| Abstract | We have tested the hypothesis that the rapid stimulation of Na+/H+ exchange by epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a requirement for induction of mitogenesis. BALB/c 3T3 cells exposed for 4 hr at 37 degrees C to both EGF at 1 ng/ml and either 0.2-1 mM amiloride (an inhibitor of Na+/H+ exchange) or 10 microM MK-685 (an amiloride analog and more potent inhibitor of Na+/H+ exchange) incorporated no less [methyl-3H]thymidine during a 1-hr pulse 20 hr later than did cells exposed for 4 hr to EGF alone. Control experiments utilizing low external pH (to dissociate EGF from its receptor) and anti-EGF antibodies indicated that the failure of amiloride to inhibit mitogenesis when copresent with EGF during the first 4 hr was not due to incomplete removal of EGF and complete removal of amiloride at t4. Cells incubated with 200 microM amiloride for 24 hr showed nearly complete inhibition of stimulation by EGF. In comparison, cells incubated with 10 microM MK-685 for 24 hr showed only a slight inhibition of stimulation by EGF. Incubations with amiloride or MK-685 for shorter periods of time indicated that only amiloride inhibited mitogenesis and that this inhibition happened between 4 (t4) and 10(t10) hr after EGF addition, during which time increases in RNA and protein synthesis (required for mitogenesis) occurred. Amiloride inhibited both RNA and protein syntheses in intact cells during this prereplicative period, while MK-685 was without effect. We conclude that (i) inhibition of EGF-induced mitogenesis by amiloride is due not to inhibition of EGF-stimulated Na+/H+ exchange but rather to inhibition of necessary events occurring during the hours immediately prior to the onset of DNA synthesis, these events probably being RNA and protein synthesis and (ii) in cell culture medium buffered with CO2/HCO3-, complete inhibition of EGF-stimulated Na+/H+ exchange does not inhibit EGF-induced mitogenesis and, thus, stimulation of Na+/H+ exchange is not necessary for induction of mitogenesis by EGF. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
