## Abstract Insulin‐like growth factor‐I (IGF‐I) promotes bone formation by stimulating proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts. Bone sialoprotein (BSP), is thought to function in the initial mineralization of bone, is selectively expressed by differentiated osteoblast. To determine the mo

Transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) increases steady-state mRNA levels of several extracellular matrix proteins in mineralized connective tissues. Bone sialoprotein (BSP) is a major constituent of the bone matrix, thought to initiate and regulate the formation of mineral crystals. To determine the
## Abstract Transforming growth factor‐beta (TGF‐beta), a potent cytokine, modulates a wide variety of biological responses. Among its actions, TGF‐beta can augment prostaglandin synthesis in several cell types. Although TGF‐beta alone has no effect on prostaglandin production in Swiss 3T3 cells, w
