Abstract
The factors controlling linear growth and weight gain in the human fetus and newborn infant are poorly understood. We review here the changes in linear growth, weight gain, lean body mass, and fat mass during mid- and late gestation and the early postnatal period in the context of changes in the secretion and action of maternal, placental, fetal, and neonatal hormones, growth factors, and adipocytokines. We assess the effects of hormonal determinants on placental nutrient delivery and the impact of preterm delivery on hormone expression and postnatal growth and metabolic function. We then discuss the effects of various maternal disorders and nutritional and pharmacologic interventions on fetal and perinatal hormone and growth factor production, growth, and fat deposition and consider important unresolved questions in the field.

Navarro M, Joulia D, Fedon Y, Levin J, Barenton B, Bernardi H. The atypical alpha2beta2 IGF receptor expressed in inducible c2.7 myoblasts is derived from post-translational modifications of the mouse IGF-I receptor. Growth Horm IGF Res 2008; 18:412-423. [PMID: 18440847 DOI: 10.1016/j.ghir.2008.03.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2007] [Revised: 02/11/2008] [Accepted: 03/06/2008] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Unlike parental permissive C2.7 myoblasts, inducible C2.7 myoblasts require IGF-I or IGF-II to differentiate and expression of MyoD is not constitutive. Our previous studies indicated that inducible myoblasts express an atypical alpha2beta2 IGF receptor that differs from the classical IGF-I receptor by its higher affinity for IGF-II compared with IGF-I and the higher molecular weight of its alpha and beta subunits. Expression of this atypical IGF-I receptor is developmentally regulated; hence this receptor is lost upon terminal differentiation. Muscle cell differentiation is a system in which IGF-II plays an essential role and developmentally regulated atypical IGF-I receptor may represent a candidate for mediating differentiation signals provided by IGF-II. To further understand the structure and the role of the atypical IGF-I receptor, (i) we investigated for a putative IGF-I receptor transcript polymorphism by extensive sequencing of RT-PCR products; (ii) we overexpressed cloned mouse IGF-I receptor in permissive and inducible C2.7 myoblasts and characterized the binding and structural properties of overexpressed IGF-I receptor and (iii) we analysed the effects of this overexpression on myoblasts differentiation. DESIGN Cultured mouse myoblasts C2.7 and subclone variant inducible C2.7 cell lines were used. Mouse IGF-I receptor cDNA was cloned by cDNA library screening. Gene expression was measured by semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis and receptor affinity by ligand binding. Receptor protein autophosphorylation of IGF-IR was analysed by immunoprecipitation and Western blot. Myoblastic differentiation was accessed by myogenic factors expression and immunofluorescence study. RESULTS Atypical IGF-I receptor may correspond to a new receptor belonging to the insulin/IGF-I receptor family, or it may also derive from alternate splicing of the gene of the insulin/IGF-I receptors and/or post-translational modifications of the insulin/IGF-I receptors. Our results exclude the existence of a polymorphism of the IGF-I receptor transcripts in inducible and permissive myoblasts. In embryo and cancer cells IGF-II binds to insulin receptor (IR) isoform A, RT-PCR experiments show that IR is expressed in permissive but not in inducible myoblasts. We demonstrated here that post-translational processing of the mouse IGF-I receptor is responsible for the existence of the mouse atypical IGF-I receptor in inducible myoblasts. Overexpressed mouse IGF-I receptor in permissive myoblasts has the same biochemical and binding characteristics as the classical IGF-I receptor whereas in inducible myoblasts, overexpressed mouse IGF-I receptor has the biochemical, binding and functional characteristics of the atypical IGF-I receptor. CONCLUSIONS Our results provide experimental evidence that the atypical IGF-I receptor variant expressed in subclone inducible C2.7 is issued from a post-translational processing of mouse IGF-I receptor. We show that this post-translational modification is closely associated with the cell lines indeed permissive C2.7 myoblasts process mouse cDNA IGF-I receptor as a classical IGF-I receptor whereas inducible C2.7 myoblasts process mouse cDNA IGF-I receptor as an atypical IGF-I receptor. On other hand, we show that overexpression of mouse IGF-I receptor in inducible myoblasts does not abrogate IGF-I or IGF-II requirement to differentiate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the expression of the insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) and the IGF-I receptor in primitive neuroectodermal tumor cell lines and to assess the importance of these proteins in the growth of cell lines in vitro. METHODS Ribonucleic acid blotting and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction were used for detection of IGF and IGF-I expression. Ribonucleic acid blotting was used for detection of up-regulation of c-fos in the presence of exogenous growth factor. Immunoprecipitation was used to demonstrate autophosphorylation of the receptor in the presence of exogenous growth factor. Ligand binding analysis was used to determine the binding affinity of the receptor and the number of receptors per cell. Growth of curves in the presence of monoclonal antibody that blocks binding of ligand to receptor was measured to determine the requirement for an activated receptor during growth. RESULTS Expression of IGF-II was identified in one cell line. No expression of IGF-I was seen in any cell line. Expression of IGF-I receptor was detected in all three cell lines. Immunoprecipitation experiments demonstrated autophosphorylation of the receptor after addition of IGF-I to growing cells. Ligand binding analysis revealed 9.2 x 10(4) and 4 x 10(4) receptors per cell in the Daoy and PFSK cell lines, respectively. Addition of either IGF alone or in combination to serum-starved cells was not able to restore growth of the cell lines. A blocking monoclonal antireceptor antibody decreased growth of Daoy and PFSK cells in a dose-dependent fashion. Complete arrest of growth occurred at 1 microgram/ml antibody in both cell lines. CONCLUSION The IGF-I receptor is expressed by primitive neuroectodermal tumor cell lines in vitro. An activated receptor is important for cell proliferation in vitro. Additional work will establish the importance of these findings for tumors in vivo.

