Gene expression patterns of insulin-like growth factor 1, insulin-like growth factor 2 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 in human placenta from pregnancies with intrauterine growth restriction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Introduction: In this study, we compared insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-gene expression patterns and characteristics of glucose and insulin metabolism in human placenta from pregnancies with or without intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).

Growth Hormone Receptor Gene Expression Increase Reflects Nutritional Status Improvement in Patients Affected by Crohn's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2018
Background: We proposed to verify the role of growth hormone receptor gene expression in growth failure of children with Crohn's disease (CD).Methods: We measured serum levels of growth hormone binding protein (GHBP) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-

Primary growth hormone insensitivity (Laron syndrome) and acquired hypothyroidism: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2011
Introduction Primary growth hormone resistance or growth hormone insensitivity syndrome, also known as Laron syndrome, is a hereditary disease caused by deletions or different types of mutations in the growth hormone receptor gene or by post-receptor ...

Insulin Analogues for Insulin Receptor Studies and Medical Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The structure of insulin molecule was determined by Dorothy Hodgkin in 1969. Subsequently, it has been established that insulin must rearrange upon binding to its receptor (Insulin Receptor – IR).

Growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor system and carcinogenesis

open access: yesEndokrynologia Polska, 2015
The growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and angiogenesis. In terms of cell cycle regulation, the GH-IGF system induces signalling pathways for cell growth that compete with other signalling systems that result in cell death; thus the

Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins initiate cell death and extracellular matrix remodeling in the mammary gland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have demonstrated that insulin-like growth factor binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) production by mammary epithelial cells increases dramatically during forced involution of the mammary gland in rats, mice and pigs.

Mechanisms Underlying the Synergistic Action of Insulin and Growth Hormone on IGF-I and -II Expression in Grass Carp Hepatocytes

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
In mammals, insulin is known to modify growth hormone (GH)-induced IGF-I expression at the hepatic level, which also contributes to the functional crosstalk between energy homeostasis and somatotropic axis. However, the studies on the comparative aspects
