Özet

Background/aim: Insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R) is a pivotal receptor tyrosine kinase involved in the cell cycle and malignant tumor transformation. It is differentially expressed in various types of tumors. We aimed to determine the expression of IGF-1R in different pediatric tumors and to shed light on possible new indications of anti-IGF-1R treatment approaches.
