Abstract	Inhibition of growth and DNA synthesis was observed in WI 38 cells incubated with 8-methylthioadenosine 3′:5′-cyclic monophosphate or prostaglandin E1. The effect of both compounds on cell growth was reversible. On removal of these compounds from culture media the cells initiated DNA synthesis and divided. In addition, prostaglandin E1 stimulated cyclic AMP formation in these cells to over 40 times the normal basal value. The increase in cyclic AMP concentration in WI 38 cells after addition of prostaglandin E1 showed a marked variation. Cells that had recently been treated with trypsin and plated at a lower cell density exhibited a smaller response to addition of prostaglandin E1 than cells that had divided and reached confluence.
