Association of IGF-1 and IGF-2 genotypes with respiratory muscle strength in individuals with COPD: a cross-sectional study

Medwave; 24 (3), 2024
INTRODUCTION: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease is a systemic disease characterized not only by respiratory symptoms but also by physical deconditioning and muscle weakness. One prominent manifestation of this disease is the decline in respiratory muscle strength. Previous studies have linked the gen...

Association of insulin-like growth factor II mrna-binding protein 3 (IMP3) expression with prognostic and morphological factors in endometrial cancer

Abstract Objective Endometrial cancer (EC) is a heterogeneous disease with recurrence rates ranging from 15 to 20%. The discrimination of cases with a worse prognosis aims, in part, to reduce the length of surgical staging in cases with a better prognosis. This study aimed to evaluate the association b...

Plasma insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) and IGF-II/IGF-I ratio in a chilean case of Doege-Potter Syndrome

Rev. méd. Chile; 151 (10), 2023
INTRODUCTION: Doege-Potter syndrome is a rare clinical entity characterized by recurrent hypoglycemic events caused by non-pancreatic tumors secreting an incompletely processed high-molecular-weight form of Insulin-like Growth factor-II (IGF-II). AIM: To report IGF-II and IGF-I circulating levels in a Ch...

Epigenetic characterization of the H19/IGF2 locus in calf clones placenta

Pesqui. vet. bras; 40 (12), 2020
Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT-Cloning) is a promising technique in many areas and is based on genetically identical individuals. However, its efficiency is low. Studies suggest that the leading cause is inadequate epigenetic reprogramming. This study aimed to characterize the methylation pattern of...

Expressão do mRNA para IGF-2 em oócitos e células do cumulus extraídos de folículos antrais e pré-antrais de ovelhas nativas do Estado de Pernambuco

Pesqui. vet. bras; 37 (5), 2017
Objetivou-se avaliar a expressão do mRNA para o gene do fator de crescimento IGF-2 em oócitos e células do cumulus de ovelhas em diferentes estágios do desenvolvimento folicular. Os folículos classificados morfologicamente como antrais (terciários e pré-ovulatórios) foram aspirados manualmente pa...
