Transforming growth factor-beta enhances the extent of intercellular communication between normal rat kidney cells.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 25 Jun 1991

van Zoelen E J, Tertoolen L G

Abstract excerpt

Normal rat kidney (NRK) cells cultured in the presence of epidermal growth factor are contact-inhibited at confluent densities. In the additional presence of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta, however, cells undergo phenotypic transformation which is accompanied by a loss of contact inhibition. In this study, we show by means of the fluorescence photobleaching recovery technique and a scrape-loading dye...
