## Abstract To assess the roles of developmental factors in the regulation of sheep IGFBP production at the cellular level, we characterized and compared the IGFBPs released by fetal, postnatal, and maternal sheep skin fibroblasts in culture with those in fetal, postnatal, and maternal sheep plasma
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-
Interest in the role of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis in growth control and carcinogenesis has recently been increased by the finding of elevated serum insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) levels in association with three of the most prevalent cancers in the United States: prostate cance
