“…IGF bioactivity measures the net stimulatory effect of a system and is likely to be a reflection of absolute levels of the IGFs and their relative distribution on the binding proteins. Levels of 'free' IGF-I were not greatly elevated with the dose of rhIGF-I used in this study and it is interesting to note that in normal subjects a dose of 100 µ/kg only produced free levels in the order of 9% (Takano et al 1991).…”

“…Under physiological conditions, the plasma level of IGF-I is almost constant all day long, and the serum IGF-I concentration extracted with acid-ethanol is around 200 ng/ml (Takano et al, 1990a). Less than 5 percent of the total serum IGF-I seems to be an active form freed from its binding protein (Hizuka et al submitted for publication).…”

“…Recombinant human IGF-I infused into hypophysectomized rats and insulin deficient diabetic rats stimulated their growth (Schoenle et al, 1982;Scheiwiller et al, 1986). However, it also exerts metabolic actions that closely resemble those of insulin; IGF-I caused a decrease in plasma glucose and insulin levels in animals and man (Zapf et al, 1986;Guler et al, 1989;Takano et al, 1990a). The results with the glucose clamp technique in rats suggest that the decrease in plasma insulin is derived from the direct effect of IGF-I on insulin secretion from islet B-cells (Jacob et al, 1989).…”

“…In humans, undergoing chronic IGF-I-administration, the urinary sodium and potassium excretions are transiently decreased [81,92], but unchanged after weeks of treatment [81,87,93], thus following the pattern of GH.…”
