Descriptions

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 levels are used to diagnose growth hormone deficiency Source: Regenstrief Institute

Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP3) is a protein encoded by the IGFBP3 gene. Its levels decrease during the progression of prostate cancer from benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) to the metastatic form although its production does not cease completely. Instead of being synthesized at full length, however, IGFBP3 is cleaved thus preventing it from binding and sequestering IGFs. The growth factors are then free to bind the IGF-1R and promote cell survival. Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License.
