1 Suramin inhibits growth and yet promotes insulin-like growth factor II expression in HepG2 cells. Suramin insulin like growth factor 2 Homo sapiens
2 In parallel, suramin induced the expression of the 6.0-kilobase transcript of insulin-like growth factor II (IGF II) but had no significant effect on transforming growth factor beta 1 mRNA levels in these cells. Suramin insulin like growth factor 2 Homo sapiens
3 The growth-inhibitory effect of suramin was not mediated through IGF II, since addition of IGF II directly to the medium mildly stimulated the growth of HepG2 cells in a dose-responsive manner. Suramin insulin like growth factor 2 Homo sapiens
