Treatment of Ehrlich ascites-tumour (EAT) cells with interferon (IFN) abolished their ability to secrete a 32 kDa protein that was secreted by growing EAT cells. These IFN-treated cells secreted two proteins (molecular masses 100 and 89 kDa as estimated by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis) that were not detected in two-dimensional gel electrophoresis of the culture fluid of untreated EAT cells. The sequence of 20 amino acids from the N-terminal end of the 32 kDa protein was very similar to portions of sequences of mouse proviral gag proteins.

Adhesiveness of Ehrlich ascites tumour (EAT) cells to glass, to mouse peritoneal membrane, living and aldehyde-fixed mouse embryo fibroblasts and chick embryo fibroblasts, myoblasts and myotubes was investigated. The ascitic EAT cells (and leukaemia L1210 cells) did not adhere to glass and peritoneum but readily adhered to embryo fibroblasts, myoblasts and myotubes. The attachment was followed by cell spreading and migration. Fixation of fibroblasts or myogenic cells with aldehydes did not prevent ascitic cells from attaching but reduced the rate of spreading. Only direct interaction of ascitic cells with embryo myoblasts or fibroblasts induced changes in tumour cell adhesiveness followed by cell spreading and locomotion. These results are discussed in relation to an observation that ascitic cells growing as a cell suspension intraperitoneally grow as a solid tumour when injected subcutaneously.

The transport and oxidation of succinate by functionally intact Ehrlich ascites-tumour cells was investigated. On the basis of pH dependence and inhibitor sensitivity it was concluded that succinate may be transported across the cell membrane by the organic anion carrier system. Thus the ability of isolated Ehrlich cells to oxidize succinate is real, and is not necessarily a result of damage to cell integrity.
