| Lipid Metabolism of Ehrlich Ascites Tumor Cells Grown in Chemically Defined Albumin Medium  | | | Abstract
| Total lipids o f Ehrlich ascites tumor cells grown in nutrient medium supplemented with 1% bovine serum albumin instead o f 15% native horse serum and rate o f incorporation of [3H] acetate into total lipids are reduced, while the cholesterol content of the cells is higher than of controls grown in normal medium. The lower lipid content o f cells cultured in albumin supplemented medium is explained by a lack o f exogenous lipids, which are normally taken up from the serum containing nutrient medium. A several fold increase of incorporation o f labelled choline and ethanolamine into the phospholipids o f the cells grown in the modified medium is observed. We suggest, that the observed stimulation of the incorporation o f phospholipid precursors reflects changes in the dynamic state o f the membranes produced by serum depletion. | | |

| Photoautotrophic Cultured Plant Cells: A Novel System to Survey New Photosynthetic Electron Transport Inhibitors  | | | Abstract
| The responses o f photoautotrophic (PA) cultured cells o f tobacco (N icotiana tabacum cv. Samsun N N) and liverwort (M archantia polym orpha L.) to thirty-eight cyclohexanedione de rivatives were surveyed. Each derivative was also tested for inhibitory activity on photosyn thetic electron transport (PET), using isolated thylakoids, and herbicidal activity, using seed lings and mature plants. Comparison o f the results from the different assays showed that the responses o f PA cells to each com pound correlated more closely with the responses o f seed lings and mature plants than did the results o f the Hill reaction assays. Our findings suggest that PA cultured cells would be a suitable screening material for identifying potential herbi cides with PET-inhibiting activity. | | |

| Proliferation and Metabolie Activities of Ehrlich Ascites Tumor Cells in Chemically Defined Albumin Media  | | | Abstract
| , amino acid transport, respiration and lactate/glucose quotient of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells grown in suspension culture in serum free medium supplemented with albumin charges of different origin were studied. Optimal cell growth was obtained in nutrient medium supplemented with 1% bovine serum albumin (Cohn-fraction V, Serva). Cell proliferation under these culture conditions was delayed to 50% as compar ed to controls in normal medium; the rate of synthesis of macromolecules was reduced; energy metabolism was not significantly impaired. The trend of the cells in albumin medium to attach to glass was independent from the pH of the cultures between 7.2 and 8.0; it was enhanced by fatty acid deprivation of the albumin. | | |
