The mitogenic effects of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are regulated by a family of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs). One member of this family, IGFBP-3, mediates the growth-inhibitory and apoptosis-inducing effects of a number of growth factors and hormones such as transfor
## Abstract The insulin like growth factor (IGF) signaling pathway has been shown to contribute to melanoma progression, but little is known about the role of the IGF binding protein 3 (IGFBPβ3) in melanoma biology. The aim of the present study was to characterize expression, function and regulatio
