## Abstract To establish a role for insulinβlike growth factorβ1 (IGFβ1) in bladder cancer susceptibility, we tested the effect of __p__βcresidine, a potent bladder carcinogen, in transgenic (TG) mice with human IGFβ1 expression in the bladder driven by the __bovine keratin 5__ promoter (referred t

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and its receptor are believed to play an important role in mitogenesis and neoplastic transformation. The purpose of this study was to further examine the role of IGF-1 during tumor promotion in mouse skin. HK1.IGF1 transgenic mice, which overexpress IGF-1 in epi
The role of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and its mechanism of action are important from both pathogenic and therapeutic points of view. The present study investigated the changes of IGF-1Rb and the key intracellular downstream protein insulin receptor s
