Book Synopsis Insulin-like Growth Factors by : Derek LeRoith
Download or read book Insulin-like Growth Factors written by Derek LeRoith and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 1991-05-28 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past decade, the continued interest in insulin-related growth factors has been documented by a plethora of research programs and publications focused on these growth factors. Both molecular and cellular biological techniques have improved and enabled investigators to study the properties of the growth factors in depth. This volume covers the molecular (genetic) aspects of the growth factors, their binding proteins and receptors, as well as those factors affecting their gene transcription and translation. In addition, aspects of the cellular action of these growth factors through their receptors and how this impacts normal cellular function are discussed. The book will provide valuable information for researchers in physiology, biology, endocrinology, and metabolism.
Book Synopsis Current Directions in Insulin-Like Growth Factor Research by : Derek LeRoith
Download or read book Current Directions in Insulin-Like Growth Factor Research written by Derek LeRoith and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) family has become an exciting area of investigation. Initially, this family consisted of ligands (insulin, IGF-I and IGF-m and receptors (the insulin receptor, the type I or IGF-I receptor and the type II or IGF-IYM-6-P receptor). Subsequently, it was discovered that six specific binding proteips (lGFBPs 1-6) playa major role in the actions of this growth factor family. In addition, there are now more potential receptors when one considers the possible roles of the insulin-receptor related receptor (IRR) and hybrid receptor dimers composed of insulin and IGF-I receptor (half-receptors). Another important aspect of this area of research is the realization that the IGFs are not only essential for normal growth and development but, in addition play an important role in the normal specialized function(s) of all tissues of the body, including the nervous system, skeleton, reproductive system, kidney, and the immune system, to name but a few. The development of recombi!tant human IGF-I for clinical testing has been a major breakthrough for investigators. Potential uses include wound healing, reversal of catabolic states, diabetes, bone remodeling, recovery from acute renal failure and many others. will determine both its use and its potential hazards.
Book Synopsis Insulin-like Growth Factor Receptor Signalling by : Derek Leroith
Download or read book Insulin-like Growth Factor Receptor Signalling written by Derek Leroith and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2003-07-31 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Insulin-like growth factors are ubiquitously expressed and are crucial for growth and function of almost all cells. Together with their binding proteins and receptors, they form a widely studied biological system involving many proteins and characterized by complex interactions. In addition to its significance in growth and development, the insulin-like growth factor system also has important roles in a wide variety of pathological states. This has led to interest in the therapeutic potential of insulin-like growth factors and their binding proteins as candidate drug targets. This comprehensive book contains current information on both basic science and clinical aspects of IGFs and their regulatory proteins, with emphasis on their relevance to cancer.
Book Synopsis Advances in Growth Hormone and Growth Factor Research by : Eugenio E. Müller
Download or read book Advances in Growth Hormone and Growth Factor Research written by Eugenio E. Müller and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Readers of this book can update their knowledge in the fast-moving field of endocrinology and neurobiology. Topics concerning growth and development are extensively reviewed from both basic science and clinical viewpoints. Aspects related to growth development and to the control of cellular differentiation and multiplication are discussed. Further new information is provided on: synthetic recombinant human growth hormone (rHGH); potential diagnostic and therapeutic applications of the neuropeptide, growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH); the physiology and physiopathology of the neural control of growth hormone secretion; the diagnosis and therapy of growth hormone deficiency or excess states; and the biology, function and possible utilization of growth factors. These important new findings are relevant to progress in pediatrics, pediatric and clinical endocrinology, neuroendocrinology and physiology.
Book Synopsis The Insulin-like Growth Factors by : Paul N. Schofield
Download or read book The Insulin-like Growth Factors written by Paul N. Schofield and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past decade has seen an explosion in our understanding of the factors regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. One of the most exciting advances has been the recognition of the pivotal role of the peptide growth factors in these processes. The insulin-like growth factors, discovered in 1958 by Salmon and Daughaday, are now among the best characterized growth factors. This comprehensive work describes the recent advances in knowledge of their receptors and binding proteins together with their purification and cloning. This provides exciting insights into the role of these factors in the physiology of normal growth, embryonic development and areas of pathology such as wound healing and cancer. In this book an international group of contributors reviews the most up-to-date information on all aspects of the insulin-like growth factors, and critically discusses models for IGF action in their own systems. The book is a valuable source of information and ideas for researchers, and an accessible introduction to the subject for students and clinicians.

Book Synopsis Molecular and Cellular Biology of Insulin-like Growth Factors and Their Receptors by : Derek Leroith
Download or read book Molecular and Cellular Biology of Insulin-like Growth Factors and Their Receptors written by Derek Leroith and published by Springer. This book was released on 1990 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential element in the development and functional integrity of all organisms is intercellular communication. This is achieved by the secretion of soluble messenger molecules which subsequently interact with receptor-effector pathways in the responsive cells. Hormones are traditionally defined as chemical messengers synthesized by endocrine glands. Unlike hormones produced by endocrine glands, growth factors are hormone-related substances produced by many tissues and play an important role in controlling growth and development. While the exact physiological roles of growth factors have yet to be elucidated, they play important roles in the regulation of cellular proliferation and/or differentiation during ontogenesis, growth and differentiation. During recent years there has been a substantial increase in research related to peptide growth factors, their receptors, and modes of action. With the discovery and characterization of numerous growth factors, it became clear that these growth factors had multiple features in common with classic hormones as well as with oncogenes. Furthermore, there are distinct families of growth factors based either on structural or functional similarities.
