PACAP type I receptor transactivation is essential for IGF‐1 receptor signalling and antiapoptotic activity in neurons [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal, 2007
Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and pituitary adenylyl cyclase activating polypeptide (PACAP) are both potent neurotrophic and antiapoptotic factors, which exert their effects via phosphorylation cascades initiated by tyrosine kinase and G-protein-coupled receptors, respectively. Here, we have adapted a recently described phosphoproteomic approach

The Role of Insulin and Insulin-like Growth Factors in the Increased Risk of Cancer in Diabetes

open access: yesRambam Maimonides Medical Journal, 2011
Patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) are at increased risk of developing cancer. This evidence arises from numerous epidemiologic studies that relate a positive association between T2D and cancer. In-vitro and several in-vivo experiments have attempted to

Intervertebral disc degeneration in mice with type II diabetes induced by leptin receptor deficiency

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background The leptin receptor-deficient knockout (db/db) mouse is a well-established model for studying type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM). T2DM is an important risk factor of intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD). Although the relationship between type

Des(1–3)IGF‐1 Treatment Normalizes Type 1 IGF Receptor and Phospho‐Akt (Thr 308) Immunoreactivityin Predegenerative Retina of Diabetic Rats [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Research, 2003
Little is known about interventions that may prevent predegenerative changes in the diabetic retina. This study tested the hypothesis that immediate, systemic treatment with an insulin‐like growth factor (IGF)‐1 analog can prevent abnormal accumulations of type 1 IGF receptor, and phospho‐Akt (Thr 308) immunoreactivity in predegenerative retinas of ...

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

open access: yesStructure, 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 insulin-like growth factor II for IGF-1R being within an order of magnitude of that of insulin-like

Identification of a Resistance Mechanism to IGF-IR Targeting in Human Triple Negative MDA-MB-231 Breast Cancer Cells

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is associated with unfavorable prognosis and high relapse rates following chemotherapy. There is an urgent need to develop effective targeted therapy for this BC subtype. The type I insulin-like growth factor receptor

Novel Role of the IGF-1 Receptor in Endothelial Function and Repair: Studies in Endothelium-Targeted IGF-1 Receptor Transgenic Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We recently demonstrated that reducing IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R) numbers in the endothelium enhances nitric oxide (NO) bioavailability and endothelial cell insulin sensitivity.

Reversal of age-related learning deficiency by the vertebrate PACAP and IGF-1 in a novel invertebrate model of aging: the pond snail (Lymnaea Stagnalis) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
With the increase of life span, nonpathological age-related memory decline is affecting an increasing number of people. However, there is evidence that age-associated memory impairment only suspends, rather than irreversibly extinguishes, the intrinsic ...

Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-II- mediated fibrosis in pathogenic lung conditions.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Type 2 insulin-like growth factor (IGF-II) levels are increased in fibrosing lung diseases such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and scleroderma/systemic sclerosis-associated pulmonary fibrosis (SSc). Our goal was to investigate the contribution of
