Effects of Hepatocyte Growth Factor on Collagen Synthesis and Matrix Metalloproteinase Production in Keloids

Keloids are pathologic proliferations of the dermal layer of the skin resulting from excessive collagen production and deposition. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) increases the expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1 and suppresses collagen synthesis to modulate extracellular matrix turnover....
