Previous studies have demonstrated that when cells of the mouse osteoblastic cell line MC3T3-E1 are exposed to IGF-I and IGF-II they exhibit rapid and transient induction of the transcript from the proto-oncogene c-fos [8]. To clarify the relationship between induction of cell proliferation and proto-oncogene expression in MC3T3-E1 cells, the acute affects of IGF-I and IGF-II, growth factors that stimulate cell proliferation, and of TGF-beta 1, which inhibits cell proliferation, northern analyses with cDNA-derived probes for the proto-oncogenes c-jun, jun-B, and jun-D were undertaken. Concurrent northern analyses with a probe for c-fos extended our previous results to include the effect of TGF-beta 1 on c-fos. IGF-I does not induce the c-jun, jun-B, or jun-D transcripts, the former and latter being produced at detectable levels constitutively. After 1 hour of exposure to IGF-II the c-jun transcript response ranges from onefold to 13-fold and the jun-D transcript response ranges around two-fold. After 1 hour of exposure to TGF-beta 1, the jun-B transcript response ranges from eightfold to 24-fold, the c-fos transcript response ranges between sixfold and sevenfold. The differences observed in the magnitude and kinetics of the induction provoked by these growth factors is consistent with the presence of a regulatory circuit acting through the Jun family members which may act to stimulate transcription differentially when bound to DNA either as homodimers or, with Fos family proteins, as heterodimers.
