Abstract

A study was conducted to examine the mitogenic effect of the dimeric form of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) on extracellular calcium entry. Digital video imaging of Ca2+ concentration in cultured human hepatic stellate cells revealed that PDGF induces a significant increase in Ca2+ concentration in high-density cultures in the presence of extracellular Ca2+. However, low-density cell cultures were less effective in inducing mitogenesis, suggesting that PDGF-induced Ca2+ increase is dependent on cell density and extracellular Ca2+ influx.
