High-molecular-weight genomic DNA isolated from a human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (AS) was assayed for its ability to induce tumorigenic transformation of NIH 3T3 cells. Subcutaneous injection of NIH 3T3 cells cotransfected with DNAs from AS tumor and pSV2-neo plasmid not only induced tumors at the site of injection, but also metastasized spontaneously to the lungs in 100% of nude mice injected. DNA isolated from a representative primary tumor and a metastasis was again used in a second round of transfection. Injection of secondary transfectants into nude mice again resulted in induction of both subcutaneous tumors and spontaneous long metastases. Southern blot hybridization with ras-specific probes revealed that DNA from both primary tumors and metastases induced by AS tumor DNA contained highly amplified Ha-ras oncogene. Furthermore, DNAs from secondary tumors and metastases induced by DNA from a primary tumor and a metastasis also contained similar highly amplified Ha-ras oncogene. These results suggest that the amplified Ha-ras oncogene may be responsible for induction of both tumorigenic and metastatic phenotypes in NIH 3T3 cells transfected with DNA from AS tumor. 相似文献

High molecular weight DNA prepared from three undifferentiated human stomach carcinomas was assayed for transforming activity by transfection of mouse NIH 3T3 cells. One tumor DNA sample (stomach carcinoma CaVSt) induced (the transfection efficiency: 0.02 transformants/micrograms DNA X 10(-6) cells) transformation of NIH 3T3 recipient cells. Transforming gene of Ha-ras type was identified in transformants derived from this human carcinoma. The genetic lesion responsible for the activation of the CaVSt Ha-ras oncogene is not localized in the 12-th codon for p21c-Ha-ras protein. 相似文献

A study of side reactions occurring during synthesis of oligodeoxynucleotides containing O6-alkyldeoxyguanosine residues at preselected sites 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
As part of our studies on the molecular mechanisms of mutation by carcinogens we have synthesized 12 oligonucleotides (15-mers) containing an O6-alkylguanine residue at a preselected position for use as primers in the enzymatic synthesis of biologically active DNA. Ten of these oligonucleotides are derived from a minus strand sequence carrying the modified nucleotide in the third codon of gene G of bacteriophage phi X174 DNA. Two others are derived from plus strand sequences carrying the modification in the 12th codon of the human Ha-ras protooncogene. During this work several potentially serious side reactions, which could complicate interpretation of mutagenesis data, were observed. This paper describes a detailed study of these reactions. Since we were unable to avoid undesirable side products, we developed simple chromatographic methods for detecting and removing them. 相似文献

Conservative amino acid substitutions were introduced into the proposed effector regions of both mammalian Ha-ras (residues 32 to 40) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae RAS2 (residues 39 to 47) proteins. The RAS2[Ser 42] protein had reduced biological function in the yeast S. cerevisiae. A S. cerevisiae strain with a second-site suppressor mutation, SSR2-1, was isolated which could grow on nonfermentable carbon sources when the endogenous RAS2 protein was replaced by the RAS2[Ser 42] protein. The SSR2-1 mutation was mapped to the structural gene for adenylate cyclase (CYR1), and the gene containing SSR2-1 was cloned and sequenced. SSR2-1 corresponded to a point mutation that would create an amino acid substitution of a tyrosine residue for an aspartate residue at position 1547. The SSR2-1 gene encodes an adenylate cyclase that is dependent on ras proteins for activity, but is stimulated by Ha-ras and RAS2 mutant proteins that are unable to stimulate wild-type adenylate cyclase. 相似文献

We have used a short-term transfection technique, in which we monitor the ability of DNA fragments to induce the expression of the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene in rat 208F fibroblast cells. Using appropriate vectors we have assayed for promoter or enhancer activity of the 0.8 kb SstI fragment located within the 5'-flanking sequences of the first coding exon of the human T24 and normal Ha-ras1 genes. We find that this fragment contains promoter and enhancer activities in both the normal and the T24 Ha-ras1 gene. 相似文献

Primary human embryonic kidney (HEK) cells were transformed by a focus assay with BK virus (BKV) DNA molecularly cloned at its unique EcoRI site. Both viral DNA sequences and viral tumor antigens were present and expressed in all the foci that we examined. However, cells isolated from foci were incapable of growth in soft agar. We then examined the transformation of HEK cells after their transfection with a combination of BKV DNA and either the normal or the activated form of the human Ha-ras oncogene (EJ c-Ha-ras-1). Only the cells transfected with a combination of BKV DNA and the activated form of Ha-ras were capable of growth in soft agar. Both BKV and Ha-ras DNAs were present in the transformed colonies. BKV tumor antigens and the Ha-ras p21 protein were also expressed. 相似文献

