Differential activity of 2-methylene-19-nor vitamin D analogs on growth factor gene expression in rhino mouse skin and comparison to all-trans retinoic acid. [PDF]
While all 2-methylene-19-nor analogs of 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1α,25(OH)2D3) tested produce an increase in epidermal thickness in the rhino mouse, only a subset reduce utricle size (comedolysis).

The urine as a diagnostic key for a homozygous EGFR mutation [PDF]
Primary inherited epidermal growth factor receptor defects have recently been described in severe inflammatory skin disease and diarrhoea case reports. We describe two case reports of female preterm newborns of Roma consanguineous parents who presented ...

The effects of growth factors on multicellular spheroids formed by chick embryonic retinal cells [PDF]
Retinal cells from chick embryos aged 7.5 days of gestation were cultured for two months in a non-adherent suspension culture dish to study the effects of growth factors and co-culture with retinal pigment epithelial cells on their differentiation ...

Different response to epidermal growth factor of hepatocytes in cultures isolated from male or female rat liver. Inhibitor effect of estrogen on binding and mitogenic effect of epidermal growth factor [PDF]
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis in hepatocytes isolated from the livers of male and female rats has been compared in monolayer culture. Plating efficiency, DNA and protein content, viability, and morphologic appearance were the same in cultures ...

GBM heterogeneity as a function of variable epidermal growth factor receptor variant III activity. [PDF]
Abnormal activation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) due to a deletion of exons 2-7 of EGFR (EGFRvIII) is a common alteration in glioblastoma (GBM). While this alteration can drive gliomagenesis, tumors harboring EGFRvIII are heterogeneous.

Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I and Epidermal Growth Factor Regulate Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 (IGFBP-3) in the Human Keratinocyte Cell Line HaCaT [PDF]
The human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT has a basal phenotype and secretes an insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding protein, IGFBP-3, which modulates its IGF-I response.
