Abstract excerpt
It is known that down-regulation of cell surface platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptors accompanies transformation by SV40. In this work human embryonic lung fibroblasts were used as a model system to study the effects of SV 40 on PDGF receptor expression. It is shown that transformation by SV 40 early region leads to a total loss of PDGF alpha-receptor and partial loss of beta-receptor mRNA....
