Abstract excerpt
Phenotypic transformation of normal rat kidney (NRK) cells requires the concerted action of multiple polypeptide growth factors. Serum-deprived NRK cells cultured in the presence of epidermal growth factor (EGF) become density-inhibited at confluence, but they can be restimulated by a number of defined polypeptide growth factors, resulting in phenotypic cellular transformation. Kinetic data show that...
