Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding proteins: interactions with IGFs and intrinsic bioactivities 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding proteins (IGFBPs) are a family of six homologous proteins with high binding affinity for IGF-I and IGF-II. Information from NMR and mutagenesis studies is advancing knowledge of the key residues involved in these interactions. IGF binding may be modulated by IGFBP modifications, such as phosphorylation and proteolysis, and by cell or matrix association of the IGFBPs. All six IGFBPs have been shown to inhibit IGF action, but stimulatory effects have also been established for IGFBP-1, -3, and -5. These generally involve a decrease in IGFBP affinity and may require cell association of the IGFBP, but precise mechanisms are unknown. The same three IGFBPs have well established effects that are independent of type I IGF receptor signaling. IGFBP-1 exerts these effects by signaling through alpha(5)beta(1)-integrin, whereas IGFBP-3 and -5 may have specific cell-surface receptors with serine kinase activity. The regulation of cell sensitivity to inhibitory IGFBP signaling may play a role in the growth control of malignant cells. 相似文献

The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding proteins (IGFBPs) have several functions, including transporting the IGFs in the circulation, mediating IGF transport out of the vascular compartment, localizing the IGFs to specific cell types, and modulating both IGF binding to receptors and growth-promoting actions. The functions of IGFBPs appear to be altered by posttranslational modifications. IGFBP-3, -4, -5, and -6 have been shown to be glycosylated. Likewise all the IGFBPs have a complex disulfide bond structure that is required for maintenance of normal IGF binding. IGFBP-2, -3, -4, and -5 are proteolytically cleaved, and specific proteases have been characterized for IGFBP-3, -4, and -5. Interestingly, attachment of IGF-I or II to IGFBP-4 results in enhancement of proteolysis, whereas attachment of either growth factor to IGFBP-5 results in inhibition of proteolytic cleavage. Cleavage of IGFBP-3 results in the appearance of a 31 kDa fragment that is 50-fold reduced in its affinity for the IGF-I or IGF-II. In spite of the reduction in its affinity, this fragment is capable of potentiating the effect of IGF-I on cell growth responses; therefore, proteolysis may be a specific mechanism that alters IGFBP modulation of IGF actions. Other processes that result in a reduction in IGF binding protein affinity are associated with potentiation of cellular responses to IGF-I and -II. Specifically, the binding of IGFBP-3 to cell surfaces is associated with its ability to enhance IGF action and with a ten- to 12-fold reduction in its affinity for IGF-I and IGF-II. Likewise, binding of IGFBP-5 to extracellular matrix (ECM) results in an eightfold reduction in its affinity and a 60% increase in cell growth in response to IGF-I. Another post-translational modification that modifies IGFBP activity is phosphorylation. IGFBP-1, -2, -3, and -5 have been shown to be phosphorylated. Phosphorylation of IGFBP-1 results in a sixfold enhancement in its affinity for IGF-I and -II. Following this enhancement of IGFBP-1 affinity, this binding protein loses its capacity to potentiate IGF-I growth-promoting activity. Future studies using site-directed mutagenesis to modify these proteins should enable us to determine the effect of these posttranslational modifications on the ability of IGFBPs to modulate IGF biologic activity. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Summary The interactions between insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) and insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are important
in regulating the availability of IGFs to the type 1 IGF receptor (IGF1R) but there is still a lack of information regarding
the mechanism of IGF binding by IGFBPs. While many studies have defined general regions of the IGFBPs that interact with IGFs,
only recently have specific IGF binding residues been described. This review will outline the structural evidence describing
residues of both the IGFBPs and IGFs involved in the IGFBP·IGF interaction. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding protein-5 blocks skeletal muscle differentiation by inhibiting IGF actions 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Signaling through the IGF-I receptor by locally produced IGF-I or -II is critical for normal skeletal muscle development and repair after injury. In most tissues, IGF action is modulated by IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs). IGFBP-5 is produced by muscle cells, and previous studies have suggested that when overexpressed it may either facilitate or inhibit IGF actions, and thus potentially enhance or diminish IGF-mediated myoblast differentiation or survival. To resolve these contradictory observations and discern the mechanisms of action of IGFBP-5, we studied its effects in cultured muscle cells. Purified wild-type (WT) mouse IGFBP-5 or a variant with diminished extracellular matrix binding (C domain mutant) each prevented differentiation at final concentrations as low as 3.5 nm, whereas analogs with reduced IGF binding (N domain mutant) were ineffective even at 100 nm. None of the IGFBP-5 variants altered cell number. An IGF-I analog (R(3)IGF-I) with diminished affinity for IGFBPs promoted full muscle differentiation in the presence of IGFBP-5(WT), showing that IGFBP-5 interferes with IGF-dependent signaling pathways in myoblasts. When IGFBP-5(WT) or variants were overexpressed by adenovirus-mediated gene transfer, concentrations in muscle culture medium reached 500 nm, and differentiation was inhibited, even by IGFBP-5(N). As 200 nm of purified IGFBP-5(N) prevented activation of the IGF-I receptor by 10 nm IGF-II as effectively as 2 nm of IGFBP-5(WT), our results not only demonstrate that IGFBP-5 variants with reduced IGF binding affinity impair muscle differentiation by blocking IGF actions, but underscore the need for caution when labeling effects of IGFBPs as IGF independent because even low-affinity analogs may potently inhibit IGF-I or -II if present at high enough concentrations in biological fluids. 相似文献

The insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF 1R) mediates the acute metabolic effects of IGF I as well as IGF I-stimulated cell proliferation and protection from apoptosis. IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) can modulate these responses. We, therefore, investigated whether intrinsic IGFBPs interfere with IGF I-induced regulation of IGF 1R expression and with the biological response to IGF I in two human tumor cell lines, the non-small-cell lung cancer cell line A549 and the osteoblastic osteosarcoma cell line Saos-2/B-10. We compared the growth rates, IGFBP production, IGF I binding characteristics, IGF 1R protein and mRNA levels, and the acute IGF I response (stimulation of glycogen synthesis) after pretreatment of the cells in serum-free medium with or without added IGF I or medium supplemented with 5% fetal calf serum (FCS). In contrast to A549 cells, which produce IGF I and significant amounts of IGFBPs, survival and proliferation of Saos-2/B-10 cells, which do not produce IGF I or significant amounts of IGFBPs, depended on the addition of exogenous IGF I. IGF I increased the concentration of IGFBP-2 and -3 and decreased the concentration of IGFBP-4 in the medium of A549 cells. As compared to FCS, IGF I pretreatment in both cell lines decreased the number of specific IGF I binding sites, down-regulated total and membrane IGF 1R protein, and largely reduced or abolished the acute IGF I response without affecting IGF 1R mRNA levels. The data suggest that the IGF 1R protein of the two cell lines is translationally and/or posttranslationally down-regulated by its ligand in the presence and in the absence of locally produced IGFBPs and that the cell lines have retained this negative feedback to counteract IGF I stimulation. 相似文献

Human osteoblast-derived insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding protein-5 stimulates osteoblast mitogenesis and potentiates IGF action. 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding proteins (IGFBPs) either inhibit or enhance IGF-stimulated cellular effects. While inhibition occurs by sequestration of IGF from cell-surface receptors, the exact mechanism of IGF-enhancement remains undefined. Human osteoblast-like bone cells in culture secrete several IGF-binding proteins, one of which we have previously identified as IGFBP-5. In this study we purified a 23-kDa IGFBP-5 from cultures of human osteoblast-like cells using ligand affinity chromatography and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography and tested its bioactivity in serum-free cultures of normal mouse osteoblast-like cells. Binding studies with radioiodinated IGF showed similar and relatively low affinities for IGF-I and IGF-II consistent with a carboxyl truncated IGF-binding protein. Mitogenic assays demonstrated that the binding protein, when coincubated with IGF-I or -II, enhanced mitogenesis. This enhancement was unique from other binding proteins in not requiring a preincubation period or serum co-factors. Furthermore, the osteoblast-derived IGFBP-5 stimulated mitogenesis in the absence of exogenous or endogenous IGF. Using radioiodinated IGFBP-5 we found that the binding protein could associate with the osteoblast surface, an effect which did not require IGF nor an interaction with IGF receptors. We suggest that osteoblast-derived IGFBP-5 may stimulate osteoblast mitogenesis in at least two ways, by association with IGF and by a second pathway that is independent of IGF receptor activation. 相似文献

