Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I and Epidermal Growth Factor Regulate Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 (IGFBP-3) in the Human Keratinocyte Cell Line HaCaT [PDF]
, 1995 The human keratinocyte cell line HaCaT has a basal phenotype and secretes an insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding protein, IGFBP-3, which modulates its IGF-I response.

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.

Insulin-like growth factor I during growth in bulls [PDF]
Reproduction Nutrition Développement, 1989 In 10 bulls, changes in blood plasma concentrations of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF1) were studied during rearing and during the ensuing growth period. IGF1 continuously increased from 32 micrograms/l at the age of 15 d to 194 micrograms/l at the age of 307 d together with body weight.

Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and IGF binding proteins axis in diabetes mellitus [PDF]
Annals of Pediatric Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2015 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

Insulin-like growth factor -I deficiency, insulin sensitivity, and glucose metabolism [PDF]
, 2013 In children and adolescents, growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) act in concert to stimulate linear growth; however, the effects on glucose metabolism are in opposition. GH increases insulin resistance by lipolysis. In contrast,
