Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), also called somatomedin C, is a hormone similar in molecular structure to insulin which plays an important role in childhood growth, and has anabolic effects in adults. [5] In the 1950s IGF-1 was called "sulfation factor" because it stimulated sulfation of cartilage in vitro, [6] and in the 1970s due to its effects it was termed "nonsuppressible insulin-like activity" (NSILA). [7]

IGF-1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IGF1 gene. [8] [9] IGF-1 consists of 70 amino acids in a single chain with three intramolecular disulfide bridges. IGF-1 has a molecular weight of 7,649 daltons. [10] In dogs, an ancient mutation in IGF1 is the primary cause of the toy phenotype. [11]

IGF-1 is produced primarily by the liver. Production is stimulated by growth hormone (GH). Most of IGF-1 is bound to one of 6 binding proteins (IGF-BP). IGFBP-1 is regulated by insulin. IGF-1 is produced throughout life; the highest rates of IGF-1 production occur during the pubertal growth spurt. [12] The lowest levels occur in infancy and old age. [13] [14]

Low IGF-1 levels are associated with cardiovascular disease, while high GF-1 levels are associated with cancer. Mid-range IGF-1 levels are associated with the lowest mortality.

A synthetic analog of IGF-1, mecasermin, is used for the treatment of growth failure in children with severe IGF-1 deficiency. [15] Cyclic glycine-proline (cGP) is a metabolite of hormone insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). It has a cyclic structure, lipophilic nature, and is enzymatically stable which makes it a more favourable candidate for manipulating the binding-release process between IGF-1 and its binding protein, thereby normalising IGF-1 function. [16]

Synthesis and circulation

The polypeptide hormone IGF-1 is synthesized primarily in the liver upon stimulation by growth hormone (GH). It is a key mediator of anabolic activities in numerous tissues and cells, such as growth hormone-stimulated growth, metabolism and protein translation. [17] Due to its participation in the GH-IGF-1 axis it contributes among other things to the maintenance of muscle strength, muscle mass, development of the skeleton and is a key factor in brain, eye and lung development during fetal development. [18]

A deficiency of IGF-1 is associated with the increased risks of insulin resistance, glucose intolerance, diabetes type 2, as well as cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. [17] [19] Studies have shown the importance of the GH-IGF-1 axis in directing development and growth, where mice with a IGF-1 deficiency had a reduced body- and tissue mass. Mice with an excessive expression of IGF-1 had an increased mass. [19]

The levels of IGF-1 in the body vary throughout life, depending on age, where peaks of the hormone is generally observed during puberty and the postnatal period. After puberty, when entering the third decade of life, there is a rapid decrease in IGF-1 levels due to the actions of GH. Between the third and eight decade of life, the IGF-1 levels decrease gradually, but unrelated to functional decline. [18] However, protein intake is proven to increase IGF-1 levels. [20]

Mechanism of action

IGF-1 is a primary mediator of the effects of growth hormone (GH). Growth hormone is made in the anterior pituitary gland, released into the bloodstream, and then stimulates the liver to produce IGF-1. IGF-1 then stimulates systemic body growth, and has growth-promoting effects on almost every cell in the body, especially skeletal muscle, cartilage, bone, liver, kidney, nerve, skin, hematopoietic, and lung cells. In addition to the insulin-like effects[ further explanation needed ], IGF-1 can also regulate cellular DNA synthesis. [21]

IGF-1 binds to at least two cell surface receptor tyrosine kinases: the IGF-1 receptor (IGF1R), and the insulin receptor. Its primary action is mediated by binding to its specific receptor, IGF1R, which is present on the surface of many cell types in many tissues[ further explanation needed ]. Binding to the IGF1R initiates intracellular signaling. IGF-1 is one of the most potent natural activators of the Akt signaling pathway, a stimulator of cell growth and proliferation, and a potent inhibitor of programmed cell death. [22] [23] The IGF-1 receptor and insulin receptor are two closely related members of a transmembrane tetrameric tyrosine kinase receptor family. They control vital brain functions, such as survival, growth, energy metabolism, longevity, neuroprotection and neuroregeneration. [24]

Metabolic effects

As a major growth factor, IGF-1 is responsible for stimulating growth of all cell types, and causing significant metabolic effects. [25] One important metabolic effect of IGF-1 is signaling cells that sufficient nutrients are available for them to undergo hypertrophy and cell division. [26] Its effects also include inhibiting cell apoptosis and increasing the production of cellular proteins. [26] IGF-1 receptors are ubiquitous, which allows for metabolic changes caused by IGF-1 to occur in all cell types. [25] IGF-1's metabolic effects are far-reaching and can coordinate protein, carbohydrate, and fat metabolism in a variety of different cell types. [25] The regulation of IGF-1's metabolic effects on target tissues is also coordinated with other hormones such as growth hormone and insulin. [27]

