    Notes: Metastatic variants of the B16 melanoma displaying high experimental metastatic potential have been shown to express high levels of a 72,000-dalton glycoprotein (Met-72) on their cell surface (Kimura AK, Xiang J: J Nat Can Inst 76:1247-1253, 1986). Monoclonal antibodies (MoAb) directed against the Met-72 determinant have been used in this study as immunohistochemical reagents on preparations of fresh B16 melanoma tumors and their metastases. These immunohistochemical analyses have utilized frozen sections, impression smears, and cytospin preparations of fresh tumors harvested at various time points during tumor growth, to view the presence and location of Met-72-positive metastatic variants within tumor masses. Biotinylated anti-Met-72 MoAbs were reacted with freshly dissociated tumor cells from a B16 melanoma ovarian metastasis. These cells were then reacted with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-streptavidin and analyzed by flow cytometry. A discrete population of positively staining cells was detected and isolated by cell sorting techniques. Met-72-positivc cells were then cloned and reanalyzed after several weeks of in vitro expansion and found to have high experimental metastatic potential to ovaries. Frozen sections of subcutaneous tumors and their metastases were analyzed by immunoperoxidase techniques. A consistent finding in these studies has been that the few tumor cells which showed high intensity of Met-72 staining were positioned perivascularly and at the invading front of B16 melanoma tumors.

    Notes: Four temperature-sensitive mutants of rat 3Y1 fibroblasts belonging to separate complementation groups (3Y1tsD123, 3Y1tsF121, 3Y1tsG125, and 3Y1tsH203) are arrested mainly with a 2C DNA content, when cells proliferating at 33.8°C are shifted up to 39.8°C (Ohno et al., 1984). Zaitsu and Kimura (submitted for publication) showed that 3Y1tsF121 cells synchronized in the early S phase were arrested with a 4C DNA content at 39.8°C. We studied the traverse through the S and G2 phases at 39.8°C in the four ts mutants synchronized at the early S phase and found that 3Y1tsG125 and 3Y1tsH203 cells were arrested with a 4C DNA content as 3Y1tsF121, while 3Y1tsD123 cells went through S and G2 phases and underwent mitosis. When 3Y1tsF121 and 3Y1tsG125 mutants arrested at 39.8°C were shifted down to 33.8°C, a substantial fraction of the cells with a 4C DNA content started, with a certain lag period, DNA synthesis without intervening mitosis and underwent the first mitosis with a lag period similar to that in the cells arrested with a 2C DNA content. The tetraploid cells thus generated had a proliferating ability lower than that of diploid cells.

    Notes: When randomly proliferating rat 3Y1 fibroblasts were treated with sodium butyrate, more than 90% of their cells were arrested reversibly with a 2C DNA content at least 12 h before the G1/S boundary. When cells synchronized in the early S phase were treated with butyrate, approximately 70% of all cells were arrested with a 4C DNA content. The arrests in both G1 and G2 phases by the single inhibitor suggest that the two phases share a common mechanism. The ability of cells to undergo mitosis on time was quickly lost with time of arrest in the G2 phase. Upon removal of the inhibitor, the cells arrested with a 4C DNA content entered a new S phase without intervening mitosis. The tetraploid cells thus produced kept proliferating as fast as diploid cells. These results suggest that the inhibition of the normal G2 traverse is somehow responsible for the formation of the proliferative polyploid cells.

    Notes: Metallothionein (MT) synthesis in rabbit kidney-derived RK-13 cells was studied. In response to Cd2+, RK-13 cells synthesized proteins closely similar in chromatographic and electrophoretic behaviors to the liver MTs induced in Cd2+ -injected rabbit. These proteins were specifically immunoprecipitated by anti-mouse liver MT-II serum. The rate of RK-13 thionein (apoprotein of Mt) synthesis rapidly increased after exposure to 1μg/ml of Cd2+, and reached the maximum in 7 h. The dose-response curve for the synthesis was biphasic; a sharp increase up to 0.5 μg/ml Cd2+ and a slower increase at higher concentrations. RK-13 cells retained kidney-specific properties in terms of responsiveness of thionein synthesis to inducers; The MTs were inducible also by Zn2+ and probably by Hg2+, but not by dexamethasone. This system would therefore be a useful model in vitro for studying the regulation of MT synthesis in kidney cells.

