Limited proteolysis of insulin-like-growth-factor (IGF)-binding proteins (IGFBPs) represents a key process to modulate IGF bio-availability at the cellular level. In human colon carcinomas, urokinase-type plasminogen activator (u-PA) produced by stroma cells can bind to cancer-cell-associated u-PA r
## Abstract The insulin‐like growth factors (IGFs) are potent mitogens for breast cancer cells and their activity is modulated by high affinity binding proteins (IGFBPs). We have recently shown that IGFBP‐1 purified from human amniotic fluid neutralizes IGF‐I‐dependent growth of MCF‐7 cells. In thi
