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

## Abstract This study evaluated the effects of basic fibroblast growth factor, transforming growth factorβΞ²1, insulinβlike growth factorβ1, and insulin on the incorporation of thymidine and sulfate in human osteoarthritic articular cartilage. Tissue explants were obtained from 11 patients undergoi
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The purpose of the current study was to investigate the association between insulin resistance (which was measured using fasting blood Cβpeptide) and its joint association with insulinβlike growth factors (IGFβ1, IGFβ2, and IGF binding proteinβ3 [IGFBPβ3]) on the risk of
Hydrogels are a promising type of biomaterial for articular cartilage constructs since they have been shown to enable encapsulated chondrocytes to express their predominant phenotypic marker, type II collagen. Endogenously expressed signaling molecules, such as insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1),
