## BACKGROUND. Nerve growth factor (NGF) immunoreactive proteins derived from human prostatic stromal cells (hPS) have been implicated in the paracrine regulation of prostate epithelial cell growth. However, mature NGF does not appear to be expressed by these cells. In order to determine whether N

We have investigated the role of autocrine/paracrine TGF-b secretion in the regulation of cell growth by androgens as demonstrated by its inhibition by two androgen response modifiers; the nonsteroidal antiandrogen hydroxyflutamide (OHF), believed to act by inhibiting androgen binding to androgen re
## Background: We investigated the role of the transforming growth factor beta (tgf-beta) family in the neoplastic progression of the human prostate. ## Methods: Expression of tgf-beta mrna was measured by northern blot analysis of tissue extracts, and tgf-beta protein by immunohistochemical anal
