The antagonistic pleiotropy of insulin‐like growth factor 1 [PDF]
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 as a Vascular Protective Factor [PDF]
Recent advances in cardiology have focused on proliferation and regeneration as potential cardiovascular defense mechanisms. Within this framework, growth factors are acquiring increasing importance; insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) emerges among them for its versatile pleiotropic actions.

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 ...

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.

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.

Insulin-like growth factor 1 and hair growth
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) has been identified as an important growth factor in many biological systems.[1] It shares considerable structural homology with insulin and exerts insulin-like effects on food intake and glucose metabolism. Recently it has been suggested to play a role in regulating cellular proliferation and migration during the ...

IGF-Binding Proteins: Why Do They Exist and Why Are There So Many?
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are key growth-promoting peptides that act as both endocrine hormones and autocrine/paracrine growth factors. In the bloodstream and in local tissues, most IGF molecules are bound by one of the members of the IGF ...
