15 lut 2015 · IGF-1 is a point of convergence for major signaling pathways implicated in breast cancer growth. In this review, we provide an overview and concise update on the function and regulation of IGF-1 as well as the role it plays in breast malignancies.
29 lis 2022 · The insulin-like growth factor-1 elevates urokinase-type plasminogen activator-1 in human breast cancer cells: A new avenue for breast cancer therapy. Mol. Carcinog.
1 maj 2023 · Growth Factors and Cancer. Genetic alterations in signal transduction pathways contribute to many cancer phenotypes such as increased cellular growth, cellular motility, and angiogenesis. One of the key pathways activated by growth factor binding (for example, EGF or insulin-like growth factor 1 [IGF-1]) to a surface receptor is the PI3K/AKT ...
1 maj 2017 · The type I insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor is a well-described target in breast cancer and multiple clinical trials examining insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor have been completed.
Population, preclinical, and basic data suggest the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system functions to maintain the malignant phenotype in breast cancer. Since the IGFs act via transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptors, targeting of the key receptors could provide a new pathway in breast cancer.
27 sie 2024 · Recent evidence highlights the essential roles of IGF-1 and its isoforms in breast cancer (BC) development, progression, and metastasis. The peptides that define the IGF-1 isoforms—IGF-1Ea, IGF-1Eb, and IGF-1Ec—act as key points of convergence for various signaling pathways that influence the growth, metastasis and survival of BC cells.
Background: Epidemiological evidence supports a positive association between circulating insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) concentrations and breast cancer risk, but both the magnitude and causality of this relationship are uncertain. We conducted observational analyses with adjustment for regression dilution bias, and Mendelian ...
