Interaction of receptors for insulin-like growth factor I, platelet-derived growth factor, and fibroblast growth factor in rat aortic cells. 1987

Serum contains various growth factors which regulate the proliferation of cells. We investigated the growth of cultured arterial smooth muscle cells under the influence of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF I), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), and examined the effect of these growth factors on the binding of [125I] IGF I and on the binding of [125I]PDGF to these cells. IGF I, FGF, and PDGF stimulated [6-3H]thymidine incorporation into DNA of confluent cultures of cells which were incubated in modified Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium. However, the effect of these growth factors on DNA synthesis was much more potent in Dulbecco's modified Eagle medium with 1% fetal calf serum. FGF and PDGF potentiated the growth-promoting effect of IGF I. The binding of [125I]IGF I to the cells was increased after a preincubation with FGF and PDGF. The binding was potently increased by FGF (100 ng/ml) after a preincubation time of 30 min. There was an increase in binding during the first 3 h of preincubation followed by a decrease after 4-5 h. PDGF (10-1000 ng/ml) stimulated [125I]IGF I binding only after 2 h of preincubation. The stimulation was dose dependent. Maximal stimulation of the binding was observed after 3 h of preincubation followed by a decrease after 4-5 h of preincubation. Specific binding sites for PDGF on smooth muscle cells could be demonstrated too. A preincubation of confluent cells with IGF I caused a dose-dependent increase in [125I]PDGF binding. These results support the hypothesis that the regulation of the binding of a specific growth factor by a second growth factor is important for the control of cell growth.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007334 Insulin-Like Growth Factor I A well-characterized basic peptide believed to be secreted by the liver and to circulate in the blood. It has growth-regulating, insulin-like, and mitogenic activities. This growth factor has a major, but not absolute, dependence on GROWTH HORMONE. It is believed to be mainly active in adults in contrast to INSULIN-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR II, which is a major fetal growth factor.

D010982 Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Mitogenic peptide growth hormone carried in the alpha-granules of platelets. It is released when platelets adhere to traumatized tissues. Connective tissue cells near the traumatized region respond by initiating the process of replication. Platelet Derived Growth Factor,Factor, Platelet-Derived Growth,Growth Factor, Platelet-Derived
D011956 Receptors, Cell Surface Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.

D011972 Receptor, Insulin A cell surface receptor for INSULIN. It comprises a tetramer of two alpha and two beta subunits which are derived from cleavage of a single precursor protein. The receptor contains an intrinsic TYROSINE KINASE domain that is located within the beta subunit. Activation of the receptor by INSULIN results in numerous metabolic changes including increased uptake of GLUCOSE into the liver, muscle, and ADIPOSE TISSUE.

D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D005346 Fibroblast Growth Factors A family of small polypeptide growth factors that share several common features including a strong affinity for HEPARIN, and a central barrel-shaped core region of 140 amino acids that is highly homologous between family members. Although originally studied as proteins that stimulate the growth of fibroblasts this distinction is no longer a requirement for membership in the fibroblast growth factor family.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
