Abstract

Insulin-like growth factor-I is the mediator of many of the actions of GH and is a potent metabolic regulator. Recombinant IGF-I (rhIGF-I) is of potential value in the treatment of syndromes associated with either GH or insulin resistance. This study was designed to assess the effects of subcutaneous (s.c.) rhIGF-I on anterior pituitary function.
