Essais de purification de l'insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) bovine
… system, especially the somatotrope axis. IGFBP-3 is the major carrier of the IGFs (the main growth-promoting peptide) in plasma circulating as part of a 150 kDa ternary complex with one IGF peptide and a single acid-labile subunit. The IGFBP-3 purification would allow the measure of the …

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) plays an essential role in cellular senescence: molecular and clinical implications.
… primary component of the IGF signaling involves IGFBP-3. It is well documented that IGFBP-3 levels are significantly increased in senescent human diploid fibroblasts however IGFBP-3 function is not known in this system. Interestingly, Werner syndrome fibroblasts, commonly used as a model of …

IGFBP-3 blocks hyaluronan-CD44 signaling, leading to increased acetylcholinesterase levels in A549 cell media and apoptosis in a p53-dependent manner
<p>Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) belongs to a family of six IGF binding proteins. We previously found that IGFBP-3 exerts its cytotoxic effects on A549 (p53 wild-type) cell survival through a mechanism that depends on hyaluronan-CD44 interactions. To shed light on the …

Quantification of the Binding of Insulin-like Growth Factor-I (IGF-I) and IGF Binding Protein-3 (IGFBP-3) Using Surface Plasmon Resonance
… IGF-I with the cell surface in the presence of IGFBP-3 which suggested increased association of IGF-I with IGFBP-3 at low pH. We studied cell free interaction of IGF-I and IGFBP-3 as a function of pH using surface plasmon resonance (SPR) in order to understand the mechanism that causes the …

Characterization of Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 (IGFBP-3) interaction with the Bovine Aortic Endothelial (BAE) cell surface: Examination of the Role of Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans (HSPG)
Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) are known to be important modulators of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF-I). However, their precise role is as yet unclear. Further, recent studies have indicated that IGFBP-3 has a receptor mediated growth inhibitory response of its own. In …

Investigations of Insulin-Like Growth Factor I Cell Surface Binding: Regulation by Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein-3 and Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycan
… of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), is influenced by heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG). Initial research will be presented, assumptions and hypotheses that were included in the development of mathematical models will be discussed, and the future enhancements of the models …

Nutritional Regulation of Serum Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Concentration in Cattle
… concentrations of IGF-I, IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) and acid-labile subunit (ALS), and their mRNA expression in the liver were determined in beef cows. It was found that increased nutritional intake did not alter basal concentrations of serum IGF-I, IGFBP-3 or ALS, or their mRNA expression …

The Role of Insulin-like Growth Factor-I and IGF-binding Proteins in Mammary Gland Development
… factor-I (IGF-I) and IGF-binding proteins (IGFBP), the initial objective was to evaluate the physiological effects of recombinant IGF-I synthesis in the mouse mammary gland. Expression of recombinant IGF-I was targeted by the mouse mammary tumor virus - long terminal repeat (MMTV-LTR) to the …

Roles of Zinc in Skeletal Muscle Cells Growth
… assay yielded affinities as follows IGF-1R > IGFBP-5 > IGF-2R > IGFBP-4 > IGFBP-2 ≈ IGFBP-3. The estimated Kd for zinc ranged from 27 nM to 340 nM. To test the hypothesis that zinc enhanced IGF activity through altering IGFBP binding to IGF, the effects of zinc on IGFBP-3 inhibition of …

Regulation of the Insulin-like Growth Factor System by Retinoic Acid in Human Osteoblast Cells
… and are modulated by six IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) which either inhibit or enhance IGF action. The effect of RA on the IGF system in HBCs has not yet been determined. Therefore, because RA inhibits and IGFs stimulate proliferation and differentiation, I tested the hypothesis that RA inhibits …

Microphysiometry Studies of Rapid Binding of Insulin-Like Growth Factor I by Parental and Transfected Mammary Epithelial Cell Lines
… the effect of insulin-like binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) both in the presence and absence of IGF-I, finding no IGF-I independent effect in the rapid binding experiment and no effect on stimulation of IGFBP-3 pre-incubated cells by subsequent IGF-I challenge. This is of particular interest due to …

Regulation of Bovine Mammary Epithelial Cell Response by Autocrine IGF-I and by Collagen I
… IGF-I and added IGF-I increased the amount of IGFBP-3 secreted by the cells into growth media. Additionally, it was hypothesized that the presence of collagen I, an important ECM protein, would alter the cell production of insulin-like binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), a protein that modulates IGF-I …

Autocrine mechanisms of action of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and hormonal regulation of expression of IGF-finding proteins in mammary epithelial cells
… factor-I (IGF-I) and IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) genes in mammary epithelial cells. To test the hypothesis that IGF-I affects growth of bovine mammary epithelial cells through an autocrine and/or paracrine pathway, several cell lines were developed expressing an ovine exon-2 containing …
