The Clinical Values of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 Levels in Blood and Thyroid Nodules
AIM Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is a potent mitogen for many cells. IGF-1 plays a role in the pathogenesis of various tumors with its mutagenic and antiapoptotic properties. The aim of this study was to determine both the serum and intranodular levels of IGF-1 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) in patients with nodular thyroid diseases. MATERIALS AND METHODS I...
متن کاملThe Effect of 8 Weeks Resistance Training With Low Load and High Load on Testosterone, Insulin-like Growth Factor-1, Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 Levels, and Functional Adaptations in Older Women
Objectives The loss of muscle mass in older adults is attributed to the impaired ability of the skeletal muscle in response to anabolic stimuli and the increased activation of the proteolytic signaling pathway. With increasing age, plasma concentrations of circulating anabolic hormones and growth factors, e.g. testosterone, Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) and Insulin-like Growth Factor Bin...
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 کاملThe Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (G>A) and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (C677T) Gene Variants and the Serum Levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor-1, Insulin, and Homeostasis Model Assessment in Patients with Acne Vulgaris
Background & Objective: To find an association between gene variants of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) with the risk of acne vulgaris (AV). Methods: In a case-control study, we investigated 150 AV patients and 148 healthy individuals (aged 18-25 years) for the IGF-1 G>A and MTHFR C677T polymorphis...
متن کاملThe role of insulin-like growth factor 1 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 in human esophageal cancer.
BACKGROUND Insulin-like growth factors (1GF-1) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) play important roles in cell growth and differentiation. The aim of this work was to investigate the roles of IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 in esophageal cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS We examined the circulating IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 concentration in 18 healthy controls and 66 esophageal cancer patients ...
