We have compared the effect of extracellular Ca2+concentration and of phorbol ester tumor promoters on the growth of normal rat liver epithelial cells, a chemically transformed derivative of these cells and a mutant of the latter cells that is temperature sensitive in the expression of transformation. The normal K16 or K22 cells grew considerably better in 1.25 mM Ca2+than in 0.01 mM Ca2+, whereas their transformed counterpart, W8, grew equally well in 1.25 and 0.01 mM Ca2+. The temperature-sensitive mutant TS 223 exhibited an intermediate phenotype. When grown at either 36°C or 39.5°C, these cells were less Ca2+dependent than K16 or K22 cells; but they were more Ca2+dependent than W8 cells. The phorbol ester tumor promoters TPA (12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate), PDD (phorbol-12, 13-didecanoate) and PDB (phorbol-12,13-dibenzoate) enhanced the growth of K16 or K22 cells in 0.01 mM Ca2+. On the other hand, the same agents markedly inhibited the growth of W8 and TS 223 cells, at 36°C and 39.5°C, in both low (0.01 mM) and normal (1.25 mM) Ca2+concentrations. Two structurally related diterpenes which lack tumor promoting activity on mouse skin, phorbol and 4αPDD, did not alter the growth properties of any of these cell lines, at either low or normal Ca2+concentrations. Our results indicate, therefore, differences in the responses between normal and transformed rat liver epithelial cells to growth control by extracellular Ca2+and tumor promoters.
