Serially transplantable rat mammary tumor (RMT) cells are not dependent on exogenous epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin-like growth factor-I for continuous growth in serum-free medium. Previously, we found that conditioned medium obtained from these cells contained EGF-like mitogenic activity
## Abstract The purpose of our studies was to define abnormalities in the transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) system of transformed rat tracheal epithelial (RTE) cells that might cause their abnormal growth behavior. We found that many, but not all, of the transformed cell lines were hyporesponsiv
