The acute metabolic actions of insulin-like growth factor I were studied in anaesthetized adult rats and its potency was compared to that of insulin. Following an i.v. bolus injection of insulin-like growth factor I a dose-dependent decrease of blood glucose and serum non-esterified fatty acid conce
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-
## Republic of Germany \* Insulinlike growth factor-I (IGF-I) is of critical importance in the regulation of tissue growth and cellular differentiation (1, 2). In addition to its growthpromoting effects, a rapid insulin-like metabolic activity (e.g., hypoglycemia after intravenous injection) has b
