Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and its receptor are expressed in functionally related areas of the rat brain such as the inferior olive and the cerebellar cortex. A marked decrease of IGF-I levels in cerebellum is found when inferior olive neurons are lesioned. In addition, Purkinje cells in t

The in vivo effects of fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2) and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) on oligodendrocytes and CNS myelination were determined in the postnatal rat anterior medullary velum (AMV) following injection of both cytokines into the cerebrospinal fluid. Either FGF-2, IGF-I, or s
Neuroblastoma is a childhood tumor of the peripheral nervous system that remains largely uncurable by conventional methods. Mannitol induces apoptosis in neuroblastoma cell types and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) protects these cells from hyperosmotic-induced apoptosis by affecting apoptosis-
## Abstract By promoting cell proliferation, survival and maturation insulinβlike growth factor (IGF)βI is essential to the normal growth and development of the central nervous system. It is clear that IGFβI actions are primarily mediated by the type I IGF receptor (IGF1R), and that phosphoinositid
## Abstract Small GTPases regulate the cytoskeleton and numerous other cellular functions. In this study, the role of Rho GTPase was examined in articular chondrocytes. Chondrocytes grown in monolayer were treated with interleukinβ1Ξ± (ILβ1Ξ±), insulinβlike growth factorβI (IGFβI), C3 Transferase, Y2
