Effects of IGF-1 on the IGFB proteins level in the serum of obese male rats [PDF]
Insulin-like growth factor binding (IGFB) proteins are a group of six highly conserved proteins that bind to insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and transport them through the bloodstream to the target cells. The IGFB proteins play an important role in regulating IGF signaling pathways by lengthening their half-life. Obesity and associated disorders are

Continuous and early prediction of future moderate and severe Acute Kidney Injury in critically ill patients: Development and multi-centric, multi-national external validation of a machine-learning model. [PDF]
Background Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) is a major complication in patients admitted to Intensive Care Units (ICU), causing both clinical and economic burden on the healthcare system. This study develops a novel machine-learning (ML) model to predict, with

TGF‐Beta Blockade Increases Renal Inflammation Caused by the C‐Terminal Module of the CCN2
The CCN family member 2 (CCN2, also known as connective tissue growth factor) may behave as a risk biomarker and a potential therapeutic target for renal disease. CCN2 participates in the regulation of inflammation and fibrosis. TGF‐β is considered the main fibrogenic cytokine; however, in some pathological settings TGF‐β also has anti‐inflammatory ...

Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer for women worldwide with a lifetime risk amounting to a staggering total of 10%. It is well established that the endogenous synthesis of insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) polypeptide growth factors are closely correlated to malignant transformation and all the steps of the

Increased concentrations of circulating insulin‐like growth factor‐I (IGF‐I) or IGF‐I relative to IGF‐binding proteins (IGFBPs) are associated with increased risk of developing several forms of cancer. Conversely, exercise is linked with reduced risk. This study aims to investigate the effect of a low‐intensity exercise program on circulating levels of
