Hepatocyte growth factor and melanoma: gene transfer studies in human melanocytes.

Melanoma research - 1 Apr 2001

Hamoen K E, Borel Rinkes I H, Morgan J R

Abstract excerpt

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), a fibroblast-derived protein that affects the growth, motility and differentiation of epithelial cells, is a mitogen for human melanocytes and has recently been implicated as an important factor for the development and dissemination of melanomas. To better define the possible role of HGF in the multi-step progression from melanocyte to melanoma cell, we used retrovirus-mediated...
