Product Overview

Description	Recombinant Human Hepatocyte Growth Factor is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Gln32-Ser728 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.
Accession	P14210
Synonym	Hepatocyte growth factor; HPTA; HGF; SF; Scatter factor; Hepatopoietin-A
Gene Background	HGF, is a pleiotropic protein in the Plasminogen subfamily of S1 peptidases and contains 4 kringle domains, 1 PAN domain and 1 peptidase S1 domain. HGF is secreted as an inactive 728 amino acid (aa) single chain propeptide. It is cleaved after the fourth Kringle domain by a serine protease to form bioactive disulfide-linked HGF with a 60 kDa alpha and 30 kDa beta chain. HGF binds heparan-sulfate proteoglycans and the widely expressed receptor tyrosine kinase, HGF R/c-MET. HGF regulates epithelial morphogenesis by inducing cell scattering and branching tubulogenesis. It can also alter epithelium morphology by the induction of nectin-1 alpha ectodomain shedding, an adhesion protein component of adherens junctions. HGF regulates cell growth, cell motility, and morphogenesis by activating a tyrosine kinase signaling cascade after binding to the proto oncogenic c-Met receptor. HGF is secreted by mesenchymal cells and acts as a multi-functional cytokine on cells of mainly epithelial origin. Its ability to stimulate mitogenesis, cell motility, and matrix invasion gives it a central role in angiogenesis, tumorogenesis, and tissue regeneration.

HIV infection does not influence HGF expression within the conducting and exchange villi. PMID: 29886319 CAFderived HGF promotes angiogenesis. PMID: 29917165 These results suggest that gastric cancer progression is not associated with a unique signaling pathway and that a feedback loop may exist between the HGF/c-Met and Notch1 signaling pathways, which may result in therapeutic resistance. PMID: 29781036 a higher HGF serum level during hemodialysis treatment is associated with a slower loss of residual renal function PMID: 29227979 prolonged treatment of single HGF/c-Met or Hh inhibitor leads to resistance to these single inhibitors, likely because the single c-Met treatment leads to enhanced expression of Shh, and vice versa. Targeting both the HGF/c-Met and Hh pathways simultaneously overcame the resistance to the single-inhibitor treatment and led to a more potent antitumor effect in combination with the chemotherapy treatment. PMID: 28864680 TGF-beta negatively controls the HGF/c-MET pathway by regulating of stemness in glioblastoma. PMID: 29238047 Reduction of fibroblast size upregulates HGF expression, which in turn contributes to loss of collagen, a prominent feature of aged skin. PMID: 28826691 Results of our present study suggest that both IL-6 and HGF derived from Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs)could contribute to the intratumoral androgen metabolism in ER-negative breast carcinoma patients. PMID: 28831645 Hepatocyte growth factor as cardiovascular hormone: role of HGF in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. Review. PMID: 12201209 this study shows that decidual NK cells facilitate the interaction between trophoblastic and endothelial cells via VEGF-C and HGF PMID: 28653669 We identify HGF, acting through the c-Met receptor, as the key polarity-inducing morphogen, which acts to activate b1-integrin-dependent adhesion. HGF and ECM-derived integrin signals co-operate via a c-Src-dependent inhibition of the RhoA-ROCK1 signalling pathway via p190A RhoGAP. PMID: 28888686 High glucose activated Met receptor in HK2 cells independently of HGF, via induction of integrin a5b1 and downstream signaling. This mode of Met activation was associated with tubular cell damage and apoptosis and it may represent a novel pathogenic mechanism and a treatment target in diabetic nephropathy. PMID: 28819999 results show that HGF was involved in regulating Chk1 phosphorylation, and further demonstrate that AKT activity was responsible for this HGF-induced Chk1 phosphorylation.

PMID: 28595915 EGF-mediated lysosome trafficking, protease secretion, and invasion is regulated by the activity of p38 mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPK) and sodium hydrogen exchangers (NHEs). Interestingly, EGF stimulates anterograde lysosome trafficking through a different mechanism than previously reported for HGF, suggesting that there are redundant signaling pathways that control lysosome positioning PMID: 28978320 HGF/c-MET pathway mediates VEGFR inhibitor resistance and vascular remodeling in NSCLC. PMID: 28559461 We also propose that full-length HGF and HGF-NK1 convey desirable wound healing properties, whilst fibroblasts preferentially expressing more HGF-NK2 readily undergo TGF-beta-driven differentiation into myofibroblasts. PMID: 28837064 In conclusion, these findings indicate that CMs derived from primary culture of NPC fractions of BA liver contain a large amount of active HGF, which may activate hepatic stem/progenitor cells and promote the appearance of hepatocyte-like cells or their clusters through HGF/c-Met signaling. PMID: 28364348 Oxidative stress contributes to HGF-dependent pro-senescence activity of ovarian cancer cells. PMID: 28652056 These results hold promise that dual targeting of HGF and MET by combining extracellular ligand inhibitors with intracellular MET TKIs could be an effective intervention strategy for cancer patients who have acquired resistance that is dependent on total MET protein. PMID: 28341789 cabozantinib suppressed MMP1 expression by blocking HGF-MET signaling and that HGF-MET-MMP1 signaling is involved in the invasiveness and proliferation of BCa cells. These results suggest that cabozantinib might prove useful for future treatment of muscle-invasive BCa. PMID: 28013036 The results suggested that HGF may inhibit TEMT by inhibiting AngII through the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in HK2 cells and HGF may prevent apoptosis induced by AngII. The present study provides a basis for understanding the mechanisms involved in the inhibition of TEMT by HGF, which requires further investigation PMID: 28447719 The identification of novel small-molecule inhibitors of microtubule polymerization highlights the role of the microtubule cytoskeleton in HGF-induced epithelial scattering. PMID: 27245142 miRNA-200a expression was inverse correlation with HGF expression in stromal fibroblasts. High miRNA-200a and low HGF expression in stromal fibroblasts may predict a good prognosis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer. PMID: 27374174 Activation of proHGF by St14 induces mouse embryonic stem cell differentiation.

