I'm mean it is complicated, I wish I understood everything that goes on with the system but sadly I do not so I have to rely on information posted below. This complex system consists of two cell-surface receptors (IGF1R and IGF2R), two ligands (Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-I) and Insulin-like growth factor … [Read more...]
