Recently several endogenous epidermal growth factor (EGF)-family growth factors (transforming growth factor-alpha, amphiregulin, and heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor) have been identified in human keratinocytes. These factors are known to play an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation. Here we show that the interaction between these factors and EGF receptor are key factors in the progression from the G1 phase to the S phase (the G1/S progression) in human keratinocytes. In this study, human keratinocytes were cultured in serum-free MCDB153 medium and then partially synchronized by isoleucine deprivation. After synchronization, the number of S phase cells increased and reached a maximum after 18-24 h. The immediate addition of anti-EGF receptor blocking antibody (1 microg per ml) to synchronized cells decreased S phase cells by 42.5% compared with untreated keratinocytes at 18 h. By contrast, the addition of anti-EGF receptor antibodies at 12 h or later did not alter the percentage of S phase cells. Northern blot analysis of synchronized cells demonstrated that mRNA expression of transforming growth factor-alpha, amphiregulin, heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor, and EGF receptor reached a maximum within 0.5-3 h after synchronization, when many cells initiated progression from the G1 to the S phase. The results show that anti-EGF receptor antibodies block the G1/S progression and the rapid increase of mRNA expression of endogenous EGF-family growth factors and EGF receptor during G1/S progression. These findings indicate that growth factor binding and EGF receptor activation are involved in the G1/S cell cycle progression of human keratinocytes.
