The possible role of insulin-like growth factor-1 in osteosarcoma

Li, Yu-sheng, Liu, Qing, He, Hong-bo, Luo, Wei·2019·Current Problems in Cancer

Abstract

Osteosarcoma (OS) is a common malignant tumor of bone, of which clear understanding of molecular pathologic process is not yet possible. Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is a hormone that plays vital role in development and function of many tissues. Unfortunately, IGF-1 and its receptor (IGF-1R)'s over-expression have been implicated in carcinogenesis, and indicated to constitute a risk factor for the development of multiple human cancers, including OS. Increased levels of IGF-1 and IGF-1R have been reported in OS, leading to cancer progression through transformation, proliferation, pro-metastasis, and decreased susceptibility to apoptosis. Over-expression of IGF-1/IGF-1R signaling also contributes to tumor cell survival, metastasis, and resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs. IGF-1 has been included as an OS marker recently, and targeting IGF-1 is an interesting and promising approach in OS therapeutics. However more investigations with clinical trials are necessary to validate the use of drugs against IGF-1 that may provide a basis for new therapeutic approaches to treat this devastating disease. This review article focused on the role of IGF-1/IGF-1R in OS progression and therapeutic aspects of OS targeting IGF-1.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Osteosarcoma tumours arise during puberty, when many progenitor cells undergo differentiation in response to signalling via FGF2, RANKL and IGF1.

    “Osteosarcoma tumours arise during puberty, when many progenitor cells undergo differentiation in response to signalling via, for example, FGF2 (ref.96 ), RANKL 96,97 and IGF1 (ref.98 ).”

  • IGF1 receptor amplifications occur in up to 14% of patients with osteosarcoma and seem to drive activation of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway through the MAPK pathway.

    “Indeed, IGF1 receptor amplifications occur in up to 14% of patients with osteosarcoma 38 , which seems to drive activation of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathway through the MAPK pathway 98 .”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
