Production of platelet-derived growth factor-like molecules and reduced expression of platelet-derived growth factor receptors accompany transformation by a wide spectrum of agents.
A series of nontransformed human and murine cells and derivative cell lines transformed by methylcholanthrene; by simian virus 40, Kirsten and Moloney murine sarcoma viruses, simian sarcoma virus, and adenovirus; and by a "spontaneous" event in culture were examined for the expression of receptors for the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and for production of substances able to compete wit...
متن کاملPlatelet-derived growth factor.
Platelet-derived growth factor was purified from fresh platelets by a large-scale procedure not involving the use of SDS (sodium dodecyl sulphate). The product, 0.5 mg of platelet-derived growth factor, obtained from about 3 x 1013 platelets migrated as a single component in analytical gel electrophoresis in the presence of SDS and showed no inhomogeneity on sedimentation-equilibrium analysis i...
متن کاملSignal transduction by the receptors for platelet-derived growth factor.
Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a connective tissue cell mitogen that originally was purified from human platelets, but recently has been found to be produced by many different cell types (reviewed by Ross et al. 1986; Heldin and Westermark, 1989). The in vivo function of PDGF remains speculative, but the fact that PDGF is released by platelets and by cells involved in the inflammatory...
متن کاملCharacterization of platelet-derived growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor receptor expression in asbestos-induced rat mesothelioma.
Although altered expression of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a hallmark of human mesothelioma, expression of PDGF receptors has not been characterized in this cell type. In addition, the expression of this growth factor and its cognate receptor in rodent mesothelioma has not been investigated. In this study, examination of transformed mesothelial cells derived from asbestos-induced r...
متن کاملSelective Upregulation of Platelet-derived Growth Factor c~ Receptors by Transforming Growth Factor/~ in Scleroder Fibroblasts
Transforming growth factor B (TGF-~), a multifunctional cytokine, is an indirect mitogen for human fibroblasts through platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), particularly the A ligand-c~ receptor arm of that system. TGF-~ effects on PDGF ot receptor expression were studied in vitro using ligand binding techniques in three human dermal fibroblast strains: newborn foreskin, adult skin, and sclero...
