Heterogeneity of insulin‐like growth factor binding proteins and relationships between structure and affinity

Abstract: Circulating insulin‐like growth factors (IGFs) are bound to specific, high‐affinity binding proteins (BPs), and form complexes with relative molecular masses of about 150000 (‘large’ complex) and 40000 (‘small’ complex). The large complex appears to be under growth‐hormone control and its proportions vary with those of the IGFs. Molecular heterogeneity among the binding proteins was revealed by polydcrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) of serum in which they were cross‐linked to 125I‐labelled IGF I or II. … Show more

“…Recent evidence, however, suggests that the biologic action of IGF-I is strongly modified by the relative concentrations of its binding proteins in plasma, amniotic fluid, and a variety of tissues (27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32). Thus, a measurement in blood or tissue of the IGF-I concentration after removal of the binding proteins gives only one index of the biologic action of this growth factor.…”

“…Following a 2-h preincubation period, samples (0·08-6·25 mg protein/l) were treated with 4 µl 25 mM DSS in DMSO (final concentration 0·25 mM) for 30 min at room temperature. Samples (25 µl) were prepared for SDS-PAGE by addition of 25 µl sample buffer (5% SDS, 10% glycerol, 0·06 M Tris-HCl pH 6·8, 5% 2-mercaptoethanol, and 0·02% bromophenol blue; final concentrations) and heated at 60 C for 15 min (Hardouin et al 1987 …”
