Nutritional intake is an important regulator of plasma somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth factor I (Sm-C/IGF-I) concentrations in plasma. Concentrations in humans are reduced to the hypopituitary range by fasting for only a few days, and their normalization after fasting depends on the adequacy of energy and protein in the refeeding diet. The changes correlate with changes in nitrogen balance. In rats we have observed a close relationship between change in plasma Sm-C/IGF-I and hepatic GH binding with fasting and refeeding, suggesting that alterations in GH binding might be responsible partly for changes in Sm-C/IGF-I. When malnourished humans are given nutrient repletion, the increase in Sm-C/IGF-I is far more dramatic than changes in other nutrient-related serum proteins. 相似文献

A synthetic gene coding for an analogue of somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth factor I (Sm-C/IGF-I) was synthesized by solid support phosphoramidite chemistry and subsequently cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli as a fusion protein. The gene, designed with a threonine codon substituted for a methionine codon at position 59 was expressed fused to an eight-amino acid leader peptide under the direction of the E. coli tryptophan promoter. The fusion protein, termed L0-[Thr59]-Sm-C/IGF-I was purified extensively (greater than 97%) and found to be 60% as active as native Sm-C/IGF-I in a radioimmunoassay and 50% as potent as native Sm-C/IGF-I in a radioreceptor assay. Like native Sm-C/IGF-I it was also mitogenic for Balb/c 3T3 cells. After removal of the eight amino acid leader peptide by cyanogen bromide treatment, the resulting threonine analogue, termed [Thr59]-Sm-C/IGF-I was 80% as potent as native Sm-C/IGF-I in both the RIA and the radioreceptor assays. It was also mitogenic in Balb/c 3T3 cells. These two analogues, therefore, display biological activities similar to human-derived Sm-C/IGF-I. 相似文献

A sensitive radioimmunoassay for somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth-factor I based on synthetic insulin-like growth factor 57-70 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have developed a region-specific radioimmunoassay for somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) directed against IGF-I 57-70. This sequence includes part of the A region and all of the carboxyterminal D region. In addition to being highly specific, this immunoassay is sensitive to as little as 1 ng/ml of IGF-I, and has half-maximum displacement by 10 ng/ml of IGF-I. Comparison to other existent immunoassays for IGF-I shows correlation coefficients of greater than 0.95. This immunoassay has the advantage of being directed against a known region of the IGF-I molecule which is on the exterior of the 3-dimensional structure, and can use a readily available synthetic peptide as both radioligand and standard. 相似文献

A simplified procedure has been developed for the isolation of insulin-like growth factor I from human plasma by use of affinity chromatography with the somatomedin binding protein. After acidification of human plasma and separation of insulin-like growth factor I and endogenous binding protein by cation exchange chromatography on SP-Sephadex the material was passed through a column packed with pure human amniotic fluid binding protein covalently coupled to Sepharose. The bound insulin-like growth factors I and II were eluted by 1M acetic acid and separated on a Mono S cation exchange column by use of a salt gradient. The 30 micrograms insulin-like growth factor I and 18 micrograms insulin-like growth factor II recovered from 1 liter plasma gave an overall recovery of 30% for insulin-like growth factor I but only 2.5% for insulin-like growth factor II. 相似文献

Regulation of DNA synthesis in human fetal hepatocytes by placental lactogen, growth hormone, and insulin-like growth factor I/somatomedin-C 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Hepatocytes were isolated by gentle collagenase digestion of liver fragments from human fetuses of 8-16 weeks gestation obtained following prostaglandin-induced pregnancy terminations. They were maintained on collagen-coated tissue culture dishes in selective arginine-free medium for up to 72 hr, and the action of hormones and growth factors on DNA synthesis was studied by autoradiography following incubation with 3H-thymidine. The labeling index of hepatocytes was consistently enhanced by 25-250 ng/ml human placental lactogen (HPL), 25-250 ng/ml human growth hormone (HGH), 10-50 ng/ml insulin-like growth factor I/somatomedin-C (IGF I/Sm-C), and 10% dialyzed fetal calf serum, reaching a maximum of three- to four-fold greater than in basal medium alone. Under basal conditions, 30% of hepatocytes stained positively for the presence of IGF peptides using a monoclonal antibody raised against purified human IGF I/Sm-C. Although this proportion did not change following treatment with HGH and HPL, IGF I/Sm-C released by cells into culture medium was considerably increased in the presence of both hormones. Incubation with the SmC 1.2 monoclonal antibody abolished the increase in labeling index in response to IGF I/Sm-C and partially blocked the response to both HPL and HGH. These results indicate that both HPL and HGH stimulate DNA synthesis in human fetal hepatocytes and suggest that this effect is at least partly indirect through the release and paracrine action of IGF I/Sm-C. 相似文献

