Journal ArticleDOI
The Mitogenic and Myogenic Actions of Insulin-like Growth Factors Utilize Distinct Signaling Pathways
TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the MAP kinase pathway plays a primary role in the mitogenic response and is inhibitory to the myogenic response in L6A1 myoblasts, while activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/p70S6k pathway is essential for IGF-stimulated differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
IGF-II is more active than IGF-I in stimulating L6A1 myogenesis: greater mitogenic actions of IGF-I delay differentiation
TL;DR: Evidence is presented that the greater mitogenic activity of IGF‐l (compared to IGF‐ll and insulin) delays L6A 1 myoblast differentiation and that the Type Ireceptor plays a major role in relaying the signal for differentiation in IGF‐I and IGF‐II analogs.
