Presents recent research results on the role of growth inhibitory peptides and tumor suppressor genes in gene proliferation. Examines the transforming growth factor β family and the role it plays in growth and development; interferons, including the recently-developed interferon-B2 (also known as interleukin-6); tumor necrosis factors with biologic effects similar to the TGFβ family; and the role of certain genes in suppressing malignant phenotypes.
