title: Release of H2O2 and phosphorylation of 30 kilodalton proteins as early responses of cell cycle-dependent inhibition of DNA synthesis by transforming growth factor beta 1.
abstract: Transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) and H2O2 both inhibited DNA synthesis of mouse osteoblastic (MC3T3) cells in the late G1 phase of the cell cycle. TGF-beta 1 stimulated cells to release H2O2 in the late G1 phase, but not in the G0 phase, even though TGF-beta 1 receptors were present in both phases. The inhibition of DNA synthesis caused by TGF-beta 1 was partly decreased by the addition of catalase. TGF-beta 1 and H2O2 increased the phosphorylation of the same proteins with a molecular weight of 30,000 in cells in the late G1 phase, and the increase by TGF-beta 1 was abolished at least partly by catalase. The results suggest that H2O2 is one of the mediators of inhibition of DNA synthesis by TGF-beta 1.
