Comparative Study of IGFBP Properties in Toad and Rat Sera [PDF]
The levels ofIGF-Ihave been simultaneously measured byradioimmunoassayin samples of the toadBufo arenarumand of normal male Wistar rats. In addition, the different fractions of IGF-I binding proteins (IGFBP) and their binding properties have been ...

Chondroitin sulfate in invertebrate development
Abstract Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is one of the most evolutionarily conserved glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Although CS's function in skeletal development is well established in vertebrates, CS exists in more primitive animal species with no cartilage or bone, such as C.

Human embryonic somatomedin. [PDF]
A radioreceptor assay utilizing human fetal brain plasma membrane as matrix and somatomedin A as ligand (fetal brain RRA-SMA) was developed. Increased levels of fetal brain RRA-SMA were found in the fetal circulation. The concentration was approximately 4-fold higher in the fetal as compared to the adult human.
