title: The pharmacological mediation of epithelial cell proliferation.
abstract: In the past, it has been necessary for pharmacological intervention of epithelial proliferation to mostly be limited to non-specifically arresting or killing actively proliferating cells. As our understanding of the mechanisms involved in mediating the processes of growth and differentiation increases, we can hope to see the development of a new pharmacology, in which proliferation of individual systems may be regulated in a less drastic manner.