Abstract
In this study, we have used enterocyte-like differentiated HT29-D4 human colonic carcinoma cells cultured in a glucose-free medium (HT29-D4-GAL cells) on semi-permeable supports in order to investigate the polarity of the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system. We report that these cells secrete endogenous IGF-II predominantly (66%) from the basolateral cell surface where type I IGF receptors are almost all (> 96%) localized. HT29-D4-GAL cells also secrete IGF-binding protein (IGFBP) -2, -4, and -6 as evidenced by Western ligand and immunoblot analyses of conditioned medium. IGFBP-2 and IGFBP-4 are secreted primarily into the basolateral side (71 and 87%, respectively), whereas IGFBP-6 is targeted to the apical surface (76%) as a possible consequence of an active sorting. Finally, HT29-D4-GAL cells are found to display responses to IGF-II added to the basolateral but not the apical membrane side in terms of intracellular tyrosine phosphorylation and long-term stimulation of amino acid uptake. This study indicates (a) that IGF-II is potentially capable of autocrine regulation on the basolateral side of HT29-D4-GAL cell, and (b) that IGFBP-6 has a unique pattern of secretory polarity. It supports the concept that a differential sorting of the various forms of IGFBPs might play a modulatory role in the maintenance of a functional polarity in the differentiated HT29-D4-GAL cells.

Abstract
Glucocorticoids act synergistically with insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) to stimulate DNA synthesis and replication of cultured human fibroblasts. In the present study, we further define glucocorticoid and IGF-I interactive effects on human fibroblast metabolism and growth. IGF-I stimulated dose-dependent increases in early metabolic events. Half-maximal effectiveness was seen at 5-8 ng/ml IGF-I, with mean maximal responses of 1.5-, 2-, and 6-fold for [3H]2-deoxyglucose uptake, [14C]glucose incorporation, and [14C]aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) uptake, respectively. A 48-hour preincubation with 10(-7) M dexamethasone markedly enhanced both the sensitivity and maximal effectiveness of IGF-I stimulation of AIB uptake. In contrast, dexamethasone had no effect on IGF-I-stimulated glucose uptake and utilization. Maximum specific binding of [125I]IGF-I to fibroblast monolayers was identical in ethanol control and glucocorticoid-treated cells, with 50% displacement at approximately 5 ng/ml IGF-I. In addition to its synergism with IGF-I, preincubation with dexamethasone augmented insulin and epidermal growth factor (EGF) stimulation of [3H]thymidine incorporation; dexamethasone had no effect on platelet-derived growth factor or fibroblast growth factor action. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis identified two specific glucocorticoid-induced proteins in human fibroblast cell extracts with molecular weights of 45K and 53K and pIs of 6.8 and 6.3, respectively. These data indicate that IGF-I receptor-mediated actions in human fibroblasts are differentially modulated by glucocorticoids. Glucocorticoids are synergistic with IGF-I in stimulating mitogenesis and amino acid uptake, without having any apparent effect on IGF-I-stimulating glucose metabolism. Glucocorticoid enhancement of growth factor bioactivity may involve modulation of a regulatory event in the mitogenic signaling pathway subsequent to cell surface receptor activation.

