## Abstract ## Objective We have discovered that a combination of fibroblast growth factor 2 and transforming growth factor β1 induce profound morphologic changes in immature articular cartilage. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that these changes represent accelerated postnata

In this study we have examined the relationship between growth factor-induced proliferation and ODC/polyamine levels. TGF beta promotes cell growth and enhances [3H]-thymidine incorporation in chick embryo fibroblasts maintained in a serum-depleted medium. The action on DNA synthesis declines in the
## Abstract ## Objective Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) and transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) are potent anabolic factors in adult articular chondrocytes. In this study, we investigated whether intracellular inhibitors of BMP and TGFβ signaling, inhibitory Smad6 (I‐Smad6) and I‐Smad7, are expr
