PG - 261-7 AB - The present work was aimed to examine whether the actin reorganization of 3T3-SV40 cells influences their sensitivity to natural killer (NK) cells activity. The effects of N-acetylcystein (NAC) and latrunculin B, actin depolimerizator, on both cellular parameters were studied. Experiments with NAC demonstrated that 3T3-SV40 sensitivity to NK cells activity remained unchanged under the disordered microfilaments but decreased upon the appearance of structured stress-fibres. The data on latrunculin B action resulted in the opposite conclusion: the more microfilaments disorganization in the presence of latrunculin B the lesser 3T3-SV40 sensitivity to lysis by NK cells. These facts suggest that relations between microfilament integrity in 3T3-SV40 cells and their sensitivity to NK cells are rather independent. The latter confirms our previous conclusion (Gamaley et al., 2006). Decrease in 3T3-SV40 sensitivity to NK cells activity accompanied by actin reorganization resulted from both latrunculin B and NAC action suggests changes in cellular surface, which ultimately lead to inactivation (or loss) of the molecules being activating signals to NK cells.
