Product Description
Hepatocyte Growth Factor (HGF) is a multifunctional growth factor which regulates both cell growth and cell motility. It exerts a strong mitogenic effect on hepatocytes and primary epithelial cells. HGF synergizes with Interleukin-3 and GM-CSF to stimulate colony formation of hematopoietic progenitor cells in vitro and may, therefore, also modulate hematopoiesis. HGF Human Recombinant produced in CHO is a heterodimer, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain consisting an α-chain of 463 amino acids and β-chain of 234 having a total molecular mass of 80.017 kDa. The HGF is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
