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 کاملThe growth hormone-insulin-like growth factor-I axis.
The aim of the GH-2000 project is to develop a method for detecting GH doping among athletes. Previous papers in the GH-2000 project have proposed that a forthcoming method to detect GH doping will need specific components from the GH/IGF-I axis and bone markers because these specific variables seem more sensitive to exogenous GH than to exercise. The present study examined the responses of the...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factors act synergistically with basic fibroblast growth factor and nerve growth factor to promote chromaffin cell proliferation.
We have investigated the effects of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and nerve growth factor (NGF) on DNA synthesis in cultured chromaffin cells from fetal, neonatal, and adult rats by using 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdUrd) pulse labeling for 24 or 48 h and immunocytochemical staining of cell nuclei. After 6 days in culture in the absence of growth fact...
