Eighty breast cancer specimens were examined for insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) expression by ligand blotting. Five distinct IGFBP species were found: a doublet at 48 and 44 kDa was IGFBP-3, the 34-kDa band was IGFBP-2, and a band at 24 kDa was IGFBP-4. A 32-kDa band was compatible with the migration position reported for IGFBP-5. IGFBP-3 was inversely correlated with ER expression, while IGFBP-4 was positively correlated with both ER and PgR. IGFBP-4 was also inversely correlated with S-phase fraction. Thus, IGFBP expression correlates with other parameters of breast cancer biology and may play a role in regulating tumor growth.
