Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) caused a rapid and dose-dependent increase in cAMP levels, followed by elevation of c-myc mRNA levels and then increased DNA synthesis in quiescent cultures of Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts. The dose-response curves of PGE1 were nearly the same for each of these three processes. Both 8-bromo-cAMP and forskolin increased c-myc mRNA levels to 40-50% and DNA synthesis to 70-80% of those caused by a maximally effective dose of PGE1. Under the comparable conditions, PGE1 did not stimulate diacylglycerol formation or activate protein kinase C. However, PGE1 did elevate cytoplasmic free Ca2+ concentration as measured with the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator quin 2. 8-Bromo-cAMP and forskolin were inactive in this capacity. The Ca2+ ionophore A23187 increased the level of c-myc mRNA. Diacylglycerol and Ca2+ mediate the elevation of c-myc mRNA levels which is caused by platelet-derived growth factor and fibroblast growth factor (Kaibuchi, K., Tsuda, T., Kikuchi, A., Tanimoto, T., Yamashita, T., and Takai, Y. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 1187-1192). In contrast, the present results suggest that both cAMP and Ca2+ are involved in this PGE1-induced response in Swiss 3T3 cells.
