Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) induces cell motility and tissue remodeling of various epithelial cells through its receptor, the product of the proto-oncogene c-met. High levels of HGF/SF have been correlated with poor prognosis in human breast carcinoma. In this study, we examined

## Abstract Invasive human breast carcinomas frequently coexpress increased hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and its receptor Met, suggesting that establishment of an autocrine HGF loop is important in malignant disease. This study examines the expression patterns of HGF and Met activation during tum
We observed previously that each of seven cancer progression inhibitors suppresses the mRNA expression of some matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), but stimulates that of others, in breast cancer cells. In the present study we tested the effect of overexpressing other cancer modulators on MMP expressio
