We have compared the effects of pretreatment of Swiss 3T3 cell with pertussis toxin on the stimulation of DNA synthesis and phosphoinositide hydrolysis in response to a wide variety of mitogens. The toxin substantially inhibited the stimulation of DNA synthesis in response to a phorbol ester or various peptide and polypeptide growth factors irrespective of their ability to activate phosphoinositidase C. Production of inositol phosphates in response to platelet-derived growth factor, fibroblast growth factor and prostaglandin F2 alpha were unaffected by the toxin while bombesin- and vasopressin-stimulated formation of inositol phosphates were inhibited by only 27 and 23% respectively. These results argue against a major role for a pertussis toxin-sensitive G protein in coupling any of these mitogen receptors to activation of a phosphoinositidase C. Furthermore, the results suggest that the widespread inhibitory effects of pertussis toxin on mitogen-stimulated DNA synthesis may be unrelated to the toxin's limited actions on phosphoinositide hydrolysis.
