## Background: Insulin-like growth factor binding protein (igfbp)-5 has been proposed as a signal for apoptosis in the ovary. to determine the relationship between igfbp-5 and apoptosis during regression of the androgen-deprived prostate, rats were castrated or treated with the 5alpha-reductase inh

We have previously shown that 17--estradiol protects neurons in the dentate gyrus from kainic acidinduced death in vivo. To analyse whether this effect is mediated through estrogen receptors and through cross-talk between steroid and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) systems, we have concomitantly a
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
