Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins initiate cell death and extracellular matrix remodeling in the mammary gland [PDF]
We have demonstrated that insulin-like growth factor binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) production by mammary epithelial cells increases dramatically during forced involution of the mammary gland in rats, mice and pigs.

Association of Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 Receptor with EHD1 and SNAP29 [PDF]
Ligand-induced receptor-mediated endocytosis plays a central role in regulating signaling conveyed by tyrosine kinase receptors. This process depends on the recruitment of the adaptor protein 2 (AP-2) complex, clathrin, dynamin, and other accessory proteins to the ligand-bound receptor.

IGF-I receptor phosphorylation is impaired in cathepsin X-deficient prostate cancer cells [PDF]
The cysteine-type peptidase cathepsin X is highly upregulated in several cancers and presumably promotes tumor invasion through bypassing cellular senescence. Here, we present first evidence that the underlying mechanism may involve the regulation of the

The type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor and resistance to DACH1 [PDF]
The mammalian homolog of the Drosophila dachshund gene (DACH1) has been reported as a tumor suppressor in human breast and prostate cancers. It downregulates the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and cyclin D1. The signaling pathway of the type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) is known to be responsible for the development of ...

GnRH receptor activation competes at a low level with growth signaling in stably transfected human breast cell lines [PDF]
Breakthrough Breast CancerBackground: Gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) analogs lower estrogen levels in pre-menopausal breast cancer patients. GnRH receptor (GnRH-R) activation also directly inhibits the growth of certain cells.

Role of insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor signalling in cancer [PDF]
The insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1) signalling is highly implicated in cancer. In this signalling the IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) is unquestionable, the predominating single factor. IGF-1R is crucial for tumour transformation and survival of malignant cell, but is only partially involved in normal cell growth.

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