The expression of Ha-ras in quiescent NIH3T3 cells carrying a glucocorticoid-inducible human Ha-ras gene (Val-Gly mutation at codon 12) stimulates total 86Rb+ influx. This effect is predominantly due to an elevated 86Rb+ uptake through an ouabain-resistant, furosemide-sensitive system. The ouabain-sensitive Na+/K(+)-ATPase is less affected. The transport which is resistant to both inhibitors is not altered by Ha-ras. Overexpression of the Ha-ras proto-oncogene causes only a marginal increase in total 86Rb+ uptake. The stimulation of the furosemide-sensitive influx by Ha-ras is paralleled by an increase in mean cell volume which can be inhibited by furosemide. A rapid stimulation of the furosemide-sensitive Rb+ influx is also observed after addition of bombesin to growth-arrested cells. Furosemide inhibits the mitogenic response after expression of Ha-ras or addition of bombesin. Both the Ha-ras and the bombesin-induced stimulation of the furosemide-sensitive Rb+ transport can be blocked by protein kinase C depletion or the protein kinase C inhibitor staurosporine. In contrast to bombesin-induced phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate hydrolysis which is down-modulated by Ha-ras, the stimulation of the furosemide-sensitive Rb+ influx by bombesin is elevated in Ha-ras-expressing cells. This is in accordance with the increased mitogenic activity of bombesin in Ha-ras-expressing cells. 相似文献

We used a dominant inhibitory mutation of c-Ha-ras which changes Ser-17 to Asn-17 in the gene product p21 [p21(Asn-17)Ha-ras] to investigate ras function in mitogenic signal transduction. An NIH 3T3 cell line [NIH(M17)] was isolated that displayed inducible expression of the mutant Ha-ras gene (Ha-ras Asn-17) via the mouse mammary tumor virus long terminal repeat and was growth inhibited by dexamethasone. The effect of dexamethasone induction on response of quiescent NIH(M17) cells to mitogens was then analyzed. Stimulation of DNA synthesis by epidermal growth factor (EGF) and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) was completely blocked by p21(Asn-17) expression, and stimulation by serum, fibroblast growth factor, and platelet-derived growth factor was partially inhibited. However, the induction of fos, jun, and myc by EGF and TPA was not significantly inhibited in this cell line. An effect of p21(Asn-17) on fos induction was, however, demonstrated in transient expression assays in which quiescent NIH 3T3 cells were cotransfected with a fos-cat receptor plasmid plus a Ha-ras Asn-17 expression vector. In this assay, p21(Asn-17) inhibited chloramphenicol acetyltransferase expression induced by EGF and other growth factors. In contrast to its effect on DNA synthesis, however, Ha-ras Asn-17 expression did not inhibit fos-cat expression induced by TPA. Conversely, downregulation of protein kinase C did not inhibit fos-cat induction by activated ras or other oncogenes. These results suggest that ras proteins are involved in at least two parallel mitogenic signal transduction pathways, one of which is independent of protein kinase C. Although either pathway alone appears to be sufficient to induce fos, both appear to be necessary to induce the full mitogenic response. 相似文献

DNA from human breast carcinoma (SK-BR-3) and neuroblastoma (LA-N-1) cell lines are capable of inducing foci of transformed NIH 3T3 cells after DNA-mediated gene transfer. The blot hybridization analysis of DNA from primary and secondary NIH 3T3 transformants identified additional sequences homologous to the c-Ha-ras 1 oncogene, and revealed amplification of nucleotide sequences homologous to the v-myc oncogene. Restriction fragments of the amplified myc-related sequences correspond to c-myc (SK-BR-3) and N-myc (LA-N-1) loci of the human genome. The results show that active Ha-ras oncogenes can coexist with altered myc oncogenes in breast carcinomas and neuroblastomas. This suggests that a multi-step mechanism involves both ras and myc genes and their cooperation in the development of these tumors. 相似文献

Expression of a transforming Ha-ras gene in NIH 3T3 cells transfected with an inducible Ha-ras construct leads to a rapid desensitization of the intracellular Ca2(+)-mobilizing system to bombesin and serum growth factors. Half-maximal depression of the Ca2+ response is observed 2 h after induction of p21ras. A maximum is obtained after 6 h. Bombesin-induced elevation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation is also depressed in cells expressing Ha-ras. This, however, is a relatively late phenomenon and not yet detectable when maximal depression of the Ca2+ signal is observed. We conclude that the rapid densensitization of the Ca2(+)-releasing system to bombesin by Ha-ras is not caused by down-modulation or uncoupling of phospholipase C-coupled bombesin receptors. The inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-mediated release of intracellular Ca2+ is reduced in permeabilized cells expressing the Ha-ras oncogene. A depletion of intracellular Ca2+ stores by Ha-ras is unlikely since (i) the Ha-ras-induced growth factor-independent stimulation of inositol phosphate formation occurs several hours after reduction of the Ca2+ response and (ii) the Ca2+ load of intracellular nonmitochondrial Ca2+ stores was found to be unaffected by Ha-ras. We conclude that the desensitization of the Ca2(+)-mobilizing system is caused either by partial inhibition of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate-regulated Ca2+ channels or by interference of Ha-ras with Ca2+ translocation between intracellular Ca2+ compartments. 相似文献

