## Abstract The basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) family of peptides influences a wide range of cellular actions. To better understand the possible role of bFGF in the growth plate, we have characterized the interaction of this growth factor with isolated bovine growth plate chondrocytes. Basic

## Abstract Fibroblast growth factorβ2 and parathyroid hormone are strong modulators of the maturation process of chondrocytes during endochondral ossification. To clarify whether and how these agents may exert stageβspecific effects during this process, we analyzed the responsiveness and phenotypi
To study the relationship between androgen metabolism and the pathogenesis of benign prostatic hypertrophy, we purified a growth factor from benign hyperplastic tissue of human prostates and assayed the proliferative responses of human fetal prostatic fibroblasts to the purified growth factor (hPGF)
