Guidelines for the Anti‐Obesity Assays of Food Bioactives in Caenorhabditis elegans
This Guideline uses Caenorhabditis elegans as a model organism to systematically explain and summarize the research strategies and experimental methods for the anti‐obesity effects of food bioactives. ABSTRACT The obesity has become a global public health problem and is closely related to a variety of chronic diseases.

The important role of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) in tumorigenesis has been well established. The classical model involves IGF-1R binding to IGF-1/2, the following activation of PI3K-Akt-signaling cascades, driving cell proliferation ...

Environmentally Relevant Concentrations of 17α-Ethinylestradiol (EE2) Interfere With the Growth Hormone (GH)/Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF)-I System in Developing Bony Fish [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether effects of environmental estrogens on fish growth and reproduction may be mediated via modulating the growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) system.

Animal models remain indispensable in the study of pathological scars, each offering unique advantages and constraints. Their integration with in vitro and ex vivo systems is key to developing personalized, clinically translatable antifibrotic therapies. Abstract Pathological scarring, manifested in the form of hypertrophic scars (HTS) and keloid scars

Bioprinted Excitable Tissues with Multistimulation Systems for Promoting Function and Maturation
This review provides an overview of stimulation strategies used to enhance the functional maturation of bioprinted excitable tissues. It addresses key limitations in physiological performance of bioprinted excitable tissues, outlines major stimulation modalities—including electrical, mechanical, optical, magnetic, ultrasound, and hybrid—and examines ...

Nucleolar localization of an isoform of the IGF-I precursor
Background Alternative exons encode different isoforms of the human insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) precursor without altering mature IGF-I. We hypothesized that the various IGF-I precursors may traffic IGF-I differently.

Acromegaly: the significance of serum total and free IGF-I and IGF-binding protein-3 in diagnosis [PDF]
We have studied the physiological and clinical relevance of measurements of serum total and free IGF-I and IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) in 57 previously untreated patients with active acromegaly (32 males, 25 females; mean age 47 ...
