Modulation by Interleukin-2 of Cellular Response to Fibroblast Growth Factor-1 in F69-3 Fibrosarcoma Cells
FGF-1 stimulated DNA synthesis and induced expression of IL-2 receptors in the murine fibrosarcoma cell line, F69-3. Concomitant treatment with IL-2 abolished the stimulation of DNA synthesis, but not binding of FGF-1 to the FGF-receptors or subsequent endocytosis of the bound growth factor. Also, i...

Summary: | FGF-1 stimulated DNA synthesis and induced expression of IL-2 receptors in the murine fibrosarcoma cell line, F69-3. Concomitant treatment with IL-2 abolished the stimulation of DNA synthesis, but not binding of FGF-1 to the FGF-receptors or subsequent endocytosis of the bound growth factor. Also, it did not inhibit activation of the FGF-receptor tyrosine kinase or stimulation of the downstream effector, MAP kinase. Treatment with IL-2 prevented transport of FGF-1 to the nuclear fraction in a time- and dose-dependent manner that parallelled the inhibition of FGF-1 stimulated DNA synthesis. The data support our earlier finding that transport of FGF-1 to the nucleus is an important event in the mechanism of stimulation of DNA synthesis induced by the growth factor, and they demonstrate that treatment with a cytokine can modulate the cellular response to FGF-1. |