The bioavailability and action of the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are determined by specific IGF-binding proteins (IGFBP) to which they are complexed. Complementary DNA clones have been isolated that encode three related IGFBPs: human IGFBP-1 (hIGFBP-1), human IGFBP-3 (hIGFBP-3), and rat IGFBP-2 (rIGFBP-2). IGFBP-1 and IGFBP-3 are regulated differently in human plasma, suggesting that they have different functions. In order to study the molecular basis of the regulation of the different IGFBPs, we have identified a panel of rat cell lines that express a single predominant binding protein and developed an assay strategy to distinguish the different binding proteins. Proteins in conditioned medium were examined by ligand blotting, and by immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting using antibodies to rIGFBP-2 and hIGFBP-1; RNAs were hybridized to cDNA probes for rIGFBP-2 and hIGFBP-1. 1) C6 glial cells and B104 neuroblastoma cells express an approximately 40 kilodalton (kDa) glycosylated binding protein that most likely represents rIGFBP-3, the binding subunit of the 150 kDa IGF: binding protein complex in adult rat serum. The C6 and B104 binding proteins do not react with antibodies to rIGFBP-2, and RNAs from C6 and B104 cells do not hybridize to cDNA probes for rIGFBP-2 or hIGFBP-1. 2) BRL-3A, Clone 9, and TRL 12-15 cell lines derived from normal rat liver express rIGFBP-2, a 30 kDa nonglycosylated IGF-binding protein that is recognized by antibodies to rIGFBP-2 but not by antibodies to hIGFBP-1. RNAs from these cells hybridize to a rIGFBP-2 cDNA probe, but not to a hIGFBP-1 probe. 3) H35 rat hepatoma cells express a 30 kDa nonglycosylated IGFBP that is presumptively identified as rIGFBP-1. It does not react with antibodies to rIGFBP-2, but is recognized by polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies to hIGFBP-1. RNA from H35 cells hybridizes to a hIGFBP-1 cDNA probe, but not to a rIGFBP-2 probe. Expression of rIGFBP-1 by the H35 cell line has enabled us to establish and validate specific assays for this protein that allow us to study its regulation in intact rats. Identification of a panel of rat cell lines expressing specific IGFBPs should be useful in elucidating the molecular mechanisms of IGFBP regulation. 相似文献

Glucocorticoids (GCs) modulate insulin-like growth factor action in cartilage through mechanisms that are complex and insufficiently defined, especially in the context of cranio-facial growth. Because the family of IGF-binding proteins (IGFBP-1 to -6) is important in the regulation of IGF availability and bioactivity, we examined the effect of GCs on chondrocyte differentiation in correlation with IGFBP production in cultured fetal rat chondrocytes isolated from nasal septum cartilage of fetal rat. Dexamethasone (DEX) effects were tested before and at the onset of extracellular matrix maturation. DEX induced a dose-dependent increase in the size of cartilage nodule formed, (45)Ca incorporation into extracellular matrix, alkaline phosphatase activity, and sulfatation of glycosaminoglycans, maximal effects being obtained with a 10-mM DEX concentration. The IGFBPs produced by cultured chondrocytes were characterized in culture medium which had been conditioned for 24 h under serum-free conditions by these cells. Western ligand blotting with a mixture of [(125)I]IGF-I and -II revealed bands of 20, 24, 29, a 31-32 kDa doublet and a 39-41 kDa triplet which were differently regulated by DEX. Immunoblotting showed that following DEX exposure, IGFBP-3 and -6 were up-regulated whereas IGFBP-2, -5, and the 24 kDa band were down-regulated. The effect of DEX on both differentiation and IGFBP production showed a same dependence, and developed when extracellular matrix maturation had been just induced. The results obtained in this chondrocyte culture system show that production of IGFBPs is modulated by DEX at physiological concentrations thus regulating IGF availability and action, a control which could promote the primordial role of the rat nasal septum in craniofacial growth. 相似文献

