Relationship between serum iron and insulin-like growth factor-I concentrations in 10-day-old calves [PDF]
, 2013 Newborn calves are often deficient in iron and progressive reduction in blood iron concentration occurs over the first weeks of life. Some reports indicate the importance of interactions among iron and components of the insulin-like growth factor system.

An association between lifespan and variation in insulin-like growth factor I receptor in sheep [PDF]
, 2011 Longevity in livestock is a valuable trait. When productive animals live longer, fewer replacement animals need to be raised. However, selection for longevity is not commonly the focus of breeding programs as direct selection for long-lived breeding ...

Regulation of insulin and insulin-like activity in malnourished patients with carcinoma ventriculi subjected to total gastrectomy and personalized nutritional support [PDF]
Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2016 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 ...

The IGF system during growth and differentiation of the mouse [PDF]
, 1999 The insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) were first discovered in 1957 by Salmon and Daughaday (1957). They found that in vivo administration of growth hormone (GH) induced a serum factor capable of stimulating sulfate uptake in cartilage.

Somatotropic Axis and Obesity: Is There Any Role for the Mediterranean Diet? [PDF]
, 2019 Obesity is associated with reduced spontaneous and stimulated growth hormone (GH) secretion and basal insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-1) levels-which in turn is associated with increased prevalence of cardiovascular risk factors.
