To elucidate the relationship between epidermal growth factor (EGF)/transforming growth factor (TGF-a) and estradiol-17p (E) in cell proliferation, we examined their effects on the breast cancer cell line, CAMA-1. While E was able to consistently induce cell proliferation under a variety of experime

β¦ Synopsis
Pea plants grown under different conditions of cultivation, and eight different plant species with variegated leaves were used to study the intracellular localization of shikimate oxidoreductase (EC 1.1.1.25), the marker enzyme of the pre-chorismate pathway. The two series of experiments indicated an intraand an extraplastidic compartimentalization of the enzyme, and both enzyme activities are regulated differentially. While the extraplastidic activity is permanently demonstrable, the intraplastidic activity is subject to the plants' developmental state and also depends on both illumination and fertilization.

The effect of zinc on respiration of Ulva lactuca (previously incubated in filtered seawater, in the dark, for 18 h) was investigated using an oxygen electrode. When exposed to zinc (as sulphate) at concentrations up to 25 mM, zinc stimulated respiration with maximum stimulation occurring at 1.5 mM,
