We demonstrated the presence of five species of the activin beta A mRNA in human placenta and one major RNA associated with two minor RNAs of the activin in the fetal membrane. We investigated the effect of 8-bromo-cAMP (8-Br-cAMP) on accumulation of activin beta A subunit mRNA in human fibrosarcoma HT1080 cells. Although low levels of the activin mRNA were detectable in the untreated cells, the one main RNA species was predominantly accumulated by 8-Br-cAMP. We propose that generation of multiple activin mRNAs in the fetal membrane and cAMP-treated HT1080 cells is presumably due to a cell-specific alternative polyadenylation.
