Neuropeptides as growth regulators
British Medical Bulletin, 1989The classical role of neuropeptides as fast-acting neurohumoral signallers has recently been challenged by the discovery that many neuropeptides are also growth factors stimulating slow-acting mitogenesis. Their mechanisms of action have been studied in cell culture, and their cell-surface receptors have been characterized pharmacologically using ...

Regulation of Growth by Negative Growth Regulators
1989The concept of growth regulation by endogenous inhibitors was first suggested by studies on wound healing and carcinogenesis (see Wang and Hsu, 1986). This area of research has long suffered from the fact that purification of specific compounds that inhibited cell proliferation (or differentiation) of normal cells proved elusive.

De-growth theses point to a renewal of critical thinking able to link intellectual research projects and social movements. This paper provides an overview of some of the strands of arguments that are mobilised to criticise the ‘growth obsession’, and explains why issues raised by de-growth proponents are at odds with the regulationist research strategy.

The Growth Regulation of Keratinocytes
The Journal of Dermatology, 1992Taken together, all these results suggest that TGF-alpha and amphiregulin are the major growth factors for positive growth control, although we don't know which plays the central role. For negative growth control, TGF-beta is the major factor. However, it remains to be solved which isoform of TGF-beta is naturally involved in keratinocyte growth ...

Curcumin, the active ingredient of turmeric (Curcuma longa) used in culinary and medical practices in Asia, has immense potential for being used in cancer chemotherapy because of its control over the cell growth regulatory mechanisms. The present chapter throws light on the role of curcumin in modulating the various phases of the cell cycle and its ...

Growth Factors and Regulation of Cell Growth
Annual Review of Medicine, 1982A new class of polypeptide hormones known collectively as growth factors has been identified. These polypeptides are able to stimulate DNA synthesis and mitosis of cells cultured in vitro. Growth factors have been isolated from several sources, including platelets, submaxillary glands, pituitary, brain, and medium conditioned by cells grown in vitro ...

Growth regulation by nerve growth factor
Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 1979Although a great deal of descriptive information has been obtained about the actions of nerve growth factor on its target tissues, its structure, its receptors, and even its biosynthesis, there is no clear understanding, as yet, of the intracellular events mediating its transcriptional involvements.

Physiological Reviews, 1986
The liver is a conditional renewal system, which in the adult organism undergoes minimal cell production and/or cell renewal. However, a reduction in liver cell mass, because of either actual cell loss or cell atrophy, evokes a rapid regenerative response tailored to replace the lost tissue.

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the mechanisms regulating cellular growth. Many of the hormones that control the activity of one or another endocrine gland also promote the growth of that target gland. Hormones, such as insulin and growth hormone, affect many different tissues.

Growth hormone regulation of follicular growth
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 2012The somatotropic axis – consisting of growth hormone (GH), the insulin-like growth factors 1 and 2 (IGF1 and IGF2), GH binding protein (GHBP), IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) 1 to 6, and the cell-surface receptors for GH and the IGFs – has major effects on growth, lactation and reproduction.
