Curcumin, the active ingredient of turmeric (Curcuma longa) used in culinary and medical practices in Asia, has immense potential for being used in cancer chemotherapy because of its control over the cell growth regulatory mechanisms. The present chapter throws light on the role of curcumin in modulating the various phases of the cell cycle and its ...

Physiological Reviews, 1986
The liver is a conditional renewal system, which in the adult organism undergoes minimal cell production and/or cell renewal. However, a reduction in liver cell mass, because of either actual cell loss or cell atrophy, evokes a rapid regenerative response tailored to replace the lost tissue.

Growth hormone regulation of follicular growth
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 2012The somatotropic axis – consisting of growth hormone (GH), the insulin-like growth factors 1 and 2 (IGF1 and IGF2), GH binding protein (GHBP), IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) 1 to 6, and the cell-surface receptors for GH and the IGFs – has major effects on growth, lactation and reproduction.

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the mechanisms regulating cellular growth. Many of the hormones that control the activity of one or another endocrine gland also promote the growth of that target gland. Hormones, such as insulin and growth hormone, affect many different tissues.

Abstract While multiple hormones influence somatic growth, the main regulator of postnatal growth is growth hormone (GH). Growth hormone is secreted in a pulsatile manner from the anterior pituitary primarily as a 22 kD molecule (although other forms may be found). The development of the pituitary gland, as well as GH gene expression, is

Role of Growth Factors in Regulation of Renal Growth
Annual Review of Physiology, 1993It is clear that a number of growth factors are synthesized within the adult and the developing kidney. Compelling evidence exists that several of these agents orchestrate the nephrogenic process. A growing body of data supports roles for one or more of these agents in the adult kidney as regulators of renal function, growth, and repair processes ...

Growth factors: Regulation of normal and neoplastic growth
The Journal of Pathology, 1993AbstractThis paper presents an overview of current trends in growth factor research. The first part of the review considers the current classification of growth factors and their receptors. A model of cell proliferation regulation by growth factors is then presented.

AbstractThis chapter examines plant growth regulators used for blueberries (Vaccinium spp.) in regard to their application and the factors that affect their performance. Current and potential uses of these substances (control vegetative growth, enhancement of leaf development, delay flowering, inhibition of flower bud formation or elimination of ...

Growth and growth regulation in the cichlids
Aquaculture, 1982Abstract Environmental factors do not vary widely all the year round in the tropics where cichlids are endemic. Conventional methods of growth monitoring and age determination such as scale and otolith annual rings are thus not directly applicable to them.
