Abstract
The mouse skin model of multistage carcinogenesis has for many years provided a conceptual framework for studying carcinogenesis mechanisms and potential means for inhibiting specific stages of carcinogenesis. The process of skin carcinogenesis involves the stepwise accumulation of genetic change ultimately leading to malignancy. Initiation, the first step in multistage skin carcinogenesis involves carcinogen-induced genetic changes. A target gene identified for some skin tumor initiators is c-Ha-ras. The second step, the promotion stage, involves processes whereby initiated cells undergo selective clonal expansion to form visible premalignant lesions termed papillomas. The process of tumor promotion involves the production and maintenance of a specific and chronic hyperplasia characterized by a sustained cellular proliferation of epidermal cells. These changes are believed to result from epigenetic mechanisms such as activation of the cellular receptor, protein kinase C, by some classes of tumor promoters. The progression stage involves the conversion of papillomas to malignant tumors, squamous cell carcinomas. The accumulation of additional genetic changes in cells comprising papillomas has been correlated with tumor progression, including trisomies of chromosomes 6 and 7 and loss of heterozygosity. The current review focuses on the mechanisms involved in multistage skin carcinogenesis, a summary of known inhibitors of specific stages and their proposed mechanisms of action, and the relevance of this model system to human cancer.

Abstract
The tumor promoter TPA2 (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate) has been shown to exhibit a radiomimetic activity on the cell cycle of HeLa cells (V. Kinzel, J. Richards, and M. Stöhr (1980) Science 210, 429). The response includes a delay of cells in G2 phase. The relation between TPA-induced release of arachidonic acid (AA) and the inhibition in G2 phase was studied. Exogenous AA (greater than 10(-4) M; in presence of 10% serum) is shown to delay HeLa cells in G2 and to enhance the effectiveness of TPA in this respect. The inhibition of the TPA-induced AA liberation by fluocinolone acetonide, however, does not influence the TPA-effected G2 delay. The diacylglycerols 1,2-dioctanoyl-glycerol and 1-oleoyl-2-acetylglycerol delay HeLa cells in G2 but without major stimulation of AA liberation. On the basis of the data it is concluded that AA released from HeLa cells due to the action of TPA is not involved in the TPA-induced delay of cells in G2 phase.

Abstract
The phorbol ester TPA (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate) stimulates baseline Na+ transport across frog skin epithelium and partially inhibits the natriferic response to vasopressin. The effects are produced largely or solely when TPA is added to the mucosal surface of the tissue. Although TPA activates protein kinase C, it has other effects, as well. Thus, the biochemical basis for the effects and the ionic events involved have been unclear. Furthermore, the physiologic implications have been obscure because of the sidedness of TPA's actions. We now report that two synthetic diacylglycerols (DAG) replicate the stimulatory and inhibitory effects of TPA on frog skin. DAG is the physiologic activator of PKC. In this tissue, it produces half-maximal stimulation at a concentration of less than or equal to 19 microM. In contrast to TPA, DAG is about equally effective from either tissue surface. In a series of eight experiments, DAG was found to depolarize the apical membrane. Diacylglycerol also increases the paracellular conductance of frog skins bathed with mucosal Cl- Ringer's solution. The latter effect can be minimized by replacing NO3- for Cl- in the mucosal solution. Under these conditions, combined intracellular and transepithelial measurements indicated that DAG increased both the apical Na+ permeability and intracellular Na+ concentration. These results are qualitatively similar to the effects of cyclic 3',5'-AMP on this tissue, suggesting that activation of PKC by DAG causes phosphorylation of the same or nearby gating sites phosphorylated by cAMP. We propose that apical Na+ entry is regulated in part by activation of PKC, and that insulin may be a physiologic trigger of this activation.

Abstract
Bovine papilloma virus-transformed hamster embryo fibroblasts (HEF-BPV) reacted to exposure to tricyclodecan-9-yl-xanthogenate (D609) with immediate reversion to the growth kinetics and the flat morphology of the untransformed parental cells. After six population doublings in the presence of D609, clones which displayed an untransformed morphology in the absence of D609 arose with a high frequency (90%). Such clones had reacquired a limited in vitro lifetime and had lost the ability to induce tumors in athymic nude mice. At the molecular level the revertant clones had lost all extrachromosomal monomeric BPV-1 DNA molecules. Only high molecular weight (HMW) oligomeric BPV-1 DNA that was probably integrated into the cellular genome was still detectable in a methylated transcriptionally inactive state. In contrast to transformed cells, the revertant clones no longer transcribed BPV-1-specific mRNA molecules, but were stimulated by a tumor promoter to transient viral gene expression. This article provides direct evidence for the complete reversibility of the property of "immortality".

