Localization of IGF-I and IGF-I Receptor mRNA inSparus aurataLarvae

General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1997
Studies of the ontogeny of IGF-I mRNA during embryonic and larval development of the gilthead sea bream Sparus aurata showed its expression during these early developmental stages. The present study applies in situ hybridization to localize IGF-I and IGF receptor mRNAs in 16-day larvae of S. aurata. Paraffin sections were hybridized with homologous RNA

The IGF-I/IGF-I Receptor Pathway: Implications in the Pathophysiology of Thyroid Cancer

Current Medicinal Chemistry, 2005
The biological actions of the insulin-like growth factor(IGF)-I are mediated by its activation of the IGF-I receptor (IGF-I R), a transmembrane tyrosine kinase linked to the Akt and ras-raf-MAPK cascades. A functional IGF-I R is required for the cell to progress through the cell cycle. Most importantly, cells lacking this receptor cannot be transformed

IGF-I-Induced IGFBP-3 potentiates the mitogenic actions of IGF-I in mammary epithelial MD-IGF-I cells

Molecular and Cellular Endocrinology, 1994
Limited information is available concerning the molecular and cellular mechanisms that regulate expression of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) binding proteins (IGFBPs) in bovine mammary epithelial cells. Here, we report on the autocrine mechanisms of action of IGF-I and hormonal regulation of expression of IGFBPs in bovine mammary epithelial MD ...

The IGF-I Axis in Thyroid Carcinoma

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2007
Insulin like-growth factor I (IGF-I) has been involved in the pathogenesis of a variety of human neoplasia due to the mitogenic and anti-apoptotic properties of its cognate receptor. In human thyroid carcinomas, we have previously documented an increased immunoreactivity of both IGF-I and the IGF-I receptor (IGF-I R) associated with up regulation of ...

Interaction of ovine somatomedin-C/IGF-I and IGF-I with specific IGF-I receptors on cultured muscle-derived fibroblasts

Acta Endocrinologica, 1987
Abstract. Binding of 125I-insulin-like growth factor-I and 125I-ovine somatomedin-C/IGF-I to monolayer cultures of muscle-derived ovine fibroblasts is described. Preliminary competitive binding experiments indicate that ovine fibroblasts possess independent cell surface receptors for IGF-I.

Overview of the IGF-I System

Hormone Research, 2006
• The IGF system is the major mediator of both intra-uterine and postnatal growth. • The IGF-I receptor appears to mediate the growth-promoting effects of both IGF-I and IGF-II. • The role of IGF binding proteins in mediating the growth-promoting actions of the IGFs is complex and remains incompletely understood.

Distribution of IGF-I mRNA and IGF-I binding sites in the rat kidney

Histochemistry, 1992
In the present study we have investigated the distribution of IGF-I mRNA and IGF-I binding sites in the rat kidney. The distribution of IGF-I mRNA was investigated using a simple and sensitive non-radioactive in situ hybridisation technique based on probe labelling with digoxigenin labelled-UTP followed by detection with conventional immunocytochemical

IGF-I binding to the IGF-I receptor is affected by contaminants in commercial BSA: The contaminants are proteins with IGF-I binding properties

Growth Hormone & IGF Research, 2008
To determine whether different albumins have an effect on IGF-I binding assays.We have studied the effect of five different albumins in plate antibody capture binding assay. For IGF-IR studies the IGF-IR specific antibody 24-31 was used and for IR/IGF-IR hybrid receptors the IR specific antibody 83-7 was used.

GH/IGF-I and Bone

2018
Growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) are relevant regulators of bone homeostasis throughout human life, acting on both the trabecular and cortical bone [1]. The anabolic effects of these hormones are important to reach an adequate bone mass during puberty and early adulthood—a critical determinant for the future risk of ...

Gene regulation by IGF‐I

Molecular Reproduction and Development, 1993
AbstractConstitutive overexpression of the insulin‐like growth factor‐I (IGF‐I) receptor makes 3T3 cells capable of growing in serum‐free medium supplemented solely with IGF‐I to the total exclusion of the platelet‐derived growth factor (PDGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors, the other two receptors that are required for the growth of 3T3 ...
