The insulin‐like growth factor system and the progression of renal complications of type 2 diabetes
Diabetic Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Aims Chronic kidney disease is associated with dysregulation of the insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) system. Alterations in IGF bioavailability, driven by IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs), may influence the decline in renal function. However, the longitudinal relationship between baseline IGF‐I, IGF‐II, IGFBPs and progression of kidney ...
