    Notes: A cDNA-cloned library was prepared from mRNA synthesized by SV40-transformed mouse cells. Eleven cDNA clones were selected based on their ability to hybridize higher levels of mRNA in SV40-transformed 3T3 cells than in 3T3 cells. These cDNA clones were employed to screen the steady-state levels of cytoplasmic RNAs in a wide variety of viral (SV40, polyoma, adenovirus, and Rous sarcoma virus) and nonviral (methylcholanthrene, embryonal carcinoma) transformed cell lines. Two of the cDNA clones - A17 and 104 - detected greater than 40-100-fold higher levels of mRNA in all the transformed cell lines tested when compared to nontransformed cells (3T3, C3HEF). The levels of mRNA complementary to these two cDNAs were regulated in a temperature-sensitive fashion (87-100-fold) in both SV40tsA- and RSV ts-src-transformed murine cell lines. These two cDNA clones detected greater than 100-fold, higher levels of complementary RNA derived from SV40 tumor tissue than in normal mouse liver. RNA species complementary to cDNA clones A17 or 104 were not detected in either actively growing nontransformed cells or in serum-stimulated 3T3 cells. The abundance levels of mRNAs detected by these two cDNA clones appear to be regulated 100-fold or greater by the transformed state, independent of the transforming agent. The higher levels of these RNA species detected in transformed mouse cells appear not to be solely regulated by the state of growth of nontransformed cells.

    The characterization of SV40-transformed cell lines derived from mouse teratocarcinoma: Growth properties and differentiated characteristicsA portion of this work was presented at the Conference on “Regulation of Gene Expression in Development and Neoplasia” which was published in Cancer Research, 36, 4217-4223, 1976.

    Notes: Mouse teratocarcinoma cells derived from embryoid bodies of 129SVsl mice were cultured in vitro to permit their differentiation. These cells were then infected with simiam virus 40 (SV40) and 31 cloned cell lines (SVTER) were derived from these cultures. All 31 SVTER cell lines contained the SV40 tumor (T) antigen and grew as permanent lines in culture. Mock-infected embryoid body cultures did not give rise to permanent cell lines. The morphology of each SVTER cell line was distinct and did not change during successive subclonings.The growth properties and tumorigenic potential of all 31 SVTER cell lines were investigated. None of these lines produced tumors in 129SVsl mice. Each cell line was tested for its ability to (1) grow in medium containing 1% serum, (2) plate on a cell monolayer, and (3) form clones in methocel suspension. Only three of the SVTER cell lines were transformed with respect to all three of these criteria. Most of these cell lines were minimal transformation.The SVTER cell lines were tested for creatine phosphokinase (CPK), an enzyme activity characteristic of mouse brain and muscle tissue, and the protease, plasminogen activator (PA) which is found in embryoid bodies and several differentiated cell types. Some of the SVTER cell lines contained high levels of CPK, while others had high levels of PA and a third group of cells contained neither enzyme activity. No SVTER cell line was found with high levels of both these enzyme activities. This result suggests that mutually exclusive sets of genes are expressed in these cells as might be expected from the distinct tissue distribution of the two enzyme activities studied. These SVTER cell lines may be useful in reconstructing developmental pathways of differentiating teratomas in vitro.
