Insulin-Like Growth Factor II (IGF-II) Is More Potent Than IGF-I in Stimulating Cortisol Secretion from Cultured Bovine Adrenocortical Cells: Interaction with the IGF-I Receptor and IGF-Binding Proteins [PDF]
, 1995 Although the stimulating effect of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) on adrenal steroidogenesis has been well established, the role of IGF-II in the adult adrenal gland remains unknown.

The Insulin/IGF system in colorectal cancer development and resistance to therapy
Frontiers in Oncology, 2015 The Insulin/Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system is a major determinant in the pathogenesis and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC). Indeed, several components of this signaling network including Insulin, IGF-1, IGF-2, the IGF-Binding Proteins, the

IGF-I receptor phosphorylation is impaired in cathepsin X-deficient prostate cancer cells [PDF]
, 2012 The cysteine-type peptidase cathepsin X is highly upregulated in several cancers and presumably promotes tumor invasion through bypassing cellular senescence. Here, we present first evidence that the underlying mechanism may involve the regulation of the

Expression of the insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate receptor in multiple human tissues during fetal life and early infancy [PDF]
, 1992 The insulin like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate (IGF-II/M6P) receptor has been detected in many cells and tissues. In the rat, there is a dramatic developmental regulation of IGF-II/M6P receptor expression, the receptor being high in fetal and ...

Polycystin-1 is required for insulin-like growth factor 1-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Cardiac hypertrophy is the result of responses to various physiological or pathological stimuli. Recently, we showed that polycystin-1 participates in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy elicited by pressure overload and mechanical stress.

Role of IGF-1 Receptor in Radiation Response
Translational Oncology, 2012 Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) is a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the development and progression of cancer whose activation strongly promotes cell growth and survival. IGF-1R exerts its main actions through the activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase and phosphoinositide 3-kinase pathways. In addition to
