Many cell types will grow when attached to a rigid surface but not in suspension, a phenomenon termed " anchorage dependence ". Anchorage dependence can be studied by incorporating solid particles of varying size into gels. It has been found that colonies will form on glass fibrils 500 p in length,

We have recently demonstrated that transforming growth factor (TGF)-Pl and TGF-02 are potent inhibitors of the growth and differentiation of murine and human hematopoietic cells. The proliferation of primary unfractionated murine bone marrow by interleukin-3 (IL-3) and human bone marrow by IL-3 or g
A novel 78kD phosphoprotein (pp78) of BALB/c 3T3 mouse fibroblasts is reported. Its properties of appearance in late GI phase, dependence on specific growth factors, and altered constitutive kinetics in benzo(a)pyrenetransformed (BPA31) cells suggest its role in growth and transformation. Pp78 phosp
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. Co
