## Abstract Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and transforming growth factor‐β1 (TGF‐β1) play an important role in proliferation, differentiation, and survival of malignant gliomas and in normal glial cell biology. Because of these critical roles, potential interactions between these key growth
A number of cytokines and growth factors may affect astrocyte proliferation and functions. Transforming growth factor-pl (TGF-P1) is a pleiotropic cytokine which exerts multiple effects on growth and differentiation of different cell types. TGF-P1 is present in low amounts in the normal brain. TGF-P
Transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-@) stimulated porcine satellite cell proliferation in basal serum-free medium by 25%, but inhibited growth in serumcontaining medium by 58%. The effect of TGF-@ on cell proliferation in serumfree medium was examined in combination with the following human recom
