HGF is a dimeric molecule composed of the α-subunit and β-subunit, linked by a disulfide bond. The C-terminus of the α-subunit is followed directly by the N-terminus of the β-subunit. HGF protects the epithelium, neurons and cardiomyocytes during organ diseases. This protective effect is mediated through anti-apoptotic signals via inhibition of caspase-3 activity or induction of anti-apoptotic molecules, such as Bcl-xL. In addition, HGF prohibits Fas-mediated apoptosis signals via sequestration of Fas and Met receptor on cell surfaces. HGF also elicits the regression of fibrosis in numerous organs, such as scleroderma, cardiomyopathy, vocal scarring, and peritoneal fibrosis.
