Abstract

Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) has been shown to inhibit cell growth by IGF-dependent and -independent mechanisms. The putative cell-surface IGFBP-3 receptor that mediates the IGF-independent growth inhibition has not been identified. Here we show that recombinant human IGFBP-3 inhibits 125I-transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 binding to the type V TGF-beta receptor (Mr 400,000) in mink lung epithelial cells. We also demonstrate that the approximately 400-kDa 125I-IGFBP-3 affinity-labeled putative IGFBP-3 receptor is immunoprecipitated by specific antiserum to the type V TGF-beta receptor. The 125I-IGFBP-3 affinity labeling of the putative receptor and IGFBP-3-induced growth inhibition as measured by DNA synthesis in these cells is blocked by a TGF-beta1 peptide antagonist. The 125I-IGFBP-3 affinity-labeled putative receptor can only be detected in cells expressing the type V TGF-beta receptor, but not in cells lacking the type V TGF-beta receptor. These results indicate that the type V TGF-beta receptor is the putative IGFBP-3 receptor and that IGFBP-3 is a functional ligand for the type V TGF-beta receptor.

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.
