Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) regulates the interaction between IGFs and their receptors, and IGFs have been shown to influence the in vitro growth of breast cancer cells. Rocha et al. report here that IGFBP-3 may be associated with poor prognostic features in breast cancer, implying that it may be involved in the regulation of breast cancer cell growth.
