Dietary Restriction of Single Essential Amino Acids Reduces Plasma Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I (IGF-I) but Does Not Affect Plasma IGF-Binding Protein-1 in Rats

Abstract: The effects of dietary restriction of a single essential amino acid (EAA) on insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) and IGF-binding protein (IGFBP)-1 were investigated in rats. Rats were fed experimental diets containing amino acid (AA) mixtures in which the concentrations of all EAA were at levels recommended by the National Research Council (control), in which a single EAA was restricted to 20% of that of the control diets (Leu(-), Lys(-), Met(-) or Thr(-)), or in which the diet was devoid of amino acids (AA(-… Show more

“…That the dietary lysine deficiency decreased the plasma IGF-1 concentration in the finishing pigs of this study supports the research conducted by Takenaka et al [36] and Katsumata et al [18], who showed that the plasma IGF-1 concentration was reduced when young rats (6 weeks of age) and nursery pigs were fed the diets lower in lysine. The previous studies on growing pigs, however, did not show that dietary lysine levels influence the plasma concentration of IGF-1 [14,17].…”

“…However, fasting still poses a challenge to patients, which calls for an urgent need of substitution diets or targeted drugs that can mimic fasting. Experimental evidence from aging research suggests that diets with specific deficiencies, especially essential amino acids, may provide increased stress resistance and lifespan (Richie et al, 1994;Takenaka et al, 2000;Harper et al, 2006). Although, it is unlikely that the vast effects caused by fasting can be obtained with specific deficiencies, it will be important to determine whether limitations of specific nutrients will be sufficient to promote some of the effects of fasting.…”

“…Insulin also decreases hepatic production of IGF binding proteins (IGFBP), notably IGFBP-1, a key antagonist of IGF-1 action (Ritvos et al, 1988;Lewitt et al, 1991). In Wistar rats, short-term dietary restriction of single essential amino acids reduces plasma IGF-1 but does not increase IGFBP-1 levels except in those animals that are methionine restricted or feeding on diets devoid of amino acids (Tanenaka et al, 2000). Thus, it is plausible in MR that the observed lower insulin levels contributed to the reduced IGF-1 levels and that increased IGFBP-1 might have been a consequence of this action.…”