The IGF system

IGF-1 is part of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system. [28] This system consists of three ligands (insulin, IGF-1 and IGF-2), two tyrosine kinase receptors (insulin receptor and IGF-1R receptor) and six ligand binding proteins (IGFBP 1–6). [28] Together they play an essential role in proliferation, survival, regulation of cell growth and affect almost every organ system in the body. [29]

Similarly to IGF-1, IGF-2 is mainly produced in the liver and after it is released into circulation, it stimulates growth and cell proliferation. IGF-2 is thought to be a fetal growth factor, as it is essential for a normal embryonic development and is highly expressed in embryonic and neonatal tissues. [30]

Variants

A splice variant of IGF-1 sharing an identical mature region, but with a different E domain is known as mechano-growth factor (MGF). [31]

Disorders

Laron syndrome

Patients with severe primary insulin-like growth factor-1 deficiency (IGFD), called Laron syndrome (LS) or Laron dwarfism, may be treated with Mecasermin (brand name Increlex). This is a synthetic analog of IGF-1 which is approved for the treatment of growth failure. [32]

The FDA has grouped these diseases[ further explanation needed ] into a disorder called severe primary IGF deficiency. Patients with severe primary IGFD typically present with normal to high GH levels, height below 3 standard deviations (SD), and IGF-1 levels below 3 SD. [33] Severe primary IGFD includes patients with mutations in the GH receptor, post-receptor mutations or IGF mutations. As a result, these patients do not respond to GH treatment. [34]

People with Laron syndrome have very low rates of both cancer and diabetes. [35]

Acromegaly

Acromegaly is a syndrome caused by the anterior pituitary gland producing excess growth hormone (GH). [36] A number of disorders may increase the pituitary's GH output, although most commonly it involves a tumor called pituitary adenoma, derived from a distinct type of cell (somatotrophs). It leads to anatomical changes and metabolic dysfunction caused by elevated GH and IGF-1 levels. [37]

High level of IGF-1 in acromegaly is related to an increased risk of some cancers, particularly colon cancer and thyroid cancer. [38]

Use as a diagnostic test

IGF-1 levels can be analyzed and used by physicians as a screening test for growth hormone deficiency (GHD), [39] acromegaly and gigantism. [33] However, IGF-1 has been shown to be a bad diagnostic screening test for growth hormone deficiency. [40] [41]

The ratio of IGF-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 has shown to be a useful diagnostic test for GHD. [42] [43]

Causes of elevated IGF-1 levels

Health effects

Mortality

Both high and low levels of IGF‐1 increase mortality risk, with the mid‐range (120–160 ng/ml) being associated with the lowest mortality. [49]

Cancer

Several studies have shown associations between high levels of IGF-1 and an increased risk of tumor development. High levels of IGF-1 are associated with a 65% risk increase in the risk of premenopausal breast cancer, [50] and a 49% increase in the risk of prostate cancer. [50] One study found that with an increase in serum IGF-1 levels of 100 ng/ml, there is a corresponding 69% increase in the risk of colorectal cancer. [51] [49] Another study found that high levels of IGF-1 are associated with a 106% increase in the risk of lung cancer. [52] [49]

Dairy consumption

It has been suggested that consumption of IGF-1 in dairy products could increase cancer risk, particularly prostate cancer. [53] [54] However, a 2018 review by the Committee on Carcinogenicity of Chemicals in Food, Consumer Products and the Environment (COC) concluded that there is "insufficient evidence to draw any firm conclusions as to whether exposure to dietary IGF-1 is associated with an increased incidence of cancer in consumers". [54] Certain dairy processes such as fermentation are known to significantly decrease IGF-1 concentrations. [55]

Cardiovascular disease

Increased IGF-1 levels are associated with a 16% lower risk of cardiovascular disease and a 28% reduction of cardiovascular events. [56]

Diabetes

Low IGF-1 levels are shown to increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. [57] On the other hand, a high IGF-1 bioavailability in people with diabetes may delay or prevent diabetes-associated complications, as it improves impaired small blood vessel function. [58]

