Regulation of Gene Expression of Rat Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Proteins 1 and 2

  • Chapter
Molecular Biology and Physiology of Insulin and Insulin-Like Growth Factors

Abstract

Virtually all of the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) in extracellular fluids and cell culture medium occur complexed to specific IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs).1,2 The IGFBPs are a family of proteins that bind IGF-I and IGF-II but are unrelated to IGF receptors. Four IGFBPs have been cloned from human and rat sources,1–8 and partial protein sequence information is available forafifthlGFBP.9–11 OthermembersoftheIGFBPfamilyundoubtedlyexist,12butspecific assignment must await amino acid or nucleotide sequencing.
