  • Publication number: 20050113284
    Abstract: The present invention revealed that the functional expression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/HGF receptor is suppressed through the binding of the HGF receptor to a novel mucin-like protein, leading to the inhibition of HGF dependent cell proliferation and regeneration/neogenesis of tissues and blood vessels. Furthermore, inhibition of the binding between the HGF receptor and the mucin-like protein was found to enable treatment of various diseases including liver diseases.