A novel approach for production of small polypeptides, using a staphylococcal protein A vector, is described. This system is used to express, secrete and purify human insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I). A fusion protein consisting of protein A and IGF-I is recovered in high yield by passing the culture medium through an IgG affinity column. Using site-specific mutagenesis an acid labile asp-pro cleavage site was introduced at the fusion point between the two proteins. The protein A "tail" can thereby be removed from the affinity purified fusion protein by chemical cleavage releasing biologically active IGF-I molecules. 相似文献

Growth hormone dependence of somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth factor-II messenger ribonucleic acids 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The GH dependence of somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth factor I (Sm-C/IGF-I) and insulin like growth factor II (IGF-II) mRNAs was investigated by Northern blot hybridizations of polyadenylated RNAs from liver, pancreas, and brain of normal rats, untreated hypophysectomized rats, and hypophysectomized rats 4 h or 8 h after an ip injection of human GH (hGH). Using a 32P-labeled human Sm-C/IGF-I cDNA as probe, four Sm-C/IGF-I mRNAs of 7.5, 4.7, 1.7, and 1.2 kilobases (kb) were detected in rat liver and pancreas but were not detectable in brain. In both liver and pancreas, the abundance of these Sm-C/IGF-I mRNAs was 8- to 10-fold lower in hypophysectomized rats than in normal rats. Within 4 h after injection of hGH into hypophysectomized animals, the abundance of liver and pancreatic Sm-C/IGF-I mRNAs was restored to normal. A human IGF-II cDNA was used as a probe for rat IGF-II mRNAs which were found to be very low in abundance in rat liver and showed no evidence of regulation by GH status. In pancreas, IGF-II mRNA abundance was below the detection limit of the hybridization procedures. The brain contained two IGF-II mRNAs of 4.7 and 3.9 kb that were 5-fold lower in abundance in hypophysectomized rats than in normal rats. These brain IGF-II mRNAs were not, however, restored to normal abundance at 4 or 8 h after ip hGH injection into hypophysectomized animals. To investigate further, the effect of GH status on abundance of Sm-C/IGF-I and IGF-II mRNAs in rat brain, a second experiment was performed that differed from the first in that hypophysectomized rats were given an injection of hGH into the lateral ventricle (intracerebroventricular injection) and a rat Sm-C/IGF-I genomic probe was used to analyze Sm-C/IGF-I mRNAs. In this experiment, a 7.5 kb Sm-C/IGF-I mRNA was detected in brain polyadenylated RNAs. The abundance of the 7.5 kb mRNA was 4-fold lower in hypophysectomized rats than in normal rats and was increased to 80% of normal within 4 h after icv administration of hGH to hypophysectomized animals. As in the first experiment, the abundance of the 4.7 and 3.9 kb brain IGF-II mRNAs was lower than normal in hypophysectomized rats. Brain IGF-II mRNAs were increased to 50% of normal in hypophysectomized rats given an icv injection of hGH but within 8 h after the injection rather than at 4 h as with Sm-C/IGF-I mRNAs. 相似文献

Alterations in the synthesis of a fibroblast surface associated 35 K protein modulates the binding of somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth factor I 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
D R Clemmons V K Han R G Elgin A J D'Ercole 《Molecular endocrinology (Baltimore, Md.)》1987,1(5):339-347
Human fibroblasts, a cell type that is used extensively to determine the pleiotypic effects of the insulin-like growth factors, have been shown to secrete a 35K protein that binds somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth factor I (Sm-C/IGF-I) but not insulin. This 35 K protein is associated with the fibroblast surface and following transfer to the surface of cell types that do not have this protein on their surfaces, it alters the binding of radiolabeled Sm-C/IGF-I. In this study human fibroblast monolayers that were incubated with cyclohexamide (50 micrograms/ml) for 14 h at 37 C had no detectable 35 K protein on their cell surface, but type I Sm-C/IGF-I receptors were still present. Loss of the 35 K protein was associated with 60-70% increase in binding of Sm-C/IGF-I to type I receptors. The relative affinity of the type I receptor for Sm-C/IGF-I was apparently increased because unlabeled Sm-C/IGF-I (12 ng/ml) competitively displaced 63% of radiolabeled Sm-C/IGF-I after cycloheximide exposure, whereas in cultures not exposed to cycloheximide [125I]Sm-C/IGF-I binding was increased by 11%. Coincubation of fibroblast conditioned media containing the 35 K protein with cycloheximide-treated fibroblast monolayers resulted in restoration of the paradoxical increase in Sm-C/IGF-I binding and loss of sensitivity to competition by unlabeled Sm-C/IGF-I. Exposure of suspended fibroblasts, which do not have 35 K on their cell surface, to media conditioned by fibroblast monolayers also induced both of these changes.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF I)/somatomedin-C (SM-C) was purified from lyophilized human serum by acid-ethanol extraction. The extract was precipitated with acetone-ethanol. The precipitate was purified by Sephadex G-50 chromatography. The protein peak within a molecular weight range of 5000-10 000 was further purified with FPLC-reversed phase chromatography using a Pep RPC HR 5/5 column (Pharmacia) with a solvent system of acetonitrile (CH3CN) and 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in water. The purification of IGF I was monitored by radioimmunoassay for SM-C. Purity was established by analytical isoelectric focusing and by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Analytical isoelectric focusing showed one single protein band with an apparent pI of 8.3 +/- 0.1. SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis showed also one single protein band with an apparent molecular weight of 7000. Biological activity was demonstrated by measuring the (3H)thymidine incorporation into DNA of cultured arterial smooth muscle cells. 相似文献

