    Notes: Abstract A topoisomerase II inhibitor, novobiocin, and a deacetylase inhibitor, butyrate, synergistically transformed human liver cells into fibroblast-like cells. This morphological change was associated with an increased production of procollagen type III peptide and a simultaneous assembly of actin, tubulin, vimentin and cytokeratin. Novobiocin and butyrate had no marked effect on the phosphorylation state of cytokeratin proteins, but synergistically enhanced [3H]acetate uptake. From these results, it can be speculated that protein acetylation plays an important role in inducing the assembly of cytoskeletal proteins and the morphological transformation of human liver cells.

    Notes: Abstract The administration of 200 nM K252a to HuH7 suppressed the proliferation of the cells almost completely. The uptake of [3H]thymidine was inhibited, and flow cytometry revealed only one peak at 2C on day 3 after treatment with 100 nM K252a. The expression of proto-oncogene c-myc was not reduced. Despite the blockage at G1, both the size of the cells and the amount of cell protein had increased by 4 times by day 3 after treatment with K252a, while the cells secreted albumin and α-fetoprotein into the medium as usual. These results show that K252a can increase the cell size of HuH7 without losing its function by blocking the cell cycle at G1 phase.
