We have studied the expression of insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) during hepatocarcinogenesis in four independent transgenic mouse lines. In all four lines liver-directed transgene expression induces a stepwise and relatively synchronized tumorigenesis. IGF-II reexpression occurs in all four lines irrespective of the mechanism of tumor induction. Reexpression is chronologically associate...
