We examined the differential effects of the H-ras oncogene and the K-ras oncogene on cisplatin sensitivity in murine NIH/3T3 cells transfected with these oncogenes. Although the NIH/3T3 cells transformed with H-ras oncogenes (EJ-NIH/3T3 and Ha8-21) showed an increased resistance to cisplatin compared to the parental NIH/3T3, the cell lines transformed with K-ras oncogenes (DT and 1,8DNP2-2-5) did not. Compared with NIH/3T3, the 2 H-ras transformants reduced both the accumulation of cisplatin and the Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in the membrane fraction. On the other hand, we observed no significant difference in cellular accumulation of cisplatin or in Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity between parental NIH/3T3 and the K-ras transformants. Since these ras transformants did not affect the cellular metallothionein content, transcriptional level of DNA polymerase beta or activity of glutathione-S-transferase which is not associated with cisplatin sensitivity, these results suggest that cisplatin resistance is brought about by the H-ras oncogene, but not by K-ras, and that induction of cisplatin resistance by H-ras is mainly due to a reduction of cisplatin accumulation and an impairment of Na+,K(+)-ATPase activity in the membrane fraction.
