Objective Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) expression is closely related to the progression
and poor prognosis of colorectal cancer patients. In this study, we investigated the effects on …

AIM To study the changes of gene expression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and
hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFr) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissue and …

AIM: Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a multifunctional growth factor which has pleiotrophic
biological effects on epithelial cells, such as proliferation, motogenesis, invas-iveness and …

Background We examined the association of tumor-derived hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)
with the clinicopathological features of gliomas and investigated the effect of HGF inhibition …

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a potent mitogen for epithelial cells that promotes cell
motility and invasiveness. In this study, we report that the human esophageal squamous cell …

The aim of the present study was to examine the expression of hepatocyte growth factor
(HGF) in breast cancer and its effect on prognosis and sensitivity to chemotherapy …

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has different effects on different cell types. Recently, it has
been reported that HGF has an anti-proliferative effect against tumor cells including …

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), also known as scatter factor (SF), plays an important role in
cell: cell adhesion, cell proliferation, motility, and invasiveness of epithelial cells and tumor …

Purpose: Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) and its receptor, c-Met, play
important roles in tumor development and progression. In this study, we measured the …

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a crucial factor associated with development, progression
and metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC). However, its prognostic value remains unclear …
