Induction of met proto-oncogene (hepatocyte growth factor receptor) expression during human monocyte-macrophage differentiation.
The met proto-oncogene encodes the cell surface receptor for hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and transmits its multifunctional signals such as regulation of cell proliferation, motility, and morphogenesis. These pleiotropic actions attributable to HGF are mainly reported on cells of epithelial derivation which express the Met receptor. The HGF gene, on the other hand, is expressed in mesenchymal...
متن کاملExpression of the c-met proto-oncogene and its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor, in Hodgkin disease.
The receptor for hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase that is encoded by the proto-oncogene c-met. Recently, c-MET was detected in Reed-Sternberg (RS) cells from Epstein-Barr virus-positive (EBV(+)) Hodgkin disease (HD). The c-MET, EBER-1, and LMP-1 expression in 45 lymph node biopsies and 12 bone marrow biopsies obtained from patients with HD was analyzed. In addit...
متن کاملHepatocyte growth factor/MET in cancer progression and biomarker discovery
Signaling driven by hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and MET receptor facilitates conspicuous biological responses such as epithelial cell migration, 3-D morphogenesis, and survival. The dynamic migration and promotion of cell survival induced by MET activation are bases for invasion-metastasis and resistance, respectively, against targeted drugs in cancers. Recent studies indicated that MET in t...
متن کاملNeoexpression of the c-met/hepatocyte growth factor-scatter factor receptor gene in activated monocytes.
Hepatocyte growth factor-scatter factor (HGF-SF ) mediates mito-, moto-, and morphogenic effects through the MET receptor, a membrane bound tyrosine kinase. HGF-SF/MET signaling is mitogenic for a large number of epithelial and endothelial cells and activates organ regeneration. HGF-SF transcripts have been detected in various myeloid cell lines. Therefore, the potential role of HGF-SF/MET sign...
متن کاملVascular origin of a soluble truncated form of the hepatocyte growth factor receptor (c-met).
Hepatocyte growth factor (scatter factor) is an angiogenic growth factor that binds to its cellular transmembrane receptor, c-met. Both HGF and c-met are expressed by vascular smooth muscle and endothelial cells, where HGF may exert autocrine and paracrine effects. We have found that human aortic smooth muscle cells (HASMCs) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) release a soluble,...
