Abstract
Treatment of HL-60 cells with dibutyryl cyclic AMP induced rapid transcriptional inactivation of c-myc and the transferrin receptor. Transcriptional inactivation was followed by loss of c-myc and transferrin receptor mRNA and protein. Treated cells completed one round of proliferation, followed by growth arrest, G1 synchronization, and monocytic differentiation. These data suggest that cyclic AMP-mediated control of growth and differentiation may be achieved, at least in part, by transcriptional regulation of certain growth-associated proto-oncogenes and growth factor receptor genes.
