Intact pulse cotyledon cell diet improves systemic growth via the somatotropic axis in malnourished mice

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
The MAL‐IC diet promotes growth in malnourished mice by regulating the gut microbiota—increasing the abundance of carbohydrate‐utilizing bacteria and SCFAs production. SCFAs circulate to the liver via the gut–liver axis, where they bind FFAR2 and activate the somatotropic axis, thereby stimulating GHR‐mediated GH signaling and increasing IGF‐1 and ...

Monoclonal antibodies to receptors for insulin and somatomedin-C.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1983
Three monoclonal antibodies, designated alpha IR-1, alpha IR-2, and alpha IR-3, were prepared by fusing FO myeloma cells with spleen cells from a mouse immunized with a partially purified preparation of insulin receptors from human placenta. These antibodies were characterized by their ability to immunoprecipitate solubilized receptors labeled with ...

SUSD2 Promotes Metastasis and Primary Tumor Growth in Pancreatic Cancer Cells via Integrin–FAK Signaling Activation

open access: yesCancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 3, Page 711-726, March 2026.
This study investigates the role of Sushi domain‐containing 2 (SUSD2) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and demonstrates that SUSD2 enhances both metastasis and primary tumor growth by promoting integrin β1–FAK signaling. SUSD2 interacts with integrin β1, enhancing adhesion to extracellular matrix (ECM) components such as collagen 1 and ...

Presence of somatomedin receptors on primary human breast and colon carcinomas

open access: yesCancer Letters, 1987
Competitive binding techniques were used to study the interaction of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) with a plasma membrane-enriched subcellular fraction purified from primary breast and colon carcinoma specimens obtained at surgery. The presence of specific binding sites for IGF-I was detected in all tumour specimens studied.

Structural basis for uPAR binding to an antibody developed for targeted cancer therapy. Mechanistic insights into flexibility, ligand recognition, and molecular imaging

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The urokinase‐type plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) is currently gaining momentum as a promising molecular target for treatment of various solid cancers. For patient stratification, we developed a high‐affinity uPAR‐targeting peptide (AE105) detecting primary cancer lesions as well as occult metastasis by positron emission tomography (PET)

Massive reduction of RyR1 in muscle spindles of mice carrying recessive Ryr1 mutations alters proprioception and causes scoliosis

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 603, Issue 22, Page 6949-6977, November 15, 2025.
Abstract figure legend Intrafusal muscles contained within muscle spindles are endowed with ryanodie receptor 1 (RyR1) calcium channels and participate in proprioceptor function. Mutations in RyR1 linked to severe RYR1‐congenital myopathies affect calcium release from both extrafusal as well as intrafusal muscles.

Delayed Bone Maturation and Extended Growth Phase as Distinctive Features of 17α‐Hydroxylase/17,20‐Lyase Deficiency: A Retro‐Prospective Study of a Large Patient Cohort

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, Volume 103, Issue 3, Page 303-310, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Worldwide, combined 17‐hydroxylase/17,20‐lyase deficiency (CYP17D) is a rare form of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, but it is the second most prevalent type in Brazil. An absence of sexual differentiation and hypergonadotropic hypogonadism arise from a reduction in the usual pattern of sex steroid formation in the adrenals and ...

A high‐resolution data set of fatty acid‐binding protein structures. III. Unexpectedly high occurrence of wrong ligands

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 451-464, August 2025.
Very high‐resolution fatty acid‐binding protein structures identified a substantial number of ligands that differ strongly from their expected structure. If different ligand chemistry is a potentially overlooked problem in other, lower resolution, crystal structures of protein–ligand complexes, it has repercussions for any study using such structures ...

Structural Similarity of Human and Bovine Somatomedin Receptors and Human Insulin Receptor: Analysis by Affinity Labeling [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Research, 1981
The growth promoting and insulin-like actions of somatomedin-C (Sm-C) are thought to be mediated respectively by interactions with the Sm-C and insulin (In) receptors. Since Sm-C and In are structurally homologous, we compared the size and subunit structure of their respective radiolabeled receptors in human placental membranes (hPM) and bovine ...
