Plasma Levels of Keratinocyte Growth Factor Are Significantly Elevated for 5 Weeks After Minimally Invasive Colorectal Resection Which May Promote Cancer Recurrence and Metastasis

Background: Human Keratinocyte Growth Factor (KGF) is an FGF family protein produced by mesenchymal cells. KGF promotes epithelial cell proliferation, plays a role in wound healing and may also support tumor growth. It is expressed by some colorectal cancers (CRC). Surgery's impact on KGF level...
