Description:
In density-arrested monolayer cultures of Balb/c 3T3 cells, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) stimulates expression of the c-myc and c-fos proto-oncogenes, as well as the functionally uncharacterized genes, JE, KC, and JB. These genes are not coordinately regulated. Under ordinary conditions, c-fos, JE, KC, and JB respond to PDGF only when the cells are in a state of G0 growth arrest at the time of PDGF addition. The c-myc gene is regulated in opposition to the other genes, responding best to PDGF in cycling cultures.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rollins, B J -- Morrison, E D -- Stiles, C D -- CA 20042-09/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- GM 31489-04/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1987 Nov 27;238(4831):1269-71.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Division of Medicine, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA 02115.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/3685976" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
