Insulin-like growth factor I 1 (IGF II) regulated tissue-specific gene expression in hepatoma cell lines, but had no effect on expression of tissue-specific genes in primary cultures of E l 4 and newborn rat liver cells depleted of erythroid cells. No change was observed in these primary cultures wi

Insulin-like growth factor I1 is believed to play an important role in fetal growth and development. The insulin-like growth factor I1 gene expression is tissue specific and developmentally regulated. We have previously shown an enhanced level of insulin-like growth factor I1 messenger RNA and prote
Insulin-like growth factor-ll (IGF-II) receptors in primary cultures of adult rat hepatocytes were characterized and their regulation by cell density examined. In hepatocytes cultured at 5 x lo5 cells per 3.8 cm2 plate, ['251]ICF-ll bound to specific, high affinity receptors (Ka = 4.4 + 0.5 x lo9 I
We observed that all-trans-retinoic acid (RA) down-regulated insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) in cultured human hepatoma cells (Hep 3B, PLC/PRF/5, and Hep G2); therefore, we characterized the role of this down-regulation in cell growth. Treatment with 10 micromol/L RA revealed a
