Homozygous receptors for insulin and not IGF-1 accelerate intimal hyperplasia in insulin resistance and diabetes

Both insulin and IGF-1 signaling have been implicated in arterial intimal hyperplasia. Here the authors dissect the relative contributions of insulin and IGF-1 receptors, showing that homodimers of insulin receptors, but not IGF-1 receptor, induce proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells.
