Evolution of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) action: in vitro characterization of vertebrate IGF-I proteins

While there is considerable structural evidence that IGFs share a long evolutionary history, less is known about the conservation of IGF action. These studies have primarily been hampered by the small amounts of purified IGFs that have been available for testing. More recently, however, we have adop...
