Changes of Insulin-like Growth factor-I, II and IGF-Binding Protein-3 on Fasting and Postprandial state in Diabetes

당뇨환자의 식사 전후에 따른 혈중 Insulin-like growth factor(IGF-I), IGF-II 및 Insulin-like growth factor binding proteins(IGFBP)-3의 변화

IGFs and IGFBPs have an important role in controlling glucose homeostasis. This study was conducted to investigate the changes of insulin-like growth factor(IGF)-I. IGF-II and IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) on fasting and postprandial state in Korean diabetes, Twenty eight healthy subjects and fifty seven diabetic patients participated in this study. The healthy subjects were not knowingly suffered from any disease and were not receiving any medical treatment, and diabetic subjects were undergo medical treatment, continuously. Weight and height were measured and body mass index (BMI) was calculated as weight (kg) divided by the square of height (m2). Blood pressure was measured. Plasma lipid profiles were analyzed by enzymatic methods, plasma Insulin and glucose levels were measured in fasting and postprandial state, respectively. The levels of serum IGFs and IGFBP-3 were measured by radioimmunoassay (RIA). The levels of glucose and insulin were significantly higher in diabetes than normal subjects on fasting as well as postprandial state (p<0.0l). The levels of IGF-I was significantly lower in diabetes than normal subjects, however in postprandial state, there was no significant difference between diabetes and control subjects, The levels of IGF-II were significantly lower in diabetes than control subjects both fasting and postpradial state, The level of IGFBP-3 were not significantly different between diabetes and normal subjects. Fasting IGF-I, IGF-II and IGFBP-3 levels were positively correlated with those levels on postprandial state, fasting IGe levels of IGF-I levels were positively correlated with fasting insulin levels, and postprandial IGF-I levels were positively correlated with fasting glucose, postprandial insulin and postprandial insulin levels, plasma triglyceride levels were correlated with plasma triglyceride levels. The IGFBP-3 levels were not correlated with IGF components, glucose, insulin and plasma lipids, These results demonstrate that in diabetes, the components IGF-I/IGFBPs system were significantly correlated with plsma glucose and insulin levels both fasting and postprandial state.
