Abstract

Cholera toxin was used in an attempt to inhibit epidermal growth factor stimulated 3T3 cell division. Instead, cholera toxin alone at low concentrations (10^βˆ’10^ M), was able to stimulate cell division and could augment EGF stimulated cell division. The mitogenic effect of cholera toxin can occur despite a dramatic increase in the intracellular levels of cAMP in 3T3 cells. Cholera toxin stimulated mitogenesis could not be mimicked by choleragenoid, the binding but inactive subunit of cholera toxin, or by other agents which elevate cAMP levels in 3T3 cells.

The effect of time-controlled exposures to cholera toxin (CT) on intracellular levels of cyclic AMP (CAMP) and on the proliferative response of serumstimulated 3T3 cells was investigated. Continuous exposure to CT caused up to 8-fold raises in cAMP content and inhibited DNA replication by delaying G

Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) at concentrations of 10(-9) to 10(-10) M initiates cell division in both confluent and low density non-dividing 3T3 cells. Four days after addition of EGF to confluent or low density non-dividing 3T3 cells there is a 2- and 5-fold increase, respectively, in cell number.
