Functions and regulation of circular dorsal ruffles.

abstract：:To investigate the transcriptional program underlying thyroid hormone (T3)-induced cell proliferation, cDNA microarrays were used to survey the temporal expression profiles of 4,400 genes. Of 358 responsive genes identified, 88% had not previously been reported to be transcriptionally or functionally modulated by T3. ...
