  1. Regulation of hepatocyte growth factor receptor endocytic trafficking

    The Hepatocyte Growth Factor Receptor (HGFR/cMet) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that is essential for multiple cell responses, including cell proliferation, survival, motility and branching morphogenesis. Normal HGFR signaling regulates embryonic development, organ regeneration and wound healing, …

  2. hepatocyte growth factor inhibits glial scar formation and

    Formation of glial scars physically impedes growth of regenerating axons following CNS injuries such as spinal cord trauma. Glial scars also produce various species of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) that act as a potent inhibitor of axon growth. Thus, inhibition of glial scar formation …
