Both serum factors and protein synthesis are required for normal cell growth. Swiss 3T3 cells require the serum growth factors insulin and EGF (epidermal growth factor) during the initial part of the G I period, until they pass a restriction point about 2 h before the initiation of DNA synthesis.

## Abstract The growth of NIL and NILpy hamster embryo fibroblasts was determined in the presence and absence of pyruvate as a component of the growth medium. It was demonstrated that NIL cells respond to the presence of pyruvate by decreasing cell doubling time, glucose utilization, glutamine util
3T3 and SV-40 transformed 3T3 mouse fibroblasts were cultured i n media with serum and antibiotics plus ammonia (NH3 z NH,') added as NHaC1. Both cell lines cultured without added ammonia showed normal morphology and multiplication even though ammonia in the medium at the end of the culture period r
## Abstract In the presence of growthβlimiting serum concentrations trypsin displays mitogenic activity on activelyβgrowing but not quiescent BHK cells. These results suggest that BHK cells arrested in G~1~ (G~0~) are not sensitive to proteaseβinduced growth stimulation. Previous work strongly sugg