Abstract
After transfer of Krebs II ascites cells from the mouse peritoneum to suspension culture addition of the phorbol ester 12-0-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) causes an early stimulation of 3H-choline incorporation into phosphatidylcholine (PC). Choline transport into the treated cells, however, was unaffected. Within 30 min of TPA treatment 3H-choline incorporation was almost 300% above the control level. During a 5 hr period of suspension culture the overall patterns of 3H-choline incorporation were similar in TPA-treated and control cultures though the rate was greatly accentuated by the presence of the phorbol ester. Incubation of cells with cycloheximide prior to incubation with TPA did not result in an inhibition of the TPA-directed 3H-choline incorporation. After 3 hr incubation with TPA there were large increases in radioactivity in all subcellular fractions. At 20 hr, however, the values were not far from those of the control. During the first 3 hr of incubation with TPA the incorporation of 3H-choline into light rough (LR) and smooth (S) membranes was stimulated to levels of 400% and 320% respectively above control values. At later times the profiles of radioactivity in membrane subfractions in TPA-treated and control cultures were similar. The results illustrate an early effect of TPA on PC biosynthesis in Krebs II ascites cells while at later times of incubation the stimulatory effect was virtually abolished.

Abstract
The sensitivity of HeLa cells in the G2 phase of the cell cycle towards the radiomimetic activity of the tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) (Kinzel et al. (1980) Science, 210, 429-431) has been utilized to establish dose response relationships. This was accomplished by analysis of mitotic curves and determination of cells not affected, a measurement known to be dose dependent in the case of very low X-ray doses. Half maximal activity was exerted by TPA at approximately 5 X 10(-9) M concentration. Mechanistically, however, TPA seems to exert its activity through a route different from that of X-rays or other radiomimetic drugs for 2 reasons: (1) the cellular response does not increase proportionally with dose; (2) cells recover from G2 blockage even in the presence of TPA. Therefore it appears as if the tumor promoter acts indirectly by triggering an exhaustable cellular activity which leads to the radiomimetic response.

Abstract
Tumor-promoting phorbol esters were used to manipulate the in vitro development of neural crest cells. When plated at clonal density in secondary culture, quail neural crest cells from the trunk region gave rise to three types of colonies, pigmented, unpigmented, and mixed. Pigmented colonies consisted exclusively of melanocytes; up to 50% of the unpigmented mixed colonies contained adrenergic nerve cells which could be identified by a catecholamine-specific histofluorescence method. Addition of potent tumor promoters to the culture medium shortened the doubling time of neural crest cells and altered their morphologic appearance. It also delayed the onset of pigmentation, prevented the expression of the adrenergic phenotype, reduced the number of unpigmented and mixed colonies, and increased the number of pigmented colonies, most likely by directing progenitor cells preferentially to the melanogenic pathway. There was a clear correlation between the ability of phorbol esters to promote skin tumors in mice and their ability to interfere with the in vitro development of quail neural crest cells. The potent promoters 12-0-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (TPA) and phorbol 12,13-didecanoate (PDD) were most effective, phorbol 12,13-diacetate (PDA) was considerably less effective, the nonpromoting analogues 4-0-methyl 12-0-tetradecanoyl phorbol 13-acetate (4-0-Me-TPA) and 4 alpha-phorbol 12,13-didecanoate (4alpha-PDD) and the parent alcohol phorbol (PHR) had little or no effect.

Abstract
We have investigated the effects of the tumor promoter 12-0-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) on plasminogen activator production, hexose transport and metabolism, and the incorporation of choline into the acid soluble pool and into phosphatidylcholine in suspension cultures of mouse L, mouse P388 leukemia, human HeLa, and Chinese hamster ovary cells, and in monolayer cultures of baby hamster kidney (BHK), mouse 3T3, mouse 3T6, and mouse P388D1 macrophage-like cells. BHK, 3T3, P388D1, and P388 cells produced plasminogen activator constitutively, but no significant production was observed in the other cell lines. Plasminogen activator production was induced or stimulated by TPA only in P388 cells (10- to 20-fold by 100 ng TPA/ml). On the other hand, phosphatidylcholine synthesis was stimulated by TPA only in HeLa cells, and hexose transport, as measured with 3-0-methyl-D-glucose, only in 3T3 and P388D1 cells, as well as in human lymphocytes. The stimulation of hexose transport occurred more rapidly than the induction of plasminogen activator production and seemed to be part of the mitogenic response of cells to TPA treatment. A stimulation of deoxyglucose uptake was similarly limited to 3T3 and P388D1 cells. A significant decarboxylation of carbon 1 of deoxyglucose occurred in P388 and P388D1 cells, but not in Novikoff cells, and any decarboxylation that occurred was not stimulated by TPA. The results indicate that the various investigated responses of cells to TPA are unrelated and occur independent of each other. The time courses of the biochemical responses also differ significantly.

Abstract
When added to mouse neuroblastoma cultures, the potent tumor promoter 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) inhibits spontaneous neurite formation as well as that induced in response to serum deprivation, prostaglandin E1, 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine, and papaverine. Other tumor-promoting macrocyclic plant diterpenes also inhibit neurite formation, whereas nonpromoting diterpenes do not. Inhibition by TPA was reversible and was unrelated to toxicity.

Abstract
A high-pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method using a micro-particulate silica column and gradient elution was developed that separated 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) from 20-oxo-TPA; 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol (TP); 13-O-acetylphorbol (PA), and from the diterpene alcohol, phorbol (P). A series of other phorbol-ester tumor promoters were also separated via HPLC. Spectrophotometric determination at 232 nm allowed detection sensitivities of 0.05 microgram of TPA. When tritiated TPA was applied to mouse skin, the majority of the tritiated product recovered was TPA, indicating only minimal metabolism of TPA and no need for metabolic activation for tumor promotion.
