The phorbol ester tumor promotor 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) specifically inhibited the binding of radioiodinated epidermal growth factor (125I-EGF) to rat pheochromocytoma (PC12) cells in a noncompetitive fashion with an apparent Ki of 11-26 nM. Both TPA and EGF elicited similar biological responses in PC12 cells including enhanced incorporation of 3H-choline and 32 P-orthophosphate into macromolecules, induction of ornithine decarboxylase, and stimulation of the phosphorylation of a 30,000 MW nonhistone, chromosome-associated protein. These effects were also elicited by nerve growth fact (NGF) which, in contrast to the former agents, is a differentiating stimulus for PC12 cells. The effects of TPA were additive or more than additive to the effects of NGF and EGF. When PC12 cells were induced to differentiate by treatment with NGF for 72 hours, the binding of 125I-EGF and responses to EGF were reduced by approximately 70%. The response of PC12 cells to the tumor promoter TPA was unaffected by treatment with NGF. Thus, the qualitatively similar effects of TPA and EGF seemed to be mediated through separate receptor systems with only the EGF receptor system reduced by NGF treatment.
