Control of cell mobility by cyclic AMP.

W E Katzin, H Gershman

    Journal of Cell Science
    |January 1, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Cellular cyclic AMP levels influence cell mobility. Elevated cyclic AMP generally suppresses movement, with variations observed across different cell types and developmental stages, impacting cell aggregation and migration.

    Area of Science:

    • Cell Biology
    • Biochemistry
    • Molecular Biology

    Background:

    • Previous research indicated that agents increasing intracellular cyclic AMP (cAMP) suppress cell movement.
    • Understanding the endogenous cAMP concentration's role in cell mobility is crucial for cell behavior studies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the relationship between endogenous cyclic AMP concentrations and cell mobility across various cell types.
    • To examine how cAMP levels change in different cell lines, including normal and virally transformed cells, and during development.

    Main Methods:

    • Measurement of intracellular cyclic AMP concentrations in Balb/c 3T3, SVT-2, NIL B, SV40-transformed NIL B, tumor-derived cells, and chick embryo ventricle cells.
    • Analysis of cAMP levels under various culture conditions, including cell aggregation and drug treatments (dibutyryl cAMP and theophylline).

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Correlation of cAMP levels with observed cell mobility and developmental changes.
  • Main Results:

    • Balb/c 3T3 cells showed transient cAMP elevation in aggregates, while highly mobile SVT-2 cells had initially low but later increased cAMP levels.
    • NIL B cells and their transformed counterparts, along with tumor cell lines, exhibited no significant variation in average intracellular cAMP.
    • Chick embryo ventricle cell cAMP concentrations decreased with development, correlating with reduced cell mobility; drug treatment significantly elevated cAMP.

    Conclusions:

    • Endogenous cyclic AMP levels play a role in regulating cell mobility, with distinct patterns observed in different cell types and during development.
    • The study provides evidence supporting the inverse relationship between cAMP and cell movement, particularly in specific contexts like embryonic development.
