title: The synergistic interaction of hydrocortisone and dibutyryl cyclic AMP during enzyme induction in hybrids between rat C6 glioma cells and FU5AH hepatoma cells.
abstract: The hormone-responsive enzymes tyrosine aminotransferase and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase were studied with respect to current models of the mechanism of glucocorticoid/cAMP interaction during the induction of enzyme activity in responsive cell hybrids between rat C6 glioma cells and rat FU5AH hepatoma cells. The results of experiments involving protein and mRNA synthesis inhibitors, sequential addition of inducers, and the assay of cyclic-AMP-dependent protein kinase could not be adequately explained by any one model of inducer interaction. Comparison of the hybrid clones revealed the presence of factors that may modify induction but that are not essential for synergistic induction.
