Anchorage-independent growth, i.e., growth in semi-solid medium is considered a marker of cellular transformation of fibroblast cells. Diploid human fibroblasts ordinarily do not exhibit such growth but can grow transiently when medium contains high concentrations of fetal bovine serum. This suggest

The addition of human platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) to confluent, quiescent cultures of human diploid fibroblasts induced the rapid breakdown of cellular polyphosphoinositides. The levels of 32P-labeled phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2), phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP), and
## Abstract Previous studies have demonstrated that serum contains mitogens, such as plateletβderived growth factor (PDGF), which may alter fibroblast responsiveness to growth factors contained in plasma. SomatomedinβC (SMβC) has been identified as one of the plasma growth factors required for mous
Clonally derived cultures of porcine skeletal muscle satellite cells were developed. The mitogenic effects of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFCF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and -Ill, and platelet-derived growth factors (PDGF-AA and -BB) were examined. Indivi
