TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macro-autophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes.

TL;DR: Data suggest that the receptor encoded by c‐MET plays a physiological role in epithelial cell growth and that its expression is altered in human carcinomas.

TL;DR: Data suggest that expression of the Met/HGF receptor may add a selective growth advantage to a narrow subset of differentiated ovarian cancers in premenopausal patients.

TL;DR: It is proposed that the region on the ss chain of the receptor recognized by the full agonist mAb is crucial for optimal receptor activation and for the different biological responses of hepatocyte growth factor.

TL;DR: It is shown that both gh Relin and des-acyl ghrelin stimulate proliferating C2C12 skeletal myoblasts to differentiate and to fuse into multinucleated myotubes in vitro through activation of p38, and that C2 C12 cells do not express GHSR-1a, but they do contain a common high-affinity binding site recognized by both acylated and des
