Abstract
1. Distinct differences were found for the specific, concanavalin A-inhibitable 5'-nucleotidase activity, exhibiting 2-7 times higher values in the low-metastasizing cell variants. 2. Iodination of the cell surface proteins revealed a more heterogeneous labelling pattern of the high-malignant cell lines in the molecular weight range between 14 and about 35 kDa. 3. The low-malignant cell lines exhibited a significantly higher surface charge as deduced from their higher sialic acid content compared to the high-malignant variants. 4. They also showed a greater membrane lipid fluidity as determined both by the cholesterol to phospholipid ratio and by fluorescence depolarization measurements.

Abstract
The primary gene defect of Huntington's disease is believed to involve the membrane of some peripheral cells. The membrane fluidity of skin fibroblasts, erythrocytes and leucocytes was measured by fluorescence polarisation of a lipid specific probe, 1,6 diphenyl, 1,3,5 hexatriene. No significant difference between controls and Huntington's disease patients could be demonstrated.

Abstract
Exponential and plateau phase Chinese hamster ovary cells were maintained for 3 days at 32, 37, 39 or 41 degrees C. The effect of growth temperature on the fluidity and composition of the cellular membranes, and on the ability of the cells to resist a subsequent heat treatment at 43 degrees C, was measured. Cells grown at temperatures above 37 degrees C displayed increased resistance or tolerance to a 43 degree C heat treatment, whereas cells grown at 32 degrees C were sensitized to heat. Extensive cell division was not required for expression of heat tolerance. Membrane fluidity, as determined by the degree of rotational mobility of the fluorescent probe diphenylhexatriene, decreased with increasing growth temperatures, but the relationship did not hold in exponential phase cells grown at 32 degrees C. The cholesterol : phospholipid molar ratio correlated with the fluorescence polarization values, suggesting that the cells are able to adjust membrane fluidity by varying the concentration of cholesterol. The results are compatible with the concept of homeoviscous adaptation: that organisms strive to maintain an optimal level of membrane fluidity and when grown at a different temperature will alter the lipid composition in order to maintain this level. Up until now, cholesterol has not been implicated in this process.

Abstract
This study aimed at evaluating by a quantitative assay the fibrin clot retractile activity (FCR) of C3H embryo fibroblasts during their growth and aging in culture. Cell from primary and subsequent subcultures were tested at defined times from seeding, in a specially devised micromethod. Results indicate that cell-induced FCR has a kinetic similar to platelet-induced FCR; it depends on the number of cells and time of incubation in the system. It is absent or low in cells harvested from primary culture, then increases and remains high in the following doublings decreasing sharply at the end of the replicative life span in culture.

Abstract
A histopathological and ultrastructural analysis of the early stage of limb dysmorphogenesis from 1 hr to 48 hr, following citral administration is presented as a model for studying the reaction to injury of undifferentiated embryonic tissues. Early lesions such as cloudy swelling, hydropic degeneration, enlargement of the extracellular space and retraction of protoplasmic extensions were observed 1 hr after treatment, affecting both epiderm and mesenchyme of the limb. Few pyknotic cells were encountered during the early stages. Cell necrosis and autophagocytosis became more conspicuous at 12 hr post-injection. About the same time the first signs of healing were observed, charcterised by heterophagocytosis and return of mitotic activity. The epiderm being more differentiated, regenerates ad integrum and more rapidly than the mesenchyme. The evolution of these pathological events, which proceed in a spatio-temporal cascade, seem to reflect the pharmacokinetic gradient of the cell-teratogen interactions. The type of limb malformation will depend mainly on the extent of injury and/or healing of the mesenchymal mass, rather than on the injury and/or healing of the surface ectoderm. It is concluded that the reaction to chemical injury of undifferentiated tissues partially mimics the destructive and repair process in adult tissues, but differs in lacking some basic constituents such as oedema, monocyte exudation and granulation tissue formation.

Abstract
The growth requirements of SV40 transformed Balb/c-3T3 cells have been studied in the absence of serum. For growth in serum-free medium, the cells require (i) insulin, (ii) transferrin, and (iii) cis-unsaturated fatty acids added in combination with fatty acid free bovine serum albumin. The growth rate, saturation density, and morphology of cells grown in this serum-free medium are the same as those of cells grown in serum supplemented medium. This mixture also supports the growth of SV40 transformed Swiss-3T3 cells and SV40 transformed primary mouse embryo cells, but does not support the growth of untransformed Balb/c-3T3 cells. The addition of fibronectin to this mixture allows routine subculture, repeated passage, and indefinite propagation of SV40 transformed Balb/c-3T3 cells. Cells grown in this medium for a period of two months retain their ability to induce tumors when injected into athymic nude mice.

