Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is a 70 amino acid, mitogenic polypeptide, which, in mammals, acts through an endocrine, paracrine, and/or autocrine pathway to regulate growth and development. The primary goal of this study was to determine whether or not IGF-I-like immunoreactivity is present
To develop effective procedures for improving the regeneration of peripheral nerves and for preventing the formation of neurofibromas, it is necessary to identify the different mitogens that stimulate the proliferation of Schwann cells. Insulinlike growth factor I (IGF-I), which is a potent autocrin
The human insulin analogue ASPB 10 has been reported to have increased affinity for the insulin receptor and to cause breast cancer in female rats. In the study reported here, we investigated whether ASPB 10 has an increased mitogenic potency and induces a transformed phenotype in cultured human bre
