Inhibition of intercellular communication, as measured by metabolic cooperation between 6-thioguanine-sensitive and resistant Chinese hamster V79 cells, has been previously shown to be correlated with a large variety of known tumor promoters in many species and organ systems. The effects of anthralin and oleic acid, at non-cytotoxic concentrations, were shown to eliminate metabolic cooperation in Chinese hamster cells. Moreover, increased serum levels appear to reduce the effectiveness of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, a powerful tumor promoter and inhibitor of metabolic cooperation, to eliminate metabolic cooperation. Results are consistent with the hypothesis that inhibition of metabolic cooperation is associated with an aspect of the complex tumor promotion process and indicate that in vitro culture conditions are critical for the proper assessment of potential tumor promoters.
通过6-硫鸟嘌呤敏感和抗性的中国仓鼠V79细胞之间的代谢合作来衡量,细胞间通讯的抑制作用先前已表明与许多物种和器官系统中的多种已知肿瘤启动子相关。在非细胞毒性浓度下,蒽林和油酸的作用显示可消除中国仓鼠细胞中的代谢合作。此外,血清水平升高似乎会降低12-O-十四烷酰佛波醇-13-乙酸酯(一种强大的肿瘤启动子和代谢合作抑制剂)消除代谢合作的有效性。结果与以下假设一致,即代谢合作的抑制与复杂肿瘤促进过程的一个方面相关,并表明体外培养条件对于潜在肿瘤启动子的正确评估至关重要。
