Description
Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 4, also known as IGFBP4, is a member of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) family that are cysteine-rich proteins that act as a carrier protein. The protein binds both insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) I and II and circulates in the plasma in both glycosylated and non-glycosylated forms. Binding of this protein prolongs the half-life of the IGFs and alters their interaction with cell surface receptors. IGFBP-4 is a unique protein and it consistently inhibits several cancer cells in vivo and in vitro. The protein itself does not prevent the formation of cancer.1 However it may reduce the growth of cancer and act as an apoptotic factor.
