Quantification of urinary insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and IGF binding protein 3 in healthy volunteers before and after stimulation with recombinant human growth hormone.

Abstract:

:We examined excretion of urinary insulin-like growth factors I and II (IGF-I and IGF-II) and their major binding protein IGFBP-3 in comparison to their respective serum concentration in nine healthy female volunteers (median age 25 years, range 22-27) under baseline conditions and after stimulation with recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH), 4.5 IU twice daily subcutaneously for a period of 3 days. The IGFs were measured in unconcentrated urine by use of recently developed, highly sensitive radioimmunoassays. The IGFBP-3 was measured by a specific radioimmunoassay. The mean (+/- SD) urinary concentrations of IGF-I (0.08 +/- 0.07 micrograms/l), IGF-II (1.02 +/- 0.47 micrograms/l) and IGFBP-3 (19.1 +/- 6.9 micrograms/l) were two to three orders of magnitude lower than in serum. The ratio of IGF-II over IGF-I concentration in urine (13:1) was five times higher than in serum (2.5:1), and the ratio of IGFBP-3 over the sum of IGF-I and IGF-II in urine (17:1) was four times higher than in serum (4:1). Urinary excretion was 63.3 +/- 46.6 ng.m-2.24h-1 for IGF-I, 1002 +/- 598 ng.m-2.24h-1 for IGF-II and 18039 +/- 4983 ng.m-2.24h-1 for IGFBP-3. Using fast protein liquid exclusion chromatography, only immunoreactive IGFBP-3 components of less than 60 kD were detected in urine, with a major peak at 20 kD. Urinary IGFBP-3 excretion correlated with serum IGFBP-3 (r = 0.61, p < 0.01) and the glomerular filtration rate (r = 0.56, p < 0.05) measured by steady-state inulin infusion clearances.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
