Induction of the proto-oncogene fos by nerve growth factor.
Nerve growth factor (NGF) causes the differentiation of PC12 cells to sympathetic neuron-like cells and also induces a rapid but transient expression of fos mRNA and protein. fos mRNA transcripts can be detected 5 min after the addition of NGF, are maximally abundant after 30 min, and then their levels decrease. fos protein synthesis parallels the expression of fos mRNA, and the induced fos pro...
متن کاملInvolvement of glutathione in induction of c-jun proto-oncogene by methylmethanesulfonate in NIH 3T3 cells.
The c-jun proto-oncogene plays a vital role in the carcinogenic process. Although numerous works have extensively investigated the induction mechanisms of c-jun by UV, hydrogen peroxide or 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, the mechanism induced by alkylating agents has received little attention. In this study, NIH 3T3 cells were exposed to methylmethanesulfonate (MMS), revealing that the ag...
متن کاملInduction of c-fos and c-jun proto-oncogene expression by asbestos is ameliorated by N-acetyl-L-cysteine in mesothelial cells.
Asbestos fibers cause dose-dependent, persistent increases in mRNA levels of c-jun and c-fos proto-oncogenes in rat pleural mesothelial (RPM) cells, the progenitor cells of asbestos-induced mesothelioma (N. Heintz, Y. M. W. Janssen, and B. T. Mossman. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 90: 3299-3303, 1993). Here we report that addition of N-acetyl-L-cysteine decreases asbestos-mediated induction of c-...
متن کاملAntisense RNA of proto-oncogene c-fos blocks renewed growth of quiescent 3T3 cells.
Mouse 3T3 cells were transformed with an antisense c-fos gene fused to a mouse mammary tumor virus promoter. In transformants that integrated a large number of antisense c-fos sequences, the usual large increase in c-fos mRNA and protein following stimulation of quiescent cells by platelet-derived growth factor was blocked in the presence of dexamethasone. These cells subsequently also failed t...
متن کاملInhibition of protein kinase C prevents asbestos-induced c-fos and c-jun proto-oncogene expression in mesothelial cells.
Asbestos and the phorbol ester tumor promoter, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), increase c-fos and c-jun mRNA levels and AP-1 DNA binding activity in rat pleural mesothelial (RPM) cells, a target cell of asbestos-induced mesotheliomas (N. H. Heintz et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 90: 3299-3303, 1993). Because protein kinase C (PKC) is the intracellular receptor of phorbol ester t...