Expression, purification and characterization of recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I in yeast 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is a 70 amino acid (aa) protein that is structurally similar and functionally related to insulin. We have inserted a synthetic gene coding for human IGF-I into a Saccharomyces cerevisiae expression vector utilizing the MF alpha 1 promoter and pre-pro leader peptide. This vector directs the expression and secretion of native, biologically active growth factor. Cleavage of the pre-pro alpha factor leader sequence in vivo results in the secretion of a 70-aa recombinant IGF-I molecule with the native N-terminal glycine residue. Human IGF-I purified from yeast culture supernatant is equipotent to serum-derived IGF-I in inhibiting [125I]IGF-I binding to type-I IGF receptors and crude human serum-binding proteins. Recombinant IGF-I is also equipotent to human IGF-I in the stimulation of DNA synthesis in rat aortic smooth-muscle cells. In contrast, yeast recombinant IGF-I is less potent than serum-derived IGF-I in binding to type-2 IGF receptors. The ability to produce native, biologically active IGF-I in yeast will allow the elucidation of binding domains through the expression and characterization of specific structural analogs. 相似文献

Efficient recovery of recombinant proteins using membrane-based immunoaffinity chromatography (MIC) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A systematic approach to the design and development of membrane-based immunoaffinity systems for the purification of recombinant proteins is presented. The preparation and characterization of immunoaffinity membranes are described. The immunoaffinity purification process for recombinant interferon-alpha2a is used as a model system to determine the operational parameters in membrane-based immunoaffinity chromatography. The high volumetric throughput of membranes, combined with the typically fastbinding kinetics of antigen-antibody interactions, enable the purification of recombinant proteins from dilute feed stream in less time, using less antibody than conventional systems. Three recombinant proteins, human interferon-alpha2a, interleukin-2, and interleukin-2 receptor, have been purified efficiently employing membrane-based immunoaffinity chromatography. Overall, membrane-based immunoaffinity chromatography is shown to be a viable and scalable method, ideal for the industrial-scale production of recombinant proteins.

Random levels of growth hormone (GH) are usually not helpful in diagnosing either GH deficiency or GH hypersecretion because GH is secreted in a pulsatile fashion. Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), however, is a good indicator of GH secretion and action, particularly at the level of the liver. There is a good correlation between IGF-I and several clinical indices of acromegaly. Measurements of both IGF-I and GH are cornerstones of biochemical diagnosis and follow-up of acromegaly, although in patients treated with pegvisomant, IGF-I levels should be followed rather than GH levels. IGF-I immunoassays differ in assay design, label, intra- and inter-assay precision, and calibrator or standard used, so IGF-I assays may be difficult to compare with one another. Hence, it is essential that the assays used in the laboratory are well validated and adequate normal ranges are available for the levels to be interpreted in a robust manner. 相似文献

Determinations of serum concentrations of total insulin-like growth factor I (tIGF-I) are important in the diagnosis, monitoring of treatment and safety evaluation of patients with growth disorders and/or metabolic disease. It is well established that tIGF-I status varies over time. Changes in tIGF-I levels in relation to an acute bout of exercise or repeated bouts, known as training, are likely to contribute to this variation. Serum tIGF-I has also been found to be of predictive value in growth prediction models employed before the start of growth hormone (GH) treatment. Furthermore, IGF-I generation tests have been suggested to be of value in the assessment of the growth response to GH administration in patients suspected of GH deficiency with or without some degree of GH insensitivity. This is discussed elsewhere in this issue. Recent progress in our understanding of growth hormone-dependent and -independent expression of the IGF1 gene in skeletal muscle and the role of sufficient energy intake during training for muscle and liver generation of IGF-I raises important questions regarding their relative contribution to the circulating pool of IGF-I. The present review is focused on circulating levels of tIGF-I in relation to a single bout of exercise or to a period of training. In addition, the expression of IGF-I locally in muscle in response to these stimuli will be discussed. 相似文献

