Serum levels of insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor-I binding protein-3: quality control for studies of stored serum.
The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis, particularly IGF-I and IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3), has been the subject of much attention because of its role in juvenile growth and their association with cancers at several sites. However, epidemiologic studies of IGF-I and IGFBP-3 have had mixed results and several authors have speculated that quality control (QC), sample storage history, and o...

متن کاملMaternal serum insulin-like growth factor-I.
The recent report on maternal insulin-like growth factor-I is very interesting. Yang et al. concluded that “maternal serum IGF-I is significantly related to GA, maternal BW, and BMI during pregnancy.” In fact, there are some previous reports on this issue. Pathmaperuma et al. made a completely different observation. In their report, it was reported that serum IGF-I “did not correlate with newbo...
متن کاملSerum levels of insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 in children with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.
Pubertal development has recently been evaluated from the standpoint of changes in insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) levels in healthy children. We studied puberty related changes in serum IGF-I and IGFBP-3 levels in 24 patients (11 prepubertal) with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and 26 healthy subjects (14 prepubertal). Serum IGF-I and IGFBP-3 ...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor I and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 5 in Crohn's disease.
Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and its binding protein IGF binding protein 5 (IGFBP-5) were highly expressed in inflamed and fibrotic intestine in experimental Crohn's disease. IGF-I induced proliferation and increased collagen synthesis by smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts/myofibroblasts in vitro. Here we studied IGF-I and IGFBP-5 in Crohn's disease tissue. Tissue was collected from pati...
