Oncology patients suffer multiple detrimental metabolic alterations. Among these are catabolism of tumor free body mass to supply nutrients to feed the tumor. This results not only in enhanced tumor growth but also poor wound healing and immunosuppression of the tumor host. Efforts are therefore bei

We have demonstrated previously that insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-3 alone has little growth inhibitory effect on Hs578T human breast cancer cells, but that it can dramatically accentuate the apoptotic response to the physiological trigger, ceramide, in an IGF-independent manner
## Abstract Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and transforming growth factorβΞ²1 (TGFβΞ²1) play an important role in proliferation, differentiation, and survival of malignant gliomas and in normal glial cell biology. Because of these critical roles, potential interactions between these key growth
Androgen hormones and growth factors are implicated in pedicle formation and antler transformation in deer. The potential to form a pedicle and an antler is only found in the antlerogenic periosteum (AP) overlying the presumptive antler growth region. Histological studies (Li and Suttie, '94) showed
