Abstract excerpt
The secretion of transforming growth factor alpha (TGF alpha) and the expression of cell-surface receptors for epidermal growth factor (EGF) were measured in a series of human mammary cell lines. The amount of TGF alpha secreted by the cells did not correlate with the phenotype of the cells (epit...
