title: Lack of correlation between TPA-induced prostaglandin biosynthesis and ornithine decarboxylase activity in Balb/c mouse 3T3 fibroblasts.
abstract: 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) induced in Balb/c 3T3 cells an earliest prostaglandin biosynthesis and an ornithine decarboxylase activation, this time-relation being more evident if serum was added to incubation medium in low concentration (0.2%). However the two TPA-induced events can be almost totally dissociated by pharmacological means, such as indomethacin and calcium-ionophore A23187 which affected PG response to TPA, but did not influence ODC induction.
