The interaction of several of the fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) with polyanions is thought to be of physiological significance and has been exploited to create more stable pharmaceutical formulations of FGF-1 and -2. The extent of such phenomena throughout the 23-member FGF family is, however, un
We have investigated postgastrulation functions of FGFs in Xenopus development by the implantation of heparin beads soaked in FGF2 to various positions at various stages. Anterior implantations show different effects depending on whether they are made to early neurulae or to later stages. At stage 1
To study the relationship between androgen metabolism and the pathogenesis of benign prostatic hypertrophy, we purified a growth factor from benign hyperplastic tissue of human prostates and assayed the proliferative responses of human fetal prostatic fibroblasts to the purified growth factor (hPGF)
Although increased free intracellular calcium (Cai) may be one of the main regulators of cell growth and differentiation, studies in cell populations have implied that not all growth factors produce C q increases. In order to examine in more detail whether C q increases were related to mitogenesis,
