Several growth factors including hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) have been implicated in the regulation of liver regeneration. Recently, we reported that heparin-binding epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like growth factor (HB-EGF) has hepatotrophic effects in vitro. We investigated the role of HB-EGF as
Although the ability of hormones and growth factors to stimulate DNA synthesis in rat hepatocytes has been investigated extensively, no such study of human hepatocytes has been reported. Here we describe a series of experiments to identify those factors that regulate human hepatocyte DNA synthesis i
