ABSTRACT

Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), the calcium ionophore A23187, and the tumor promoter phorbol myristate acetate stimulated c-fos mRNA levels in control NIH 3T3 cells. However, NIH 3T3 cells transformed by EJ-ras DNA transfection, which have diminished PDGF-stimulated phospholipase C activity, showed a 95% reduction in PDGF-stimulated c-fos mRNA levels. The responses to A23187 and phorbol myristate acetate were also attenuated, but not as severely as the PDGF-mediated induction. The reduction in PDGF-stimulated c-fos induction did not appear to be a general result of cellular transformation, since src-transformed NIH 3T3 cells displayed a strong PDGF-stimulated c-fos induction. Despite the reduction in PDGF-stimulated c-fos induction, EJ-ras-transformed cells still responded mitogenically to PDGF. These data suggest that the magnitude of c-fos induction cannot be directly correlated with PDGF-stimulated mitogenesis in EJ-ras-transformed NIH 3T3 cells.
