## Abstract Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a potent mitogen for mature hepatocytes, and it has multiβfunctional effects in a variety of cells in various organs. HGF stimulates DNA synthesis and promotes cell migration and morphogenesis in several cell types including the olfactory system. To cha
Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) is a multifunctional polypeptide which acts as mitogen, motogen, or morphogen. In this study, we examined the effect of HGF/SF on human hair growth using organ and cell culture systems. HGF/SF was found to stimulate hair length and DNA synthesis in ha
