Corneal epithelial stem cells and transient amplifying cells are located in the limbal and corneal regions, respectively. In a serum-free medium with or without different cytokines, limbal fibroblasts consistently produced greater levels of keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) transcript and protein tha

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is essential for normal epidermal homeostasis; however, the role of IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs), regulators of IGF action, remains unclear. Here we examine the regulation of human keratinocyte-produced IGFBPs by epidermal growth factor (EGF), transforming growt
Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF) contributes to the malignant progression of human gliomas. We investigated the effect of HGF/SF on matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), membrane type 1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1-MMP) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), expressions
