We have isolated NIH-3T3 cell lines overexpressing the nuclear 24-kDa isoform of fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 and characterized its regulatory effect on the expression of interleukin-6 (IL-6) in these cells. The clone pRF5 expressing the highest level was able to grow in 1% serum medium to a high saturation density and acquired a radioresistance advantage. In pRF5 and another clone pRF1, IL-6 RNA levels mere markedly increased. Studies with IL-6 promoter constructs revealed that IL-6 gene up-regulation occurred at the transcriptional level and did not involve the AP-1 binding site. Exogenously added 18-kDa isoform of FGF-2 (100 ng/ml) produced down-regulation of IL-6 involving an AP-1 binding site, thus suggesting a receptor-independent pathway for the intracellular 24-kDa isoform.
