Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin-like growth factor binding protein-1 (IGFBP-1) play a pivotal role in regulating cellular hypoxic response. In this study, we cloned and characterized the genes encoding IGF-1 and IGFBP-1 to improve the current knowledge on their roles in highland Bos grunniens (Yak). We also compared their expression levels in the liver and kidney tissues between yaks and lowland cattle. We obtained full-length 465 bp IGF-1 and 792 bp IGFBP-1, encoding 154 amino acids (AA) IGF-1, and 263 AA IGFBP-1 protein, respectively using reverse transcriptase-polyerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) technology. Analysis of their corresponding amino acid sequences showed a high identity between B. grunniens and lowland mammals. Moreover, the two genes were proved to be widely distributed in the examined tissues through expression pattern analysis. Real-time PCR results revealed that IGF-1 expression was higher in the liver and kidney tissues in B. grunniens than in Bos taurus (p<0.05). The IGFBP-1 gene was expressed at a higher level in the liver (p<0.05) of B. taurus than B. grunniens, but it has a similar expression level in the kidneys of the two species. These results indicated that upregulated IGF-1 and downregulated IGFBP-1 are associated with hypoxia adaptive response in B. grunniens.

The insulin like growth factors(IGFs) are bound to several binding proteins(IGFBPs) that appear to regulate IGF transfort, receptor binding, and its action. The concentrations of these peptides are regulated by quantity and nutritional quality of dietary proteins. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of two diets, which differed in their protein source, Carassius carassius(CC), Carassius carassius hot water extract(CCHE), for 4 weeks. Body weight was significantly increased in the CC group(74.14$\pm$12.00 to 266.31$\pm$36.62g; p<0.01). Likewise, IGF I concentration of CC group(101.76$\pm$15.90 ng/ml) was significantly higher than that of CCHE group(38.50$\pm$ 11.20ng/ml; p<0.05). By western immunoblot analysis, especially IGFBP 1, 2 levels are increased, whereas IGFBP 3 level was de creased in CCHE group. After extraction of browning material from each samples, the extractive was filtered and absorbance at 420nm was measured. The absorbance of CCHE group was significantly higher than that of CC group. These results suggest that IGF I can be employed as an index of protein metabolism, particulary as a simple index in the assessing the status of protein nutrition.

골감소증 환자의 혈청중에 존재하는 IGFBP-5의 존재와 변화를 검토한 결과, 골감소즈 환자에서는 정상 대조군에 비해 IGFBP-5가 감소하였는데 이 변화는 IGFBP-5의 분해효소가 작용하기 때문인 것으로 나타났다. IGFBP-5에 작용하는 단백질분해효소 저해제중 metallo계인 EDTA 및 1,10-phenanthroline과 seriner계인 aprotinin, heparin, heparin cofactor 2(HC2), heparine+HC2가 IGFBP-5에 대해 저해효과가 크므로 metalloprotease이면서 serine protease의 성질을 가지는 효소들이 IGFBP-5에 작용하였다. IGF-I과 IGF-II 그리고 insulin은 효소 활성에 아무런 영향이 없었다. IGFBP-5의 zymography에서 정상인과 골감소증 환제어서 180 kDa 크기의 band가 나타났고, gelatin zymography에서 정상 대조군의 경우 66 kDa과 97 kDa 정도의 band가 확인되었고 골감소증 환자의 경우는 69 kDa의 band가 확인되었다.

Insulin-like growth factor-I(IGF-I)은 성장호르몬의 여러 가지 성정촉진 작용을 매개하는 분열 유발성 폴리펩티드이며, 조직의 수선과 재생, 창상치유 및 골대사와 같은 과정들에서 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있고, 비교적 여러 조직에서 발현되고 있는 IGF-I 유전자의 전사조절에 대한 정확한 분자적 기전과 호르몬 및 대사 상태가 그것을 어떻게 조절하는지 아직 밝혀져 있지 않다. 쥐를 절삭시키므로써 대사 상태를 변조시켰을 때, 간 조직내 IGF-I mRNA의 발현에 미치는 절식의 영향을 살펴보기 위하여 solution hybridizatioon/RNase protection 방법으로 분석 하였다. IGF-I의 exon 1 및 exon 2에 의하여 encode된 tran-scripts 모두가 감소된 결과를 얻었고, 이러한 감소는 전사 수준에서 일어난 것으로 nuclear run-on 분석에 의하여 확인하였다. 또한 절식시킨 쥐에서 IGF-I mRNA의 양을 조절하는 cia-acting elements를 IGF-I 유전자의 5'-flanking 지역과 exon 1과 econ 2에서 밝히고자 절식시킨 쥐의 신선한 간조직에서 핵 추출물을 얻어 IGF-I의 여러 가지 DNA fragments와 반응시켜 DNase I protection 분석을 한 결과, IGF-I 유전자의 주요한 전사 개 시점으로부터 downstream에 있는 sequences가 절식으로 변조시킨 대사상태에서 IGF-I의 발현 조절에 중요하며 이곳에는 전사인자인 C/EBP family의 isoform들을 포함한 간조직에 풍부하게 존재하는 여러 전사인자들이 결합할 것으로 제안하였다.

Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), along with IGF-binding protein and IGF receptor, are well-known regulators in the growth and survival of vertebrates. In this study, we investigated the involvement of IGFs and protein variation during embryonic development of the olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus). Morphological stages were divided into six main developments as blastula, gastrula, cephalization, cranial regionalization, tail lift, and hatch. During embryonic development, protein variation was investigated using sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry. In addition, the mechanism of signaling of IGF-I receptor was examined using immuno-blot analysis. We found marked changes in protein expression at four stages of embryonic development and identified proteins as belonging to the vitellogenin 2 family. As development progresses, expression of IGF-II, phosphotyrosine, and phospho-Akt increased, while expression of growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (GRB2) and one of guanine-nucleotide-binding proteins (Ras) decreased. These results provide basic information on the IGF system in the embryonic development of the olive flounder.

The insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), their receptors, and their binding proteins play key roles in regulating cell proliferation and apoptosis. Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP3, OMIM #146732) is one of the proteins that bind to the IGFs. IGFBP3 is a modulator of IGF bioactivity, and direct growth inhibitor in the extravascular tissue compartment. We identified twenty-two novel single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IGFBP3 gene in Korean cattle (Hanwoo, Bos taurus coreanae) by direct sequencing of full gene including -1,500 bp promoter region. Among the identified SNPs, five common SNPs were screened in 650 Korean cattle; one SNP in promoter (IGFBP3 G-854C), one in 5'UTR region (IGFBP3 G-100A), two in intron 1 (IGFBP3 G+421T, IGFBP3 T+1636A), and one in intron 2 (IGFBP3 C+3863A). The frequencies of each SNP were 0.357 (IGFBP3 G-854C), 0.472 (IGFBP3 G-100A), 0.418 (IGFBP3 G+421T), 0.363 (IGFBP3 T+1636A) and 0.226 (IGFBP3 C+3863A), respectively. Haplotypes and their frequencies were estimated by EM algorithm. Six haplotypes were constructed with five SNPs and linkage disequilibrium coefficients (|D'|) between SNP pairs were also calculated. The information on SNPs and haplotypes in IGFBP3 gene could be useful for genetic studies of this gene.

Context: Insulin-like growth factor peptides play important roles in regulating cell growth, cell differentiation, and apoptosis, and have been demonstrated to promote the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). Objective: To examine the association of insulin-related biomarkers including insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) and C-peptide with CRC risk and assess their relevance in predictive models. Materials and Methods: The odds ratios of colorectal cancer for serum levels of IGF-1, IGFBP-3 and C-peptide were estimated using unconditional logistic regression models in 100 colorectal cancer cases and 100 control subjects. Areas under the receiving curve (AUC) and integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) statistics were used to assess the discriminatory potential of the models. Results: Serum levels of IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 were negatively associated with colorectal cancer risk (OR=0.07, 95%CI: 0.03-0.16, P for trend <.01, OR=0.06, 95%CI: 0.03-0.15, P for trend <.01 respectively) and serum C-peptide was positively associated with risk of colorectal cancer (OR=4.38, 95%CI: 2.13-9.06, P for trend <.01). Compared to the risk model, prediction for the risk of colorectal cancer had substantially improved when all selected biomarkers IGF-1, IGFBP-3 and inverse value of C-peptide were simultaneously included inthe reference model [P for AUC improvement was 0.02 and the combined IDI reached 0.166% (95 % CI; 0.114-0.219)]. Conclusions: The results provide evidence for an association of insulin-related biomarkers with colorectal cancer risk and point to consideration as candidate predictor markers.

이 연구의 목적은 Skeletal maturity indicator (SMI) 및 Middle phalanx of the third finger (MP3)와 혈청 Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) 및 Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3)의 상관 관계를 통해 골격적 성숙도의 예측 지표로 사용될 수 있는지 알아보는 것이다. 2018년 1월부터 2022년 12월까지 아주대학교 치과병원 및 소아청소년과에 내원한 만 7세 이상 17세 이하 환자 205명의 의무기록을 후향적으로 분석하였다. 혈청 IGF-1 농도는 SMI 6 - 8, MP3 - G에서 가장 높았고(p < 0.0001) 혈청 IGFBP-3 농도는 SMI 9 - 10, MP3 - I에서 가장 높았다(p = 0.010, 0.030). SMI, MP3와 혈청 IGF-1 농도 간 비교적 높은 Pearson 상관계수를 나타냈다(r = 0.698, 0.622, p < 0.0001). 혈청 IGF-1는 소아청소년의 골격적 성숙도를 평가하는 보조적 수단으로 활용될 수 있을 것이며 임상적으로는 472 ㎍/L에서 510.63 ㎍/L의 범위를 최대성장기로 고려할 수 있다.
