IGF1 and IGFBP3 polymorphisms and plasma levels in women.
To the Editor: D'Aloisio et al. report on IGF1 and IGFBP3 polymorphisms in relation to circulating insulinlike growth factor I (IGF-I) and insulin like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) plasma levels among African American and Caucasian women (CEBP 2009;18:954–66). In their study, mean IGF-I levels among Caucasian and African American were comparable. This is surprising because the Cauc...
متن کاملAssociations among IRS1, IRS2, IGF1, and IGFBP3 genetic polymorphisms and colorectal cancer.
INTRODUCTION Insulin, insulin-like growth factor (IGF), and IGF binding protein (IGFBP) are involved in cell growth and proliferation and are thought to be important in the etiology of colorectal cancer. We hypothesize that genetic polymorphisms of insulin receptor substrates (IRS-1 and IRS-2), IGF-I, and IGFBP-3 alter colorectal cancer risk because of their roles in the insulin-related signali...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor pathway genetic polymorphisms, circulating IGF1 and IGFBP3, and prostate cancer survival.
BACKGROUND The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) signaling pathway has been implicated in prostate cancer (PCa) initiation, but its role in progression remains unknown. METHODS Among 5887 PCa patients (704 PCa deaths) of European ancestry from seven cohorts in the National Cancer Institute Breast and Prostate Cancer Cohort Consortium, we conducted Cox kernel machine pathway analysis to evaluat...
متن کاملIGF1 and IGFBP3 in acute respiratory distress syndrome.
OBJECTIVE IGF1 and its most abundant binding protein, IGF-binding protein 3 (IGFBP3), have been implicated in fibrotic lung diseases and persistent acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to profibrogenic and antiapoptotic activity. Whether circulating levels of IGF1 and IGFBP3 are altered in ARDS and whether they predict progression of and survival from ARDS remains unknown. This study ...
متن کاملGenetic polymorphisms in the IGFBP3 gene: association with breast cancer risk and blood IGFBP-3 protein levels among Chinese women.
Cumulative evidence suggests that insulin-like growth factors (IGF) play an important role in the etiology of breast cancer. The IGF binding proteins regulate the action of IGFs, and >90% of circulating IGFs are bound to IGFBP-3. We evaluated the associations of five (A-202C, G227C, C3804G, 5606InsA, and C5827T) genetic polymorphisms in the IGFBP3 gene with breast cancer risk and the blood IGFB...
