A genome-wide association study identifies novel loci associated with circulating IGF-I and IGFBP-3.
Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) are involved in cell replication, proliferation, differentiation, protein synthesis, carbohydrate homeostasis and bone metabolism. Circulating IGF-I and IGFBP-3 concentrations predict anthropometric traits and risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease. In a genome-wide association study of 10 280 mid...
PURPOSE To analyze epigenetic regulation of two related genes, insulin-like growth factor binding protein-related protein 1 (IGFBP-rP1) and IGFBPL1, and its significance as a determinant of clinical phenotypes in human breast cancer. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We have investigated the expression and epigenetic regulation of IGFBP-rP1 and IGFBPL1 in human breast cancer cell lines and primary and meta...
To investigate the involvement of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system in vitamin A (VA)-supported growth, we examined the effects of VA status on IGF binding protein (IGFBP)-2 and -5 gene expression in Japanese quail. VA deficiency caused a reduction in IGFBP-2 mRNA only in lung, without effect in other tissues. However, the expression of IGFBP-5 mRNA was more sensitive to the change of...
Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) has previously been identified as a putative tumor suppressor gene. The present study investigated the clinical and prognostic significance of IGFBP-3 expression levels in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Immunohistochemistry (IHC) probing for IGFBP-3 was performed on paraffin-embedded tissue samples obtained from 120 patients ...
Previous studies from our laboratory have identified several endothelial cell-associated marker genes implicated in human melanoma metastasis via tumor vasculogenic mimicry. In this study, we used dual model systems composed of melanoma cell lines and clinical melanoma samples to validate the importance of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) as a marker involved in disease pr...
BACKGROUND IGFBP-3 is a multifunctional protein that inhibits growth and induces apoptosis of cancer cells. Hypermethylation of the promoter represses expression of the IGFBP-3 gene. We undertook this study to assess the impact of IGFBP-3 methylation on survival of early stage gastric cancer patients. METHODS Of the 482 tissue samples from gastric cancer patients who underwent curative surger...
Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 (IGFBP-5) mediates involution of the mammary gland. The decrease in DNA content and mammary gland weight which accompanies involution was inhibited by prolactin (PRL) in wild-type but not transgenic mice expressing IGFBP-5. Phospho-STAT5 protein levels were significantly lower in IGFBP-5 transgenic mice during lactation suggesting that IGFBP-5 antago...
High levels of circulating insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), or IGF-I in relation to IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), have been associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer (CaP) and other common epithelial cell malignancies (1). Twin studies estimate that 38% of the interindividual variability of IGF-I and up to 60% of that of IGFBP-3 are attributable to genetic factors (2). Recent...
Expression of the insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 (IGFBP-5) gene in vascular smooth muscle cells is up-regulated by IGF-I through an IGF-I receptor-mediated mechanism. In this study, we studied the possible involvement of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and PI 3-kinase signaling pathways in mediating IGF-I-regulated IGFBP-5 gene expression. The addition of Des(1-3)IGF-I...
IGF binding protein-4 (IGFBP-4) proteolytic degradation is a common feature of preovulatory follicles from human, ovine, bovine, porcine, and equine ovary. In all these species, the protease is a zinc-dependent metalloprotease and its ability to degrade IGFBP-4 is IGF dependent. The human intrafollicular IGFBP-4-degrading protease has recently been identified as pregnancy-associated plasma prot...
