Background Information
Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is the most potent mitogen of mature hepatocytes in primary culture. HGF is derived from a biologically inactive single chain precursor of 728 amino acids (pro-HGF) localized mostly on the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix. The mature form produced following proteolytic cleavage is composed of a 69-kDa α-subunit (containing four kringle domains) and the 34 kDa β-subunit, similar to the catalytic domain of serine proteases, but with amino acid substitutions in the active site. HGF is a pleiotropic cytokine which exerts a variety of effects on several cells, being involved in the regulation of many biological processes, such as inflammation, tissue repair, morphogenesis, angiogenesis, tumour propagation, immunomodulation of viral infections and cardio-metabolic activities. 
This antibody is used to  neutralize the bioactivity of  HGF.
