ERK dependent pathway and another controlling the bulk of the tyrosine phosphorylation, and that cAMP can modulate signalling through both of these pathways. 相似文献

Increased nuclear cyclin/PCNA antigen staining of non S-phase transformed human amnion cells engaged in nucleotide excision DNA repair 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
PCNA autoantibodies specific for cyclin/PCNA were used to determine the nuclear distribution of this protein in transformed human amnion cells (AMA) irradiated with ultraviolet light (254 nm) under conditions that induced nucleotide excision DNA repair synthesis. The results showed a striking increase in nuclear cyclin/PCNA antigen staining of non S-phase cells that was not abolished by cycloheximide (20 micrograms/ml, added 2 h before irradiation), and that is most likely due to a redistribution of pre-existing cyclin. These observations raise the possibility that cyclin/PCNA may play a role in nucleotide excision DNA repair synthesis in addition to its putative role in replicative DNA synthesis. 相似文献

Two prostaglandins, prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) and prostaglandin B1 (PGB1), block S-phase DNA synthesis in synchronous cultured baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells. The prostaglandin inhibition of DNA synthesis does not appear to require elevated levels of cAMP. In BHK-21 cells that have been "desensitized" to prostaglandin stimulation of adenylate cyclase and, therefore, have control levels of cAMP, PGE1 retains its inhibitory effect on the incorporation of tritiated thymidine into DNA. When BHK cells are exposed to PGB1 (a prostaglandin that does not elicit a cAMP response), DNA synthesis is also blocked. In nonsynchronous cells exposed for 1 h to PGE and then incubated for 1 h with PGE removed, a rebound of DNA synthesis occurs, therefore providing evidence that a transient rise of cAMP in itself is not capable of causing a cascade of reactions that block the synthesis of DNA. In addition, the concentration of PGE required for inhibition of DNA synthesis is significantly less than that required for cAMP generation. Addition of 1 x 10(-8) M PGE to BHK cells can be shown to significantly inhibit DNA synthesis within 30 min, with half-maximal inhibition seen at 3 x 10(-7) M PGE. Cyclic AMP levels for controls were 4.9 +/- 0.2 and 4.6 +/- 0.1 for 1 x 10(-6) M PGE1. These findings suggest that the prostaglandins can act independently of cAMP at physiological concentrations; and, therefore, it is possible that prostaglandins have a physiological role in the control of cell growth during S-phase. 相似文献

Primary cultures of murine bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) were prepared from marrow cell suspensions. These cells expressed specific receptors that recognized the transformed conformation of human alpha 2-macroglobulin (alpha 2M) generated by reaction with CH3NH2. alpha 2M receptor expression was regulated by colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1). The BMMs were deprived of CSF-1 for 6 h and then treated with different concentrations of the purified cytokine. After 18 h, binding of 125I-alpha 2M-CH3NH2 was examined at 4 degrees C. Analysis of the saturation isotherms and Scatchard transformations indicated that the KD was not affected by CSF-1 (1.9-2.4 nM), whereas the maximum specific radioligand binding capacity (Bmax) was increased from 5.6 x 10(4) receptors/cell in the absence of CSF-1 to 2.2 x 10(5) and 2.6 x 10(5) receptors/cell for BMMs treated with 1,000 and 10,000 units/ml CSF-1, respectively. The difference in total cellular protein after exposure to different levels of CSF-1 for 18 h was small (1.50-1.92 ng/cell) and not statistically significant. A 6-12-h lag phase was identified between the time of CSF-1 exposure and increased alpha 2M receptor expression. Cycloheximide completely blocked the increase in alpha 2M receptor expression when added simultaneously with the CSF-1; greater than 50% inhibition was observed when the cycloheximide was added up to 8 h later. The RNA synthesis inhibitors, actinomycin D and daunomycin, prevented increased alpha 2M receptor expression when added up to 4 h after the CSF-1, but had no effect at 8 h. At 37 degrees C, uptake and digestion of 125I-alpha 2M-CH3NH2 was increased in BMMs treated with 1,000 units/ml CSF-1 for 18 h compared with untreated cells. These studies demonstrate that CSF-1 increases the expression of alpha 2M receptors in BMMs through a pathway that requires new RNA and protein synthesis. We hypothesize that increased alpha 2M receptor expression may play an important role in cellular growth and differentiation. 相似文献

