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 (epithelial or myoepithelial), the mechanism of immortalization of the cells (SV40 or spontaneous) or the source of the...