Abstract
Cellular insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) mRNA and IGFBP-3 levels in conditioned medium were consistently higher in cultures of late passage normal (old) fibroblasts and prematurely senescent fibroblasts derived from Werner syndrome (WS) during quiescence induced by serum depletion and during the renewed growth ensuing after serum repletion, compared to cultures of early passage normal (young) fibroblasts. Molar ratios of IGFBP-3/IGF-II were always higher in senescent cultures and maintained a hierarchy of old > WS > young human diploid fibroblasts. Transfection into fibroblasts of the normal full-length IGFBP-3 cDNA in an expression vector resulted in a significant reduction in colony formation compared to cells transfected with an empty expression vector (no cDNA) or with IGFBP-3 cDNA altered by a 273 base pair (bp) deletion. Addition to old and young cultures of recombinant human IGFBP-3 and IGF-I at 1:1 or 5:1 molar ratios inhibited IGF-I-mediated DNA synthesis by approximately 70-80%. These data indicate that IGFBP-3 may play an important role in the quiescent and senescent growth arrest of HDF.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) mRNA levels were consistently higher in both senescent normal human diploid fibroblasts (HDFs) at late passage (old cells) and prematurely senescent HDFs from a subject with Werner syndrome (WS) during serum depletion and repletion of growth medium and during proliferation from sparse to high-density inhibited cultures, compared to normal early-passage (young) HDFs. However, IGFBP-3 protein accumulated to higher levels in conditioned medium of old cells than in medium of WS and young cells, in that order, under the same conditions. Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) was not detected in naive medium or in any of the media conditioned by these three cell types, whereas IGF-II was detectable in serum-repleted medium and remained relatively constant. Thus, molar ratios of IGFBP-3/IGF-II were consistently higher in old and WS cells and increased substantially as all three cell types became quiescent, due to either serum depletion or high cell density. These data are consistent with either an adaptive or a causal role for IGFBP-3 protein in the senescent and quiescent growth arrest of HDFs.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor I and II (IGF-I and IGF-II) associate with specific IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs) present in plasma and extracellular fluids that can modulate the anabolic effects of these peptides. IGF-I has been shown to increase IGFBP concentrations in vivo and in vitro, but the mechanism and significance of this action are unknown. We examined these issues using normal and simian virus 40-transformed adult human fibroblasts (SV40-HF) in culture. Treatment with IGF-I markedly stimulated the appearance of IGFBP-3 (42/38 kD doublet), a 36 kD IGFBP, and 28-32 kD IGFBPs in the medium of these cells, as assessed by Western ligand blotting; IGF-I decreased levels of 24 kD IGFBP in normal HF cultures. The IGF-I-induced change in IGFBP levels was not a type I IGF receptor-mediated effect on IGFBP synthesis because (a) high concentrations of insulin did not mimic IGF-I's effect; (b) IGF-II and IGF-I analogues having reduced affinity for the IGF-I receptor were equipotent with IGF-I in increasing medium IGFBPs; (c) [QAYL]IGF-I, and IGF-I analogue having normal receptor affinity and decreased affinity for IGFBPs, had no effect; and (d) alpha IR-3, a monoclonal antibody specific for the type I IGF receptor, did not block IGF-I-stimulated increases in IGFBPs. In physiological studies, preincubation with 1 nM IGF-I had no effect on type I IGF receptor binding in normal HF and SV40-HF. In contrast, preincubation of cells with an equivalent concentration of [QAYL]IGF-I downregulated the receptors 40-50%. Changes in cell surface receptor number were reflected in cell responsiveness to IGF-I-stimulated [3H]thymidine incorporation and [3H]aminoisobutyric acid uptake. In conclusion, IGF-I regulates the availability of specific IGFBPs in cultured human fibroblasts by a novel receptor-independent mechanism. Rapid changes in levels of soluble IGFBPs as a direct response to extracellular IGF-I, in turn, modulate IGF-I peptide and receptor interaction, and may constitute an important level of control in IGF cellular physiology.

