Growth Regulation by Insulin-like Growth Factor-I in Fish [PDF]

open access: yesBioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry, 2000
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is a mitogenic polypeptide that plays an essential role in the regulation of development and somatic growth of vertebrates, mainly by mediating growth hormone actions. It has clearly been established that the structure of IGF-I and its biological function has been highly conserved among vertebrates.

Insulin-like growth factor I during growth in bulls [PDF]

open access: yesReproduction Nutrition Développement, 1989
In 10 bulls, changes in blood plasma concentrations of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF1) were studied during rearing and during the ensuing growth period. IGF1 continuously increased from 32 micrograms/l at the age of 15 d to 194 micrograms/l at the age of 307 d together with body weight.

Gene expression patterns of insulin-like growth factor 1, insulin-like growth factor 2 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 in human placenta from pregnancies with intrauterine growth restriction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Introduction: In this study, we compared insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-gene expression patterns and characteristics of glucose and insulin metabolism in human placenta from pregnancies with or without intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR).

Estradiol, Progesterone, and Transforming Growth Factor α Regulate Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 (IGFBP3) Expression in Mouse Endometrial Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) Is Involved in the proliferation of mouse and rat endometrial cells in a paracrine or autocrine manner. Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP3) modulates actions of IGFs directly or indirectly.

Proteolysis of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) by calpain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Calpains are non-lysosomal, Ca2+-dependent cysteine proteases, which are ubiquitously distributed across cell types and vertebrate species. The rules that govern calpain specificity have not yet been determined.
