Serum human hepatocyte growth factor levels were measured using a newly developed enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit in patients with liver diseases. Serum human hepatocyte growth factor levels were increased in correlation with derangements of prothrombin time, total bilirubin and other paramete

The expressions of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and its receptor were studied immunohistochemicafly in a total of 156 gastric carcinomas; 26 early and 130 advanced. No EGF immunoreactivity was found in early carcinomas, while EGFpositive tumor cells were detected in 38 (29.2%) of the 130 advanced c

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), identical to scatter factor, (SF) is a secretory glycoprotein from fibroblasts which dissociates and increases the motility of various types of epithelial cells. After treatment of three gastric carcinoma cell lines (MKN-28, MKN-45 and TMK-1) with HGF (10 ng/ml), TMK-
