## Abstract Our study examined the __in vitro__ and __in vivo__ responses of a newly discovered HGF/SF antagonist, NK4, on HGF/SFβpromoted growth of human prostate cancer cells (PCβ3). Nude mice were s.c. injected with either PCβ3β and/or HGF/SFβproducing fibroblasts (MRC5), and tumor size was meas
## Abstract Hepatocyte growth factor/Scatter factor (HGF/SF) is a multifunctional growth factor which can induce diverse biological events. In vitro, these include scattering, invasion, proliferation and branching morphogenesis. In vivo, HGF/SF is responsible for many processes during embryonic dev
It is becoming increasingly apparent that epithelial cell movement and changes in morphology are central to both development and regeneration of epithelial organs and are involved with pathological processes such as transformation of epithelia to carcinoma and metastasis. Hepatocyte growth factor (H
