Hepatocyte and keratinocyte growth factors and their receptors in human lung emphysema
BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2005 Background Hepatocyte and keratinocyte growth factors are key growth factors in the process of alveolar repair. We hypothesized that excessive alveolar destruction observed in lung emphysema involves impaired expression of hepatocyte and keratinocyte ...

Effect on the canine Eck fistula liver of intraportal TGF‐β alone or with hepatic growth factors [PDF]
, 1992 Transforming growth factor‐β canceled the hepatocyte proliferation caused by transforming growth factor‐α when the two substances were mixed and administered through a disconnected central portal vein branch after creation of an Eck fistula. In contrast,

NO sensitizes rat hepatocytes to proliferation by modifying S-adenosylmethionine levels [PDF]
, 2002 BACKGROUND & AIMS: Liver regeneration is a fundamental response of this organ to injury. Hepatocyte proliferation is triggered by growth factors, such as hepatocyte growth factor. However, hepatocytes need to be primed to react to mitogenic signals.

Studies on mechanisms of augmentation of liver regeneration by cyclosporine and FK 506 [PDF]
, 1991 Evidence could not be found of immune modulation of liver regeneration. The powerful immunosuppressive drug FK 506, which augments the response after partial hepatectomy in normal rats, had the same effect in T cell—deficient nude rats.

Hepatocyte growth factor, a key tumor-promoting factor in the tumor microenvironment [PDF]
, 2017 The tumor microenvironment plays a key role in tumor development and progression. Stromal cells secrete growth factors, cytokines and extracellular matrix proteins which promote growth, survival and metastatic spread of cancer cells.

Hepatocyte growth factor profile with breast cancer
Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2011 Background: The multifunctional hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is the ligand of c-Met receptor; it plays important role in mammary differentiation. HGF-Met signaling is a critical downstream function of c-Src-Stat3 pathway in mammalian tumorigenesis. Aim:
