Sentenece the gene occurs

12593448The role of epidermal growth factors (EGF) and transforming growth factors (TGF) alpha and beta as autocrine factors in inducing senescence of cultured HMEC cells were also investigated
12593448Supplementation of growth media by TGF-alpha induced significant increase in proliferation of target cells
12593448Addition of epidermal growth factors receptor (EGFR) antibody to cells exposed to media devoid of EGF and media supplemented with TGF-alpha showed marked suppression of proliferation of target cells
12593448The morphologic and phenotypic characteristics of target HMEC cells exposed to TGF-alpha were also found similar to those HMEC cells grown during primary culture, suggesting autocrine production of EGF and TGF-alpha by cultured HMEC cells during primary culture
12593448Exposure of senescent cells to media supplemented with EGF and TGF-alpha could not induce their proliferation
7778920This effect is most likely mediated by cytokines that stimulate keratinocyte growth, such as transforming growth factor alpha
7778920In this study, transforming growth factor alpha gene expression in cultured foreskin keratinocytes from donors varying in age from 2 to 82 years was analyzed semiquantitatively by two separate methods, ie, Northern hybridization and competitive polymerase chain reaction
7778920RESULTS: No pattern of decline in transforming growth factor alpha messenger RNA expression with increasing cellular age was observed by either analysis
7778920CONCLUSION: The results indicate that expression of transforming growth factor alpha by cultured grafts may not be significantly affected by increasing cellular age and suggest that, even in the elderly, cultured autografts may be effective as pharmacologic agents for wound treatment
8504493Autocrine production of TGF-alpha and TGF-beta during tumour progression of rat oral keratinocytes
8504493This study describes a new technique to separate transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) from culture supernatants using ion exchange chromatography; assays of competitive inhibition of ligand binding were used to quantify the amount of growth factor
8504493The autocrine production of TGF-alpha and TGF-beta was examined in oral keratinocyte cell lines derived from the palatal and lingual mucosa of rats painted with the carcinogen 4-nitroquinoline N-oxide (4NQO)
8504493Escape from cellular senescence (immortality) was associated with a marked increase in TGF-alpha production (cell line R2P) but tumour progression, as reflected by the development of anchorage independence in agarose gels and tumorigenicity in athymic mice, did not result in a consistent increase or decrease of TGF-alpha production compared to normals
8504493Four cell lines (R8AP, R1T, R3T, R1P), with different functional cellular phenotypes, produced two to three times more TGF-alpha than normals
8504493TGF-alpha production was inversely correlated to epidermal growth factor cell surface receptor expression
8504493The production of TGF-beta was unrelated to tumour progression, the expression of TGF-beta cell surface receptors or TGF-alpha production
8504493The results indicate that the autocrine production of TGF-alpha and TGF-beta are not accurate markers of tumour progression in the rat 4NQO model of oral carcinogenesis
