IGF-I does not affect the net increase in GH release in response to arginine.
Arginine stimulates growth hormone (GH) secretion, possibly by inhibiting hypothalamic somatostatin (SS) release. Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) inhibits GH secretion via effects at the pituitary and/or hypothalamus. We hypothesized that if the dominant action of IGF-I is to suppress GH release at the level of the pituitary, then the arginine-induced net increase in GH concentration would...
متن کاملThe use of urinary Insulin-like Growth Factor-I (IGF-I) for determining skeletal age of participants
Introduction: Biochemical markers play an important role in the growth and repair of bone and can be evaluated in different biological fluids. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the level of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in urine as a puberty index and to compare it with cervical vertebral maturational stages (CVMSs) in lateral cephalometry. Materials&Methods: In this cros...
متن کاملStimulation of tumor growth by recombinant human insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) is dependent on the dose and the level of IGF-I receptor expression.
The insulin-like growth factors (IGF) I and II regulate metabolism, mitogenesis, differentiation, and apoptosis. The therapeutic uses of IGF-I have been discussed extensively; however, excessive activity of the IGF ligands and IGF-I receptor has been suggested as a factor in tumorigenesis. The inhibition of apoptosis by IGF-I is believed to be particularly important for the stimulation of tumor...
متن کاملNitric Oxide–dependent Actions of IGF-I on Human Skeletal Muscle Metabolism
In human skeletal muscle, insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) exerts both growth hormone–like (increase in protein synthesis) and insulin-like (decrease in protein degradation and increase in glucose uptake) actions and augments forearm blood flow twoto threefold. This study was designed to address whether ( a ) the increase in blood flow due to IGF-I could be blocked by an inhibitor of nitric...
متن کاملIncreasing of serum nitric oxide metabolites in chicken Eimeria infection
In order to determine the involvement of nitric oxide in the pathogenesis of coccidiosis induced by Eimeria, 30 chickens were challenged with mixed sporulated oocysts of four species of Eimeria (E. acervulina, E. maxima, E. necatrix, and E. tenella) at 26 days of age. There was an increasing of oocyst shedding in the infected birds at 6, 10 and 14 days post-infection. Histopathological examinat...
