The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system is involved in the regulation of cell growth. The system involves a network of molecules that includes the IGFs themselves (IGF-I and -II), IGF receptors (types I and II), IGF-binding proteins (IGFBP-1 through -6), and IGFBP proteases. Characterization of
## Studies have demonstrated the presence of epidermal growth factor receptors in human parathyroid tumors. However, there is little information on the effect of other peptide growth factors on parathyroid cell growth. We therefore studied the interaction of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) wi
Insulin-like growth factor I1 is believed to play an important role in fetal growth and development. The insulin-like growth factor I1 gene expression is tissue specific and developmentally regulated. We have previously shown an enhanced level of insulin-like growth factor I1 messenger RNA and prote
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
