1.	Wounds and Injuries (Trauma) 05/10/1994 - "Taken together with our previous finding that expression of HGF was rapidly induced after renal injuries, these results allow us to conclude that HGF may be the long-sought renotropic factor for renal regeneration and may prove to be effective treatment for patients with renal dysfunction, especially that caused by cisplatin." 01/01/1992 - "Moreover, HGF mRNA increases markedly in the kidney after various renal injuries, thus it suggests that HGF may act not only as a hepatotropic factor but also as a renotropic factor. "
2.	Acute Kidney Injury (Acute Renal Failure) 07/10/1998 - "Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a potent renotropic factor that has been shown to play important roles in kidney development and recovery from acute renal injury. " 07/01/1993 - "Hepatocyte growth factor may function as a renotropic factor for regeneration in rats with acute renal injury." 09/01/1993 - "Endogenous EGF as a potential renotrophic factor in ischemia-induced acute renal failure."
3.	Hypertrophy 01/01/1976 - "Is renal compensatory hypertrophy controlled by a "renotrophic factor"?" 01/01/1976 - "Letters to the Editor: Is renal compensatory hypertrophy controlled by a "renotrophic factor"?" 01/01/1974 - "In vitro evidence for a renotrophic factor in renal compensatory hypertrophy."
4.	Hyperplasia 10/01/1988 - "4. The results indicate that: (1) the renotrophic factor(s) crosses the placenta in mice; (2) its activity in maternal circulation following uninephrectomy is sustained for a relatively long period; and (3) fetal response to enhanced maternal renotrophin stimulation consists of increased renal dry weight and renal protein, formation of super-physiological numbers of glomeruli and cellular hyperplasia of the glomeruli." 01/01/1989 - "Renotropic factor may play an important role leading to nephron hyperplasia, but oxalate deposits in the renal tubules seem to be an important factor in the formation of these cysts."
5.	Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernias 05/01/1990 - "Pathophysiology of congenital diaphragmatic hernia: I. Renal enlargement suggests feedback modulation by pulmonary derived renotropins--a unifying hypothesis to explain pulmonary hypoplasia, polyhydramnios, and renal enlargement in the fetus/newborn with congenital diaphragmatic hernia."
