Abstract excerpt
Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) affect proliferation and survival of many cell types, but their role in the maintenance of olfactory mucosa cells remains unclear. In the neonatal mouse olfactory mucosa, cell proliferation mainly occurs in the neuroepithelium and, to a lesser extent, in the lamina propria. To establish whether bFGF and EGF affect proliferation and/or...
