Germline PTPRD mutations in Ewing sarcoma: biologic and clinical implications. [PDF]
, 2013 Ewing sarcoma occurs in children, adolescents and young adults. High STAT3 levels have been reported in approximately 50% of patients with Ewing sarcoma, and may be important in tumorigenesis.

Scientific Reports, 2017 The insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 signaling is relevant in regulating cell growth and cytokine secretions by glioblastomas. MicroRNAs determine the cell fate in glioblastomas. However, relationships between IGF-1 signaling and miRNAs in glioblastoma

Olmesartan potentiates the anti-angiogenic effect of sorafenib in mice bearing Ehrlich's ascites carcinoma: role of angiotensin (1-7). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Local renin-angiotensin systems exist in various malignant tumor tissues; this suggests that the main effector peptide, angiotensin II, could act as a key factor in tumor growth.

Role of growth factors in the pathogenesis of tissue fibrosis in systemic sclerosis. [PDF]
, 2010 The most severe clinical and pathologic manifestations of systemic sclerosis (SSc) are the result of a fibrotic process characterized by the excessive and often progressive deposition of collagen and other connective tissue macromolecules in skin and ...

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2007 Signaling via the type 1 insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF1R) confers resistance to EGF receptor (EGFR) inhibitors. It is plausible that reciprocal EGFR compensation could mediate resistance to IGF1R inhibition, prompting us to investigate effects of IGF1R depletion on EGFR signaling in breast cancer cells expressing relatively high (MDA-MB-468)

Exploring metabolic dysfunction in chronic kidney disease [PDF]
, 2012 Impaired kidney function and chronic kidney disease (CKD) leading to kidney failure and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is a serious medical condition associated with increased morbidity, mortality, and in particular cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk ...

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2011 Triple-negative breast cancers have a poor prognosis and are not amenable to endocrine- or HER2-targeted therapies. The prevailing view is that targeting the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signal transduction pathway will not be beneficial for triple ...

Novel nuclear localization and potential function of insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor/insulin receptor hybrid in corneal epithelial cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Type I insulin-like growth factor receptor (IGF-1R) and insulin receptor (INSR) are highly homologous molecules, which can heterodimerize to form an IGF-1R/INSR hybrid (Hybrid-R).

Prospective study of a molecular selection profile for RAS wild type colorectal cancer patients receiving irinotecan-cetuximab [PDF]
, 2015 Background: The aim of our study was to evaluate whether a panel of biomarkers, prospectively analysed might be able to predict patients' clinical outcome more accurately than RAS status alone.
