  • Title: Stimulation of amniotic fluid cell growth by cartilage growth factor.
    Author: Golbus MS, Djalali M, Klagsbrun M, Kaback MM, Levenson RM, Epstein CJ.
    Journal: Am J Med Genet; 1980; 6(2):107-11. PubMed ID: 6108715.
    Abstract:
    Cartilage growth factor (CGF) stimulates the growth of primary and secondary cultures of human amniotic fluid cells. Over a 14--16-day period there is an approximately 70% enhancement in the number of cells in primary cultures and a 170% increase in secondary cultures. Neither the karyotype or the specific activities of lysosomal enzymes are altered by the presence of CGF in the medium.
