IGF-I, also known as insulin-like growth factor 1), was initially described in 1957 as a hormone that is important for child development, and also has anabolic effects in adults. It is a member of the IGF family that is comprised of three members: IGF-I, IGF-II, and insulin. IGF-I and IGF-II share approximately 50% similarity with insulin at the amino acid level. Human IGF-I is synthesized as a 191 amino acid prepro-IGF-I; pro-IGF-I is processed to the mature, active protein, and this procedure requires glucose regulating protein 94 (GRP94) that possesses chaperone activity towards IGF-I. Deletion of muscle GRP94 impairs muscle and body growth by inhibiting local production of IGF proteins. Seven IGF binding proteins have been described (IGFBP-1 to -7). IGFBPs extend the half-lives and regulate the availability of IGF-I and IGF-II. It has been described that IGFBP3 is the main circulating binding protein for IGFs in serum. 75% of circulating IGF-I and IGF-II bind to IGFBP3 and the co-carrier acid labile subunit (ALS). IGF-I binds to three receptors, and the binding to IGFIR promotes cell proliferation, survival, differentiation, and migration. IGF-I deficiency is associated with growth hormone insensitivity syndrome (GHIS), which is also called Laron syndrome, liver cirrhosis, age-related cardiovascular, neurological diseases, and intrauterine growth restriction.
