Serum insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 in premature rupture of membranes

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, 2002
Background.  The aim of the study was to evaluate whether the circulating levels of insulin‐like growth factor‐I (IGF‐I) and its major circulating binding protein, IGFBP‐3, are affected in premature rupture of membranes (PROM) and preterm delivery.Methods.

Transferrin Is an Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-3 Binding Protein

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2001
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) possesses both growth-inhibitory and -potentiating effects on cells that are independent of IGF action and are mediated through specific IGFBP-3 binding proteins/receptors located at the cell membrane, cytosol, or nuclear compartments and in the extracellular matrix.

Serum Insulin-Like Growth Factor Type 1, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-1, and Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-3 Concentrations in Patients with Thyroid Dysfunction

Thyroid, 2001
Thyroid hormones play a role in the regulation of insulin-like growth factor type 1 (IGF-1) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) expression, and both IGF-1 and IGFBPs have been shown to be related to the function and growth of the thyroid. Our aim was to evaluate serum concentrations of IGF-1, IGFBP-1, and IGFBP-3 in patients with

Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3

1994
In plasma and other biological fluids insulinlike growth factors are bound to a family of structurally homologous binding proteins (IGFBPs).

Effects of Alcohol and Menstrual Cycle on Insulin-like Growth Factor-I and Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3

Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, 2004
Abstract Alcohol ingestion and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) have been associated with increased breast cancer risk, the latter primarily in premenopausal women. We investigated whether alcohol ingestion altered IGF-I or its major binding protein (BP), IGFBP-3, in a controlled feeding study in premenopausal women.

Reproducibility of Serum Leptin, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I, and Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-3 Measurements

Hormone Research in Paediatrics, 2008
<i>Background:</i> Many epidemiologic studies examine the effects of single measurements of hormones, including those related to obesity such as insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) or leptin, on disease associations; however, few studies have determined whether these single values accurately reflect measurements over time.

[Insulin-like growth factor I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 in a steer with growth retardation].

DTW. Deutsche tierarztliche Wochenschrift, 1996
A case of growth retardation in a bull is reported. Serum concentration of insulin-like-growth-factor-I, insulin-like-growth-factor-binding-protein-3, insulin, C-peptide, T3, T4, and fT4 were low compared with a normal growing bull in the same age. The causes of growth retardation are discussed.

Serum Concentrations of Insulin-like Growth Factor-I and Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis

Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2000
Insulin-like growth factor-I is a liver-derived humoral factor, which has important anabolic and metabolic actions and is predominantly bound by insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3. Low serum concentrations of both insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 have been reported in patients with chronic liver ...

Use of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein 3 for the Evaluation of Growth Disorders

Hormone Research, 2008
A specific radioimmunoassay for insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3), developed against its binding subunit (IGFBP-3β), was used to investigate its diagnostic potential for the evaluation of growth disorders. Various factors were found to influence serum IGFBP-3.

Fluoroquinolones upregulate insulin-like growth factor–binding protein 3, inhibit cell growth and insulin-like growth factor signaling

European Journal of Pharmacology
Fluoroquinolones (FQs), commonly known for their antibiotic properties, exhibit additional pharmacological potential with anti-proliferative effects on various malignant cell types and immunomodulatory responses. Despite these observed effects, the precise mechanisms of action remain elusive.