Abstract
We isolated genomic fragments containing the 5' region of the human type I insulin-like growth factor receptor gene. A unique transcription start site was identified, defining a 1038 bp 5'-untranslated region. No TATA or CCAAT elements were identified in the proximal 480 nucleotides of 5'-flanking region. The region surrounding the transcription start site was similar to a recently described "initiator" sequence. The 5'-flanking and 5'-untranslated regions were highly GC-rich, with numerous potential Sp1 binding sites. A potential AP-2 binding site was identified in the 5'-flanking region and a potential thyroid response element was identified in the 5'-untranslated region. The 5' region of the human gene was very similar to that of the rat gene, with conservation of many of the potential regulatory elements.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-II/mannose-6-phosphate (M6P) receptor, which targets acid hydrolases to lysosomes, is a multifunctional protein with separate binding sites for IGF-II and M6P. The purpose of this study was to determine if alveolar macrophages (AM) and their precursor cells, blood monocytes, expressed this receptor. AM expressed IGF-II/M6P receptors as detected by [125]IGF-II surface binding that was not reduced by recombinant IGF-I or IGF-I receptor monoclonal antibody (alpha IR3). Surface binding was also detected on blood monocytes and could be upregulated approximately 4-fold by incubation with lipopolysaccharide. There were no differences in surface binding by AM lavaged from individuals with asbestos exposure or from normal volunteers. Using the polymerase chain reaction and reverse transcriptase to reverse-transcribe mRNA from mononuclear phagocytes, specific IGF-II/M6P receptor cDNA was amplified and detected by agarose gel electrophoresis from both AM and blood monocytes. The IGF-II/M6P receptor has an intracellular transport role in many cells cycling from the cell surface to the cytoplasm, or binding to phosphorylated acid hydrolases in the Golgi and transporting them to an acidic prelysosomal site where they dissociate and fuse to the lysosomes and IGF-II/M6P recycles to the trans-Golgi. These functions may be particularly important in asbestosis and other interstitial lung diseases where AM are activated, intracellular lysosomes are a prominent morphologic feature, and acid hydrolases are found in recovered lavage fluid.

Abstract
Neuroblastoma is an embryonal tumor that typically arises in cells of the developing adrenal medulla. IGF-II mRNA is expressed at high levels in the adrenal cortex before birth but it is not detectable until after birth in the adrenal medulla. Neuroblastoma cell lines corresponding to early adrenal medullary precursors did not express IGF-II, although all three cell lines we tested were growth stimulated by IGF-II. Cell lines corresponding to more mature adrenal medullary cells expressed IGF-II, and one, SK-N-AS, grows by an IGF-II autocrine mechanism (J. Clin. Invest. 84:829-839) El-Badry, Romanus, Helman, Cooper, Rechler, and Israel. 1989. An examination of human neuroblastoma tumor tissues for IGF-II gene expression using in situ hybridization histochemistry revealed that IGF-II is expressed by tumor cells in only 5 of 21 neuroblastomas, but is detectable in cells of nonmalignant tissues including adrenal cortical cells, stromal fibroblasts, and eosinophils in all 21 tumors. These findings indicate that IGF-II may function as an autocrine growth factor for some neuroblastomas and as a paracrine growth factor for others. They suggest that the growth regulatory pathways utilized by neuroblastoma mimic those used in the precursor cell type from which individual tumors arise.

Abstract
We have previously shown that the protein encoded by a human insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) receptor cDNA binds both IGF-I and II with high affinity. In the present studies, we show that a monoclonal antibody to the IGF-I receptor, alpha IR-3, inhibits the binding of IGF-I but not IGF-II to the expressed receptor in intact cells and after solubilization. Surprisingly, this monoclonal antibody inhibits the ability of both IGF-I and II to stimulate thymidine synthesis in cells with the expressed receptor. Moreover, this antibody inhibits the ability of both IGF-I and II to stimulate the kinase activity of the IGF-I receptor in intact cells. These results indicate that alpha IR-3 binds to the IGF-I receptor in such a way that it does not inhibit the binding of IGF-II but does inhibit the subsequent ability of the receptor to be activated to transmit a signal.

