Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein 1 MeSH Descriptor Data 2026


MeSH Heading
Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein 1
Tree Number(s)
D12.776.157.420.250
Unique ID
D018970
RDF Unique Identifier
http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D018970
Scope Note
One of the six homologous proteins that specifically bind insulin-like growth factors (SOMATOMEDINS) and modulate their mitogenic and metabolic actions. The function of this protein is not completely defined. However, several studies demonstrate that it inhibits IGF binding to cell surface receptors and thereby inhibits IGF-mediated mitogenic and cell metabolic actions.
