Haemangiopericytoma is a rare soft tissue tumour originating from the contractile pericapillary cells. Relatively little is known about its molecular pathogenesis. To address this issue, the insulin-like growth factor family (IGFs) was analysed in 19 tumours collected from a human tumour bank networ

## Abstract Recent epidemiological studies have shown that high serum levels of insulinโlike growth factorโI (IGFโI) 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 IGFโI in the development of pancre
Multiple factors contribute to the growth retardation which is a characteristic feature of uncontrolled diabetes. In this report we have examined the effects of streptozotocin-induced (STZ) diabetes on expression of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-
The crucial step of folding of recombinant proteins presents serious challenges to obtaining the native structure. This problem is exemplified by insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I which when refolded in vitro produces the native three-disulfide structure, an alternative structure with mispaired dis
## Abstract We investigated whether circulating insulinโlike growth factorโI (IGFโI) and insulinโlike growth factor binding proteinโ3 (IGFBPโ3) levels are associated with the risk of fibrocystic breast conditions (FBC), in a caseโcontrol study nested within a randomized trial of breast selfโexamina