    Notes: We studied the effect of sodium butyrate, a potent G1/G2-arresting agent, on actin distribution in rat 3Y1 fibroblasts in monolayer culture by fluorescence microscopy of cells stained with 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1, 3-diazole phallacidine (NBD-Ph). When randomly proliferating cells were arrested mainly in G1 phase with butyrate, a reversible overaccumulation of cellular net protein occurred. In the G1-arrested cells, actin markedly accumulated at the margin of cells, and a network structure of actin stress fibers appeared. When density-arrested cells were replated sparsely and rearrested in the G1, early S, and G2 phases with butyrate or hydroxyurea, the actin network was observed extensively in the cells arrested in the G1 and G2 phases with butyrate. These results agree with our previous results indicating the existence of some physiological similarity between cells in the G1 and G2 phases and suggest that actin distribution somehow depends on the phases of the cell cycle. The actin profiles observed by the NBD-Ph staining were confirmed by transmission electronmicroscopy (TEM) of negatively stained whole cells. TEM further revealed that electron-dense amorphous materials were present at crossing points in the network but rarely present on interconnecting microfilament bundles.

    Notes: The study of induction of Friend erythroleukemic cell lines during the last decade has enriched our understanding of late erythroid differentiation. In comparison, little information is available on early erythroid differentiation. We describe here the isolation and characterization of a highly inducible clone from a murine erythroid cell line, which is capable of forming colonies that possess properties of the early erythroid burst progenitor. We found that a combination of erythropoietin (Epo), spleen conditioned medium (SCM), and plasma from a patient with aplastic anemia (Apa) induces over 95% of cells from this clone (clone 12) to form colonies with the properties of burst or mixed burst blast-like colonies. Examination of the culture conditions of these cells indicated that alpha medium was more efficient for colony induction than Iscove's medium, and that the addition of two-mercaptoethanol did not improve the induction process. These factors (EPo, SCM, and Apa) must be present for 4 days in order for induction to take place. It is hoped that the isolation of this highly inducible cell clone will enrich our understanding of early erythroid differentiation.

    Notes: Primary rat embryo cells were transformed by a tsA mutant (tsA640) of simian virus 40 (SV40). Proliferation of all four independent diploid transformants was suppressed at a nonpermissive temperature (40.3°C), being accompanied by a marked increase in the fraction of cells with a 4N DNA content (a 4N peak in the flow cytofluorogram). However, in this case, the fraction of cells with a 2N DNA content (a 2N peak in the flow cytofluorogram) was preserved. Both effects (suppression of proliferation and increase in the 4N peak) diminished when transformed cells were superinfected with wild-type SV40. The increased 4N peak was preserved, albeit not completely, for at least 24 hours, when cells were further incubated in the presence of hydroxyurea at the nonpermissive temperature. On the other hand, the preserved 2N peak all but disappeared within 24 hours, when cells were further incubated in the presence of colcemid at the nonpermissive temperature. These results suggest that the thermolabile large T antigen of SV40 directly or indirectly induces an accumulation of cells with a 4N DNA content, at the nonpermissive temperature, by prolonging the G2 (and/or late S) period.

    Notes: Mouse macrophages transformed by a temperature-sensitive mutant (tsA640) of simian virus 40 (SV40) were examined by immunofluorescence microscopy for fibronectin expression and actin distribution. Resting cultures of tsA640 transformants incubated at a temperature nonpermissive for SV40 large T antigen (39.0°C) exhibited phagocytic activity and did not exhibit cellular fibronectin and actin cables, like primary cultures of resident macrophages. When the resting cultures were sparsely seeded and shifted down to the permissive temperature of 33.0°C, expression of large T antigen in the nucleus, expression of fibronectin in the cytoplasm, and cellular entry into S phase occurred in that temporal order, followed by actin cable formation, cellular proliferation, and diminishment of phagocytic activity. The expression of T antigen and fibronectin was sensitive to actinomycin D and cycloheximide. The expression of fibronectin was insensitive to inhibitors of DNA synthesis, whereas the expression of actin cables was sensitive. These results suggest that SV40 T antigen leads macrophages to express fibronectin and actin cables, as well as resumption of cell proliferation, and that entry into S phase is not required for fibronectin expression but may be required for actin cable formation.
