Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) play an important role in cell growth and differentiation. Clinical and epidemiological studies have indicated that measuring IGFs and IGFBPs in blood has potential implications in assessing growth-related abnormalities and risks o

## Abstract We investigated whether circulating insulin‐like growth factor‐I (IGF‐I) and insulin‐like growth factor binding protein‐3 (IGFBP‐3) levels are associated with the risk of fibrocystic breast conditions (FBC), in a case‐control study nested within a randomized trial of breast self‐examina
## Abstract Recent epidemiological studies have shown that high serum levels of insulin‐like growth factor‐I (IGF‐I) are associated with an increased risk of lung, colon, breast and prostate cancer. Since very few studies have addressed the role of serum levels of IGF‐I in the development of pancre
