## Abstract Insulin is known to cause an increase in endothelin‐1 (ET‐1) receptors in vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs), but the effect of insulin‐like growth factor 1 (IGF‐1) on ET‐1 receptor expression is not known. We therefore carried out the present study to determine the effect of IGF‐1 on

Mouse P 2 A 2 -LISN myoblasts are transfected cells that overexpress the human type 1 insulin-like growth factor (IGF) receptor. Because the type 1 IGF receptor is the major binding site for both IGF-I and IGF-II, this cell line is an excellent model to determine the effect of multivalent cations on

Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) promotes axonal regeneration in the peripheral nervous system and this effect is enhanced by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). We decided, therefore, to study the effects of these factors on axonal regeneration in the adult rat spinal cord. Semipermeable pol
