JORMA KESKI-OJA Two types of transforming growth factors (TGF) have been purified and well characterized, TGFa and TGFP. TGFa is a 5.6 kD single chain molecule that shows sequence homology to epidermal growth factor (EGF), binds to the EGF receptor, and has biological effects very similar to those o

The autocrine hypothesis of neoplastic transformation originally stated that transformed cells escaped normal growth restraints by the production of and autostimulation by endogenous growth factors. This hypothesis followed the demonstration by DeLarco and Todaro [l] that murine sarcoma virus-transf
## Abstract Peroxisome proliferators cause increases in liver mass in rodents, linked to changes in cell proliferation and cell death of hepatocytes. These effects are reversible upon cessation of treatment. The underlying mechanism of the response in rodent liver is complex, but clearly dependent
To examine the role of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) in the in vivo regulation of Schwann cell proliferation, steady-state levels of mRNAs encoding PDGF A and B chains, and PDGF a and p receptors were measured in immature and adult rat sciatic nerves and in cultured rat Schwann cells. PDGF B
Differentiation and proliferation of almost all hemopoietic cell lines can now be studied in vitro. Cloning techniques and suspension cultures allow the study of proliferation of the multipotential hemopoietic progenitor cell and the committed progenitors for granulocytes, macrophages, eosinophils,
