Differential distribution of insulin-like growth factors and their binding proteins within bone: Relationship to bone mineral density

Abstract: To evaluate the possibility that insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and their binding proteins (BPs) in bone play a role in regulating cortical bone formation in growing animals, we compared changes in IGF and IGF BP levels with changes in bone mineral density (BMD) at three different regions (proximal, middle, and distal) along the rabbit femoral shaft. BMD measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry decreased progressively from proximal to distal regions of the shaft, from 0.449 +/- 0.005 to 0.354 +/- 0.002… Show more

“…In recent, clinical physicians have noted brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), which increases in patients with congestive heart failure [6], especially in those with severe hemodynamic impairment [4,21], and is a strong predictor of prognosis in patients with previous MI [11] and congestive heart failure [8].…”
