## Abstract The insulin‐like growth factor‐I receptor (IGF‐IR) is a ubiquitous multifunctional tyrosine kinase that has an important role in normal cell growth and development. However, abnormal stimulation of IGF‐IR signaling has been implicated in the development of different types of tumors. The

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP)-3 effects proliferation and differentiation of numerous cell types by binding to insulin-like growth factors (IGF) and attenuating their activity or by directly affecting cells in an IGFindependent manner. Consequently, IGFBPs produced by specific c
Dietary and endogenously modified lipids modulate inflammation by functioning as intra- and intercellular signaling molecules. Proinflammatory lipid mediators such as the eicosanoids compete against the signaling actions of newly discovered modified fatty acids that act to resolve inflammation. In i
