The antagonistic pleiotropy of insulin‐like growth factor 1 [PDF]
Aging Cell, 2021 AbstractWhile insulin‐like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐1) is a well‐established modulator of aging and longevity in model organisms, its role in humans has been controversial. In this study, we used the UK Biobank (n = 440,185) to resolve previous ambiguities in the relationship between serum IGF‐1 levels and clinical disease.

Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 Signaling in Mammalian Hearing [PDF]
Genes, 2021 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]
Hypertension, 2012 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 ...

Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 in Patients with Hypoglycaemia [PDF]
Annals of Clinical Biochemistry: International Journal of Laboratory Medicine, 1990 Plasma insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) concentrations were measured in a group of patients with hypoglycaemia due to endogenous hyperinsulinism, and compared with those in a group of patients matched for age and sex with hypoglycaemia and appropriately suppressed insulin levels. Insulin-like growth factor I concentrations were significantly higher

Changes in Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 Level in Patients with Sepsis and Septic Shock [PDF]
Korean Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2016 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.
