Hepatocyte growth factor stimulates neutrophil degranulation but not respiratory burst
Neutrophil function is regulated in part by cytokines with growth factor activities for different cell types. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a cytokine produced during injury to the liver and other organs. Neutrophils are numerous in such tissue injury sites and may be influenced by HGF. In the p...
