    Background

    Insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins (IGFBPs) play an integral role in modifying insulin-like growth factor (IGF) actions in various cell types. This family contains six members that are structurally related but encoded by distinct genes. IGFBPs have a high affinity for IGFs. Some IGFBP family members have been consistently shown to inhibit IGF actions by preventing them from gaining access to IGF receptors, while others potentiate IGF actions by facilitating the ligand-receptor interaction (1-3). IGFBP2 is the second most abundant IGFBP in the circulation and is present in various other biological fluids and tissues of many vertebrate species. Serum IGFBP2 levels are elevated in conditions such as shock, fasting, hypoxemia, or after traumata, suggesting complex regulation of IGFBP2 expression (4). IGFBP2 is overexpressed in many malignancies and is often correlated with an increasingly malignant tumor status, pointing to a potential involvement of IGFBP2 in tumorigenesis (5).
