Human peripheral blood monocytes and neutrophils secrete TGF-beta. Activation of monocytes with LPS stimulates the secretion of TGF-beta; however, the production of TGF-beta by neutrophils was not altered by treatment with LPS. The secreted TGF-beta appears to be in a fully active form since acid tr

In the rat, nerve growth factor (NGF) has been shown to affect immune reactivity by binding to cell surface receptors on a subpopulation of splenic mononuclear cells. This binding occurs in a specific and saturable fashion to what appear to be low-affinity (type 11) NGF receptors (NGFR). Immunofluor
## Abstract Insulin‐like growth factor II (IGF‐II) plays a key role in mitogenesis during development and tumorigenesis and is believed to exert its mitogenic functions mainly through the IGF‐I receptor. Recently, we identified the insulin receptor isoform A (IR^A^) as an additional high affinity r
