Incubation of mouse embryo fibroblasts (C3H/10T1/2) in media depleted of thyroid hormone for 1 week rendered the cells completely resistant to the transforming action of an x-ray dose, 4 grays, that yields transformation frequencies (no. foci per surviving cells) of approximately 10(-3) in media supplemented with triiodothyronine (T3) (1 nM). Studies on the timing of the additions or removal of the hormone indicate that T3 was maximally effective when added 12 hr before irradiation and that progression from the time of irradiation to the appearance of foci (6 weeks) was independent of the presence or absence of the hormone. The dependence of x-ray-induced transformation on the concentration of T3 in the medium was virtually the same as that for augmentation of Na+,K+-ATPase activity. The latter effect was used as a measure of T3 induction of protein synthesis. A further indication of the involvement of protein synthesis in the process is the abolition of T3- and x-ray-dependent transformation by cycloheximide at a concentration (100 ng/ml) that inhibits 50% of protein synthesis. We propose that thyroid hormone induces the synthesis of a host protein that is an obligatory participant in x-ray-mediated transformation.

Crucial role of thyroid hormone in x-ray-induced neoplastic transformation in cell culture.
