lüll Basic and clinical significance of IGF-I-induced signatures in cancer Werner H; Bruchim IBMC Med 2010[Jan]; 8 (ä): 2The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system mediates growth, differentiation and developmental processes; it is also involved in various metabolic activities. Deregulation of IGF system expression and action is linked to diverse pathologies, ranging from growth deficits to cancer development. Targeting of the IGF axis emerged in recent years as a promising therapeutic approach in cancer and other medical conditions. Rational use of IGF-I-induced gene signatures may help to identify patients who might benefit from IGF axis-directed therapeutic modalities. In the accompanying research article in BMC Medicine, Rajski et al. show that IGF-I-induced gene expression in primary breast and lung fibroblasts accurately predict outcomes in breast and lung cancer patients.See the associated research paper by Rajski et al: http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7015/8/1.|*Gene Expression Profiling[MESH]|*Gene Expression Regulation, Neoplastic[MESH]|Biomarkers, Pharmacological[MESH]|Breast Neoplasms/diagnosis/drug therapy/genetics/*metabolism/pathology[MESH]|Cell Line, Tumor[MESH]|Computational Biology[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Fibroblasts/metabolism/pathology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Insulin-Like Growth Factor I/*metabolism[MESH]|Oligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis[MESH]|Prognosis[MESH]|Signal Transduction/drug effects/genetics[MESH]|Transforming Growth Factor beta/genetics[MESH]|Wnt Proteins/genetics[MESH] |
