Cdc42, a member of Rho GTPases (guanosine triphosphatases), participates in cytokine- and growth factor-controlled biological functions in mammalian tissues. Here, we examined Cdc42 role in corneal epithelial wound healing and the influence of hepatocyte, keratinocyte, and epidermal growth factor (HGF, KGF, and EGF)-mediated signaling on Cdc42.
