The IGF–PAPP-A–Stanniocalcin Axis in Serum and Ascites Associates with Prognosis in Patients with Ovarian Cancer
Pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and PAPP-A2 modulate insulin-like growth factor (IGF) action and are inhibited by the stanniocalcins (STC1 and STC2). We previously demonstrated increased PAPP-A and IGF activity in ascites from women with ovarian carcinomas. In this prospective, longit...
