In obesity, insulin resistance (IR) and diabetes, there are proteins and hormones that may lead to the discovery of promising biomarkers and treatments for these metabolic disorders. For example, these molecules may impair ...

During hypothermic preservation of cells (0-4°C), metab¬olism is diminished and energy-dependent transport processes are arrested. The effect of hypothermic preservation of hepatocytes in endocytic transport following ...

Objectives/Hypothesis. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a multifunctional polypeptide that plays various roles in embryogenesis and tissue regeneration and exhibits marked antifibrotic activity. The present study sought ...

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) also known as "scatter factor" (SF), was identified for the first time as a potent mitogen of primary cultured hepatocytes; it has multiple biological responses in a variety of cells including ...
