Synthesis and Characterization of IGF-II Analogs: Applications in the Evaluation of IGF Receptor Function and IGF-Independent Actions of IGFBPS

  • Chapter
Current Directions in Insulin-Like Growth Factor Research

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 343))

Abstract

The elucidation of the mechanisms involved in the biological actions of the IGFs has been hampered by the complexity of the IGF system: three peptide ligands (IGF-I, IGF-II and insulin),1 three receptors (type 1 and type 2 IGF receptors and insulin receptors)2 and six distinct, but structurally related binding proteins (IGFBP-1 to IGFBP-6).3 The physiological interactions among these components of the IGF system are not completely understood, although they have all been cloned and sequenced.4