Abstract
Treatment of HeLa cells for 24 h with dexamethasone resulted in lower steady-state polarization values of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene in both intact cells and dispersions of whole cell lipid extracts. Dexamethasone also reduced the polarization values in isolated membrane fractions from treated cells. These effects are similar to the effect of 25-hydroxycholesterol, a potent inhibitor of cellular sterol synthesis.

Abstract
Fluid charged lipid vesicles loaded with an inositol hexaphosphate solution were used to transport this allosteric effector into human intact red blood cells. Rate and extent of uptake of the vesicles and of the effector by the red blood cells were measured as changes in the O2 half-saturation pressure and the 31P-NMR spectra of the intracellular inositol hexaphosphate-haemoglobin complex.

Abstract
Binding of either low density lipoprotein (LDL) or Concanavalin A (ConA) to actively growing vascular endothelial cells is associated with a redistrubution of the appropriate cell surface receptor sites which form patches and caps. This receptor lateral mobility is greatly restricted when endothelial cells reach confluence and adopt the configuration of a cell monolayer composed of closely apposed and non-overlapping cells. In this case, although the cells still exhibit specific LDL binding to the appropriate cell surface receptor sites, neither the binding of LDL nor of ConA induces a receptor redistribution. The lack of LDL receptor redistribution correlates with a marked decrease in the rate of LDL internalization. In contrast, no such density-dependent changes are observed in cell types which grow on top of each other and form multiple cell layers at confluence. Thus, neither LDL nor ConA induced cap formation in either sparse or confluent smooth muscle cell cultures and the same rate of LDL internalization is observed at both cell densities. Similarly, adsorptive endocytosis of cationized LDL (which enters the cells independently of the LDL receptor sites) was not correlated with a detectable receptor redistribution, nor was it significantly affected by changes in cell density and spatial organization. The formation of a confluent cell monolayer resting on an underlying basement membrane might therefore provide, via a change in membrane dynamics, a mechanism whereby the endothelium of large blood vessels can function as a protective barrier against the high circulating levels of LDL in plasma.

Abstract
Nanosecond decays of the fluorescence anisotropy, r, were studied for the emission of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) embedded in a series of mixed multilamellar liposomes containing egg yolk phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and cholesterol in varying molar ratios, as well as in membranes of intact cells and in virus envelopes. The relative contributions of the fast and the infinitely slow decaying component to the steady-state value r, of the fluorescence anisotropy were very similar for artifical and biological membranes. Angles, theta, of the cone, by which the motion of the fluorescent molecule is limited, were calculated from the intensity of the infinitely slow decaying anisotropy component and compared with steady-state fluorescence anisotropies and with 'microviscosities', (eta). An increase in (eta) from 1.5 to 5.2 P in our systems was accompanied by a decrease in theta from 49 degrees to 30 degrees while the decrease in the mean motional relaxation times, phi f, of the label molecule was not more than 1 ns and due mainly to changes in the potential, by which the diffusion of DPH in the membrane is restricted. From these observations we conclude that differences in the steady-state fluorescence anisotropy and in 'microviscosities' of cholesterol-containing membranes (r greater than 0.15) represent changes in the degree of static orientational constraint rather than changes in diffusion rates of the label.

Abstract
Vascular endothelial cells cultured in the presence of fibroblast growth factor (FGF) divide actively when seeded at low or clonal cell densities and upon reaching confluence adopt a morphologic appearance and differentiated properties similar to those of the vascular endothelium in vivo. In this review, we present some of our recent observations regarding the characteristics (both structural and functional) of these endothelial cells and the role of FGF in controlling their proliferation and normal differentiation. At confluence the endothelial cells form a monolayer of closely apposed and nondividing cells that have a nonthrombogenic apical surface and can no longer internalize bound ligands such as low-density lipoprotein (LDL). The adoption of these properties is correlated and possibly causally related to changes in the cell surface such as the appearance of a 60,000 molecular weight protein (CSP-60); the disappearance of fibronectin from the apical cell surface and its concomitant accumulation in the basal lamina; and a restriction of the lateral mobility of various cell surface receptor sites. In contrast, endothelial cells that are maintained in the absence of FGF undergo within three passages alterations that are incompatible with their in vivo morphologic appearance and physiologic behavior. They grow at confluence on top of each other and hence can no longer adopt both the structural (CSP-60, cell surface polarity) and functional (barrier function, nonthrombogenicity) attributes of differentiated endothelial cells. Since these characteristics can be reacquired in response to readdition of FGF, in addition to being a mitogen FGF may also be involved in controlling the differentiation and phenotypic expression of the vascular endothelium.
