IGF-1 Cancer Research Results

IGF-1, insulin-like growth factor-1: Click to Expand ⟱
Source:
Type:
Higher blood levels of IGF-1, a growth factor, are linked to increased risk of several types of cancer, including thyroid, melanoma and myeloma. IGF-1 is what some call "a growth-promoter" because it has been shown to promote the growth of cancer cells.
The IGF-1 signaling pathway promotes cancer progression; its downregulation is associated with lowered risk.

3847- MSM,    Methylsulfonylmethane: Applications and Safety of a Novel Dietary Supplement
- Review, Arthritis, NA
*Inflam↓, common use as an anti-inflammatory agent
*Pain↓, A variety of health-specific outcome measures are improved with MSM supplementation, including inflammation, joint/muscle pain, oxidative stress, and antioxidant capacity.
*ROS↓,
*antiOx↑,
*Dose↝, MSM is well-tolerated by most individuals at dosages of up to four grams daily, with few known and mild side effects
*Half-Life↝, Pharmacokinetic studies indicate that MSM is rapidly absorbed in rats [63,64] and humans [65], taking 2.1 h and <1 h, respectively.
*NF-kB↓, The inhibitory effect of MSM on NF-κB results in the downregulation of mRNA for interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in vitro
*IL1↓,
*IL6↓,
*TNF-α↓,
*iNOS↓, MSM can also diminish the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) through suppression of NF-κB;
*COX2↓,
*NLRP3↓, MSM negatively affects the expression of the NLRP3 inflammasome by downregulating the NF-κB production of the NLRP3 inflammasome transcript and/or by blocking the activation signal in the form of mitochondrial generated reactive oxygen species (ROS)
*NRF2↑, MSM influences the activation of at least four types of transcription factors: NF-κB, signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT), p53, and nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2).
*STAT↓, MSM has been shown to repress the expression or activities of STAT transcription factors in a number of cancer cell lines in vitro
*Cartilage↑, , in vitro studies suggest that MSM protects cartilage through its suppressive effects on IL-1β and TNF-α
*eff↑, Supplementation with glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate, MSM, guava leaf extract, and Vitamin D improved physical function in patients with knee osteoarthritis based on the Japanese Knee OA Measure
*eff↑, MSM in combination with boswellic acid was also shown to improve knee joint function as assessed through the Lequesne Index
*GSH↑, MSM is able to restore the reduced glutathione (GSH)/oxidized glutathione (GSSG) ratio to normal levels, decrease NO production, and reduce neuronal ROS production following HIV-1 Tat exposure
*uricA↓, Humans studies show promise for MSM as an antioxidant with similar results noted, including reductions in MDA [19,167,168], protein carbonyls (PC) [167,168], and uric acid [168] and increases in GSH [167] and TEAC [159,161,168].
tumCV↓, MSM independently has been shown to be cytotoxic to cancer cells by inhibiting cell viability through the induction of cell cycle arrest [119,122,123], necrosis [119], or apoptosis
TumCCA↑,
necrosis↑,
Apoptosis↑,
VEGF↓, reduced expression of oncogenic proteins such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) [99,100,101,123], heat shock protein (HSP)90α [100], and insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R)
HSP90↓,
