## Abstract The production of the leukemic cell‐growth‐promoting factor (LGF) in TGF‐β1‐treated fibroblast cells was studied. BALB/c3T3 mouse fibroblast(3T3) cells cultured in Eagle's medium containing a low concentration of TGF‐β1 (0.04‐1 ng/ml) secreted 3‐5 times more LGF than the cells cultured

✦ Synopsis
The presence of transforming growth factor PI (TGF-PI) for 24 or 48 h stimulated DNA synthesis, the percentage of cells in the S + GJM phases of the cell cycle, and cell number, as compared to quiescent cells. The mitogenic capacity of TGF-

## BACKGROUND. Apoptosis is induced by various anticancer agents or radiation through the tumor suppressor gene p53-dependent pathway and is also induced by other factors, including transforming growth factor-PI (TGF-0,). In this study, the authors investigated whether TGF-0, would induce apoptosi
## ABSTRACT Transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1) elevated the phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) mRNA abundance in primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. Although this increase was not as large as the rise in PEPCK gene expression induced by the cAMP‐elevating agents glucagon or isoproterenol
We have previously shown that transforming growth factor-b1 (TGF-b1) enhances the epidermal growth factor-(EGF) and transforming growth factor-a (TGF-a)stimulated motility of rat hepatocytes in an extracellular matrix (ECM)-dependent fashion (Stolz and Michalopoulos, 1997, J. Cell. Physiol., 170:57-
