## Abstract The epithelial lining of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is in a state of continuous cell renewal, and the proliferating and differentiating/differentiated cell populations are spatially clearly demarcated. Members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of peptides, the trefoil pep
Epidermal growth factor (EGF) causes gender-and development-specific changes in fetal lung surfactant synthesis. We hypothesized that the effects of EGF on development of surfactant synthesis are related to effects on EGF receptor (EGF-R) expression. We prepared sex-specific fetal rabbit lung organ
