Cord sera were obtained from term, Chilean newborns exhibiting various patterns of intrauterine growth and assayed for IGF-1, IGF-2, IGFBP-1, IGFBP-2, and IGFBP-3 by specific radioimmunoassays (RIA). Serum levels of each ...

Diabetes reduces the serum levels of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and physical training may prevent this reduction. Almost all circulating IGF-I is produced and secreted by the liver. To examine the influence of ...

The aim of the present study was to examine the influence of moderate physical training on the GH/IGF-1 growth axis in diabetic rats. Male Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups, sedentary control (SC), trained control ...

Hypoxia is one of many factors involved in the regulation of the IGF system. However, no information is available regarding the regulation of the IGF system by acute hypoxia in humans. Objective: The aim of this study was ...

Understanding insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF1) biology is of particular importance because, apart from its role in mediating growth, it plays key roles in cellular transformation, organ regeneration, immune function, ...

The present study investigated the effects of moderate physical training on some of the parameters in the GH-IGF axis in experimental diabetic rats. Male Wistar rats were allocated into the following groups: sedentary ...

Gross cystic disease (GCD) is the most common benign breast pathology. Although breast cysts are not considered pre-malignant lesions, an increased risk of breast cancer has been reported for patients with type I cysts ...
