Keratinocyte growth factor stimulates bronchial epithelial cell proliferation in vitro and in vivo

Keratinocyte growth factor (KGF), also known as FGF-7, is a member of the fibroblast growth factor family and a known epithelial cell mitogen. Michelson et al studied the influence of KGF on the growth of cultured human bronchial epithelial cells and on bronchial cells of rats treated with KGF in vi...
