title: Stimulation of macromolecular synthesis by endotoxin-treated 3T6 fibroblasts.
abstract: The interaction of endotoxin with cultured fibroblasts resulted in a depression of cellular proliferation and an increased synthesis of macromolecules, namely collagenous and non-collagenous proteins. The collagen salt-soluble fraction was increased at the expense of the insoluble fraction, and both the salt-soluble fraction and collagen secreted into the medium was underhydroxylated.
