  abstract  = {DNA synthesis and adenosine(S')tetraphosphate(S ')adenosine (Ap.A) levels decrease in cells treated with EDTA. The inhibitory effect of EDTA can be reversed with micro molar amounts of ZnCI2• ZnCh in micromolar concentrations also inhibits Ap.A hydrolase and stimulates amino acid-dependent Ap.A synthesis, suggesting that Zn2+ is modulating intracellular Ap.A pools. Serum addition to GI-arrested cells enhances uptake of Zn, whereas serum depletion leads to a fivefold decrease of the rates of zinc uptake. These results are discussed by regarding Zn2+ as a putative 'second messenger' of mitogenic induction and Ap.A as a possible 'third messenger' and trigger of DNA synthesis.},
