Effect of Staphylococcus aureus delta toxin on Chinese hamster ovary cell morphology and Y-1 adrenal cell morphology and steroidogenesis.
Since Staphylococcus aureus delta toxin previously had been shown to increase the cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) content of guinea pig ileum, the effect of delta toxin on such cAMP-mediated responses as morphogenesis and steroidogenesis in cultured tissue cells was examined. In contrast to cholera toxin, delta toxin did not cause spindling of Chinese hamster ovary cells. Unlike adr...
متن کاملThe Effect of Cell-to-cell Contact on the Surface Morphology of Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells
In the previous report (Porter et al., in this issue) morphological changes in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells during the cell cycle were described. In this report we describe the role of intercellular contact on these changes. We find that intercellular contact is required for cells to exhibit the morphologies Porter et al. described for S and G(2). When cells are synchronized by mitotic sel...
متن کاملRole of the A subunit of pertussis toxin in alteration of Chinese hamster ovary cell morphology.
The mechanism by which pertussis toxin induces morphological changes in Chinese hamster ovary cells was studied to determine whether the resulting clustered growth pattern is due to toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation of a cellular substrate. While pertussis toxin was extremely potent in inducing morphological changes in Chinese hamster ovary cells, preparations of isolated A subunit or B oligomer...
متن کاملPropranolol induced chromosomal aberrations in Chinese hamster ovary cell line
Propranolol (PL), a non-selective beta-blocker, is a cardiovascular drug widely used to treat hypertension. The present study was concerned with assessing the cytogenetic effects of this drug on Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line. MTT assay was then carried out to determine the cytotoxicity index (IC50) of the drug. The IC50 value of PL was 0.43±0.02 mM. To investigate the clastogenic effect...
متن کاملChanges in Surface Morphology of Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells during the Cell Cycle
Synchronized populations of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells in confluent culture have been examined by scanning electron microscopy and their surface changes noted as the cells progress through the cycle. During G(1) it is characteristic for cells to show large numbers of microvilli, blebs, and ruffles. Except for the ruffles, these tend to diminish in prominence during S and the cells become...