Variations in somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth factor-I associated with environmental temperature and nutrition 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The influences of environmental temperature and energy intake on plasma concentrations of somatomedin-C/insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) have been investigated in young growing pigs. After 10 weeks acclimation, IGF-I was significantly greater at 35 than 10 degrees C (P less than 0.001) and on a high than a low energy intake (P less than 0.001). During the period 16-26 h after the last meal, there was a significant decline in IGF-I with time (P less than 0.01). These results can be explained partly in relation to differences in energy exchange in warm and cold environments and may also be related to changes in growth and thyroid hormones. 相似文献

Efficient cleavage by alpha-thrombin of a recombinant fused protein which contains insulin-like growth factor I 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The gene for insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) was constructed from chemically synthesized deoxyoligonucleotides and expressed in Escherichia coli, under the control of a trp promoter, as a set of fusion proteins which were connected with a portion of human growth hormone through the recognition sequence for a sequence-specific protease, either blood coagulation factor Xa or alpha-thrombin. Upon induction with 3-indoleacrylic acid, fusion proteins accumulated with a yield of 10-30% of the total protein. A fusion protein connected through a tetradecapeptide (Asp-Asp-Pro-Pro-Thr-Val-Glu-Leu-Gln-Gly-Leu-Val-Pro-Arg) was efficiently and correctly cleaved by alpha-thrombin, and the purified IGF-I possessed somatomedin-like activity, as determined by the enhancement of sulfation of glycosaminoglycans in cultured costal chondrocytes from rabbits. 相似文献

Recombinant human insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is efficiently expressed and secreted fromSaccharomyces cerevisiae using a yeast -factor leader to direct secretion. However, approximately 10–20% of the IGF-I was in a monomeric form, the remaining materials being disulfide-linked aggregates. When the purified material was subjected to reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (rp-HPLC), it gave two doublet peaks, I and II. Upon reduction, doublet peaks I and II converged to one doublet peak. This suggests that peaks I and II result from different disulfide structures, and the doublet feature of each peak results from other causes. Different disulfide structures between peaks I and II were also suggested from the near UV circular dichroism of these proteins. Only the peak II was biologically active, indicating that peak II has the correct disulfide structure. Concanavalin A affinity chromatography of the purified peak II doublet showed binding of the subpeak with an earlier rp-HPLC retention time, indicating that it was glycosylated. Sequence analysis of tryptic peptides suggested that Thr29 was the site of glycosylation. Site-directed mutagenesis was used to convert Thr29 to Asn29. This substitution reduced, but did not eliminate IGF-I glycosylation, suggesting additional glycosylation sites. The site of carbohydrate addition was consistent with the model that O-glycosylations occur on hydroxyl amino acids near proline residues in -turns. 相似文献

We produced antiserum to insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I), and developed a specific and sensitive radioimmunoassay (RIA) for IGF-I using the biosynthetic IGF-I. This antiserum to IGF-I was specific for IGF-I; no cross-reactivities with multiplication stimulating activity, porcine insulin or human growth hormone (hGH) were detected. The sensitivity was 10-25 pg/tube with 50% displacement at 125 pg/tube. The intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation for IGF-I were 5.4 and 9.7%, respectively. The plasma IGF-I levels as determined by RIA in normal adults (N = 46), patients with active acromegaly (N = 31), and pituitary dwarfs (N = 31) were 21.6 +/- 1.0, 157.3 +/- 17.0, and 2.5 +/- 0.3 ng/ml (Mean +/- SEM), respectively, indicating the levels were GH-dependent. The plasma IGF-I levels were significantly increased from 2.2 +/- 0.2 to 26.5 +/- 3.2 ng/ml after hGH administrations for three consecutive days in five pituitary dwarfs. The IGF-I levels were low in patients with hypothyroidism and liver cirrhosis, but were normal in patients with chronic renal failure. These data confirm previous reports and this radioimmunoassay proves useful in evaluating plasma IGF-I levels. 相似文献

The lantibiotic nisin A was purified to homogeneity by a single-step immunoaffinity chromatography method. An immunoadsorption matrix was developed by direct binding of anti-nisin A monoclonal antibodies to N-hydroxysuccinimide-activated Sepharose. The purification procedure was rapid and reproducible and rendered much higher final yields of nisin than any other described method. 相似文献
