SV40 large T-antigen (LTa) gene-induced immortalized rat dopamine-producing nerve cells (1RB3AN27), which produce LTa protein and divide in vitro, do not divide and do not produce LTa protein when transplanted into striatum of adult rats. This suggests the presence of LTa gene-inhibiting factors in brain. Here we report that rat brain soluble fraction (SF) contains factors which specifically inhibit LTa gene activity in vitro. The brain SF inhibited LTa protein levels and the growth of 1RB3AN27cells and 2RSG cells (LTa gene-induced immortalized rat parotid acinar cells) in vitro, but it stimulated the growth of spontaneously immortalized human parotid acinar cells (2HPC8) and had no effect on the proliferation of murine neuroblastoma cells (NBP2) and rat glioma cells (C-6) in culture. In contrast, the liver SF inhibited the growth of all cell lines tested at varying degrees and thus lacked specificity with respect to LTa gene activity. The presence of specific LTa gene-inhibiting factors in the brain and general tumor growth-inhibiting factors in the liver may provide some of the mechanisms of protection against in vivo carcinogenesis.
