We have attempted to reverse the transformed phenotype of cells expressing the H-ras oncogene. A plasmid in which the first exon of the H-ras oncogene was coupled to the SV40 early promoter in an anti-sense orientation was constructed. This construct was introduced into a clone of H-ras-transformed NIH/3T3 cells. Simultaneous expression of both the SV40 anti-sense construct and H-ras was observed. Anti-sense RNA was present in a 10-20-fold excess over sense H-ras RNA. Only a small fraction of the cytoplasmic RNA was present in a sense: anti-sense duplexed form. The expression of anti-sense H-ras RNA was not accompanied by a phenotypic reversion of transformed cells. The only phenotypic reversion we observed was accompanied by a loss of transfected H-ras sequences. The loss of transfected H-ras sequences occurs with a high frequency in cells supertransfected with the SV40 anti-sense construct.