Antisense oligodeoxynucleotides targeted to Ha-ras mRNA have been designed to discriminate between the codon 12-mutated oncogene and the normal proto-oncogene. An in vitro assay using two different sources of RNase H (rabbit reticulocyte lysates and nuclear extract from HeLa cells) was used to characterize oligonucleotide binding to normal and mutated Ha-ras mRNA. Short oligonucleotides (12- or 13mers) centered on the mutation had a very high discriminatory efficiency. Longer oligonucleotides (16mers) did not discriminate efficiently between the mutated and the normal mRNA. We have tested the efficacy of dodecanucleotides to induce RNase H cleavage of the full-length mRNA, moving the target sequence from the loop to the stem region which is formed in the vicinity of mutated codon 12. The most selective oligonucleotides were centered on the mutation which is located near the junction between the loop and stem regions even though they were less efficient at inducing RNase H cleavage than those targeted to the loop region. The 12mer antisense oligonucleotide with the highest discriminatory power was selected for cell culture studies. This oligonucleotide inhibited the proliferation of a human cell line which had been transformed with the mutated Ha-ras gene (HBL100ras1) but had no effect on the parental cell line which was transfected with the vector DNA (HBL 100neo) and expressed only the normal Ha-ras gene. Growth inhibition of HBL100ras1 cells was associated with specific ablation of targeted Ha-ras mRNA as shown by RT-PCR. These results show that 'in vitro' evaluation using an RNase H assay allowed us to select an antisense oligonucleotide which elicited a selectivity towards point-mutated Ha-ras mRNA when added at 10 microM concentration to the culture medium of cells expressing wild type and mutated Ha-ras mRNA. 相似文献

Desensitization of the Ca2+-mobilizing system to serum growth factors by Ha-ras and v-mos. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

An elevation of the intracellular pH and a rise in the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration are considered important mitogenic signals which are observed after stimulation by various growth factors. In a preceding report it was demonstrated that the expression of Ha-ras or v-mos in cells transfected with Ha-ras or v-mos, respectively, leads to an activation of the Na+/H+ antiporter and a concomitant rise in intracellular pH (W. Doppler, R. Jaggi, and B. Groner, Gene 54:145-151, 1987). This report describes the effect of the Ha-ras and v-mos oncogenes on intracellular Ca2+ release. The expression of Ha-ras in NIH 3T3 cells carrying a glucocorticoid-inducible transforming Ha-ras gene caused a desensitization of the Ca2+-mobilizing system to serum growth factors. The induction of p21ras in cells carrying the corresponding glucocorticoid-inducible proto-oncogene did not affect the Ca2+ response to growth factors. Conditions leading to the expression of the transforming Ha-ras gene but not those causing the induction of the normal Ha-ras gene yielded an increase in phosphatidylinositol turnover and a concomitant rise in inositol phosphates. Results similar to those obtained with the transforming Ha-ras gene were seen after the expression of v-mos. The data are consistent with a mechanism in which expression of the transforming Ha-ras gene leads to a release of Ca2+ from intracellular stores via elevated levels of inositol trisphosphate. 相似文献

本文将克隆于pBR322的人胃癌Ha-ras基因(PGC6.6)和带有上游区片段的Ha-ras基因(PGC9.1)的CC~*GG位点甲基化后,转化NIH3T3细胞。发现pGC6.6甲基化与非甲基化对转化效率无明显影响,而pGC9.1甲基化后转化效率明显低于非甲基化pGC9.1者,甲基化/非甲基化pGC9.1的转化效率均明显高于甲基化/非甲基化pGC6.6者。本文又对人胃癌组织及癌旁组织DNA中Ha-ras基因的HpaⅡ、Msp Ⅰ限制性内切酶图谱作了比较,并同对比较了癌及癌旁组织中Ha-ras基因的mRNA水平,发现一例病人癌组织中Ha-ras基因的CC~*GG位点甲基化程度较癌旁组织中者低,且该例中Ha-ras基因表达水平在癌组织中明显地高。这些结果,结合我们以前的研究表明:在人胃Ha-ras癌基因上游区可能存在一增强子样作用的区域,对Ha-ras基因起调控作用。该上游区CC~*GG位点的甲基化能降低这种调控作用。仅Ha-ras结构基因的CC~*GG位点甲基化不足以明显影响其转化活性。在体内,Ha-ras基因甲基化水平降低可能与其达表水平升高以至诱发癌症有关。 相似文献

人脑原发性肺瘤癌基因的研究——Southern吸印杂交分析 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
用c-myc、Ha-ras、v-sis及v-erbB四种癌基因为分子探针,对8例人脑原发性肿瘤和两例正常人脑DNA进行Southern吸印杂交分析。结果显示:以c-myc基因为探针进行分子杂交时,所有被检测肿瘤和正常对照都可见一条相同的10.0kb(HindⅢ酶切)人c-myc基因区带。其中一例室管膜瘤和一例脑膜瘤还出现另一条异常的7.0kb(HindⅢ酶切)c-myc基因区带。斑点杂交结果表明,上述两例肿瘤中有c-myc基因的扩增(2—8倍),同时还具有erbB基因的扩增(8倍)。Ha-ras及v-sis基因杂交,未见异常区带。上述结果提示室管膜瘤和脑膜瘤的发生可能与c-myc基因的激活有关;c-myc基因的异常变化与erbB基因扩增同时出现,可能为癌基因之间的协同作用提供证据。 相似文献
