Prognostic significance of growth hormone in pediatric liver transplantation

open access: yesВестник трансплантологии и искусственных органов, 2023
Growth hormone (GH) plays a leading role in the regulation of cell and tissue metabolism and growth. Its effects are mediated through the so-called somatomedins, among which the most important is the liver-produced insulinlike growth factor 1 (IGF-1). It

Blood Levels of IGF-I in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: Relation to Clinical Data

open access: yesThe International Journal of Biological Markers, 1991

Identification and characterization of insulin-like growth factor receptors on adult rat cardiac myocytes: linkage to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate formation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Cultured cardiac myocytes from adult Sprague-Dawley rats express both insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) receptors and insulin-like growth factor-II/mannose 6-phosphate (IGF-II/Man6P) receptors and respond to IGF-I with a dose-dependent accumulation of
