We have previously shown that rat liver epithelial cells (RLEC) transfected with and constitutively expressing transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α) have an enhanced mitogenic response to hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). In the study reported here, we examined tumor clones derived from the TGF-α trans

Stimulation of hepatocyte proliferation by epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin is inhibited by transforming growth factor ␤ (TGF-␤) and by glucagon. It is also suppressed by inhibitors of various protein kinases, including rapamycin, which blocks activation of p70 S6 kinase (p70 S6k ), PD98059

Intraarticular injection of hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid; HA) is the common way to treat osteoarthritis (OA) of knees. This treatment cannot only maintain the viscoelastic properties of knee but also release the OA pain. However, the exact molecular mechanism is unknown. In this study, after human sy
