The failure of the C3H/10T1/2 cell transformation system to respond to numerous known carcinogens has limited its applications for the detection and study of cancer-causing substances. Recent studies have found, however, that some carcinogens function as initiating agents for the process of transformation in these cells. Treatment with such agents is generally not sufficient to transform low-density asynchronous cultures of C3H/10T1/2 cells, but morphologic transformation will occur if such cultures are subsequently exposed to the potent tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA). In the present study, the ability of TPA to enhance transformation was examined in cultures treated with a variety of chemical agents. The addition of TPA after chemical treatment enhanced the transformation of these cells by methylmethanesulfonate, ethylmethanesulfonate, N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, N-nitrosomethylurea, N-nitrosoethylurea, mitomycin C, 5-fluorodeoxyuridine, and 5-azacytidine. Treatment with amethopterin or benzo(e)pyrene did not produce significant numbers of foci in the presence or absence of TPA. TPA inhibited transformation by high concentrations of 3-methylcholanthrene and benzo(a)pyrene. Thus, numerous carcinogens function as initiating agents for these cells and the presence of TPA can dramatically increase the sensitivity of this cell transformation system.
