Targeting the IGF-1R: The Tale of the Tortoise and the Hare [PDF]
The insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF-1R) plays a key role in the development and maintenance of cancer. Since the first links between growth factor receptors and oncogenes were noted over three decades ago, targeting the IGF-1R has been of great interest.

Insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor mediates photoreceptor neuroprotection
Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-1) is a neurotrophic factor and is the ligand for insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R). Reduced expression of IGF-1 has been reported to cause deafness, mental retardation, postnatal growth failure, and ...

The interplay between IGF-1R signaling and Hippo-YAP in breast cancer stem cells
Background Both IGF-1R/PI3K/AKT/mTOR and Hippo pathways are crucial for breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs). However, their interplay remains unclear. Methods Four triple negative breast cancer cell lines derived from CSC of two patient-derived xenografts ...

Deficiency of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor confers resistance to oxidative stress in C2C12 myoblasts. [PDF]
IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) signaling regulates cell growth, transformation and survival. Haploinsufficiency of the IGF-1R is reported to paradoxically confer resistance to oxidative stress in vivo and in cells cultured from Igf1r(+/-) mice.

Revisiting the IGF-1R as a breast cancer target [PDF]
AbstractThe type I insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor is a well-described target in breast cancer and multiple clinical trials examining insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor have been completed. Unfortunately, monoclonal antibodies and tyrosine kinase inhibitors targeting insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor failed in phase III breast clinical ...

Background Cellular responses to aging and oxidative stress are regulated by type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R). Oxidant injury, which is implicated in the pathophysiology of a number of respiratory diseases, acutely upregulates IGF-1R ...

Upregulation of IGF-1R expression during neoadjuvant therapy predicts poor outcome in breast cancer patients. [PDF]
The insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) may be involved in the development of resistance against conventional cancer treatment. The aim of this study was to assess whether IGF-1R expression of breast tumors changes during neoadjuvant therapy ...

IGF-1R as an anti-cancer target--trials and tribulations [PDF]
Type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) has long been recognized for its role in tumorigenesis and growth, but only recently have the tools for targeting the IGF pathway become available. More than 10 IGF/IGF-1R inhibitors have entered clinical trials, and these belong to three main classes: (1) monoclonal antibodies against IGF-1R, (2 ...
