Question | Answer |
Polypeptide GFs | inc cell size, increase mitosis (mitogens), increase survival, proto oncogenes--mutated genes cause CA) |
GFs | locomotion, contractility, differentiation, angiogenesis |
EGF | family proteins from platelets, macrophages, epithelial cells. Acts on keratinocytes to divide and acts on fibroblasts to produce granulation tissue. ERB-B2 (HER2/NEU) (receptor) |
TGF-a | (transforming). made in macrophages, T cells, keratinocytes. Sim to EGF; also effect on hepatocytes |
HGF | (Hepatocyte). made in mesenchymal cells; prolif of epithelium, endothelium, hepatocytes, effect on cell motility |
VEGF | Vascular endothelial- made in mesenchymals cells, inc vascular permeability, mitogenic for endothelial cells, key substance in promotion granulation tissue |
PDGF | platelet derived; made in platelets, but also many other cell types; chemotactic for many cells, mitogen for fibroblasts, induces repair, angiogenesis, another key player in granulation tissue |
FGF | (fibroblast). made in many cells; chemotactic and mitogenic, for fibroblasts and keratinocytes (epithelial cells); angiogenesis, would contracture, and to make ECM stuff that fibroblasts make |
TGF-B | (transforming). made in many cells, chemotactic for PMNs and many other types of cells. |
KGF | (keratinocyte). made in fibroblasts; stims keratinocyte migration, proliferation, differentiation |
IGF-1 | (Insulin-like). Made in macrophages, fibroblasts; stims sulfated proteoglycans, collagen, keratin migration, fibroblast proliferation-axn sim to GH |
TNF | made in macrophages, mast cells, T cells; activates macrophages, key influence on other cytokines |
