Question

Which of the following growth factor helps in the formation of epithelial cells?

• A. Epithelial growth factors
• B. Glial growth factors
• C. Fibroblast growth factor
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is A Epithelial growth factors

• Growth factors involved in regeneration phenomenon include Glial growth factor, transferring, Epidermal growth factor, fibroblast growth factors.
• Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a common mitogenic factor that stimulates the proliferation(rapid production) of different types of cells, especially fibroblasts and epithelial cells.
  
• Hence Epithelial growth factors help in the formation of epithelial cells.
• So, the correct answer is 'Epithelial growth factors'.
