Expression of scatter factor and c‐met receptor in benign and malignant breast tissue

Scatter factor (SF), also known as hepatocyte growth factor, is an angiogenic cytokine that stimulates epithelial cell motility and invasion. Its receptor is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase encoded by the c‐met protooncogene. Several prior experimental and clinical studies have suggested that SF might play a role in the development and progression of breast carcinoma. To investigate the possible involvement of SF and c‐met in the evolution of breast carcinoma, the authors studied their expression in sections of human breast tissue.
