✦ Synopsis

The effect of transforming growth factor-a (TGFa) on granulosa cell differentiation, as assessed by the acquisition of aromatase activity, was evaluated in vitro by using a primary culture of rat granulosa cells. Harvested from immature,

## Abstract We conducted an experiment to determine whether expression of transforming growth factor‐α (TGF‐α) enhances tumorigenicity in a low‐tumorigenicity rat bladder carcinoma cell line and whether it is sufficient to induce a tumorigenic phenotype in a nontumorigenic rat bladder cell line.

Oxidative stress plays a key role in liver fibrosis. Both inflammatory cells and activated Kupffer cells produce H 2 O 2 , an oxidant involved in the activation of hepatic stellate cells (HSC). Increased production of reactive oxygen intermediates (ROIs) in fibrotic livers is associated in part with
