  • Title: Human hepatocyte growth factor stimulates the growth of HUH-6 clone 5 human hepatoblastoma cells.
    Author: Miyazaki M, Gohda E, Tsuboi S, Tsubouchi H, Daikuhara Y, Namba M, Yamamoto I.
    Journal: Cell Biol Int Rep; 1992 Feb; 16(2):145-54. PubMed ID: 1312905.
    Abstract:
    The effects of human hepatocyte growth factor (hHGF), a potent mitogen for rat and human hepatocytes in primary culture, on proliferation of human hepatoma and hepatoblastoma cells were examined. Out of five cell lines; HLE, HuH-6 clone 5, HuH-7, PLC/PRF/5, and Hep G2, only HuH-6 Clone 5 cells were stimulated by recombinant hHGF. Both native and recombinant hHGFs caused dose-dependent increases in cell number and DNA synthesis of cells. This stimulation was strongly inhibited by anti-hHGF monoclonal antibody.
