IGF-I and des(1-3)IGF-I stimulated neuroblast chemotaxis in a dose-dependent manner.
2 context sentences(design, population, supporting numbers)
SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells express IGF receptors, IGFs and IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs), and provide a model for studying the role of the IGF system in human neuronal development.
We investigated the effect of IGF-I and des(1-3)IGF-I on the motility of SH-SY5Y cells by a cell migration assay based on the assessment of the number of cells which migrated across 8 microm pore size membranes and around an agarose drop.
