## Abstract Chromaffin cells, the neuroendocrine cells of the adrenal medulla, play an important role in molecular, cellular, and developmental neurobiology. Unlike the closely related sympathetic neurons, chromaffin cells are able to proliferate throughout their whole life span. Proliferation of c
The autocrine hypothesis of neoplastic transformation originally stated that transformed cells escaped normal growth restraints by the production of and autostimulation by endogenous growth factors. This hypothesis followed the demonstration by DeLarco and Todaro [l] that murine sarcoma virus-transf
JORMA KESKI-OJA Two types of transforming growth factors (TGF) have been purified and well characterized, TGFa and TGFP. TGFa is a 5.6 kD single chain molecule that shows sequence homology to epidermal growth factor (EGF), binds to the EGF receptor, and has biological effects very similar to those o
