Growth factors may play an important role in tumour growth and angiogenesis by their influence on tumour cell proliferation or their effect on neovascularization. The aim of the present study was to determine which of the growth factors, growth-inhibiting factors, and their receptors investigated in
To analyze transforming growth factor-b (TGF-b) response during MCF-7 cell progression, early passage (MCF-7E, õ200 passage) and late passage (MCF-7L, ú 500 passage) cells were compared. MCF-7E cells showed an IC 50 of Ç10 ng/ ml of TGF-b1, whereas MCF-7L cells were insensitive. MCF-7E cells contain
