Genomewide meta-analysis identifies loci associated with IGF-I and IGFBP-3 levels with impact on age-related traits [PDF]
The growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis can be manipulated in animal models to promote longevity, and IGF-related proteins including IGF-I and IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) have also been implicated in risk of human diseases including ...

CDNA cloning and mRNA expression of the six mouse insulin-like growth factor binding proteins [PDF]
The insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) comprise a family of six distinct proteins which modulate insulin-like growth factor action. We have isolated cDNAs encoding the six mouse IGFBPs (mIGFBPs).

Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and IGF binding proteins axis in diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Increasing evidence suggests an important role of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-IGF binding protein (IGFBP) axis in the maintenance of normal glucose and lipid metabolism. Significant changes occur in the local IGF-I-IGFBPs environment in response

Obesity and breast cancer in premenopausal women: Current evidence and future perspectives [PDF]
There is raising evidence reporting an increased incidence of breast cancer over the past decades. Every year approximately 1.4 million new cases of breast cancer are diagnosed worldwide, with a mortality rate of approximately 450,000/year.

Animal insulin-like growth factor binding proteins and their biological functions
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I, IGF-II) action is influenced by until today known eight forms of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs).

Late Effects of Disturbed IGF Signaling in Congenital Diseases. [PDF]
The biologic effects of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) are mediated by specific cell surface receptors. IGF-1 binding to the extracellular -subunits activates the tyrosine kinase intrinsic to the cytoplasmic portion of the IGF-1 receptor ...
