Insulin-Like Growth Factor I, Insulin-like Growth factor Binding Protein 3, and Atrial Fibrillation in the Elderly [PDF]
The Journals of Gerontology Series A: Biological Sciences and Medical Sciences, 2013 Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) are involved in oxidative stress and atherosclerosis; however, the relationship between the IGF-I system and atrial fibrillation (AF) is not known. The objective of this analysis was to assess, the relationship between IGF-I and IGFBP-3 serum levels and AF ...

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]
, 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]
, 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.

Variation in Plasma Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3: Genetic Factors [PDF]
Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, 2005 Abstract Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) play key roles in cell proliferation and apoptosis. Whereas relatively stable within individuals, IGFs vary substantially between individuals, and a large component of this variation may be determined by genetic factors.

Role of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 in 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin-d 3 -induced breast cancer cell apoptosis. [PDF]
, 2013 Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is implicated in breast cancer development and 1, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1, 25-D3) has been shown to attenuate prosurvival effects of IGF-I on breast cancer cells.

Biosensor Measurement of the Binding of Insulin-like Growth Factors I and II and Their Analogues to the Insulin-like Growth Factor-binding Protein-3 [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1996 Most insulin-like growth factor (IGF) molecules in the circulation are found in a 150-kDa complex containing IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) and an acid-labile subunit, which does not itself bind IGF. Affinities (Kd values) between 0.03 and 0.5 nM have been reported for IGF-I/IGFBP-3 binding, but no kinetic data are available. In this study we measured

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

Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins initiate cell death and extracellular matrix remodeling in the mammary gland [PDF]
, 2005 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.

Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 Generation: An Index of Growth Hormone Insensitivity [PDF]
Pediatric Research, 1996 GH insensitivity may be an inherited condition or may arise as a consequence of disease of malnutrition. Laron syndrome is the most severe form of GH insensitivity, arising from an absent or defective GH receptor. Less severe forms of GH insensitivity, however, may exist, resulting in short stature but in few other features of Laron syndrome.

IGF-I and IGFBP-3 serum levels in patients hospitalized for complications of liver cirrhosis
Annals of Hepatology, 2013 Background. IGF-I and IGFBP-3 are part of IGF system and, due to their predominantly hepatic synthesis, they seem to correlate with hepatic dysfunction intensity. Aims.
