Interactions between growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor I, and basic fibroblast growth factor in melanocyte growth.
Melanocytes, highly differentiated neural crest-derived cells, are located in the basal layer of the epidermis, where they play a role in protecting against UV damage in the skin. Previous studies suggest that both growth hormone (GH) and the insulin-like growth factor I (GH/IGF-I) system may be important for melanocyte growth and function. We have therefore characterized the role of the GH/IGF...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor I gene polymorphism associated with growth traits in beluga (Huso huso) fish
The aim of the present study was to detect polymorphism in Insulin like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene of beluga (Huso huso) fish using PCR-SSCP technique and also investigation of its association with growth traits (condition factor, body length and weight). A total of 150 specimens of beluga were randomly selected and DNA was isolated from caudal fin using modified salting out method. Then two ...

متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor I stimulates erythropoiesis in hypophysectomized rats.
Stimulation of erythropoiesis during growth is necessary to ensure proportionality between erythrocyte mass and body mass. However, the way by which erythrocyte formation is adapted to body growth is still unknown. Growth arrest in hypophysectomized rats is accompanied by decreased erythropoiesis. We have, therefore, examined whether insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), the mediator of growth ...
متن کاملTestosterone stimulates insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor-I-receptor gene expression in the mandibular condyle--a model of endochondral ossification.
Puberty is associated with an increase in the plasma concentration of sex steroids, GH, and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I). Gonadal steroid hormones are important for the normal pubertal growth spurt and skeletal growth. The mechanism by which gonadal steroids induce skeletal growth is still not fully understood. To better understand the direct effect sex steroids have on bone growth, we ...
