Pituitary Extracts and Steroid Hormones in the Control of 3T3 Cell Growth
Open accessAbstract
Results are reported showing that pituitary extracts stimulate growth of 3T3 cells, an established line of mouse fibroblast. Cells were cultured in medium containing an organic buffer (HEPES; N -2-hydroxyethylpiperazine- N ′-2-ethanesulfonic acid), which increases the serum requirement for cell growth. The pituitary growth-prompting activity is ( a ) not dialyzable; ( b ) thermolabile; ( c ) protease sensitive; and ( d ) enhanced by hydrocortisone (a steroid hormone). Activity was quantitatively assayed by measurement of stimulation of cell division or [ 3 H]thymidine uptake into DNA. The active species is probably different from pituitary protein hormones and it seems to be effective at concentrations observed for protein hormones in vivo . 3T3 cells transformed by simian virus 40 are not responsive to this activity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
