Abstract:
:The effects of hormonal promotion of T24-ras oncogene-transfected rat embryo fibroblasts (REF) were compared to cotransformation of these cells with adenovirus E1A and ras. Cotransfection of E1A + ras resulted in the appearance of morphologically transformed cells which were very efficiently established into cell lines. Addition of glucocorticoid hormones to T24-ras-transfected REF cells resulted in cells with a transformed morphology and a capacity to form foci. These foci were, however, inefficiently established into stable cell lines. Removal of hormone from growing cells resulted in retarded growth, suggesting that the hormone acted as a growth factor on these cells. Both E1A-transformed cells and hormone-treated ras-transformed cells showed a reduction in synthesis of high molecular weight tropomyosin isoforms and a decreased expression of surface fibronectin. Control experiments demonstrated that the effects of hormone were mediated through the glucocorticoid receptor. Our findings suggest that glucocorticoid hormones may promote the in vitro growth of ras-initiated REF cells into stably transformed cell lines, but that this ability is limited compared to that of adenovirus E1A.
