Multiple factors contribute to the growth retardation which is a characteristic feature of uncontrolled diabetes. In this report we have examined the effects of streptozotocin-induced (STZ) diabetes on expression of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-
Receptor-mediated internalization and degradation of insulin-like growth factors, IGF-I and IGF-11, were studied in primary cultures of neonatal rat astrocytes. Surface-bound IGF-I1 was rapidly internal-ize& and 80% of cell-associated radioactivity was located intracellularly after 30 min. IGF-I was
