IGF-I treatment in adults with type 1 diabetes: effects on glucose and protein metabolism in the fasting state and during a hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic amino acid clamp.

Abstract: Type 1 diabetes is associated with abnormalities of the growth hormone (GH)-IGF-I axis. Such abnormalities include decreased circulating levels of IGF-I. We studied the effects of IGF-I therapy (40 µg · kg -1 · day -1 ) on protein and glucose metabolism in adults with type 1 diabetes in a randomized placebo-controlled trial. A total of 12 subjects participated, and each subject was studied at baseline and after 7 days of treatment, both in the fasting state and during a hyperinsulinemiceuglycemic amino acid cl… Show more

“…The mechanism of insulin resistance in subjects with NASH may be related to levels of insulin-like growth factor, an independent affector of insulin sensitivity. [42][43][44][45] Free insulin-like growth factor levels were lower in patients with NASH than in either obese or lean controls in these experiments, although the differences did not reach statistical significance. The higher levels of nonessential fatty acids, ␤-hydroxybutyrate, and glycerol that were observed in this study in patients with NASH when compared with lean controls, despite higher circulating insulin levels, also point to insulin resistance.…”

“…Recombinant IGF-I has been produced on a large scale and has been in clinical trials for a variety of pathological conditions including growth failure, 34 type I 35 and type II diabetes. 36 Although there are many studies using IGF-I as a therapeutic agent to treat dystrophic muscle wasting in an animal model, the mechanism by which IGF-I protects cells from oxidative stress is still not clear.…”

“…Somente a administração direta da insulina no sistema-porta pode restaurar essas anormalidades. Entretanto, observações que a correção dos níveis de IGF-1 com IGF-1 humano recombinante (rhIGF-1) diminui o GH, melhora a sensibilidade à insulina e reduz a necessidade insulínica para a euglicemia, estimularam o interesse no potencial do rhIGF-1 como terapia adjuvante à insulina nos indivíduos DM1 (40).…”
