We examined postprandial changes in circulating growth hormone (GH), insulin, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I, and IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) in yearling coho salmon under different feeding regimes. Fish were initially fasted for 1 day, 1 wk, or 3 wk. Fasted fish were then fed, and blood was collected at 4-h intervals over 26 h. After the various periods of fasting, basal levels of insulin were relatively constant, whereas those of IGF-I, IGFBPs and GH changed in proportion to the duration of the fast. A single meal caused a rapid, large increase in the circulating insulin levels, but the degree of the increase was influenced by the fasting period. IGF-I showed a moderate increase 2 h after the meal but only in the regularly fed fish. Plasma levels of 41-kDa IGFBP were increased in all groups within 6 h after the single meal. The fasting period did not influence the response of 41-kDa IGFBP to the meal. IGFBP-1 and GH decreased after the meal to the same extent among groups regardless of the fasting period. The present study shows that insulin and IGF-I respond differently to long (weeks)- and short (hours)-term nutritional changes in salmon; insulin maintains its basal level but changes acutely in response to food intake, whereas IGF-I adjusts its basal levels to the long-term nutritional status and is less responsive to acute nutritional input. IGFBPs maintain their sensitivity to food intake, even after prolonged fasting, suggesting their critical role in the nutritional regulation of salmon growth.

Recombinant insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) and two structural analogues, des(1-6)IGF-II and [Arg6]-IGF-II, were produced to investigate the role of N-terminal residues in binding to IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) and hence the biological properties of the modified peptides. The growth factors were modelled on two previously characterized variants of IGF-I, des(1-3)IGF-I and [Arg3]-IGF-I, which both show substantially decreased binding to IGFBPs and were expressed as fusion proteins in Escherichia coli. The biological activities of the corresponding analogues of IGF-I and IGF-II were compared in rat L6 myoblasts and H35B hepatoma cells. In the L6-myoblast protein-synthesis assay, the IGF-II analogues, des(1-6)IGF-II and [Arg6]-IGF-II, were slightly more potent than IGF-II but about 10-fold less potent than IGF-I and 100-fold less potent than the respective IGF-I analogues, des(1-3)IGF-I and [Arg3]IGF-I. In H35 hepatoma cells the anabolic response measured was the inhibition of protein breakdown, and the potency order was insulin >>> [Arg3]-IGF-I > des(1-3)IGF-I > [Arg6]-IGF-II > des(1-6)IGF-II > IGF-I > IGF-II. Binding of the IGFs and their analogues to the type 1 IGF receptor in L6 myoblasts and to the insulin receptor in H35 hepatoma cells did not fully explain the observed anabolic potency differences. Moreover, binding of all four analogues to the IGFBPs secreted by L6 myoblasts and H35B hepatoma cells was greatly decreased compared with the parent IGF. We conclude that the observed anabolic response to each IGF was determined by their relative binding to the competing cell receptor and IGFBP binding sites present.

ABSTRACT In vitro, insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) promotes both growth and development of bovine mammary tissue. In vivo, the effects of IGF-I may encompass endocrine, paracrine or autocrine mediation. We addressed the possibility of paracrine/autocrine effects of IGF-I in the mammary gland by examining the in-vitro secretion of IGF-I and IGF-binding proteins (IGFBPs) from bovine mammary tissue. Bovine mammary explants from pregnant non-lactating and lactating non-pregnant animals were found to synthesize and secrete IGF-I and IGFBPs. Mammary acini cultures, representative of mammary secretory epithelia, secreted both IGF-I and IGFBP, but synthesized only IGFBP. Concentrations of IGF-I in conditioned media from explants were 1·54 and 0·72 fmol/μg DNA for pregnant and lactating animals respectively. Concentrations of IGFBPs in conditioned media from explants were similar for both physiological states at 2529 pmol 125I-labelled IGF-I bound/pg DNA. Ligand/Western blotting procedures identified four IGFBPs of 29, 33, 37 and 44 kDa for acini cultures and five IGFBPs of 28, 31, 36, 44 and 46 kDa for explant cultures. Similar affinities for IGF-I and IGF-II were shown by IGFBP, using 125I-labelled recombinant human IGF-I as the competing ligand (median effective dose (ED50) of 0·085 pmol). When 125I-labelled bovine IGF-II was used as the ligand, only bovine IGF-II (ED50 of 0·25 pmol) inhibited binding. The addition of prolactin, insulin and cortisol, with or without GH, did not affect secretion of either IGF-I or IGFBP. This report describes the ability of normal mammary tissue to synthesize and secrete IGF-I and IGFBPs. Journal of Endocrinology (1991) 128, 219–228
