Recombinant Human HGF R - 100 µg

Hepatocyte growth factor receptor (HGFR), also known as c-Met, plays an important roles in angiogenesis and tumor growth.1 C-Met is a receptor tyrosine kinase expressed by epithelial cells of the brain, kidney, liver and other tissues. Binding of its ligand, Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF), triggers receptor autophosphorylation, and activation of several downstream effectors including the mitogen-activated protein kinases ERK-1 and ERK-2, and PLC-γ. Activation of the c-Met signal transduction pathway leads to mulitple cellular responses including cell motility, scattering, proliferation, survival and angiogenesis.2,3
