Transformation appears to involve autocrine stimulation as IGF-I production and secretion is increased in normal cells following transformation by SV40 T antigen, but the null cells cannot respond to the IGF-I so do not transform.
Treatment with antagonistic peptide analogs of IGF-I, antisense oligos, or an adenovirus expressing IGF-IR antisense cRNA, prevents proliferation of cells in monolayers, transformation, and growth in athymic nude mice.
Initially, we tested Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells that had been stably transfected with expression vectors for kinase-inactive or wild type IGF-I receptors [ 53 ] . The parental CHO cell line expresses ~50,000 endogenous IGF-IRs, the transfected wild-type (CHO-WT) cell line expresses ~250,000 IGF-IRs, and the kinase-defective (CHO-MK) cell line expresses ~250,000 mutant IGF-IRs.
We assessed the ability of the IGF-IRs of each cell line to undergo autophosphorylation in response to increasing concentrations of IGF-I.
Cells were stimulated with IGF-I at the indicated concentrations for 18 h.
