Figure 5 Effect of growth factors on caspase‐3 activity induced by serum deprivation. Apoptosis caused by serum deprivation was suppressed by the addition of some growth factors to the medium. The concentration of EGF was 10 ng/ml, FGF 5 ng/ml, HGF 50 ng/ml, IGF 10 ng/ml, NGF 50 ng/ml, PDGF 10 ng/ml, SCF 50 ng/ml, and TGF‐β 1 ng/ml, respectively. Results are the mean (SD) (n = 5). *Indicates a significant difference from the result in serum (−), p<0.05.