Clinical trials

Mecasermin

Mecasermin is a complex consisting of recombinant human IGF-1 and recombinant human IGF-binding protein-3. [59] The complex is used for the long-term treatment in children with growth failure, where they suffer from severe IGF-1 deficiency unresponsive to GH. Children with growth failure were given 0,12 mg/kg subcutaneous mecasermin two times a day over a period with a mean duration of 4,4 years (range: 0,04-12,5 years). During the first year of treatment the height velocity of the children increased from a mean of 2,8 cm/year at baseline to a mean of 8,0 cm/year. The mean growth velocities continued to remain above baseline for up to 8 years. [60]

Mecasermin therapy is also shown to be beneficial with other conditions including diabetes mellitus and anorexia nervosa. [60]

rhIGF-1

Several companies have evaluated administering recombinant human IGF-1 (rhIGF-1) in clinical trials for type 1 diabetes. These patients, despite having increased GH secretion, have low levels of circulating IGF-1 and therefore may benefit from rhIGF-1 therapy. [61] Results shows that a rhIGF-1 therapy two times a day in adults with type 1 diabetes increased the circulating IGF-1. This was with a reciprocal decrease in IGF-2 and an elevation of IGFBP-2. [61]

The insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) receptor is a protein found on the surface of human cells. It is a transmembrane receptor that is activated by a hormone called insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and by a related hormone called IGF-2. It belongs to the large class of tyrosine kinase receptors. This receptor mediates the effects of IGF-1, which is a polypeptide protein hormone similar in molecular structure to insulin. IGF-1 plays an important role in growth and continues to have anabolic effects in adults – meaning that it can induce hypertrophy of skeletal muscle and other target tissues. Mice lacking the IGF-1 receptor die late in development, and show a dramatic reduction in body mass. This testifies to the strong growth-promoting effect of this receptor.

Growth hormone-binding protein (GHBP) is a soluble carrier protein for growth hormone (GH). The full range of functions of GHBP remains to be determined however, current research suggests that the protein is associated with regulation of the GH availability and half-life in the circulatory system, as well as modulating GH receptor function.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">IGFBP3</span> Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens

Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3, also known as IGFBP-3, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the IGFBP3 gene. IGFBP-3 is one of six IGF binding proteins that have highly conserved structures and bind the insulin-like growth factors IGF-1 and IGF-2 with high affinity. IGFBP-7, sometimes included in this family, shares neither the conserved structural features nor the high IGF affinity. Instead, IGFBP-7 binds IGF1R, which blocks IGF-1 and IGF-2 binding, resulting in apoptosis.

Examorelin (INN) (developmental code names EP-23905, MF-6003), also known as hexarelin, is a potent, synthetic, peptidic, orally-active, centrally-penetrant, and highly selective agonist of the ghrelin/growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR) and a growth hormone secretagogue which was developed by Mediolanum Farmaceutici. It is a hexapeptide with the amino acid sequence His-D-2-methyl-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2 which was derived from GHRP-6. These GH-releasing peptides have no sequence similarity to ghrelin, but mimic ghrelin by acting as agonists at the ghrelin receptor.

Long arginine 3-IGF-1, abbreviated as IGF-1 LR3 or LR3-IGF-1, is a synthetic protein and lengthened analogue of human insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). It differs from native IGF-1 in that it possesses an arginine instead of a glutamic acid at the third position in its amino acid sequence, and also has an additional 13 amino acids at its N-terminus (MFPAMPLLSLFVN) ("long"), for a total of 83 amino acids. The consequences of these modifications are that IGF-1 LR3 retains the pharmacological activity of IGF-1 as an agonist of the IGF-1 receptor, has very low affinity for the insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins (IGFBPs), and has improved metabolic stability. As a result, it is approximately three times more potent than IGF-1, and possesses a significantly longer half-life of about 20–30 hours.

des(1-3)IGF-1 is a naturally occurring, endogenous protein, as well as drug, and truncated analogue of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). des(1-3)IGF-1 lacks the first three amino acids at the N-terminus of IGF-1. As a result of this difference, it has considerably reduced binding to the insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins (IGFBPs) and enhanced potency relative to IGF-1.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Cyclic glycine-proline</span> Small neuroactive peptide

Cyclic glycine-proline (cGP) is a small neuroactive peptide that belongs to a group of bioactive 2,5-diketopiperazines (2,5-DKPs) and is also known as cyclo-glycine-proline. cGP is a neutral, stable naturally occurring compound and is endogenous to the human body; found in human plasma, breast milk and cerebrospinal fluid. DKPs are bioactive compounds often found in foods. Cyclic dipeptides such as 2,5 DKPs are formed by the cyclisation of two amino acids of linear peptides produced in heated or fermented foods. The bioactivity of cGP is a property of functional foods and presents in several matrices of foods including blackcurrants.
