Despite their familiar sensitivity to transformation by dominant-actingrasoncogenes, NIH/3T3 cells carry arassuppressor. When tested by cell fusion they were able to suppress the anchorage-independent phenotype of both mouse and human cells transformed by activated H-rasor N-ras. This suppression occurred without a decrease in expression of the activatedrasoncogene.Ras-transformed NIH/3T3 clones cured of their oncogene by benzamide treatment reverted to a non-transformed phenotype, but had lost the ability to suppress otherrastransformants, indicating that their initial transformation was accompanied by suppressor loss. In hamster cells an activerasoncogene increased the rate of chromosome segregation by >100-fold. These results suggest thatin vitrotransformation of NIH/3T3 cells byrasmay be more similar to multistepin vivotumor development than previously suspected, involving not only expression of an active oncogene but also loss of a suppressor activity, perhaps induced by the clastogenic oncogene.
