Regulation of cardiac autophagy by insulin‐like growth factor 1 [PDF]
Insulin‐like growth factor‐1 (IGF‐1) signaling is a key pathway in the control of cell growth and survival. Three critical nodes in the IGF‐1 signaling pathway have been described in cardiomyocytes: protein kinase Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), Ras/Raf/extracellular signal‐regulated kinase (ERK), and phospholipase C (PLC)/inositol 1,4,5 ...

Chronic inflammation and the growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor-1 axis
Interactions between growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and the immune system are complex, bidirectional, but not fully explained.

Biomarkers of systemic inflammation and growth in early infancy are associated with stunting in young Tanzanian children [PDF]
Stunting can afflict up to one-third of children in resource-constrained countries. We hypothesized that low-grade systemic inflammation (defined as elevations in serum C-reactive protein or alpha-1-acid glycoprotein) in infancy suppresses the growth ...

Revisiting the IGF-1R as a breast cancer target
The type I insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor is a well-described target in breast cancer and multiple clinical trials examining insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor have been completed.

The Fascinating Interplay between Growth Hormone, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1, and Insulin [PDF]
This review intends to provide the reader with a practical overview of several (patho)physiological conditions in which knowledge of the interplay between growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and insulin is important.

How IGF-II Binds to the Human Type 1 Insulin-like Growth Factor Receptor. [PDF]
Human type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) signals chiefly in response to the binding of insulin-like growth factor I. Relatively little is known about the role of insulin-like growth factor II signaling via IGF-1R, despite the affinity of

Elevated serum insulin‐like growth factor 1 in recurrent aphthous stomatitis
Over 100 million Americans experience recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) at some point in life. To develop targeted drugs for RAS treatment, it is critical to identify its etiology. We determined if serum insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1) and related

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

Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1: At the Crossroads of Brain Development and Aging
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) is a polypeptide hormone structurally similar to insulin. It is central to the somatotropic axis, acting downstream of growth hormone (GH).
