title: Platelet-derived growth factor induces rapid but transient expression of the c-fos gene and protein.
abstract: Exposure of quiescent mouse fibroblasts to platelet-derived growth factor induces mRNA from the c-fos proto-oncogene within 10 min followed by synthesis of nuclear c-fos proteins. These are amongst the earliest described nuclear events that follow a mitogenic stimulus.
