Previously we have shown that transforming growth factor b (TGF b) 1, basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) BB inhibit the synthesis of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) II, but their effects on IGF binding protein (IGFBP)-6 in osteoblast cultures are not kno

ity of IGFs can be modified by IGF binding proteins (IGFBP) (Rechler, 1993). There are six known IGFBPs,

Haemangiopericytoma is a rare soft tissue tumour originating from the contractile pericapillary cells. Relatively little is known about its molecular pathogenesis. To address this issue, the insulin-like growth factor family (IGFs) was analysed in 19 tumours collected from a human tumour bank networ
The role of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in regulating estrogen receptor-β£ (ER-β£) gene expression and activity was investigated in the human breast cancer cell line MCF-7. Treatment of cells with 40 ng/ml IGF-I resulted in a 60% decrease in ER-β£ protein concentration by 3 h, and the amount o
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) I is an autocrine regulator of bone remodeling which inhibits bone collagen degradation and interstitial collagenase 3 mRNA levels. The mechanism of this inhibitory effect on collagenase 3 expression is not known. We tested the effects of IGF I on collagenase 3 gene
Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) plays significant roles in the growth and development of mammals through the regulation of mitogenesis and cell survival. Previously, IGF-II mRNA transcripts within the CNS were detected in the choroid plexus and leptomeninges (DeChiara et al., 1991). The objec
