Insulin-like Growth Factors in a clinical setting: Review of IGF-I

open access: yesBiomedical Papers, 2015
Background and Aims: Interest in growth hormone (GH) is inextricably linked to the need for in depth understanding of the somatomedins (insulin-like growth factors) which are polypeptides structurally similar to insulin and with broad physiological ...

Insulin receptor isoform A and insulin-like growth factor II as additional treatment targets in human osteosarcoma.

open access: yesCancer Research, 2009
Despite the frequent presence of an insulin-like growth factor I receptor (IGFIR)-mediated autocrine loop in osteosarcoma (OS), interfering with this target was only moderately effective in preclinical studies.

Murine Models and Human Cell Line Models to Study Altered Dynamics of Ovarian Follicles in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
The manuscript examines preclinical murine and human models to study polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), delving into the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying altered ovarian follicular dynamics. It explores the cellular interactions involved in normal and PCOS ovaries and outlines the current and novel strategies in the search for preclinical ...

Plant basic 7 S globulin-like proteins have insulin and insulin-like growth factor binding activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Basic 7 S globulin (Bg) is a cysteine-rich glycoprotein present in soybean seeds. Mature Bg is composed of high- and low-kDa subunits linked by disulfide bonding. A ligand blotting experiment using [125I]insulin and [125I]insulin-like growth factor-I and

Microphysiological Glomerular Filtration Barriers: Current Insights, Innovations, and Future Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, EarlyView.
The glomerular filtration barrier (GFB) is the first step of blood filtration by the kidneys. The concerning increase of kidney diseases makes the development of new models essential. In this context, microphysiological glomerular filtration barriers focus on closely reproducing the physiological architecture of the in vivo GFB: podocytes, glomerular ...

Changes in cardiac phenotype in hypertrophy and failure: From receptor to gene [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The terminally differentiated adult cardiac myocyte cannot undergo cellular division. Growth of the heart in response to chronic hemodynamic overload therefore occurs through hypertrophy of the myocytes.

Regulation of Autophagy in Chick Myotubes: Effects of Insulin, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I, and Amino Acids

open access: yesThe Journal of Poultry Science, 2018
Autophagy, an intracellular bulk protein degradation system in skeletal muscle, is increased under catabolic conditions resulting in muscle atrophy. This study aimed to investigate the effects of insulin, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I, and amino ...

Parental imprinting: potentially active chromatin of the repressed maternal allele of the mouse insulin-like growth factor II (Igf2) gene.

open access: yesGenes & Development, 1992
The mouse insulin-like growth factor II (Igf2) gene, which is located on distal chromosome 7 (Chr7), has been shown previously to undergo tissue-specific parental imprinting.

Key Trends and Insights in Smart Polymeric Skin Wearable Patches

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Intelligent polymers, which respond to various physical and biological stimuli, are explored for the development of skin wearable patches in biomedical applications. Smart polymers, also known as intelligent or stimuli‐responsive polymers, play a crucial role in the development of advanced wearable patches due to their versatility and softness.

Insulin resistance and adiponectin levels are associated with height catch-up growth in pre-pubertal Chinese individuals born small for gestational age

open access: yesNutrition & Metabolism, 2012
s Background and objective The study was performed to determine whether catch-up growth is associated with the development of insulin resistance and to explore serum endocrine markers associated with the metabolism of adipose tissue in a Chinese ...
