Insulin-like growth factor-II in the cycle of life [PDF]

open access: yesBiomedical Reviews, 1996
The insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) play important roles in growth and development. They are structurally homologous to proinsulin and can interact with the type I and type II IGF receptors and, to a lesser extent, the insulin receptor.

Probing Receptor Specificity by Sampling the Conformational Space of the Insulin-like Growth Factor II C-domain. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Biol Chem, 2016
Insulin and insulin-like growth factors I and II are closely related protein hormones. Their distinct evolution has resulted in different yet overlapping biological functions with insulin becoming a key regulator of metabolism, whereas insulin-like ...

Insulin-Like Growth Factor II

open access: yesDefinitions, 2020
Insulin-like growth factor II (180 aa, ~20 kDa) is encoded by the human IGF2 gene. This protein plays a role in cellular growth, development, and mitogenesis.

How IGF-II Binds to the Human Type 1 Insulin-like Growth Factor Receptor. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Human type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) signals chiefly in response to the binding of insulin-like growth factor I. Relatively little is known about the role of insulin-like growth factor II signaling via IGF-1R, despite the affinity of

Malignant fibroma presenting as a hypoglycemia and coma in a 45‐year‐old male patient: A case report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, 2022
Solitary fibrous tumors (SFTs) are a rare group of spindle cell neoplasm of submesothelial origin with malignant potential and can present as hypoglycemia secondary to excess secretion of insulin‐like growth factor II (IGF‐II) from the tumor.

Mapping of the insulin-like growth factor II binding site of the Type I insulin-like growth factor receptor by alanine scanning mutagenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The Type I insulin-like growth factor receptor is a physiological receptor for insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II). To characterize the molecular basis of the receptor's ligand binding properties, we have examined the effects of alanine mutations of ...
