Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE Expression of both hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and its tyrosine kinase receptor met has been demonstrated in normal tissues and their neoplastic counterparts, implicating these factors in normal development and tumour progression. 11748645 2002
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Due to its role in tumor progression and therapeutic resistance, both HGF and MET have emerged as valid therapeutic targets. 28420162 2017
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Our results suggest that targeting the SF/HGF-c-met signaling pathway may be an important approach in controlling tumor progression. 10491431 1999
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE c-Met is a receptor tyrosine kinase that upon binding of its ligand, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), activates downstream pathways with diverse cellular functions that are important in organ development and cancer progression. 25887320 2015
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE The receptor tyrosine kinase MET is a receptor for hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and aberrant activation of HGF/MET signaling is known as one of the crucial mechanisms enabling cancer progression and invasion. 28474864 2017
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE The tumor explants display increased hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor expression and Met turnover, indicating that autocrine Met activation contributes to tumor progression. 7728766 1995
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE The expression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and c-Met is associated with tumor progression in many human malignancies. 18355439 2008
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The c-Met/HGF pathway is implicated in cancer progression and dissemination. 29458966 2018
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE The role of aberrant hepatocyte growth factor receptor (c-MET, also known as tyrosine-protein kinase MET)/hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) signaling in cancer progression and invasion has been extensively studied. c-MET inhibitors have shown promising pre-clinical and early phase clinical trial anti-tumor activity in several tumor types, although results of most phase III trials with these agents have been negative. 30649748 2019
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 AlteredExpression phenotype BEFREE Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)/ mesenchymal-epithelial transition factor (c-MET) signaling is involved in complex cellular programs that are important for embryonic development and tissue regeneration, but its activity is also utilized by cancer cells during tumor progression. 30513872 2018
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE We have previously shown that in dexamethasone (Dex)-treated CAFs derived from colon cancer, production and secretion of several factors related to cancer progression, such as tenascin C (TNC) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), were strongly suppressed. 29196164 2018
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a key growth factor linked to promoting cancer progression and angiogenesis. 24970050 2014
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Among the metastatic factors in the tumor microenvironment, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has been well known to play critical roles in tumor progression, including HCC. 28587113 2017
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE These results suggest that HGF/c-Met might exert their effects in tumor progression in association with RhoA and probably with TIMP-3. 21779788 2012
CUI: C0178874
Disease: Tumor Progression
Tumor Progression
0.100 Biomarker phenotype BEFREE Because PC-3 cells were responsive to BMS-777607 but not the anti-HGF antibody, the findings also indicate that under circumstances where c-Met is constitutively hyperactive in the absence of functional HGF, targeting the c-Met receptor remains a viable therapeutic option to impede cancer progression. 22639908 2012
