Are the insulin-like growth factors relevant to cancer?

Growth hormone & IGF research : official journal of the Growth Hormone Research Society and the International IGF Research Society - 1 Dec 2001

Yee D

Abstract excerpt

Recognition of molecular pathways relevant to cancer biology have led to advances in prevention and treatment. Numerous laboratory and clinical investigations have implicated the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) in tumourigenesis. In this review, the evidence for the involvement of IGFs in cancer is discussed. While these data are persuasive, it is clear that additional methods to regulate IGF action in cancer...
