  • Growth hormone (GH) is known as one of the main osmoregulators in euryhaline teleosts during seawater (SW) adaptation. Many of the physiological actions of GH are mediated through insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I), and the GH/IGF-I axis is associated with osmoregulation of fish during SW acclimation. However, little information is available on the response of fish IGF-II to hyperosmotic stress. Here we present the first cloned IGF-I and IGF-II cDNAs of marine medaka, Oryzias dancena, and an analysis of the molecular characteristics of the genes. The marine medaka IGF-I cDNA is 1,340 bp long with a 257-bp 5' untranslated region (UTR), a 528 bp 3' UTR, and a 555-bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding a propeptide of 184 amino acid (aa) residues. The full-length marine medaka IGF-II cDNA consists of a 639 bp ORF encoding 212 aa, a 109 bp 5' UTR, and a 416 bp 3' UTR. Homology comparison of the deduced aa sequences with other IGF-Is and IGF-IIs showed that these genes in marine medaka shared high structural homology with orthologs from other teleost as well as mammalian species, suggesting high conservation of IGFs throughout vertebrates. The IGF-I mRNA level increased following transfer of marine medaka from freshwater (FW) to SW, and the expression level was higher than that of the control group, which was maintained in FW. This significantly elevated IGF-I level was maintained throughout the experiment (14 days), suggesting that in marine medaka, IGF-I is deeply involved in the adaptation to abrupt salinity change. In contrast to IGF-I, the increased level of marine medaka IGF-II mRNA was only maintained for a short period, and quickly returned a level similar to that of the control group, suggesting that marine medaka IGF-II might be a gene that responds to acute stress or one that produces a supplemental protein to assist with the osmoregulatory function of IGF-I during an early phase of salinity change.

  • 본 연구에서는 C2C12 근육 세포에서 IGF-I이 세포골격 연결 단백질인 plectin과 MACF1 유전자 발현에 미치는 영향에 대해 알아보았다. 그 결과 IGF-I이 plectin 유전자의 단백질과 mRNA 발현을 증가시켰으며, MACF1 mRNA 발현을 증가시켰음을 알 수 있었다. 이는 운동에 의해 근육에서 분비가 증가하는 IGF-I이 근육 관련 유전자들의 발현을 조절하여 근부피 유지에 영향을 미친다는 기존의 연구 결과들에서 더 나아가 골격근 구조 안정화 및 근수축 기전에 기여하는 plectin과 MACF1 유전자 발현에도 영향을 미친다는 사실을 증명하였다는데 의의가 있다고 사료된다. 향후 근수축 기전에 있어, 운동 형태, 근섬유의 종류에 따른 세포 골격 단백질의 역할 규명 및 조절자에 관한 연구가 더 수행된다면 운동이 골격근의 생리적 변화에 미치는 영향에 대한 추가적 정보를 제공할 수 있을 것이다.

  • The influence of refeeding either protein, carbohydrate or fat on hepatic insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) mRNA level in chicks which had been fasted for 2 days was examined. The hepatic IGF-I mRNA was measured by ribonuclease protection assay. Fasting reduced hepatic IGF-I mRNA levels to less than half of those in the fed control. When chicks were refed either a control, protein or carbohydrate diet, IGF-I mRNA levels significantly increased to those in the fed control until 2 hours of refeeding. Refeeding of fat did not alter hepatic IGF-I mRNA levels. The significant correlation between liver weight and hepatic IGF-I gene expression suggests that when chicks are refed after 2-d fasting, the acute increase in hepatic IGF-I gene expression brought about after refeeding may be partly regulated by the increase in liver protein metabolism.

