Analysis of Insulin-like Growth Factors and Insulin-like Growth Factor I Receptor Expression in Renal Cell Carcinoma [PDF]
The expression of insulin-like growth factors I (IGF-I) and II (IGF-II) and insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR) was studied in 137 clear cell, 23 chromophobe, and 20 papillary renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) using a tissue microarray technique. IGF-I immunoreactivity was detected in 110 (82.1%) of 134 clear cell, 8 (36%) of 22 chromophobe, and ...

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

Molecular evolution and functional characterization of Drosophila insulin-like peptides [PDF]
Multicellular animals match costly activities, such as growth and reproduction, to the environment through nutrient-sensing pathways. The insulin/IGF signaling (IIS) pathway plays key roles in growth, metabolism, stress resistance, reproduction, and ...

Background: The effect of the growth hormone on target cells is mediated by the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). IGF-1 binds to the insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) in blood and biological fluids.

Insulin-like growth factor-II: new roles for an old actor
IGF-II, traditionally considered as a growth factor implicated in growth of fetal tissues and cancer cells, is now emerging as a potential metabolic regulator.

The contradictions of the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor [PDF]
In recent years, the type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-IR) has emerged as a receptor that plays a very important role in the growth of cells, both in vivo and in vitro. The ability of the IGF-IR to induce mitogenesis and to promote survival of cells against a variety of apoptotic agents is well documented.