Involvement of growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system in ovarian folliculogenesis 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
During the last decade, involvement of growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) in ovarian folliculogenesis has been extensively studied. This review provides an update on the GH, IGF system and their role in ovarian follicular development. In vitro studies and knockout experiments demonstrated an important role of GH in preantral follicle growth and differentiation through their binding with GH receptors, which are located both in the oocyte and follicular somatic tissues. Furthermore, GH stimulates the development of small antral follicles to gonadotrophin-dependent stages, as well as maturation of oocytes. With regard to the IGF system, IGF-I has no effects on primordial follicle development, but both IGF-I and IGF-II stimulate growth of secondary follicles. Depending on the species studies and method used, these proteins have been detected in oocytes and/or somatic cells. In antral follicles, these IGFs stimulate granulosa cell proliferation and steroidogenesis in most mammals. The bioavailability of IGFs is regulated by a family of intrafollicular expressed IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs). Facilitation of IGF can be increased through the activity of specific IGFBP proteases, which degrade the IGF/IGFBP complex, resulting in the production of IGFBP fragments and release of attached IGF. 相似文献

Characterization of insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins of porcine ovarian follicular fluid.
Using competitive ligand-binding studies, ligand blotting, and immunoprecipitation, we have characterized the insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding proteins (BPs) of porcine follicular fluid. Competitive ligand-binding studies revealed a preference of ovarian IGFBPs for IGF-II over IGF-I. Follicular fluid from small, 1-3-mm follicles had nearly twice the binding capacity for IGFs as that from large, 6-10-mm follicles. Ligand blots of porcine follicular fluid resolved 5 major bands of IGF-binding activity having apparent molecular sizes of 44, 40, 34, 29, and 22 kDa. The 40-44-kDa bands were immunoprecipitated by an antibody to porcine IGFBP-3, the acid-stable subunit of the 150-kDa growth hormone-dependent IGF-binding protein complex of porcine serum. The 34-kDa band was immunoprecipitated by an antibody to rat IGFBP-2, the major IGF-binding protein found in fetal rat serum. To date we have been unable to immunoprecipitate the 29- and 22-kDa bands with any of the antibodies tested, including a panel of monoclonal antibodies to human IGFBP-1, the amniotic fluid IGF-binding protein. The 40-44-kDa species (IGFBP-3) was the predominant form and was equally abundant in fluid from large and small follicles. In contrast, the smaller forms, including IGFBP-2 and the 29- and 22-kDa forms were significantly more prominent in fluid from small follicles. In view of other studies indicating a significant effect of IGFBPs on ovarian cell function, follicular IGFBPs may play an important role in the IGF autocrine/paracrine regulatory system of the ovary. 相似文献

