Advanced Science, EarlyView.The limited understanding of IGFR pathway activation hinders its clinical application in HCC. Here, IGFRIL is identified as a novel non‐coding activator of the IGF1R, which recruits PTBP1 to destabilize IGFBP3 mRNA and activates IGF1R, and proposes IGFRIL as a novel actionable target for HCC patients.

Examining the role of insulin in the regulation of cardiovascular health [PDF]
, 2013 A substantial body of evidence has reported that insulin has direct actions on the cardiovascular system independent of its systemic effects on plasma glucose or lipids.

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.IGF‐1 levels above 174.9 ng/mL were associated with better wound healing and lower postoperative inflammation. Higher IGF‐1 levels correlated with improved anal function at 7 and 14 days post‐surgery. ABSTRACT Background Anal fistula is a chronic condition characterized by an abnormal tract between the anal canal and perianal skin, often leading to ...

Crosstalk between adiponectin and IGF-IR in breast cancer
Frontiers in Oncology, 2015 Obesity is a chronic and multifactorial disorder that is reaching epidemic proportions. It is characterized by an enlarged mass of adipose tissue caused by a combination of size increase of preexisting adipocytes (hypertrophy) and de novo adipocyte ...

Metformin as a Therapeutic Target in Endometrial Cancers. [PDF]
, 2018 Endometrial cancer is the most common gynecologic malignancy in developed countries. Its increasing incidence is thought to be related in part to the rise of metabolic syndrome, which has been shown to be a risk factor for the development of ...

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.This study investigates the long‐term endocrine and metabolic consequences of ghrelin‐depleted gastrectomy, with a focus on skeletal muscle mass and bone mineral content. Sustained reductions in serum desacyl‐ghrelin were linked to lower IGF‐1 levels, resulting in significant loss of muscle and bone.

Age-related loss of skeletal muscle function; impairment of gene expression. [PDF]
, 2004 Mechano Growth Factor (MGF) is derived from the insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I) but its sequence differs from the systemic IGF-I produced by the liver. MGF is expressed by mechanically overloaded muscle and is involved in tissue repair and adaptation.

IGF-1 Regulates the extracellular level of active MMP-2 and promotes Müller glial cell motility [PDF]
, 2015 In ischemic proliferative retinopathies, Müller glial cells (MGCs) acquire migratory abilities. However, the mechanisms that regulate this migration remain poorly understood.

Monolithic Biohybrid Flexure Mechanism Actuated by Bioengineered Skeletal Muscle Tissue
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.A scalable, monolithic biohybrid flexure mechanism is presented, integrating engineered skeletal muscle tissue with a soft, biocompatible, hollow silicone cylinder featuring dual pillars. Muscle contraction induces bending motion upon electrical stimulation, with performance governed by the structure's flexural rigidity.
