Inhibition of access of bound somatomedin to membrane receptor and immunobinding sites: a comparison of radioreceptor and radioimmunoassay of somatomedin in native and acid-ethanol-extracted serum.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1980
No agreement exists concerning the necessity for extracting serum somatomedin (Sm) before radioreceptor assay (RRA) and RIA. We have developed a simplified system of Sm extraction which has permitted a quantitative comparison of native and extracted Sm ...

Relationship of Insulin-like Growth Factor Receptor Single Nucleotide 
Polymorphism (SNP) with Platinum-based Chemotherapy Outcomes in Advanced Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

Chinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2012
Background and objective It has been proven that the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF-1R) gene is an important regulator of many aspects of growth, differentiation, and development.

A specific radioimmunoassay for the growth hormone (GH)-dependent somatomedin-binding protein: its use for diagnosis of GH deficiency.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1990
The acid-stable subunit of the GH-dependent large mol wt somatomedin-binding protein (SmBP) was isolated from human plasma Cohn fraction IV by a three-step procedure, and a specific RIA was developed which allowed measurement in unextracted serum ...

Estrone and estradiol concentrations in human ovaries, testes, and adrenals during the first two years of life [PDF]

, 1987
To determine the origin of estrogens in infant blood, we measured estrone (E1) and estradiol (E2) in the gonads of 50 girls and 64 boys who died suddenly between birth and 2 yr of age as well as in the adrenals of 18 of these infant girls and 16 of the ...

The Coexistence of an Intrasellar Adenoma, Lymphocytic Hypophysitis, and Primary Pituitary Lymphoma in a Patient with Acromegaly

Case Reports in Endocrinology, 2011
The concomitant presence of three histopathologically different entities in the pituitary gland is a rare occurrence. Most publications identify at least two distinct pathologies, mainly, a pituitary adenoma coexisting with a second intrasellar lesion ...

Coordinate regulation of fibronectin matrix assembly by the plasminogen activator system and vitronectin in human osteosarcoma cells

Cancer Cell International, 2006
Background Plasminogen activators are known to play a key role in the remodeling of bone matrix which occurs during tumor progression, bone metastasis and bone growth.

Dietary components that regulate serum somatomedin-C concentrations in humans.

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1983
Dietary components responsible for the regulation of somatomedin-C in humans were assessed in five adult volunteers of normal weight who were fasted for 5 d on three occasions, then refed three diets of differing composition.

The 'incidentaloma' of the pituitary gland. Is neurosurgery required? [PDF]

, 1990
We describe a series of 18 patients with an intrasellar mass incidentally discovered by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. The average size of the mass was 13 mm, with a range from 5 to 25 mm.

Insulin-like growth factor I/somatomedin C: a potent inducer of oligodendrocyte development.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1986
Cell cultures established from cerebrum of 1-day-old rats were used to investigate hormonal regulation of the development of oligodendrocytes, which synthesize myelin in the central nervous system.
