Homogenizing cellular tension by hepatocyte growth factor in expanding epithelial monolayer
Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) induces cell migration and scattering by mechanisms that are thought to tip a local balance of competing physical forces; cell-to-cell and cell-to-substrate forces. In this local process, HGF is known to attenuate local cadherin-dependent adhesion forces for cell-cell junction development and enhance local integrin-dependent contractile forces for pulling neighbor...
متن کاملAnalysis of Soluble Mesenchymal-Epithelial Transition Factor and Hepatocyte Growth Factor Serum Levels in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder
Background: Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) and its receptor, Mesothelial-Epithelial Transition (cMet) factor signaling, play an essential role in controlling synaptogenesis. Objectives: Because of the vital role of HGF and Met signaling in synaptogenesis and spatial learning function of the brain’s hippocampal region, we aimed to study the HGF and soluble cMet (s-cMet) serum levels in childre...
متن کاملRegulation of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) by hepatocyte growth factor in human tubular epithelial cells.
BACKGROUND Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a pleiotropic protein with renoprotective functions, which have been attributed at least in part to its ability to counteract the profibrotic effects of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta). A major downstream mediator of TGF-beta is connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). However, the molecular mechanisms of CTGF regulation by HGF have not yet...
متن کاملHepatocyte growth factor promotes colonic epithelial regeneration via Akt signaling.
Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) can promote the regeneration of injured organs, including HGF gene therapy by electroporation (EP) for liver injury. In this study, we investigated the effect of HGF on dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis and tried to clarify the regenerative mechanisms of colonic epithelial cells and the signaling pathway involved. Colitis was induced by dextran sulfate sodium...
متن کاملHepatocyte growth factor inhibits lipopolysaccharide-induced oxidative stress via epithelial growth factor receptor degradation.
OBJECTIVE Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) triggers sepsis and systemic inflammatory response syndrome, which results in multiple organ failure. Our recent reports demonstrated that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) attenuated angiotensin II-induced oxidative stress via epithelial growth factor receptor (EGFR) degradation in vascular smooth muscle cells. Here, we examined whether HGF can protect against s...
