## Abstract The mitogenic effect of TGF‐alpha, acidic‐FGF, basic‐FGF and lithium on normal human breast epithelial cells was studied in a collagen gel culture system using a serum‐free 1:1 mixture of Ham's F12 and DME medium containing insulin, cholera toxin and bovine serum albumin. TGF‐alpha elic

The effect of lithium on the growth of mammary epithelial cells from adult virgin and midpregnant BALBlc or BALBlcfC3H mice was tested in a serumfree collagen gel culture system. The serum-free medium consisted of a 1:l mixture of Ham's F12 and Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium supplemented with in
We examined the effects of 1alpha,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (1,25-DHCC) and the glucocorticoid, cortisol, on primary mouse mammary epithelial cells in collagen gel cell culture systems. Physiological low concentrations (10(-11)-10(-9) M) of 1,25-DHCC stimulated growth of the cells in a collagen ge
