## Abstract The treatment of overuse tendon injuries with exogenous growth factors such as insulinβlike growth factorβI (IGFβI) may facilitate an improved return to sustained athletic function. The biological effects of IGFβI are exerted under the control of a complex of IGF receptors, binding prot

## Background: In vitiligo, melanocytes are gradually lost in depigmented macules of the skin. the disappearance of melanocytes has, however, not been clearly observed and consequently the aetiology of the disease (autoimmune, neural, cytotoxic) is still elusive. the starting point of vitiligo macu
Transforming growth factor-beta s (TGF-beta s) are a family of growth factors with inhibitory effects on epithelial cell proliferation. Their effects are mediated by two interacting receptors, of which type I (T beta R-I) mediates signal transduction after interaction with type II (T beta R-II) carr
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
