## Abstract Transforming growth factor‐beta 1 (TGF‐β1) is an important growth inhibitor of epithelial cells and insensitivity to this cytokine results in uncontrolled cell proliferation and can contribute to tumorigenesis. TGF‐β1 signals through the TGF‐β type I and type II receptors, and activates
A panel of 6 human glioma cell lines was examined for TGF-1 responsiveness. U-178 MG and U-251 MG AgCl1 were significantly inhibited by TGF-1, while U-343 MGa 31L and U-343 MGa 35L were potently stimulated to proliferate. TGF-1 induced endogenous PAI-1 protein synthesis, Smad binding element/(CAG
