    Notes: Summary G2-enriched fractions of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells (up to 80%–85% G2 cells) separated from anaerobically and aerobically cultured asynchronous populations by centrifugal elutriation revealed the same growth characteristics after recultivation under standard conditions: a significant proportion of cells with increased DNA (DNA content〉4C) emerged. Interruption of DNA synthesis by deprivation of oxygen may account for polyploidisation (over-replication) of DNA but other mechanisms must be taken into consideration.

    Notes: Summary 1. Proliferation of in vitro grown Ehrlich ascites tumor cells is completely inhibited by 0.2–0.4 mM methylglyoxal and 1–2mM glucosone or galactosone without severely affecting viability (dye exclusion test); no phase-specific arrest of cell growth is observed. 2. Incorporation of [14C] thymidine into the acid-insoluble fraction of the cells decreases within a few minutes to less than 50% of that in controls in the presence of 0.4 mM methylglyoxal, and 2 mM glucosone or galactosone causes a comparable inhibition of DNA synthesis after 2 h or 4 h, respectively. 3. The action of 0.4 mM methylglyoxal inhibits incorporation of [14C] leucine within a few minutes by more than 70%, while 2 mM glucosone and galactosone are significantly less effective (50%–60% inhibition after 12 h). 4. While methylglyoxal and galactosone do not severely affect lactate production of the cells, 2 mM glucosone reduces glycolysis by 60%–70%; ATP/ADP ratios did not fall below 3.5 in the presence of the inhibitors (controls 4–6). 5. It is suggested that the reaction potentialities of the oxaldehyde function of the inhibitors play an important role in their growth-inhibitory acitivity, besides exerting a specific effect on hexokinase (glucosone) and UTP-trapping activity.

    Notes: Cell division, neurite formation and acetylcholinesterase activity were examined in a clone (NBA2) of mouse neuroblastoma cells maintained for up to 120 hours in medium with pH values between 6.6 and 8.0. Growth rate decreased as pH was reduced from 7.8 to 6.6. Generation time at pH 7.4 was 25 hours, while the rate of cell division was negligible at pH 6.6. The total number of cells at stationary phase was less at the lower pH values. Neurite formation was enhanced markedly as the pH was reduced from 7.4 to 6.6. Acetylcholinesterase activity was 5- to 8-fold greater in cells exposed to medium at pH 6.6 than in cells maintained in medium at pH 7.4. The reduction in the rate of cell division and increases in neurite formation and acetylcholinesterase activity at pH 6.6 were reversible upon exposure of the cells to pH 7.4 medium. Cell viability was greater than 90% at all medium pH values over a period of 120 hours. Uncloned T-59 mouse neuroblastoma cells were affected similarly by changes in pH. These results show that manipulation of the environmental pH can reversibly alter growth, neurite formation, and acetylcholinesterase activity of mouse neuroblastoma cells in culture.

    Notes: The aim of the present study was to investigate the expression of the mammary derived growth inhibitor (MDGI) and the subcellular localization of MDGI related antigens in bovine mammary glands. Cell-free translation of poly (A+) = RNA, immunoprecipitation with rabbit anti-MDGI-antibodies, and estimation of the relative contents of MDGI by a radioimmunoassay in mammary tissue of different functional statess revealed that the 13 kDa MDGI was dramatically increased in terminally differentiated mammary tissue compared with the proliferating tissue from pregnant animals. To address the question of tissue localizationl, polyclonal anti-MDGI antibodies and antibodies directed aganist a sythetic peptide corresponding ot residues 69 to 78 of MDGI were used. Western blotting of tissue fractions revealed the cytosolic and microsomal localization of MDGI. Additionally, both types of antibodies a 70-kDa antigeninthe unclear fractionof differentiated mammary glands. Salt extraction and DNase I digestion of isolated unclei, as well as chromatin purification, indicated an association of the 70-kDa antigen with the chromatin. By means of the immunogold technique, MDGI-related antigens were localized within euchromatic unclear regions of epithelial cells in the intact differentiated mammary gland. The immunostaining was markedly diminished in the proliferating tissue. This finding raises the possibility that MDGI and the 70-kDa antigen influence cell proliferation by acting on geneexpression within the unclei of mammary glands.
