Scatter factor-hepatocyte growth factor is a protein secreted by fibroblasts which disperses colonies of epithelial cells and keratinocytes in culture. The factor is also a patent mitogen for hepatocytes, synthesized in the liver. Basic fibroblast growth factor, another heparin-binding factor, is most abundant in the brain but also plays a role in wound healing. Using a solution hybridization/RNAase protection assay, we have measured the abundance of messenger RNA for scatter factor-hepatocyte growth factor and basic fibroblast growth factor in granulation tissue obtained from subcutaneously Hunt-Schilling wound cylinders. The levels of scatter factor-hepatocyte growth factor messenger RNA increased after weeks 2 through 4 to a twofold higher level in weeks 5 through 7 after implantation of the cylinders, whereas no changes in basic fibroblast growth factor messenger RNA levels were noticed. At week 3 after implantation of the cylinders, scatter factor-hepatocyte growth factor messenger RNA levels in granulation tissue were more than threefold higher than in skin dermis fibroblasts but markedly lower than in the liver. The abundance of basic fibroblast growth factor messenger RNA was also significantly increased in granulation tissue compared with dermis but, as expected, markedly lower than in the brain. In conclusion, the gene expression of the scatter factor-hepatocyte growth factor, as well as basic fibroblast growth factor, is increased in granulation tissue. Because there was a time-dependent increase in the expression of scatter factor-hepatocyte growth factor, it is hypothesized that scatter factor-hepatocyte growth factor acts as a signal from fully developed granulation tissue to stimulate skin epithelial cells to scatter over the wound.
