The effect of several tumor promoters (12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA); 1,1'-(2,2,2-trichloroethylidene)bis[4-chlorobenzene] (DDT); Aroclor1260, and clofibrate) on the inhibition of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) and intracellular calcium concentration (Ca(2+)) was studied in a cell line consisting of initiated cells (3PC). In addition, the effect of different extracellular calcium concentrations (Ca(2+)) on the effects of tumor promoters on both GJIC and Ca(2+) were studied. Agents with GJIC inhibiting capacity increased Ca(2+). However, the increase of Ca(2+) did not (always) precede GJIC inhibition. The effect of tumor promoters on GJIC were similar under low (0.05 mM) and high (1.20 mM) Ca(2+)(e) conditions, while different effects on Ca(2+) were found. These results suggest that tumor promoters can inhibit GJIC and change Ca(2+), but that there is no direct relationship between these two processes.
几种肿瘤促进剂(12-O-十四烷酰佛波醇-13-醋酸酯(TPA);1,1'-(2,2,2-三氯乙基)双[4-氯苯](DDT);Aroclor1260 和氯贝酸)对起始细胞(3PC)组成的细胞系中细胞间隙连接细胞间通讯(GJIC)和细胞内钙离子浓度(Ca(2+))的抑制作用进行了研究。此外,还研究了不同细胞外钙离子浓度(Ca(2+))对肿瘤促进剂对 GJIC 和 Ca(2+)的影响。具有 GJIC 抑制能力的试剂会增加 Ca(2+)。然而,Ca(2+)的增加并不总是先于 GJIC 抑制。在低(0.05 mM)和高(1.20 mM)Ca(2+)条件下,肿瘤促进剂对 GJIC 的作用相似,而对 Ca(2+)的作用则不同。这些结果表明,肿瘤促进剂可以抑制 GJIC 并改变 Ca(2+),但这两个过程之间没有直接关系。