PMID: 27552115 The hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-MET receptor tyrosine kinase signaling pathway PMID: 26822708 MiRNA199a-3p suppresses tumor growth, migration, invasion and angiogenesis in hepatocellular carcinoma by targeting VEGFA, VEGFR1, VEGFR2, HGF and MMP2 PMID: 28358369 High HGF expression is associated with castration-resistant progression in androgen dependent metastatic prostate cancer. PMID: 27599544 miR-26a/mir-26b could suppress tumorigenesis and angiogenesis by targeting the HGF-VEGF axis, and could serve as a potential treatment modality for targeted therapy in the clinical treatment of gastric cancer. PMID: 28738343 Which control critical events for colonization such as HGF/Met axis and Wwox, as therapy of bone metastasis. PMID: 28151481 Data suggest that HGF, IL-20, and IL-22 in the serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients before chemotherapy may be a prognostic of cancer progression. PMID: 27573644 Studies indicate that the over-expression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is valuable in colorectal cancer (CRC) prognosis. PMID: 28423584 These results establish HGF/C-Met as a central organizing signal in blood vessel-directed tumor cell migration in vivo and highlight a promising role for C-Met inhibitors in blocking tumor cell streaming and metastasis in vivo, and for use in human trials. PMID: 27893712 Furthermore, activation of HGF/Met signaling increased the expression and transcriptional activity of FOXM1, and the cross talk between FOXM1 and HGF/Met signaling promoted pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA)growth and resistance to Met inhibition PMID: 26876216 These data suggest that paxillin appears to influence major cell functions in a diverse range of prostate and breast cancer models. The responsiveness of cells to environmental factors such as HGF or BME may be influenced by paxillin status, although this seems to be dependent on cell type PMID: 28739717 Fibronectin and Hepatocyte Growth Factor were shown to be produced by lung fibroblasts and, furthermore, to enhance malignant pleural mesothelioma cell migration and invasion PMID: 28476806 Glioblastoma patients with high expression of hepatocyte growth factor or unmethylated O(6)-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase may benefit from onartuzumab plus bevacizumab chemotherapy. PMID: 27918718 Plasma levels of HGF in PAH patients with mild disease were significantly higher than those in healthy controls, suggesting that plasma HGF has potential utility as a diagnostic biomarker for early PAH. PMID: 27342109 Blood HGF was significantly higher in chronic hepatitis C patients with liver fibrosis compared to those without fibrosis. PMID: 27930387 In summary, a decrease in VEGF-A and an increase in sVEGFR1 during chemotherapy and bevacizumab exposure can contribute to both chemotherapy (due to c-MET/b-catenin activation) and bevacizumab (due to low VEGF requirements) resistance. Because HGF levels decrease also during acquired resistance, alternative strategies to HGF-ligand inhibition should be investigated PMID: 28621236 We found the roles of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) signaling in stria vascularis development for the first time and that lack of HGF signaling in the inner ear leads to profound hearing loss in the mouse. Our findings reveal a novel mechanism that may underlie human deafness DFNB39 and DFNB97.

PMID: 28475003 Potential immune markers, including interleukin 1 receptor antagonist, interferon gamma-inducible protein 10, hepatocyte growth factor, soluble p75 tumor necrosis factor alpha receptor, vascular cell adhesion molecule 1, and matrix metalloproteinase 2, were significantly associated with significant plasma leakage during Dengue virus infection. PMID: 28077582 Results indicated that HGF may promote angiogenesis by not only increasing the expression of VEGF but also by decreasing the expression of an angiostatic chemokine, CXCL10 in keratinocytes. PMID: 27718226 overexpression of HGF resulted in resistance to c-MET tyrosine kinase inhibitors through an autocrine manner in gastric cancer cells PMID: 28314274

Proteins are sensitive to heat, and freeze-drying can preserve the activity of the majority of proteins. It improves protein stability, extends storage time, and reduces shipping costs. However, freeze-drying can also lead to the loss of the active portion of the protein and cause aggregation and denaturation issues. Nonetheless, these adverse effects can be minimized by incorporating protective agents such as stabilizers, additives, and excipients, and by carefully controlling various lyophilization conditions.

Commonly used protectant include saccharides, polyols, polymers, surfactants, some proteins and amino acids etc. We usually add 8% (mass ratio by volume) of trehalose and mannitol as lyoprotectant. Trehalose can significantly prevent the alter of the protein secondary structure, the extension and aggregation of proteins during freeze-drying process; mannitol is also a universal applied protectant and fillers, which can reduce the aggregation of certain proteins after lyophilization.

Our protein products do not contain carrier protein or other additives (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA) and sucrose, etc., and when lyophilized with the solution with the lowest salt content, they often cannot form A white grid structure, but a small amount of protein is deposited in the tube during the freeze-drying process, forming a thin or invisible transparent protein layer.

Reminder: Before opening the tube cap, we recommend that you quickly centrifuge for 20-30 seconds in a small centrifuge, so that the protein attached to the tube cap or the tube wall can be aggregated at the bottom of the tube. Our quality control procedures ensure that each tube contains the correct amount of protein, and although sometimes you can't see the protein powder, the amount of protein in the tube is still very precise.
