IGF are ligands in a complex called the IGF axis, which contains 2 IGF receptors, 6 IGF-binding proteins and IGF-binding protein degrading enzyme[1]. IGF I is secreted in the liver after stimulation by growth hormone. IGF II is required in early development stages. Relevance Inhibition of IGF I influences colon cancer[2]. IGF I has protective effect in neuropathy[3].
