Abstract excerpt
The effects of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGFbeta) on two human neuroblastoma cell lines, LAN-5 and SK-N-AS, and one human glioblastoma cell line, GL15, were evaluated. Of the three cultures, only two, SK-N-AS and GL15, had a complete response to TGFbeta, with induction of the following ef...
