Mononuclear cells generate a variety of hormone-like proteins termed growth factors that are instrumental in the evolution and resolution of inflammatory reactions. Many of these growth regulatory molecules have multifunctional properties. For example, the mononuclear cell-derived growth factors, pl
Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) is a mitogen found throughout the gastrointestinal tract, but its role in gastrointestinal pathophysiology is unclear. The effect of recombinant KGF on gut growth and repair has been examined using a variety of in vivo models. Rats receiving total parenteral nutritio
