Associations of circulating insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 with the expression of stem cell markers in benign breast tissue

Abstract Background The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) pathway is implicated in a naturally occurring process of tissue remodeling during which cells acquire stem cell-like characteristics. We examined associations of circulating IGF-1 and IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) with expression of CD44, C...
