“…Included in these are reduced adhesion of cells to solid substrates (Easty, Easty & Ambrose, 1960;Weiss, 1963) and to each other (Moscona, 1952;Steinberg & Granger, 1966;Steinberg, 1967;Wiseman, Steinberg & Phillips, 1972); more rapid emigration of cells from explants (Simms & Stillman, 1937;Lefford, 1965); reduced binding of cytophilic antibodies (Kossard & Nelson, 1968), viruses (Zajac & Crowell, 1965), and sperm (Aketa, Onitake & Tsuzuki, 1972); altered carbohydrate uptake and metabolism (Kuo, Holmlund & Dill, 1966;Phillips, 1967); a release from postconfluence inhibition (Martz & Steinberg, 1972) of growth in vitro (Burger, 1970;Sefton & Rubin, 1970;Poste, 1971); increased deformability of the cell surface (Weiss, 1966); and animalization (Moore, 1952) and activation (Jensen, 1948) of unfertilized sea urchin eggs.…”
