## Abstract Nerve growth factor (NGF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), adenosine 3′,5′‐cyclic monophosphate (cAMP), and cholera toxin all increase the specific activity of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) in the PC12 nerve‐like cell line. A phosphodiesterase inhibitor augments the effect of NGF on the

Sodium arsenite proved effective in preventing the induction of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity elicited by dilution of Friend erythroleukemia cells in fresh medium. A 50 per cent inhibition was produced at approximately 1 p~ arsenite and complete inhibition was obtained at concentrations abo
## Abstract In this study the effects of retinoic acid on the binding and mitogenic activity of epidermal growth factor (EGF) in mouse fibroblast Balb/c 3T6 cells are further examined. Retinoic acid treatment of 3T6 cells results in a sixfold enhancement of ^125^I‐labeled mouse EGF binding when ass
## Abstract Ornithine decarboxylase activity in high density, stationary phase rat hepatoma (HTC) cells in suspension culture has an extremely short half‐life of between 5 and 15 minutes, as measured after inhibiting protein synthesis. Following dilution of these cells into fresh medium there is a
## Abstract HTC cells incubated in the absence of serum for more than 14 hours have very low levels of ornithine decarboxylase, the first enzyme on the pathway of polyamine synthesis. Readdition of serum causes an increase in the activity of ODC, reaching a maximum on average 17 times above the bas
