Type I Insulin-like Growth Factor Receptor Induces Pulmonary Tumorigenesis
Despite the type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) being highly expressed in more than 80% of human lung tumors, a transgenic model of IGF-IR overexpression in the lung has not been created.

Insulin-like growth factor-1 is a negative modulator of glucagon secretion [PDF]
Glucagon secretion involves a combination of paracrine, autocrine, hormonal, and autonomic neural mechanisms. Type 2 diabetes often presents impaired glucagon suppression by insulin and glucose.

Insulin-like Growth Factor-I in Muscle Metabolism and Myotherapies
The critical anabolic and trophic role of signaling by insulin-like growth factors (IGF) I and II via the type-I IGF receptor (IGF-IR) is reviewed throughout the life of skeletal myocytes.

Cardiovascular Disease and Insulin-Like Growth Factor I [PDF]
The research field of cardiovascular disease in regard to growth hormone (GH) and its mitogenic mediator insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) has a long and distinguished history and is still intensively studied. Medline searches reveal that more than 1000 articles have appeared, demonstrating the importance of IGF-I in development of (and for lesions ...

Plasma leptin and insulin-like growth factor I levels during acute exacerbations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [PDF]
Background Recent studies have provided evidence for a link between leptin and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α). Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) mediates the metabolic effects of growth hormone (GH).

Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and liver cirrhosis [PDF]
Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is a polypeptide hormone secreted by multiple tissues in response to growth hormone (GH). It is partly responsible for GH activity, and also has glucose-lowering and anabolizing effects.

In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.
