IGF2 Actions on Trophoblast in Human Placenta Are Regulated by the Insulin-Like Growth Factor 2 Receptor, Which Can Function as Both a Signaling and Clearance Receptor

Insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2) enhances proliferation and survival of human first-trimester cytotrophoblasts (CTB) by signaling through the insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor (IGF1R). However, the role of the IGF2 receptor (IGF2R) in regulating trophoblast kinetics is unclear: It could act a...
