This review focuses on the possible role of transforming growth factor-~3 isoforms 1-3 (TGF~3) in prostate cancer. TGF~ 1 appears to inhibit the cellular proliferation of normal prostate cells. Surprisingly, TGF[31 is overexpressed in prostate cancer. To help explain this apparent paradox, it has be
## BACKGROUND. Transforming growth factor-␣ (TGF-␣) is a potent stimulator of cell proliferation in the liver and in liver tumors; however, its significance and association with hepatocyte proliferation remains unclear. ## METHODS. Expression of TGF-␣ and proliferation markers, such as prolifer
