Plasma Insulin-like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-2 of Critically Ill Patients Is Related to Disease Severity and Survival

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein (IGFBP)-2 regulates the bioactivity of the anabolic hormone’s insulin-like growth factors, which are decreased in sepsis and contribute to the catabolic status of severely ill patients. The circulating levels of

The insulin-like growth factor system and the progression of renal complications of type 2 diabetes. [PDF]

open access: yesDiabet Med
Abstract Aims Chronic kidney disease is associated with dysregulation of the insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) system. Alterations in IGF bioavailability, driven by IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs), may influence the decline in renal function. However, the longitudinal relationship between baseline IGF‐I, IGF‐II, IGFBPs and progression of kidney ...

Investigation of different molecular forms of IGFBP-1 using immobilised metal-, immuno- and lectin-affinity chromatography [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2010
Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 (IGFBP-1) is a member of a family of six homologous proteins that regulate the action of the insulin-like growth factors.

IGFBP-2 Signaling in the Brain: From Brain Development to Higher Order Brain Functions

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-2 (IGFBP-2) is a pleiotropic polypeptide that functions as autocrine and/or paracrine growth factors. IGFBP-2 is the most abundant of the IGFBPs in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and developing brain showed the ...

Correlation of tri-ponderal mass index with insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 in children and adolescents [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism
Purpose We aimed to investigate the relationship between the tri-ponderal mass index (TMI), a new indirect measure of fat mass, and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I/IGF binding protein (IGFBP)-3.

IGFBP-2 and aging: a 20-year longitudinal study on IGFBP-2, IGF-I, BMI, insulin sensitivity and mortality in an aging population

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Endocrinology, 2019
Objective: Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-2 (IGFBP-2) concentrations are low in subjects with metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. Intriguingly, recent studies have demonstrated an association between high IGFBP-2 concentrations and ...

Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein 7 Mediates Glioma Cell Growth and Migration

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2008
Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7 (IGFBP-7) is the only member of the IGFBP superfamily that binds strongly to insulin, suggesting that IGFBP-7 may have different functions from other IGFBPs.

IGFBP-5 Promotes Fibrosis via Increasing Its Own Expression and That of Other Pro-fibrotic Mediators

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Pulmonary fibrosis is a hallmark of diseases such as systemic sclerosis (SSc, scleroderma) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). To date, the therapeutic options for patients with pulmonary fibrosis are limited, and organ transplantation remains the ...

Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins initiate cell death and extracellular matrix remodeling in the mammary gland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have demonstrated that insulin-like growth factor binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) production by mammary epithelial cells increases dramatically during forced involution of the mammary gland in rats, mice and pigs.
