Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Neuroinflammation [PDF]
Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) effects on aging and neurodegeneration is still controversial. However, it is widely admitted that IGF-1 is involved in the neuroinflammatory response.

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 ...

Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 Signaling in Mammalian Hearing [PDF]
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) is a peptide hormone belonging to the insulin family of proteins. Almost all of the biological effects of IGF-1 are mediated through binding to its high-affinity tyrosine kinase receptor (IGF1R), a transmembrane receptor belonging to the insulin receptor family.

Heart Smart Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 [PDF]
See related article, pp 680–693 The prevalence of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, and the associated cardiac pathologies are rising to alarming levels. Conventional medical therapies for the prevention and treatment of cardiomyopathy are less effective in patients with these metabolic disorders, and this is attributed, at ...

Changes in Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 Level in Patients with Sepsis and Septic Shock [PDF]
Background Despite many ongoing, prospective studies on the topic, sepsis still remains one of the main causes of death in hospital. The hormone insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) has a similar molecular structure to that of insulin.

Increased circulating insulin-like growth factor-1 in late-onset Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Background: Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease ( AD). Methods: We compared the level of circulating total and bioavailable IGF-1, by simultaneous measurements of IGF-1 and IGF binding ...

Insulin-like growth factor-1 is a negative modulator of glucagon secretion [PDF]
Glucagon secretion involves a combination of paracrine, autocrine, hormonal, and autonomic neural mechanisms. Type 2 diabetes often presents impaired glucagon suppression by insulin and glucose.

Antagonistic Autoantibodies to Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Receptor Associate with Poor Physical Strength [PDF]
Natural autoantibodies to the IGF1 receptor (IGF1R-aAb) have been described in relation to Graves' ophthalmopathy. Other physiological roles of natural IGF1R-aAb are not known. We hypothesized that IGF1R-aAb may be related to muscle development.
