| Abstract: | 1 alpha,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3, a hormonally active form of vitamin D, induces anchorage-independent growth of BALB/3T3 A31-1-1 and NIH/3T3 cells with concomitant increase of their mRNA level of c-Ki-ras but not of c-Ha-ras or c-myc, through a receptor-mediated mechanism. Under the same conditions, 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate did not induce anchorage-independent growth in these cell lines. |
