Radioimmunoassay for Insulin-Like Growth Factor II(IGF-II).

open access: yesEndocrinologia Japonica, 1990
Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) levels in human plasma were measured in physiological and pathological conditions by radioimmunoassay (RIA) with biosynthetic IGF-II. This RIA was specific for IGF-II and cross-reactivity with IGF-I was 1%. The sensitivity was 15 pg/tube with 50% displacement at 50 pg/tube.

Proteolysis of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) by calpain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Calpains are non-lysosomal, Ca2+-dependent cysteine proteases, which are ubiquitously distributed across cell types and vertebrate species. The rules that govern calpain specificity have not yet been determined.

Regulation of human fibroblast insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding proteins by IGF-1 and cytokines, mechanisms of action and effects upon IGF bioactivity [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
PhDThe insulin-like growth factors, IGF-I and IGF-II, are ubiquitous polypeptide molecules that have mitogenic and metabolic actions in a wide variety of cell types, and consequently play a major role in mammalian growth and development.

Circulating Insulin-Like Growth Factor II and Colorectal Adenomas* [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2000
Abstract Circulating insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) may be risk factors for the development of colorectal cancer. On the other hand, IGF-II and IGFBP-2 are overexpressed in colorectal carcinomas.

Expression of the insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate receptor in multiple human tissues during fetal life and early infancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The insulin like growth factor-II/mannose-6-phosphate (IGF-II/M6P) receptor has been detected in many cells and tissues. In the rat, there is a dramatic developmental regulation of IGF-II/M6P receptor expression, the receptor being high in fetal and ...

The Role of Insulin, IGF-1 and PRAS40 in the Processes of Oncogenesis in Women with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Endometrial Cancer

open access: yesGalician Medical Journal, 2019
The objective of the research was to investigate the content of insulin, insulin-like growth factor-1 and phosphorylated protein kinase proline-rich Akt substrate of 40kDa and to determine their role in the activation of oncogenesis processes in women ...

Insulin-Like Growth Factor (IGF)-I and -11 and IGFBinding Proteins-l, -2, and -3 in Children and Adolescents with Diabetes Mellitus: Correlation with Metabolic Control and Height Attainment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
The putative effects of diabetes and metabolic control on circulating levels of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and their binding proteins (IGFBPs) remain controversial.

Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins initiate cell death and extracellular matrix remodeling in the mammary gland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We have demonstrated that insulin-like growth factor binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) production by mammary epithelial cells increases dramatically during forced involution of the mammary gland in rats, mice and pigs.

Re-expression of IGF-II is important for beta cell regeneration in adult mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background The key factors which support re-expansion of beta cell numbers after injury are largely unknown. Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) plays a critical role in supporting cell division and differentiation during ontogeny but its role in the

Temporal expression pattern of the insulin-like growth factor II and fibroblast growth factor transcripts in avian embryogenesis

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2008
In this study, the abundance of IGF-II and bFGF transcripts was estimated in the chicken embryos using the competitive RT-PCR analysis. Significant enhancements in the abundance of IGF-II mRNA were observed at stages HH1 and 5, and a new accumulation in ...
