摘要
角质细胞生长因子(KGF)从属于成纤维细胞生长因子家族。KGF基因表达受多种细胞因子调控。KGF与受体KGFR特异性的结合发挥其多种生物学功能:参与组织、器官的发育;参与皮肤、胃、肠、肾、膀胱、肺等上皮的损伤修复;减少放、化疗所带来的副作用,具有损伤防护功能;KGF与肿瘤密不可分。
Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) is a member of the fibroblast growth factor family. A lot of cytokinesare responsible for KGF expression. By binding with its receptor KGFR, KGF does its biological functions in repairprocesses of various tissues and organs, including skin, bowel, bladder, kidney, lung and so on. KGF can stimulatedevelopment of some tissues and organs. It also acts as a protective factor on injury induced by radiation andchemotherapy. KGF is concerned with some tumors.
