It was reported elsewhere (Gasparian, Grigorian, 1989a) that in the secondary chick embryo cell culture, after its superinoculation with additional homologous cells, the cell population density increased and the cell proliferation was activated. It has been shown in the present paper that the cell proliferation rate increase after inoculation of fixed cells, as well. The results obtained are discussed as a direct evidence for growth-stimulating effect of contacts between homologous cells.
