Glioblastoma cells release factors (G-TsF) which inhibit T-cell proliferation. The G-TsF is a novel member of the transforming growth factor beta family and is identical to TGF beta 2. The effect of G-TsF and TGF beta 2 on the induction of LAK cell activity was investigated by culturing PBL obtained

Unlike 12-0-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, epidermal growth factor (EGF) could not promote the appearance of type 111 foci from initiated C3HIOT1/2 cells. At appropriate concentrations, EGF induced the formation of type I1 colonies in the absence of any initiator. At higher concentrations, EGF su
Overexpression of the growth factor receptors EGFR and erbB2 occurs frequently in several human cancers and is associated with aggressive tumour behaviour and poor patient prognosis. We have investigated the effects of ZD1839 (Iressa), a novel EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor, on the growth, in vitro
## Abstract Transforming growth factor‐beta (TGF‐beta), a potent cytokine, modulates a wide variety of biological responses. Among its actions, TGF‐beta can augment prostaglandin synthesis in several cell types. Although TGF‐beta alone has no effect on prostaglandin production in Swiss 3T3 cells, w
