The effect of retinyl acetate (RAC) on the activity of CAMPdependent protein kinase (PKA) was studied in mouse IOTI/Z cells. The studies revealed that normal IOT112 cells had about 13-fold more PKA activity than did methylcholanthrenetransformed cells (MCA cells). The addition of RAC to MCA cells in

β¦ Synopsis
In vitro directional migration of l OT1/2fibroblasts is partially inhibited by TPA but not by its non-promoting analogues. Other tumor promoters, e.g., phenobarbital, saccharin, and benzoylperoxide had no measurable effect when added in concentrations known to affect in vitro two-step transformation or intercellular communication. Inhibitors of in vitro transformation do not affect migration, except for dexamethasone, which inhibited it. Hence, there is no evidence for a general correlation between tumor promoting potential and inhibition o fin vitro directional migration.
