## Abstract Plateletβderived growth factor (PDGF) is a potent mitogenic and chemotactic cytokine, and PDGFβC is a novel growth factor belonging to the PDGF family. In this study, to determine whether this growth factor can contribute to fibrosis and tissue remodeling, we examined the effect of PDGF

The addition of human platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) to confluent, quiescent cultures of human diploid fibroblasts induced the rapid breakdown of cellular polyphosphoinositides. The levels of 32P-labeled phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP), and
Nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) are structurally related survival and differentiation factors for distinct sets of peripheral and central neurons. The regulation of NGF gene expression has been extensively studied in L929 mouse fibroblasts. L929 cells also expr
