KGF and EGF differentially regulate the phenotype of prostatic epithelial cells.

Growth regulation - 1 Mar 1996

Peehl D M, Wong S T, Rubin J S

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies indicate that keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) acts as a paracrine factor in the prostatic epithelium and epidermal growth factor (EGF) acts as an autocrine factor. In serum-free medium, KGF or EGF promoted similar growth of human prostatic epithelial cells. Response to two growt...
