pubmed:abstractText |
BSC-1 cells grow slowly, to high cell density, in medium with 0.1% calf serum. An increase in the serum concentration increases both the growth rate of the cells and the final cell density. The serum can be replaced to some extent by epidermal growth factor (EGF). Initiation of DNA synthesis in BSC-1 cells that have spread into a "wound" in a crowded cell layer requires the addition of a trace of serum or EGF, if the cells have previously been deprived of serum. The binding of 125I-labeled EGF to low-density and high-density BSC-1 cells has been studied. Binding is faster to low-density cells. Cells at low cell density also bind much more EGF per cell than cells at high cell density. The fraction of bound 125I-labeled EGF that is present on the cell surface as intact EGF is larger at low than at high cell density. The results indicate that the number of available EGF receptors per cell decreases drastically as the cell density increases. It is suggested that a decrease in the number of available EGF receptor sites per cell, and the accompanying decrease in sensitivity of the cells to EGF, contributes to density-dependent regulation of growth of these cells.
