Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) is a pluripotent modulator of cell function and an important suppressor of cervical epithelial cell proliferation. In the present study, we examine the effects of TGFβ1 on the level and activity of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in HPV-16 immortalized cervical epithelial cells. In ECE16-1 cells, increased EGFR levels are observed within 24 h after initiation of TGFβ1 treatment and levels continue to increase with time. This increase is correlated with a TGFβ1-dependent decrease in proliferation rate. Scatchard analysis indicates that the population of EGFR sites induced by TGFβ1 have a low affinity for EGF (Kd= 4.08 nM) compared to the receptors present prior to TGFβ1 treatment (Kd= 0.3 and 1.6 nM). TGFβ1 treatment also reduces EGFR kinase autophosphorylation activity. Cell cycle studies indicate that TGFβ1-treated cells arrest in the G1 phase of the cell cycle and that regulation of EGFR level was independent of cell cycle stage in both TGFβ1-treated and untreated cells. However, EGFR level was related to the G1 phase time. Parallel studies indicate that a TGFβ1-dependent increase in p53 level is also correlated with increased time spent in G1. These results suggest that TGFβ1 inhibition of ECE16-1 cell proliferation may act both by the replacement of high affinity/high kinase activity EGFR sites with low affinity/low kinase activity EGFR sites and a p53-mediated cell cycle arrest.
