    Abstract:
    Spontaneous velocity sedimentation of B lymphocytes activated by intraperitoneal injection of ovalbumin into mice was used to obtain cell cycle synchronized cells, evidenced by differences in the incorporation of labeled precursors of protein and nucleic synthesis (14C-methionine and 3H-thymidine). The effects of acetylcholine and adrenaline, cAMP and cGMP on the intensity of 3H-thymidine incorporation into mouse B lymphocytes and on the amount of the cells entering mitosis were examined. It was shown that acetylcholine is capable of stimulating whereas adrenaline of inhibitin B lymphocyte entry into the stage of DNA synthesis and egress of these cells from the stage of DNA synthesis to the stage of mitosis. Adrenaline was found to have a reciprocal action. The acetylcholine effect could be mimetized by exogenous cGMP, that of adrenaline by cAMP. Stimulation of the G1/S transition was mediated by intracellular calcium ions but did not depend on exocellular calcium.
