Insulin-like growth factor II and its receptors in atherosclerosis and in conditions predisposing to atherosclerosis.

Current opinion in lipidology - 1 Oct 2003

Zaina Silvio, Nilsson Jan

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Growth factors regulate cellular migration, proliferation, and the production of extracellular matrix during the development of the atherosclerotic lesion. Here we discuss experimental evidence pointing to insulin-like growth factor II and its receptors as important players in cardiovascular diseases. RECENT FINDINGS: Genetically modified mice with altered levels of insulin-like growth factor...
