Effect of cytoskeleton-disrupting on the redistribution of the surface receptors of cultured cells

The capacity of cap-formation in cultured cells was shown to increase from 2 to 20 fold upon treating them with ligands in the presence of a conditioned medium. This permitted us to compare the influence of cytoskeleton-disrupting agents on the process of cap-formation in cultured cells of different...

Summary:The capacity of cap-formation in cultured cells was shown to increase from 2 to 20 fold upon treating them with ligands in the presence of a conditioned medium. This permitted us to compare the influence of cytoskeleton-disrupting agents on the process of cap-formation in cultured cells of different origin. Cytochalasin was shown to inhibit cap-formation, induced with concanavalin A or anti-H2-serum, both in cells of lymphoid and fibroblastic origin. In contrast, vinblastin did not inhibit cap-formation in cells of lymphoid origin, but caused inhibition in cells of fibroblastic origin twice as strong as did cytochalasin B.