Mouse Hus1 encodes an evolutionarily conserved DNA damage response protein. In this study we examined how targeted deletion of Hus1 affects cell cycle checkpoint responses to genotoxic stress. Unlike hus1(-) fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe) cells, which are defective for the G(2)/M DNA damage checkpoint, Hus1-null mouse cells did not inappropriately enter mitosis following genotoxin treatment. However, Hus1-deficient cells displayed a striking S-phase DNA damage checkpoint defect. Whereas wild-type cells transiently repressed DNA replication in response to benzo(a)pyrene dihydrodiol epoxide (BPDE), a genotoxin that causes bulky DNA adducts, Hus1-null cells maintained relatively high levels of DNA synthesis following treatment with this agent. However, when treated with DNA strand break-inducing agents such as ionizing radiation (IR), Hus1-deficient cells showed intact S-phase checkpoint responses. Conversely, checkpoint-mediated inhibition of DNA synthesis in response to BPDE did not require NBS1, a component of the IR-responsive S-phase checkpoint pathway. Taken together, these results demonstrate that Hus1 is required specifically for one of two separable mammalian checkpoint pathways that respond to distinct forms of genome damage during S phase. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of the iron chelator desferrioxamine on the expression of transferrin receptors (TfR) by CCRF-CEM human T-cell leukaemia and B16 mouse melanoma cells growing in tissue culture. Desferrioxamine (DFOA) enhanced TfR expression when added in the dose range of 10(-5)-10(-4) to CCRF-CEM cells, but was toxic to these cells, the lower concentrations producing a slowing of cell growth with a build up in S-phase, while higher concentrations caused cell death with a block at the G1/S-phase interface. These toxic effects are compatible with its previously reported inhibition of the non-haem iron containing (M2) subunit of ribonucleotide reductase. In marked contrast, DFOA caused the growth of B16 melanoma cells to arrest in G1, without loss of cloning efficiency, and resulted in a fall in TfR expression to approximately 50% of control values. These results suggested that the effects of DFOA on TfR expression were linked to DNA synthesis rather than to a more generalised inhibition of iron-dependent cellular processes. It was subsequently found that inhibition of the M2 subunit of ribonucleotide reductase in CCRF-CEM cells with 5 X 10(-5) M hydroxyurea, which is not an iron chelator, also enhanced TfR expression, as did thymidine and cytosine arabinoside, which have different enzyme targets. By measuring cellular DNA and RNA content simultaneously it was shown that all of these agents caused unbalanced growth, i.e., inhibited DNA synthesis more than RNA synthesis. In contrast, 6-thioguanine was more inhibitory to RNA synthesis, and treatment with this drug caused a fall in TfR expression. Thus, although CCRF-CEM cells treated with DFOA show enhanced TfR expression, similar effects are also seen with other inhibitors of DNA synthesis, provided that RNA synthesis is allowed to continue. These results provide further evidence that the regulation of TfR expression by proliferating cells is specifically linked to DNA synthesis rather than to the iron requirements of other cellular processes. 相似文献

Colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) stimulates DNA synthesis in murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM); however, unlike BMM, murine resident peritoneal macrophages (RPM) undergo a poor proliferative response. It has previously been shown that phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis is not associated with CSF-1 action in BMM. In this report we demonstrate that, despite a lack of inositol trisphosphate generation, CSF-1 transiently elevated both [3H]myristoyl- and [3H]arachidonyl-diacylglycerol (DAG) in BMM in a dose-dependent fashion. CSF-1 failed, however, to stimulate an increase in either species of DAG in RPM. Thus, DAG could be a second messenger for the proliferative action of CSF-1 in macrophages. Other mitogenic agents, 12-0-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) and exogenous phospholipase C, also increased BMM levels of [3H]myristoyl- and [3H]arachidonyl-DAG. The nonmitogenic agents, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and zymosan, had different effects on the generation of either species of DAG in BMM. LPS failed to elevate either form, TNF-alpha increased only [3H]arachidonyl-DAG, while zymosan stimulated levels of both species of DAG. It therefore appears that increased diacylglycerol generation may be necessary, but perhaps not sufficient, for macrophage proliferation. 相似文献