  • The polymorphism of insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in 13 pig breeds (total n=559) was detected by PCR-Hha I- RFLP, and allele A (151 bp and 28 bp) or allele B (116 bp, 35 bp and 28 bp) were observed. In these pig breeds, it was found that European pig breeds carried high frequencies of allele B, while Chinese native pig breeds carried high frequencies of allele A. Meanwhile the role of porcine IGF-I was investigated in 117 Nanchang White pigs and 360 Large Yorkshire pigs. Eight traits about growth and carcass were recorded for analyzing the associations between IGF-I gene polymorphism and performance quantitative traits. In the Nanchang White pigs, those with AA genotype generally had higher birth weight than those with AB genotype (p<0.05), but all these genotypes had no significant effect on the other traits which had been analyzed. In Large Yorkshire pigs, those with BB genotype had higher 2 months and 6 months body weight than those with AA genotype (p<0.05), and had a thicker hind-back-fat thickness and mid-back-thickness than those with AB and BB genotypes (p<0.05). And those with BB genotype were the thinnest in Large Yorkshire. Furthermore, pigs with AA genotype had a lower lean percentage than those with AB and BB genotypes (p<0.01), and the lean percentage of those with BB genotype was the highest. Based on these results, it is possible to make the IGF-I gene locus into the application of marker-assisted selection programmes.

  • 이 연구의 목적은 Skeletal maturity indicator (SMI) 및 Middle phalanx of the third finger (MP3)와 혈청 Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) 및 Insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3)의 상관 관계를 통해 골격적 성숙도의 예측 지표로 사용될 수 있는지 알아보는 것이다. 2018년 1월부터 2022년 12월까지 아주대학교 치과병원 및 소아청소년과에 내원한 만 7세 이상 17세 이하 환자 205명의 의무기록을 후향적으로 분석하였다. 혈청 IGF-1 농도는 SMI 6 - 8, MP3 - G에서 가장 높았고(p < 0.0001) 혈청 IGFBP-3 농도는 SMI 9 - 10, MP3 - I에서 가장 높았다(p = 0.010, 0.030). SMI, MP3와 혈청 IGF-1 농도 간 비교적 높은 Pearson 상관계수를 나타냈다(r = 0.698, 0.622, p < 0.0001). 혈청 IGF-1는 소아청소년의 골격적 성숙도를 평가하는 보조적 수단으로 활용될 수 있을 것이며 임상적으로는 472 ㎍/L에서 510.63 ㎍/L의 범위를 최대성장기로 고려할 수 있다.

  • The polymorphism of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF I) in 6 chicken breeds (total n=515) was detected by PCR-Pst IRFLP, and allele A (621 bp) or allele B (364 and 257 bp) were observed. In these chicken breeds, it was found that exotic chicken carried high frequencies of allele B, while Chinese native chicken breeds carried high frequencies of allele A. Meanwhile the role of IGF I was investigated in 133 Ningdu Yellow chicken and 162 Wanzhai Yellow chicken. Five growth traits were recorded for analyzing the association between IGFI gene polymorphism and performance. In both the Ningdu and Wanzhai Yellow breeds, body weight at 4 months was significantly higher with BB genotype than with AA genotype (p<0.05). Furthermore, body weight at 2 months in the Wanzhai Yellow breeds was also higher with BB genotype than with AA genotype (p<0.05). There were no differences among the genotypes for the other traits studied. Based on these results, it is necessary to do more studies on IGFI before making the IGFI locus into the application of maker-assisted selection programms.

  • Purpose: Tumor cell growth and sensitivity to chemotherapy depend on many factors, among which insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) may play important roles. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the levels of insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) in primary tumors and ascites as predictors of response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in ovarian cancer (OC) patients. Materials and Methods: Tumor tissue samples and ascitic fluid were obtained from 59 patients with advanced OC. The levels of IGF-I, IGF-II, IGFBP-3, IGFBP-4 and PAPP-A were determined using ELISA kits. Taking into account the data on expression of these IGF-related proteins and outcome, logistic regression was performed to identify predictors of response to neoajuvant chemotherapy. Results: Human ovarian tumors expressed IGFs, IGFBP-3, IGFBP-4 and PAPP-A and these proteins were also present in ascites fluid and associated with its volume. IGFs and IGFBPs in ascites and soluble PAPP-A might play a key role in ovarian cancer progression. However, levels of proteins of the IGF system in tumors were not significant predictors of objective clinical response (oCR). Univariate analysis showed that the level of IGF-I in ascites was the only independent predictor for oCR. Conclusion: The level of IGF-I in ascites was shown to be an independent predictor of objective clinical response to chemotherapy for OC patients treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and debulking surgery.

