β¦ Synopsis
Epidermal growth factor stimulates phosphatidylinositol turnover in human foreskin fibroblasts. This is a primary cell culture with normal numbers of epidermal growth factor receptors that is stimulated to divide by epidermal growth factor. Increases are seen in the inositol phospholipids and inositol phosphates. Despite this activation of phosphatidylinositol turnover, there is no detectable activation of protein kinase C.

Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like growth factor (HB-EGF) stimulates cell proliferation in the adult mammalian brain, but the mechanism involved is unknown. To address this issue we treated mouse brain cerebral cortical cultures enriched in neuronal precursors with full-length HB-EGF
nases. These results suggest that PTK, Ras, and PKC Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) stimulated mitogenplay roles in MAP kinase activation induced by HGF and activated protein (MAP) kinases and MAP kinase kinase that MAP kinase activation resulting in AA release is in primary cultured rat hepatocytes.
Many hepatocellular activities may be proximally regulated by intracellular signalling proteins including mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK). In this study, signalling events from epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin were examined in primary cultured human and rat hepatocytes. Using Weste
