Results from this study1

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I).

    In cell systems, IGFBP-3 did not block des(1‑3)IGF-I protection against V642I-APP toxicity, although it blocked IGF-I protection.

    In plain wordsIn cells, IGFBP-3 did not block des(1‑3)IGF-I protection against mutant APP toxicity, although it blocked IGF-I protection.

    Summary
    IGFBP-3 blocked this action of IGF-I, but not of des(1-3)IGF-I, which was as active as IGF-I in the presence of IGFBP-3.

    Summary · context
    Here, we examined whether IGF-I exerts protective activity against cell death induced by a familial AD (FAD)-linked mutant of amyloid precursor protein (APP), and we found that IGF-I protected cells from toxicity of FAD-associated V642I mutant of APP in multiple cell systems.

    In this study, IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I).
