Journal ArticleDOI
Growth factors from murine sarcoma virus-transformed cells.
J E De Larco,George J. Todaro +1 more
TL;DR: The sarcoma growth factors are a new class of polypeptide tropic factors that confer on fibroblasts in vitro properties associated with the transformed phenotype that are heat-stable, trypsin-sensitive, and active in nanogram quantities when tested for growth stimulation of untransformed rat and mouse fibro Blasts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transforming growth factors produced by certain human tumor cells: polypeptides that interact with epidermal growth factor receptors
TL;DR: Three different human tumor lines in culture, a rhabdomyosarcoma, a bronchogenic carcinoma and a metastatic melanoma, release proteins (transforming growth factors, TGFs) into the medium that confer the transformed phenotype on untransformed fibroblasts that enable normal anchorage-dependent cells to grow in agar.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nerve growth factor receptors on human melanoma cells in culture
TL;DR: NGF can be shown to increase the survival, but not the division, of melanoma cells maintained in medium depleted of serum growth factors, similar to its effect on cultured sympathetic ganglion cells and on other cells derived from the neural crest.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transforming growth factors: isolation of polypeptides from virally and chemically transformed cells by acid/ethanol extraction
Anita B. Roberts,Lois C. Lamb,Dianne L. Newton,Michael B. Sporn,J E De Larco,George J. Todaro +5 more
TL;DR: The properties of these intracellular polypeptides from both virally and chemically transformed cells are similar to those described for the Sarcoma growth factors previously isolated from the conditioned medium of sarcoma virus-transformed mouse 3T3 cells, suggesting the definition of a class of transforming growth factors common to tumor cells of different origins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transforming growth factors produced by retrovirus-transformed rodent fibroblasts and human melanoma cells: amino acid sequence homology with epidermal growth factor.
Hans Marquardt,Michael W. Hunkapiller,Leroy Hood,Twardzik Daniel R,J E De Larco,John R. Stephenson,G. J. Todaro +6 more
TL;DR: The reported results suggest that TGFs that compete for binding to the cellular EGF receptor and EGF may have evolved from a common progenitor.
