[DNA synthesis in the nuclei of stimulated NIH 3T3 cells in heterodikaryons obtained by the fusion of these cells with resting cells treated with cycloheximide].
Serum-deprived (0.2%) resting NIH 3T3 mouse fibroblasts preincubated with cycloheximide (7.5 micrograms/ml) were fused with stimulated cells taken 10 hours after changing the medium to the one containing 10% serum, and DNA synthesis was investigated in nuclei of heterodikaryons, homodikaryons, and monokaryons, using radioautography with double-labeling technique. Preincubation of resting cells with the inhibitor of protein synthesis cycloheximide for 4, 3, 2, but not for 1 or 0.5 hours abolishes their ability to suppress DNA synthesis in stimulated nuclei in heterodikaryons. Three hours after the removal of cycloheximide from the media, the resting cells acquire once again the inhibitory effect towards the entry of stimulated nuclei into the S-period. The data suggest that the resting cells may produce a labile endogenous inhibitor of cell proliferation, and support the idea on the active metabolic processes occurring in the resting cells.
