Journal ArticleDOI
Growth hormone receptor immunoreactivity is increased in the subventricular zone of juvenile rat brain after focal ischemia: a potential role for growth hormone in injury-induced neurogenesis.

TL;DR: Results indicate a novel role for GH and its receptor in injury-induced neurogenesis, and suggest that GH treatment may potentiate endogenous neuro-restorative processes after brain injury.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of fluctuating glucose levels on neuronal cells in vitro.
TL;DR: Both treatments showed that fluctuating osmolality did not result in a significant change in mitochondrial activity and had no effects on 14Cglucose uptake, suggesting that adverse effects on mitochondrial function were specifically related to metabolically active glucose fluctuations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiology and pathophysiology of IGFBP-1 and IGFBP-2 - consensus and dissent on metabolic control and malignant potential.
TL;DR: A relationship between IGFBP-2 and breast cancer, ovarian cancer and prostate cancer does indeed appear to be present, and there is accumulating evidence for an effect of IGF BP-2 on PI3K signalling via PTEN, particularly in breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interactions between bcl-2 and the IGF system control apoptosis in the developing mouse brain.
TL;DR: These studies indicate that in the developing brain IGF-I modulates expression of its major binding protein IGFBP-2, as well as the Bcl-2 protein, which is likely to provide a robust system of cell protection during brain development and repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Investigation of leptin regulates skeletal muscle IGFBP-2 by both direct peripheral and central (via the sympathetic nervous system) mechanisms, and these likely impact on peripheral insulin sensitivity and glucose metabolism.