  • 선행연구에서 라이코펜이 HT-29세포의 증식을 억제하는 것을 관찰하였기 때문에 본 연구는 그 기전을 연구하기 위하여 수행되 었다. 라이코펜이 HT-29 세포의 사멸을 유도하는지 조사하기 위해서 여러 농도의 라이코펜이 포함된 배지에서 세포를 4일 동안 배양하였다. 라이코펜 농도의 증가에 따라 사멸되는 세포에서 나타나는 특징의 하나인 DNA fragmentation이 증가하는 것을 관찰하였다. Western blot을 수행하여 얻은 결과에 의하면 라이코펜이 IGF-IR, IRS-1, PI3K, Akt와 같은 IGF-IR pathway에 속하는 단백질의 수준을 감소시켰다. IGF-IR의 인산화를 유도하기 위해서 라이코펜이 포함된 배지에서 세포를 배양하고 IGF-I을 첨가하여 0, 5, 10, 60분간 배양한 다음 IGF-IR antibody를 이용하여 immunoprecipitation을 수행하였다. 라이코펜은 IGF-I에 의한 IGF-IR, IRS-1의 인산화와 IGF-IR와 PI3K의 결합을 감소하고 인산화된 Akt를 감소시켰다. 이와 같은 IGF-IR signaling의 억제는 이 대장암세포에 존재하는 IGF-II의 autocrine loop을 억제하는 원인이 될 수 있어, 라이코펜의 암세포증식을 억제하는 기전 중의 하나가 될 수 있다. 라이코펜은 토마토와 그 가공품에 많이 존재하는 물질로 자연적인 식사를 통해 많이 섭취할 수 있는 물질이다. 라이코펜의 항암 기전을 밝혀냄으로써 미래 암예방과 치료를 위한 중요한 기능성 영양소를 생산할 수 있는 기초를 마련해줄 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

  • Insulin-like growth factor-I(IGF-I)은 70개의 아미노산으로 이루어진 polypeptides로서 pronsulin과 구조적으로 유사하다(Froesch and Zapf, 1985). IGF-I은 척추동물에서 성장호르몬의 매개로 생성되어 동물의 성장 발달에 중요한 역할을 하고 있으며 세포의 성장, 분화, 대사에 다양한 효과를 보여주고 있다(Cohich and Clemmons, 1993; Baxter, 1993). 또한 체성장을 가속화시키고 in vivo에서는 단백질의 합성을 촉진시킨다(Rotwein et al., 1987). (중략)

  • 본 연구는 돼지난자의 체외성숙동안 insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I)과 난구세포의 영향을 검토하기 위하여 실시하였다. 미성숙난자를 0(60%), 1(61%), 5(62%) 및 l0ng/$m\ell$(72%)의 서로 다른 IGF-I의 농도로 첨가하여 배양했을 때 체외성숙율은 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았다. 또한 10ng/$m\ell$의 IGF-I이 첨가된 배양액내에서 난자를 배양한 경우, 난구세포부착시 (68%) 제거 (52%)된 난자에 비해 높은성숙율을 나타냈지만 유의적인 차이는 인정되지 않았다. 그러나 IGF-I이 첨가되지 않은 경우에는 난구세포 부착 (63%) 난자가 제거 (32%)된 난자에 비해 유의적 (P<0.05)으로 높은 성숙율을 나타냈으며, IGF-I를 성숙 배양기간중 전반기 24시간 또는 후반기 24시간 동안만 첨가했을 때의 난구세포 부착시 (61과 49%) 제거된 (45 와 49%) 난자에 비해 높은 성숙융올 나타냈다. 한편, IGF-I의 존재 여부에 관계없이 FCS와 돼지난포액 (PFF)이 무첨가된 배양액에서 48시간동안 또는 배양전반기 24시간동안 난구세포를 제거한 경우 (16과 18%)로 난구세포 부착시 (46과 63%)에 비해 유의적 (P<0.01)으로 낮은 성숙율을 나타냈다. 이와 같은 결과는 난구세포가 IGF-I의 존재 유무에 관계없이 난자의 체외성숙에 필수적이며, FCS와 PFF 첨가시 난구세포가 제거된 난자의 체외성숙을 촉진하는 것으로 밝혀졌다.
