## Abstract The synthetic activity of chondrocytes in articular cartilage declines with age, possibly as a result of decreased sensitivity to anabolic growth factors such as insulin‐like growth factor‐I. The sensitivity of these cells to insulin‐like growth factor‐I is regulated, in pan, by the syn

## Abstract Although muscle satellite cells were identified almost 40 years ago, little is known about the induction of their proliferation and differentiation in response to physiological/pathological stimuli or to growth factors/cytokines. In order to investigate the role of the insulin‐like grow
## Abstract Insulin‐like growth factor binding protein‐3 (IGFBP‐3), an antiproliferative and proapoptotic protein, has been shown to be upregulated by growth inhibitory concentrations of androgens in LNCaP human prostate cancer (PCa) cells, but the mechanism of regulation and the role of IGFBP‐3 in
## Abstract The role of insulin‐like growth factors (IGF) in regulating cell differentiation and proliferation is in part modulated by the IGF binding protein (IGFBP) family of genes. Previous studies of the human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) have detected expression of IGFBP‐2, ‐3, and ‐6. How
This review addresses the possible role of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF)axis in normal glucose homoeostasis and in the etiopathogenesis of type 2 diabetes. IGF-I, a peptide hormone, shares amino acid sequence homology with insulin and has insulin-like activity; most notably, the promotion of
