Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a multifunctional cytokine originally described as a mesenchymal-derived factor that regulates cell growth, cell motility, morphogenesis, and angiogenesis by activating its receptor, a transmembrane tyrosine kinase encoded by the c-Met proto-oncogene. hGF and c-Met are frequently co-expressed or overexpressed in a variety of human malignancies, including glioblastoma tumors and medulloblastoma; and their expression levels correlate with poor prognosis.
