✦ Synopsis
Transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha) stimulates (in a dose-dependent manner) the incorporation of [32P]Pi into phosphatidylinositol (PI), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP), phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), and phosphatidic acid (PA) in the human epidermoid carcinoma cell line (A431). The effect of TGF-alpha on the incorporation was found to be similar to that of EGF. On the other hand, a striking difference in the activation of diacylglycerol (DG) kinase activity was seen between TGF-alpha and EGF. At least 100 times more TGF-alpha was required to achieve maximal stimulation of DG kinase activity relative to EGF. These results suggest that the activation of DG kinase by TGF-alpha may involve a mechanism independent from or subsequent to activation of the EGF receptor.

The effect of tyrosine kinase inhibitor, erbstatin, on cell growth and mRNA expression of growth-factor/receptor system was examined in 6 human gastric-carcinoma cell lines. Erbstatin inhibited both EGF-induced and serum-stimulated cell growth of all 6 cell lines (TMK-I, MKN-I, -7, -28, -45, -74) in
