Growth Factor I, a 70aa secreted mitogenic polypeptide and member of the insulin gene family, produced primarily by the liver.
IGFI exhibits both autocrine and paracrine properties and has a widespread effect on cells including those of the bone, cartilage, muscle, nerves, skin, liverand lungs, playing a key role in cell proliferation and growth, inhibition of apoptosis and linked with tumor cell growth.
IGFI signals through binding to the type 1 insulinlike growth factor receptor (IGF1R) and also to the insulin receptor (IR), resulting in the activation of the AKT signalling pathway.
Production of IGFI is stimulated by growth hormone (GH) and can be hindered by GH insensitivity, deficiency in GH receptors or a malfunction in the post GH receptor signalling pathway.
