We describe malignant transformation of cultured rat intestinal epithelial cells (IEC-18) by transfection with activated human H-ras gene cloned from the EJ bladder carcinoma. Transformed cells showed a marked morphological change, expressed high levels of the transfected H-ras gene, were able to grow in agar and expressed antigenic markers identical with parental IEC-18 cells. When injected into syngeneic rats these cells formed rapidly growing tumors expressing the same intestinal-specific antigenic markers as the injected cells. Parallel to the high expression of H-ras mRNA in the transformants we document overexpression of rat .alpha.-TGF mRNA.
