To clarify the role of transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) and its receptors in hepatocyte growth, we studied the expression of TGF-b1 and its receptors and the sensitivity to growth inhibition by TGF-b1 protein in rat hepatocytes derived from resting and regenerating livers. In hepatocytes derived
