“ Actinomycin D , ethionine, thioacetamide (non-mutagenic in the Ames Salmonella test) and kepone are known to increase serum progesterone concentrations and induce synthesis of ovalbumin in chicks.”
Biochemical and biophysical research communications • 1979 | View Paper
“In vivo administration of actinomycin D to chicks led to a 65% increase in the rate of ovalbumin synthesis in culture with no change in total or polysomal mRNA levels, providing direct evidence that this drug increases the rate of ovalbumin mRNA translation.”
The Journal of biological chemistry • 1973 | View Paper
“Furthermore, actinomycin D increased the absolute rate of ovalbumin and conalbumin synthesis compared to untreated controls, despite a small decrease in the number of polysomes and the concentration of total ovalbumin mRNA.”
