Abstract excerpt
The actions of the insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) which are essential components of skeletal muscle growth are mediated via their receptors and modulated by six binding proteins (IGFBPs). We studied IGFBP transcripts in C2C12 cell cultures and in adult control and denervated gastrocnemius muscle. IGFBP-2, -4, -5, and -6 were detected in C2C12 cells. IGFBP-6 mRNA levels remained unchanged, IGFBP-2...
