Gene: IGF1
Official Full Name: insulin like growth factor 1provided by HGNC
Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is similar to insulin in function and structure and is a member of a family of proteins involved in mediating growth and development. The encoded protein is processed from a precursor, bound by a specific receptor, and secreted. Defects in this gene are a cause of insulin-like growth factor I deficiency. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that may undergo similar processing to generate mature protein. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

IGF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines are genetically engineered cell lines designed to specifically disrupt the insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) gene, resulting in the attenuation of IGF1 signaling pathways. These cell lines are essential tools for studying the complex roles of IGF1 in cellular processes such as growth, proliferation, and metabolism. By providing a controlled environment devoid of IGF1 gene influence, researchers can explore the downstream effects of IGF1 signaling on cellular behavior, gene expression, and interaction with other signaling pathways.
The primary mechanism of action in these knockout cell lines involves a targeted approach utilizing CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technology. This allows for precise alterations in the DNA sequence of the IGF1 gene, leading to the complete or partial loss of its function. The resulting phenotypic and molecular differences enable researchers to investigate the physiological and pathological implications of IGF1 dysregulation in areas such as cancer biology, diabetes, and age-related diseases.
The scientific importance of IGF1 Gene Knockout Cell Lines stems not only from their applications in basic research but also from their potential in translational studies. Clinically, understanding IGF1's role can shed light on therapies targeting metabolic disorders and improve cancer treatment strategies. By studying the effects of IGF1 loss, researchers can identify novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets, contributing to advancements in personalized medicine.
