The time-course of changes in the plasma-membrane lipid bilayer induced by tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF) were investigated in cultured cells using spin-label electron-spin-resonance techniques. Treatment of K 562 cells, a human chronic myelocytic leukaemia cell line, in suspension culture with TNF for up to 6 h caused an initial increase in cell-membrane fluidity, which returned to the control level after 12 h of treatment. After 24 h of treatment, the cell-membrane fluidity had decreased and this decrease was maintained after 48 h of treatment. In Daudi cells, a human malignant lymphoma cell line, TNF, did not induce any changes in cell-membrane fluidity, indicating that the effect of TNF on membrane structure is cell-specific. The early and transient change in membrane fluidity in K 562 cells is probably related to signal generation, while the later, persistent change may reflect the phenotype of TNF-treated cells, in particular, changes in the plasma membrane-cytoplasmic complex. Histochemical electron microscopic studies indicated that the membrane fluidity changes induced by TNF have an ultrastructural correlate.
