Modulation of megakaryocytopoiesis by human basic fibroblast growth factor.
Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) may act to modulate hematopoiesis in addition to its effects on mesenchymal cells. We studied the effects of bFGF on human and murine primary marrow megakaryocytes. bFGF modestly enhanced the size of the human megakaryocyte colony-forming unit (CFU-MK) and cell numbers per colony, in combination with interleukin-3 (IL-3) or granulocyte-macrophage colony sti...
متن کاملBasic Fibroblast Growth Factor Melanocytic Cells by Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Modulation of Angiogenesis and Tumorigenicity of Human
Human melanoma cells express two prominent angiogenic factors, e.g., vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF/fibroblast growth factor-2). In this study, we report on the relative contribution of these two factors to in vitro and in vivo growth of a tumorigenic melanoma cell line (WM164) and nontumorigenic, immortalized melanocytes (FM516SV). Overexpres...

متن کاملBasic fibroblast growth factor in human prostate cancer cells.
To increase our understanding of the potential role of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in malignant progression of prostate cancer, we determined the production of bFGF, the expression of FGF receptor (flg), and the response to exogenous bFGF in LNCaP, DU 145, and PC 3 cells. We observed that these three prostate cancer cell lines, which differed in their dependence on androgens for growt...
متن کاملO-20: The Combination of Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor and Follicular Stimulating Hormone Promotes Human Follicle Development In Vitro Culture
Background Fertility preservation is an important part of scientific study in the field of reproductive medicine. Ovarian cryopreservation and in vitro follicles culture provide option for fertility conservation in older women or cancer patients. Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) or FGF-2, is member of fibroblast growth factors family which play critical roles in cell migration proliferatio...
