Expression of Insulin-Like Growth Factor I by Cultured Skin Substitutes Does Not Replace the Physiologic Requirement for Insulin In Vitro [PDF]
Clinical efficacy of cultured skin substitutes may be increased if their carbohydrate metabolism is optimized by understanding whether endogenous insulin-like growth factor I can substitute for exogenous insulin.

Systematic profiling of cancer‐fibroblast interactions reveals drug combinations in ovarian cancer
Fibroblasts, cells in the tumor environment, support ovarian cancer cell growth and alter morphology and drug response. We used fibroblast and cancer cell co‐culture models to test 528 drugs and discovered new drugs for combination treatment. We showed that adding Vorinostat or Birinapant to standard chemotherapy may improve drug response, suggesting ...

How ligand binds to the type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor
The human type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) is important for normal human growth and development. Here, the authors present the crystal structures of the IGF-1R ectodomain both in its apo form and in complex with its ligand insulin-like

Insulin-like Growth Factor-I Receptor and Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy.
Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is a complex disease process presumed to emerge from autoimmunity occurring in the thyroid gland, most frequently in Graves disease (GD).

EMT‐associated bias in the Parsortix® system observed with pancreatic cancer cell lines
The Parsortix® system was tested for CTC enrichment using pancreatic cancer cell lines with different EMT phenotypes. Spike‐in experiments showed lower recovery of mesenchymal‐like cells. This was confirmed with an EMT‐inducible breast cancer cell line.

The insulin receptor (IR) and the insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGF-IR) have a highly homologous structure, but different biological effects. Insulin and IGF-I half-receptors can heterodimerize, leading to the formation of insulin/IGF-I hybrid ...

Age-related loss of skeletal muscle function; impairment of gene expression. [PDF]
Mechano Growth Factor (MGF) is derived from the insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) but its sequence differs from the systemic IGF-I produced by the liver. MGF is expressed by mechanically overloaded muscle and is involved in tissue repair and adaptation.

Regulation of insulin and insulin-like activity in malnourished patients with carcinoma ventriculi subjected to total gastrectomy and personalized nutritional support [PDF]
Background: Insulin and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) activities are disturbed during critical illness. Time-course changes in the concentrations of insulin, IGF-I and IGFbinding proteins (IGFBPs) were monitored in this study and their correlation ...
