Insulin-like growth factor-independent effects mediated by a C-terminal metal-binding domain of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3.
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) play a central role in the integration of proliferative and survival responses of most mammalian cell types. IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) influences IGF action directly as a carrier of IGFs but also modulates these actions indirectly via independent mechanisms involving interactions with plasma, extracellular matrix and cell surface molecules, conditional p...
متن کاملVertex balding, plasma insulin-like growth factor 1, and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3.
BACKGROUND A recent report suggested that men with vertex balding have higher levels of plasma insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). The association of its major carrier protein, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3), with male pattern hair loss has not been examined. OBJECTIVE We evaluated the relations of plasma concentrations of IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 with vertex balding in mid...
متن کاملEffects of alcohol on insulin-like growth factor I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 in postmenopausal women.
BACKGROUND Increased circulating insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) concentrations, frequently adjusted for IGF binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3), have been associated with increased risk of several types of cancer, including colon, prostate, and breast. Studies have suggested that alcohol may affect IGF-I or IGFBP-3; however, controlled feeding studies to assess alcohol's effects on IGF-I or IGFBP...
متن کاملEffects of alcohol and menstrual cycle on insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3.
Alcohol ingestion and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) have been associated with increased breast cancer risk, the latter primarily in premenopausal women. We investigated whether alcohol ingestion altered IGF-I or its major binding protein (BP), IGFBP-3, in a controlled feeding study in premenopausal women. We also determined whether IGF-I or IGFBP-3 was affected by menstrual cycle phase. ...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 5 in Crohn's disease.
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and its binding protein IGF binding protein 5 (IGFBP-5) were highly expressed in inflamed and fibrotic intestine in experimental Crohn's disease. IGF-I induced proliferation and increased collagen synthesis by smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts/myofibroblasts in vitro. Here we studied IGF-I and IGFBP-5 in Crohn's disease tissue. Tissue was collected from pati...
