Cadmium cation increases the production and mRNA levels of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-1 in hepG2

The production of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) in HepG2 was increased by cadmium cation (Cdsup(2+)) at 3 microM, but not by other divalent cations. The mRNA level of IGFBP-1 was also increased by the administration of 3 microM of Cdsup(2+). These results suggest that Cdsup(...

Zusammenfassung:The production of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) in HepG2 was increased by cadmium cation (Cdsup(2+)) at 3 microM, but not by other divalent cations. The mRNA level of IGFBP-1 was also increased by the administration of 3 microM of Cdsup(2+). These results suggest that Cdsup(2+) impacts the gene expression of IGFBP-1, which leads to production of IGFBP-1.
