2000: Expression of mRNA encoding IGF-I, IGF-II and type 1 IGF receptor in bovine ovarian follicles". 18) It has been suggested that abnormalities of IGF-II gene or IGF-II receptor gene lead to up-regulation of IGF-II resulting in overgrowth of the placental tissue. Evidence exists for dissimilar roles of the two IGFs, in that IGF-II appears to be primarily responsible for the terminal differentiation of skeletal muscle cells and the down-regulation of IGF-I receptor gene expression, whereas IGF-I is responsible for myogenesis (Rosenthal et al. |
