Activation of epidermal growth factor receptor/insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor-β-Catenin-CD44 pathway in periampullary cancer

open access: yesJournal of Radiation and Cancer Research, 2020
Background: Periampullary cancer (PC) is a global medical burden. Less than 5% of patients experience an overall survival of 5 years or more. The study aims to analyze the importance of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/insulin-like growth factor 1

The Role of Insulin and Insulin-like Growth Factors in the Increased Risk of Cancer in Diabetes

open access: yesRambam Maimonides Medical Journal, 2011
Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at increased risk of developing cancer. This evidence arises from numerous epidemiologic studies that relate a positive association between T2D and cancer. In-vitro and several in-vivo experiments have attempted to

Pleiotropic Genes Affecting Carcass Traits in Bos indicus (Nellore) Cattle Are Modulators of Growth. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Two complementary methods, namely Multi-Trait Meta-Analysis and Versatile Gene-Based Test for Genome-wide Association Studies (VEGAS), were used to identify putative pleiotropic genes affecting carcass traits in Bos indicus (Nellore) cattle.

Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 Receptor Targeted Fluorescent Imaging for Gallbladder Cancer in Orthotopic Mouse Models

open access: yesGut and Liver, 2022
Background/Aims: Gallbladder cancer is fatal, but fluorescent imaging technology can facilitate timely diagnosis and improve patient outcomes. Fluorophore-conjugated insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) targeted antibodies were used to ...

How ligand binds to the type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
The human type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) is important for normal human growth and development. Here, the authors present the crystal structures of the IGF-1R ectodomain both in its apo form and in complex with its ligand insulin-like

Growth Hormone Receptor Gene Expression Increase Reflects Nutritional Status Improvement in Patients Affected by Crohn's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2018
Background: We proposed to verify the role of growth hormone receptor gene expression in growth failure of children with Crohn's disease (CD).Methods: We measured serum levels of growth hormone binding protein (GHBP) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-

Insulin-like growth factor-1 mRNA isoforms and insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor mRNA expression in chronic hepatitis C

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology, 2015
To evaluate the expression of different insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 mRNA isoforms and IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) mRNA in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected livers.Thirty-four liver biopsy specimens from chronic hepatitis C (CH-C) patients were obtained before anti-viral therapy.

Growth Hormone–Releaser Diet Attenuates β-Amyloid(1-42)–Induced Cognitive Impairment via Stimulation of the Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF)-1 Receptor in Mice

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2009
We previously demonstrated that the growth hormone (GH)-releaser diet ameliorated β-amyloid (Aβ) (1-42)–induced memory impairment, but the underlying mechanism remained to be characterized.
