Abstract
Balb/3T3 murine fibroblasts transformed by transfection with the EJ/T24 human bladder carcinoma oncogene were assayed in terms of adenylate cyclase response and hydrolysis of polyphosphoinositides dependent on specific agents. Transformed cells were much less responsive to beta-adrenergic agonists in rising cAMP than normal cells. They are instead much more sensitive to muscarinic receptor agonists, inducing a rapid intracellular accumulation of inositol phosphates. These results suggest that the functional alteration of the cell membrane caused by the product of the point mutated H-ras oncogene concerns in 3T3 fibroblasts both inhibitory and stimulatory effects, respectively on adenylate cyclase and phosphoinositide-phosphodiesterase.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
