insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 4; IBP-4; IGF-binding protein 4; IGFBP-4 (IGFBP4, IBP4)

Function: - IGF-binding proteins prolong the half-life of the IGFs - they either inhibit or stimulate the growth promoting effects of the IGFs on cell culture - they alter the interaction of IGFs with their cell surface receptors - binds IGF2 more than IGF1 Structure: - contains 1 IGFBP N-terminal domain - contains 1 thyroglobulin type-1 domain Compartment: secreted Expression: - induced by forskolin & N6,O2'dibutyryl adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate - not induced by 1,9 dideoxyforskolin
