IGFR1 Inhibitor, PQIP, Blocks Colon Cancer Cell Line

Many scientists are on a quest to stop colon cancer in its tracks. They are specifically gunning for the usual suspects: Pathways that signal cancer cell survival and that disable cancer-inhibiting programmed cell death, apoptosis. Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and their receptors, including IGF1R, lead the pack in triggering these two deadly cancer mechanisms. These…
