Publisher description
Insulin-like growth factors are ubiquitously expressed and are crucial for
growth and function of almost all cells. Together with their binding proteins
and receptors, they form a widely studied biological system involving many
proteins and characterized by complex interactions. In addition to its
significance in growth and development, the insulin-like growth factor system
also has important roles in a wide variety of pathological states. This has led
to interest in the therapeutic potential of insulin-like growth factors and
their binding proteins as candidate drug targets. This comprehensive book contains contemporary information on both basic
science and clinical aspects of IGFs and their regulatory proteins, with
emphasis on their relevance to cancer. Insulin-like growth factors are ubiquitously expressed and are crucial for
