Distribution and Levels of Insulin-like Growth Factor 2 Receptor Across Mouse Brain Cell Types

These results suggest that IGF-2R-mediated functions in the brain vary across different cell types and subcellular compartments, with the most active roles in specific subpopulations of neurons, mural cells, ependymal cells, meningeal cells, and cells of the oligodendrocyte lineage. This study advances our understanding of IGF-2R's distribution in the brain, which is essential for formulating new hypotheses about its functions and therapeutic targeting.
