Popis: | Either confluence or serum withdrawal may cause growth arrest of cultured non‐transformed cells. Here, we compared sparsely populated and confluent C3H10T1/2 cells with and without serum‐containing medium. The following proliferation‐relevant end points were examined: cell‐cycle distribution, Ki‐67 antigen presence, the level of the von Hippel‐Lindau (VHL) protein, and gene expression, determined using a microarray approach. In sparse/logarithmic cultures, the fraction of cells in G(0)/G(1) phase increased from 55 to 85% following serum withdrawal. Moreover, the fraction of Ki‐67 positive cells dropped from 89 to 47%. In confluent cultures, the majority of cells (80%) were in G(0)/G(1) phase and only 25–30% were Ki‐67 positive, regardless of serum presence. In both serum‐deprived and contact‐inhibited cultures, significant and distinct changes in gene expression were observed. Serum deprivation of sparsely cultured cells resulted in significant over‐expression of several transcription factors, while confluent cells showed elevated expression of genes coding for Wnt6, uPar, Tdag51, Egr1, Ini1a and Mor1. These results indicate that contact inhibition and serum withdrawal lead to cellular quiescence through distinct genetic and molecular mechanisms. |
