title: Prolactin differentially affects bacterial toxin-induced ADP-ribosylation of Nb2 lymphoma cell membrane proteins.
abstract: Exposure of lactogen-dependent Nb2 lymphoma cells to prolactin for up to 72 hr caused time- and dose-dependent changes in the ability of specific 38 kDa and 41.5 kDa membrane proteins from these cells to be subsequently ADP-ribosylated by pertussis and cholera toxins, respectively. Whereas the sensitivity of the 41.5 kDa substrate to cholera toxin was already reduced after 1 hour, that of the 38 kDa substrate for cholera toxin was increased for up to 72 hours. These findings suggest that membrane G-proteins may mediate the effects of prolactin binding to its receptor, leading to the proliferation of Nb2 lymphoma cells.