In sheep, the presence of the Booroola F gene has several important consequences for ovarian function. This study investigated the consequences of the presence of the F gene for the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system in the ewe ovary. Studies were undertaken in ovaries from F+ and ++ Mérinos d'Arles ewes to determine 1) the levels of type I IGF receptors and IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) in follicular cells by quantitative autoradiography of [(125)]-IGF-I binding sites on ovarian sections; 2) the pattern of intrafollicular IGFBPs, by Western-ligand blotting on follicular fluids; and 3) the effects of IGF-I and FSH on proliferation and differentiation of granulosa cells in vitro, assessed by progesterone secretion and cytochrome P450 side-chain cleavage (P450(scc)) expression. The amounts of type I IGF receptors were similar in F+ and ++ follicular cells; however, at the same follicular size, F+ healthy follicles contained lower concentrations of IGFBPs smaller than 40 kDa (particularly IGFBP-2) than ++ healthy follicles. In vitro, in basal conditions as well as in IGF-I- or FSH-stimulated conditions (or both), granulosa cells from F+ follicles had a lower proliferative activity, secreted higher amounts of progesterone, and expressed higher levels of P450(scc) than granulosa cells from ++ follicles of the same size. When F+ and ++ preovulatory follicles were compared at the end of the follicular phase, IGFBPs <40 kDa concentrations were slightly higher, and responsiveness of granulosa cells to FSH in vitro was lower in F+ than in ++ follicles, suggesting that terminal maturation of F+ follicles, although precocious, was less complete than it was in ++ follicles. The early decrease in intrafollicular IGFBPs <40 kDa concentrations observed in F+ antral follicles, which likely leads to an early increase in IGF bioavailability, may at least partly account for the increased ovulation rate that characterizes F-carrier ewes. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF II) and four structural analogs, constructed by site-directed mutagenesis, were expressed as protein A fusion proteins in Escherichia coli BL21pLysS cells, cleaved with cyanogen bromide and purified by affinity chromatography and HPLC. Two mutants (Ser29 substituted by Arg-Leu-Pro-Gly, and Ser33 substituted by Cys-Gly-Asp) represent two naturally occurring variants of IGF II. The other two mutants, (7-67)IGF II and (9-67)IGF II, are truncated at the amino-terminus in analogy to the naturally occurring des(1-3)IGF I ('truncated IGF I'). These mutants were tested for their binding affinities to type-1 and type-2 IGF receptors, to IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) and for their stimulation of thymidine incorporation into DNA. The affinities of the Ser29 and Ser33 mutants to the type-1 IGF receptor were 85% and 39%, respectively, compared to wild-type IGF II, those of (7-67)IGF II and (9-67)IGF II 96% and 15%, respectively. The potencies of the Ser33 and the (9-67) mutant to stimulate thymidine incorporation into DNA correlated closely with the affinities to the type-1 IGF receptor, whereas the bioavailability of the Ser29 mutant was lower and that of the (7-67) mutant higher than the type-1 receptor binding, possibly due to interferences with endogenously secreted IGFBPs. The affinities of the Ser29 and Ser33 mutants to the type-2 IGF receptor were 110% and 71%, respectively, those of the two truncated mutants 25% and 23%, respectively. The affinity of the Ser29 mutant to IGFBP-3 was increased to 171%, whereas those of the Ser33 mutant and the two truncated mutants were reduced (34%, 10% and 19%, respectively). 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF1) has been reported to stimulate hair elongation and to facilitate maintenance of the hair follicle in anagen phase. However, little is known about IGF1 signaling in the hair follicle. In this study we investigate the effects of IGF1, glucocorticoids, and retinoids on dermal papilla (DP) cell production of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs). IGFBPs comprise a family of IGF binding proteins that are produced and released by most cell types. They bind to IGFs to either enhance or inhibit IGF activity. In the present report we identify IGFBP-3 as being produced and released by cultured human dermal papilla (DP) cells. IGFBP-3 levels are increased fivefold by retinoic acid, eightfold by dexamethasone, and tenfold by IGF1. DP cells are known to produce IGF1, and so the observed stimulation of DP cell IGFBP-3 production by IGF1 is consistent with the idea that DP cells possess the IGF transmembrane receptor kinase and are autoregulated by IGFs. The level of another IGFBP, tentatively identified as IGFBP-2, is, in contrast, not regulated by these agents. IGFBP-3 has been shown to inhibit the activity of IGFs in a variety of systems. Our results are consistent with a model in which retinoids and glucocorticoids inhibit IGF action on DP cells and surrounding matrix cells by stimulating increased DP cell production of IGFBP-3. The IGFBP-3, in turn, forms a complex with free IGF1 to reduce the concentration of IGF1 available to stimulate hair elongation and maintenance of anagen phase. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

In the circulation, most of the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs), and IGFBP proteases are bound in high molecular mass complexes of > or =150 kDa. To investigate molecular interactions between proteins involved in IGF.IGFBP complexes, Cohn fraction IV of human plasma was subjected to IGF-II affinity chromatography followed by reversed-phase high pressure liquid chromatography and analysis of bound proteins. Mass spectrometry and Western blotting revealed the presence of IGFBP-3, IGFBP-5, transferrin, plasminogen, prekallikrein, antithrombin III, and the soluble IGF-II/mannose 6-phosphate receptor in the eluate. Furthermore, an IGFBP-3 protease cleaving also IGFBP-2 but not IGFBP-4 was co-purified from the IGF-II column. Inhibitor studies and IGFBP-3 zymography have demonstrated that the 92-kDa IGFBP-3 protease belongs to the class of serine-dependent proteases. IGF-II ligand blotting and surface plasmon resonance spectrometry have been used to identify plasminogen as a novel high affinity IGF-II-binding protein capable of binding to IGFBP-3 with 50-fold higher affinity than transferrin. In combination with transferrin, the overall binding constant of plasminogen/transferrin for IGF-II was reduced 7-fold. Size exclusion chromatography of the IGF-II matrix eluate revealed that transferrin, plasminogen, and the IGFBP-3 protease are present in different high molecular mass complexes of > or =440 kDa. The present data indicate that IGFs, low and high affinity IGFBPs, several IGFBP-associated proteins, and IGFBP proteases can interact, which may result in the formation of binary, ternary, and higher molecular weight complexes capable of modulating IGF binding properties and the stability of IGFBPs. 相似文献

The insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) family comprises six structurally distinct, but highly homologous proteins. They have been identified in serum and other biological fluids, tissue extracts, and cell culture media. We have recently cloned cDNAs encoding human IGFBP-4, -5, and -6 and have now expressed these BPs in yeast as ubiquitin (Ub)-IGFBP fusion proteins. Western ligand blotting with 125I-IGF II under nonreducing conditions of recombinant human (rh) IGFBP-containing yeast lysates revealed specific binding bands for IGFBP-4, -5, and -6 at apparent molecular masses of 24-26, 30-32, and 24-26 kDa, respectively, indicating processing of the fusion proteins. High-performance liquid chromatography-purified rhIGFBPs had virually the same amino acid composition, amino acid number, and NH2-terminal sequences as the native BPs. Except for the affinity of rhIGFBP-6 for IGF I (Ka = 8.5 x 10(8) M-1), the affinity constants of the three IGFBPs for IGF I and II lie between 1.7 and 3.3 x 10(10) M-1, i.e. 25-100 times higher than the IGF I and II affinities of the type I IGF receptor. When present in excess, rhIGFBP-4, -5, and -6 inhibited IGF I- and II-stimulated DNA and glycogen synthesis in human osteoblastic cells, but rhIGFBP-6 had only a weak inhibitory effect on IGF I in agreement with its relatively lower IGF I affinity constant. The results of this study show that the primary effect of the three rhIGFBPs is the attenuation of IGF activity and suggest that IGFBPs contribute to the control of IGF-mediated cell growth and metabolism. 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs) are soluble proteins present in in extracellular fluids. They have high affinity for IGF-I and -II. Blood concentrations are controlled by nutrition and by hormones in a manner that in most, but not all, instances correlates with plasma concentrations of IGF-I or -II. IGF binding proteins are secreted by a range of cell types in a manner that may serve to modulate the functions of the growth factors in a pericellular environment. IGF binding proteins cxan modify IGF interaction with the type I receptor and may thereby alter IGF signal transduction through this transmembrane signalling unit. Binding proteins may also act as inhibitors or potentiators of biological responsiveness and thereby directly cell type specific responses. 相似文献

Angiogenesis is a tightly regulated activity that is vital during embryonic development and for normal physiological repair processes and reproduction in healthy adults. Pathological angiogenesis is a driving force behind a variety of diseases including cancer and retinopathies, and inhibition of angiogenesis is a therapeutic option that has been the subject of much research, with several inhibitory agents now available for medical therapy. Conversely, therapeutic angiogenesis has been mooted as having significant potential in the treatment of ischemic conditions such as angina pectoris and peripheral arterial disease, but so far there has been less translation from lab to bedside.The insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBP) are a family of seven proteins essential for the binding and transport of the insulin-like growth factors (IGF). It is being increasingly recognised that IGFBPs have a significant role beyond simply modulating IGF activity, with evidence of both IGF dependent and independent actions through a variety of mechanisms. Moreover, the action of the IGFBPs can be stimulatory or inhibitory depending on the cell type and environment. Specifically the IGFBPs have been heavily implicated in angiogenesis, both pathological and physiological, and they have significant promise as targeted cell therapy agents for both pathological angiogenesis inhibition and therapeutic angiogenesis following ischemic injury. In this short review we will explore the current understanding of the individual impact of each IGFBP on angiogenesis, and the pathways through which these effects occur. 相似文献

Cellular actions of insulin-like growth factor binding proteins. 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
The insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs), and the IGFBP proteases are involved in the regulation of somatic growth and cellular proliferation both in vivo and in vitro. IGFs are potent mitogenic agents whose actions are determined by the availability of free IGFs to interact with the IGF receptors. IGFBPs comprise a family of proteins that bind IGFs with high affinity and specificity and thereby regulate IGF-dependent actions. IGFBPs have recently emerged as IGF-independent regulators of cell growth. Various IGFBP association proteins as well as cleavage of IGFBPs by specific proteases modulate levels of free IGFs and IGFBPs. The ubiquity and complexity of the IGF axis promise exciting discoveries and applications for the future. 相似文献
