Induction of ornithine decarboxylase activity and DNA synthesis in hairless mouse epidermis by retinoids.

The ability of all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) and other retinoid derivatives to enhance DNA synthesis and to induce ornithine decarboxylase [L-ornithine carboxylyase; EC 4.1.1.17 (ODC)] activity has been investigated in normal and tape-stripped hairless mouse epidermis. Initial studies showed that the retinoids could inhibit the induction of epidermal ODC activity found 4.5 hr after tape strippin...

Effects of single applications of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, mezerein, or ethylphenylpropiolate on DNA synthesis and polyamine levels in hairless mouse epidermis.

Quantitative and qualitative changes in epidermal polyamine levels and DNA synthesis (specific activity and labeling index) after a single topical application of 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA), mezerein (MEZ), or ethylphenylpropiolate (EPP) in acetone were studied concomitantly in the same epidermal cell population from each treated mouse. The doses tested were 17 nmol of TPA; 1.7, ...

Epidermal pyridoxal 5'-phosphate depletion, inhibition of DNA synthesis, and inhibition of the expression of ornithine decarboxylase activity by the vitamin B-6 antagonist 4'-deoxypyridoxine.

The induction of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) activity may be an essential component of skin tumor promotion. ODC requires pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) as a cofactor. We have measured the epidermal PLP concentration and investigated its relationship to DNA synthesis and ODC activity in the hairless mouse. The epidermal PLP concentration was approximately 1.0 microgram/g. When tape-stripping wa...

Decrease of epidermal histidase activity by tumor-promoting phorbol esters.

The potent skin tumor promoter (12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) stimulates epidermal macromolecular synthesis as well as proliferation, but little is known of specific functional aberrations produced by TPA. This report presents results of a study on the effects of TPA on epidermal histidase (L-histidine ammonia lyase), an enzyme found in normal epidermis but not in dermis or in mou...

Decrease of Epidermal Histidase Activity by Tumor-promoting Phorboi Esters I

The potent skin tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) stimulates epidermal macromolecular synthesis as well as proliferation, but little is known of specific functional aberrations produced by TPA. This report presents results of a study on the effects of TPA on epidermal histidase (L-histidine ammonia iyase), an enzyme found in normal epidermis but not in dermis or in mouse...
