In the absence of streptomycin, minoxidil potentiates the mitogenic effects of fetal calf serum, insulin-like growth factor 1, and platelet-derived growth factor on NIH 3T3 fibroblasts in a K+ channel-dependent fashion

There is considerable evidence to suggest that the opening of K+ channels plays an important role in stimulating mitogenesis. K+ channel blockers have been shown to inhibit mitogenesis in vitro, mitogens increase cytosolic membrane K+ channel permeability, K+ channel openers stimulate hair growth in...
