Evidence supporting dual, IGF-I-independent and IGF-I-dependent, roles for GH in promoting longitudinal bone growth.
The possibility that growth hormone (GH) has effects on long bone growth independent of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) has long been debated. If this is true, then long bone growth should be more profoundly affected by the absence of GH (since both GH and GH-stimulated IGF-I effects are absent) than by the absence of IGF-I alone (since GH is still present and actually elevated). To test t...
متن کاملInvestigation on the Levels of IGF-I Receptor and IGF-I Binding Protein I in the Brain of Insulin Resistant Rats
Abstract Introduction: There is limited knowledge available on the metabolism of glucose in the brain, an insulin insensitive organ. Insulin receptors hybridize with insulin like growth factor receptor (IGF-I) to transduce the signals in different areas of the brain. In this article we aimed at investigating whether the expression of IGF-I receptor and IGF-I binding proteins (IGFBP1) is change...
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 کاملPre-pubertal OVX increases IGF-I expression and bone accretion in C57BL/6J mice Short Title: Estrogen effects on IGF-I and bone during puberty
It is generally well accepted that the pubertal surge in estrogen is responsible for the rapid bone accretion that occurs during puberty and that this effect is mediated by an estrogen-induced increase in GH/IGF action. To test the cause and effect relationship between estrogen and GH/IGF, we evaluated the consequence of ovariectomy (OVX) in prepubertal mice (C57BL/6J mice at 3 weeks of age) on...
