title: Studies on the cell-cycle dependency of the actions of insulin-like growth factor-I in Balb/c 3T3 cells.
abstract: The present study was conducted to determine the cell-cycle dependency of various actions of IGF-I in Balb/c 3T3 cells. When autophosphorylation of the IGF-I receptor was determined in [32P]-labelled cells, IGF-I increased radioactivity in a 100 K-Da phosphoprotein, presumably beta-subunit of the IGF-I receptor, both in quiescent and in primed competent cells. Likewise, IGF-I stimulated uptake of [3H]deoxyglucose independent of the cell cycle. In contrast, IGF-I increased calcium entry, radioactivity in [3H]diacylglycerol, and [3H]thymidine incorporation in primed competent cells while these reactions were not induced by IGF-I in quiescent cells. The latter three reactions were attenuated when cells were pretreated with pertussis toxin. These results indicate that some, but not all, of the actions of IGF-I are dependent on the cell cycle in Balb/c 3T3 cells. They also suggest that a pertussis-toxin-sensitive G protein may be involved in the cell-cycle-dependent actions of IGF-I.
