A role for insulin-like growth factor in the regulation of IL-6-responsive human myeloma cell line growth
1 Jul 1997
Abstract excerpt
Insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I, IGF-II) have long been recognized as important mitogens in many types of malignancies. Because the role of IGFs in growth control of myeloma cells has not been extensively examined, we have used a panel of IL-6-responsive myeloma cell lines to address this issue. Initial studies demonstrated that IGF-I and IGF-II significantly enhanced DNA synthesis by each of the four cell...
