Abstract

An inhibitory effect of alkaline phosphatase (LP) activity on short and long term fetal rat calvaria cell cultures was recorded with both acidic fibroblast growth factor (aFGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) at a concentration of 30 ng ml-1. This inhibition was well correlated with the nodule number on long term culture, except for EGF treatment in subconfluent cell culture.
