Abstract

Phytohemagglutinin and the co-carcinogenic phorbol ester, 12-0- tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate, act synergistically in cultures of bovine lymphocytes to induce a mitogenic response. Insect juvinile hormones appear to act selectively to block or counteract an early hormones appear to act selectively to block or counteract an early event in the induction of DNA and nuclear replication while allowing other blastogenic events such as increases in RNA and protein synthesis and cell size to occur.
