Gene Information

human ... IGFBP7(3490)

General description

IGFBP7 (insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7) is from the IGFBP superfamily and is widely expressed in tissues. It contains 11 cysteines, a heparin-binding site, a Kazal-type trypsin inhibitor domain and a carboxyl-terminal immunoglobulin-like type C repeat. The IGFBP7 gene is mapped to human chromosome 4q12.

Biochem/physiol Actions

IGFBP7 (insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7) works as a tumor suppressor as well as an oncogene by controlling cell proliferation, cell attachment, apoptosis and angiogenesis. It is also involved in TGFβ (transforming growth factor β) signal pathway. IGFBP7 also interferes with the insulin pathway and is associated with the development of diabetes as well as cardiovascular diseases.IGFBP7 binds weakly to IGFs (insulin like growth factors) and strongly to insulin. It mainly participates in IGF-independent pathways.

Physical form

Lyophilized from 10 mM Sodium Phosphate, pH 6.8.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.

In the present study, we examined the effects of over-expression of the potential tumor suppressor gene IGFBP-rP1/mac25 on cell-cycle kinetics in prostate cancer cells. The majority of the high expressing IGFBP-rP1/mac25 cell population was located in the G1 and sub-G0/G1

Skeletal myogenic cells respond to the insulin-like growth factors (IGF-I and IGF-II) by differentiating or proliferating, which are mutually exclusive pathways. What determines which of these responses to IGF skeletal myoblast undergo is unclear. IGF-binding protein-related protein 1 (IGFBP-rP1) is

Elevated insulin-like growth factor binding protein-related protein 1 (IGFBP-rP1) mRNA in senescent human mammary epithelial cells suggested that the IGFBP-3 gene product may inhibit cell proliferation. To test this hypothesis, we used a retroviral vector to express IGFBP-rP1 cDNA in
