Induction and Reversal of Contact Inhibition of Growth by <Emphasis Type="Italic">p</Emphasis>H Modification 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
MANY normal mammalian cells in culture are sensitive to a growth-inhibitory effect of cellular interaction, evidenced by an almost complete arrest of macromolecular synthesis and cellular division at relatively low population densities (contact inhibition of growth)1. It has, however, been shown that the environmental pH is an important element in this phenomenon2. In the bicarbonate-buffered media ordinarily used for animal cell cultures, an initial alkalinization to pH 7.8–8.0 as a result of CO2 loss is followed by the metabolic acidification of the medium to pH 6.8–7.0, at a rate determined by the population density and the metabolic activity of the specific cell. If, by the use of appropriate non-volatile buffers3,4, cells are kept at or near the pH optimal for the specific strain (H. E., unpublished work), the early contact inhibition of growth does not develop and the cells achieve population densities as much as two to four times greater than those ordinarily observed2. 相似文献

The phenomenon of auto-inhibition of spore germination has beendemonstrated in the slime moulds Dictyostelium purpureum, strainno. 2; Dictyostelium discoideum, strain no. 1; Dictyosteliummucoroides, strain no. 2; and Polysphondy-Iium violeceum, strainno. 6. A water-soluble substance present in spores was shownto cause this self-inhibition. The substance was isolated fromeach species studied. Evidence as presented indicates that thesame substance occurs in each species of Dictyostelium, butthat it differs from that found in Pv6. An attempt was alsomade to relate this inhibitory substance to the phenomenon of'differential inhibition' in Dp2, Dd, Dm2, and Pu6. An explanationbased on evidence for differential sensitivity to a common inhibitorof spore germination in Dictyostelium and an inhibition in otherthan the spore stage in Pu6 is presented. Apparent differentialproduction of a common inhibitor in Dictyostelium is also reported. 相似文献
