These experiments were aimed at using a recently developed serum-free culture system for growth of normal rat mammary epithelial (RME) cells in vitro to examine the interactions of specific hormones and growth factors on the proliferative potential of these cells. RME cells were obtained by enzymati

## Abstract The binding of [^125^I]‐epidermal growth factor (EGF) and [^125^I]‐basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) to a number of single‐cell cloned rat mammary cell lines was measured using a saturation assay. Similar numbers of high‐affinity [^125^I]‐EGF binding sites (K~D~ 1.3 nM) were found i
We have previously shown that transforming growth factor-b1 (TGF-b1) enhances the epidermal growth factor-(EGF) and transforming growth factor-a (TGF-a)stimulated motility of rat hepatocytes in an extracellular matrix (ECM)-dependent fashion (Stolz and Michalopoulos, 1997, J. Cell. Physiol., 170:57-
We examined the effect of the stable transfection of latent TGF-1 cDNA, under the control of a cytomegalovirus promoter in the expression vector pcDNA3, into a 4NQOinduced clonal rat oral keratinocyte cell line that formed undifferentiated spindle cell tumours following subcutaneous transplantation
