Hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor and its receptor c-met: localisation and expression in the human placenta throughout pregnancy

1 Dec 1996

Abstract excerpt

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), also known as scatter factor, acts via the c-met receptor resulting in pronounced effects on certain epithelial cells. We hypothesised that HGF would be important in placental development where the trophoblast represents a specialised barrier of epithelial origin. In this paper we examine the expression and production of HGF and its receptor in the human placenta throughout...
