Growth and Somatomedins

open access: yes, 1983
Publisher Summary This chapter presents a personal approach to the somatomedins, from their beginnings as operationally defined activities to their emergence, in the last decade, as structural entities. The existence of other growth factors isolated from serum and tissue such as epidermal growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor are also ...

Nutrition and somatomedin—XII. Fractionation of somatomedins and somatomedin inhibitors in normal and diabetic rats

International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 1985
Bioassayable somatomedins and somatomedin inhibitors were examined after chromatographic separation, using serum from normal rats (enriched in somatomedins) and diabetic rats (enriched in somatomedin inhibitors). At neutral pH, gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300 revealed somatomedins at mol.

Nutrition and somatomedin. XIV. Altered levels of somatomedins and somatomedin inhibitors in rats with streptozotocin-induced diabetes

Metabolism: Clinical and Experimental, 1985
Diabetes is associated with poor growth despite elevated levels of growth hormone (GH). Skeletal GH effects are mediated by somatomedins; in diabetes, somatomedins measured by radioassay are normal, yet somatomedin activity measured by bioassay is low. Since bioassay measurements reflect the presence of both somatomedins and somatomedin inhibitors, we ...

Somatomedin

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1975
Somatomedin is a peptide component of serum which has been postulated to mediate the action of growth hormone on skeletal tissue. Direct effects on cartilage include stimulation of the synthesis of mucopolysacharide, protein, and nucleic acids. Insulin-like effects on non-skeletal tissues and cells have been described, and a relationship to NSILA-S and

Somatomedins and Steroids

Hormone Research, 2008
Somatomedin levels measured by radioreceptor assay, competitive protein-binding assay or radioimmunoassay are normal in hypercortisolism; the decrease of somatomedin activity consistently found in this condition is due to an increase in circulating somatomedin inhibitors resulting in an inhibition of somatomedin action. Progestagens could possibly have

Glucocorticoid Effects on Somatomedins and Somatomedin Inhibitors*

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1985
Glucocorticoid excess may be associated with poor growth despite normal levels of GH and adequate nutrition. Steroid-induced growth failure could be mediated by defective generation and/or action of somatomedins. To probe potential mechanisms, we examined the effect of corticosteroid administration on net somatomedin activity, immunoreactive ...
