Cirrhosis is characterized by paradoxical growth hormone secretion in response to glucose and insulin infusion. To ascertain whether this abnormality contributes to insulin resistance, euglycemic hyperinsulinemic glucose clamps were performed on six patients with cirrhosis and six normal control sub
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-
Insulin-like growth factor I1 is believed to play an important role in fetal growth and development. The insulin-like growth factor I1 gene expression is tissue specific and developmentally regulated. We have previously shown an enhanced level of insulin-like growth factor I1 messenger RNA and prote
