Source sentences
Transport of (125)I-des(1-3)IGF-I was more rapid than (125)I-IGF-I, suggesting the presence of some endogenous IGFBPs, although these were undetectable by affinity labeling of cells or medium.
1 context sentence(design, population, supporting numbers)
We have established a human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) monolayer system to study the role of complex formation with IGF binding protein (IGFBP) and acid-labile subunit (ALS) on the transendothelial transport of IGF.
