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 growth-inhibitory factors (suramin and transforming growth factor-beta), and expression of keratins and prostate-specific...
