Growth Hormone and Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1

2016
Human growth hormone (GH) was first isolated from the human pituitary gland in 1945 and found to promote the growth of children with hypopituitarism. Since the formation of the World Anti-Doping Association, human GH has appeared on the list of forbidden substances.

Insulin-like growth factor-1 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 in early human pregnancy

Early Human Development, 1992
Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) were measured in amniotic fluid, extraembryonic coelomic fluid and maternal serum from 23 women with apparently normal first trimester pregnancies prior to termination. The levels of IGF-1 and IGFBP-1 were significantly higher in coelomic fluid than amniotic

Vertex balding, plasma insulin-like growth factor 1, and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2000
A recent report suggested that men with vertex balding have higher levels of plasma insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). The association of its major carrier protein, insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3), with male pattern hair loss has not been examined.We evaluated the relations of plasma concentrations of IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 with ...

Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Expression in Thyroid Tumors

Applied Immunohistochemistry & Molecular Morphology, 2000
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) likely is involved in thyrocyte proliferation via autocrine mechanisms, but limited data are available on its in vivo expression in thyroid neoplasms. This prompted us to explore IGF-1 expression at the protein and mRNA levels and IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1rec) immunoreactivity in normal and neoplastic thyroids (50 ...

Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 Deficiency

2019
Since insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) measurement has become widely known to reflect cumulative growth hormone (GH) secretion, it is not surprising for clinicians to be tempted to use IGF-1 levels to not only screen for GH excess but for GH deficiency also (Le Roith D.
