Correlation between IGF-2 and IGF-1 levels in type 1 diabetic Iraqi patients
BACKGROUND: Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by impaired β-cell function and insulin deficiency, with emerging evidence implicating dysregulation of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis in its pathophysiology ...

Correlation of tri-ponderal mass index with insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 in children and adolescents [PDF]
Purpose We aimed to investigate the relationship between the tri-ponderal mass index (TMI), a new indirect measure of fat mass, and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I/IGF binding protein (IGFBP)-3.

Low Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Level in Obesity Nephropathy: A New Risk Factor? [PDF]
INTRODUCTION:IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor-1) is a hormone involved in cell growth and other important processes. In the kidney, IGF-1 has a stimulating effect, increasing the blood flow and glomerular filtration rate.

Re-expression of IGF-II is important for beta cell regeneration in adult mice [PDF]
Background The key factors which support re-expansion of beta cell numbers after injury are largely unknown. Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) plays a critical role in supporting cell division and differentiation during ontogeny but its role in the

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...
