• A genome-wide association study identifies novel loci associated with circulating IGF-I and IGFBP-3. - Human molecular genetics (2011) · Kaplan RC, Petersen AK, Chen MH, Teumer A, Glazer NL, Döring A, Lam CS, Friedrich N, Newman A, Müller M, Yang Q, Homuth G, Cappola A, Klopp N, Smith H, Ernst F, Psaty BM, Wichmann HE, Sawyer DB, Biffar R, Rotter JI, Gieger C, Sullivan LS, Völzke H, Rice K, Spyroglou A, Kroemer HK, Ida Chen YD, Manolopoulou J, Nauck M, Strickler HD, Goodarzi MO, Reincke M, Pollak MN, Bidlingmaier M, Vasan RS, Wallaschofski H · PubMed 21216879

  Insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) are involved in cell replication, proliferation, differentiation, protein synthesis, carbohydrate homeostasis and bone metabolism. Circulating IGF-I and IGFBP-3 concentrations predict anthropometric traits and risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease. In a genome-wide association study of 10 280 middle-aged and older men and women from four community-based cohort studies, we confirmed a known association of single nucleotide polymorphisms in the IGFBP3 gene region on chromosome 7p12.3 with IGFBP-3 concentrations using a significance threshold of P < 5 × 10(-8) (P = 3.3 × 10(-101)). Furthermore, the same IGFBP3 gene locus (e.g. rs11977526) that was associated with IGFBP-3 concentrations was al
