✦ Synopsis


Transforming growth factor-pl (TGF-P1 ) regulates the expression of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) gene family in the human colon carcinotna cell line Moscr. The mechanisms through which it acts, however, are unknown. In this communication, sevrral lines of evidence are presented to show that the induction of CEA expression and secretion (collectively called CEA response3) by TGF-p1 is associated with protein kinase C (PKC) pathway of signal transduction.

Trealnient of intact cells with the PKC-specific inhibitor calphostin C downmodulated cellular PKC phosphotransferase activity and blocked thc induction of the CEA responses by TGF-PI . Depletion of PKC by treatment of intact cells with phorbol ester also blocked the action of TGF-PI. The induction of the CEA responses by TGF-PI was also blocked by the protein kinase inhibitor 1 -(isoquin-

Transforming growth factor-␣ (TGF-␣) is synthesized as a membrane-bound precursor protein, pro-TGF-␣, that is converted to a soluble form by 2 endoproteolytic cleavages.

Human colon carcinoma cell lines secrete transforminggrowth factor-a (TGF-a). Previous work indicated that the apparent m.w. of the TGF-a secreted by these cells ranged between 5 and 25 kDa. The more differentiated CEO cell line secreted a higher percentage of high m.w. TGF-a than did the poorly dif
