Determination of insulin and insulin-like growth factors in the ovarian circulation.

Abstract:

:Recent in vitro studies implicate the ovary as an extra-hepatic source of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) with production regulated by gonadotropins and local steroids. Because previous studies have failed to show any significant variations in IGF levels in peripheral blood during the menstrual cycle, we measured the concentrations of IGF-I, IGF-II, and insulin in ovarian and peripheral venous blood samples obtained simultaneously from nine women undergoing abdominal hysterectomy to obtain more detailed data on the ovarian contribution. A significant decreased ovarian gradient was found for IGF-II but not for IGF-I or insulin. Although there was no significant ovarian vein insulin gradient, insulin levels were higher in follicular than in luteal phase ovarian samples. These data suggest that IGF-II may be locally regulated by the ovary. Both insulin and IGFs may regulate ovarian function in vivo.
