Abstract
Isolated cells produce insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and their binding proteins (IGFBPs). Two distinct cell types were studied with regard to IGFBP-2 expression: (i) rat hepatocytes, which produce IGF I at a high rate and thus regulate its plasma concentration; and (ii) rat osteoblasts, which are targets of IGF I action. IGFBP-2 expression is low in hepatocytes prepared from normal adult rats and high in calvaria cells from newborn rats. Retinoic acid stimulates IGFBP-2 production by liver cells. Insulin suppresses both basal and retinoic acid-induced IGFBP-2 mRNA expression in hepatocytes and has no such effect on osteoblasts. Retinoic acid and insulin regulate IGFBP-2 expression in a tissue-specific manner.