Abstract
We previously reported that insulin-like growth factor-II (IGF-II) stimulates both calcium influx and DNA synthesis by acting on the cell surface IGF-II receptor (IGF-IIR) in a manner sensitive to pertussis toxin, and recently demonstrated that IGF-II binding to the IGF-IIR gives rise to functional changes of purified Gi-2, a GTP-binding protein (G protein) in phospholipid vesicles as well as in broken cell membranes. On the other hand, a variety of evidence indicates that the IGF-IIR binds mannose 6-phosphate (man6P) with high affinity probably at a receptor extracellular region different from the IGF-II-binding site. In the present study, we examined whether man6P stimulation of the IGF-IIR evokes the activation of Gi-2 in phospholipid vesicles and in native cell membranes. In vesicles reconstituted with purified rat IGF-IIR and bovine Gi-2, man6P did not stimulate GDP dissociation from Gi-2 even in concentrations up to 10 mM, while IGF-II dose-dependently facilitated GDP release from Gi-2 with an EC50 of 6 nM. The stimulatory effect of IGF-II was not observed in vesicles reconstituted with Gi-2 alone. In addition, also in a native environment of cell membranes, man6P did not affect an endogenous 40-kDa protein or exogenously added purified Gi-2 as assessed with reduction of the pertussis toxin-catalyzed ADP-ribosylation. These results indicate that the IGF-IIR does not activate Gi-like proteins upon man6P binding in phospholipid vesicles and in native cellular membranes, whereas the receptor activates Gi-like proteins upon IGF-II binding in both environments. Thus, we postulate that the IGF-IIR dissimilarly responds to the two structurally unrelated ligands, IGF-II and man6P, in the linkage function with G proteins.

Abstract
The cells of the IM-9 human lymphocyte-derived line contain a sub-population of insulin-binding sites whose immunological and hormone-binding characteristics closely resemble those of the atypical insulin-binding sites of human placenta. These binding sites, which have moderately high affinity for multiplication-stimulating activity [MSA, the rat homologue of insulin-like growth factor (IGF) II] and IGF-I, are identified on IM-9 cells by 125I-MSA binding. They account for approximately 30% of the total insulin-receptor population, and do not react with a monoclonal antibody to the type I IGF receptor (alpha IR-3). The relative concentrations of unlabelled insulin, MSA and IGF-I required to displace 50% of 125I-MSA from these binding sites (1:4.7:29 respectively) are maintained for cells, particulate membranes, Triton-solubilized membranes precipitated either by poly(ethylene glycol) or a polyclonal antibody (B-10) to the insulin receptor, and receptors purified by insulin affinity chromatography. Because the atypical insulin/MSA-binding sites outnumber the type I IGF receptors in IM-9 cells by approximately 10-fold, they also compete with the latter receptors for 125I-IGF-I binding. Thus 125I-IGF-I binding to IM-9 cells is inhibited by moderately low concentrations of insulin (relative potency ratios for insulin compared with IGF-I are approx. 1/14 to 1/4) and is partially displaced (65-80%) by alpha IR-3. When type I IGF receptors are blocked by alpha IR-3 or removed by B-10 immunoprecipitation or insulin affinity chromatography, the hormone-displacement patterns for 125I-IGF-I binding resemble those of the atypical insulin/MSA-binding sites.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) mRNA was increased in two of eight neuroblastomas and in eight of eight pheochromocytomas, tumors of the adrenal medulla that occur in childhood and adulthood, respectively. RNA encoding the type I IGF receptor, the receptor thought to mediate the mitogenic effects of IGF-I and IGF-II, also was uniformly expressed in these cells. To assess the role of IGF-II in the growth of these tumor cells, we have used the SK-N-AS cultured neuroblastoma cell line, which can be continuously propagated in mitogen-free medium, as a model system. Our results strongly suggest that IGF-II, synthesized by SK-N-AS cells and acting through type I IGF receptors, contributes to the autonomous growth of this tumor cell line. (a) SK-N-AS cells synthesized large amounts of IGF-II RNA and secreted greater than 50 ng/ml of IGF-II (as determined by specific radioimmuno- and radioreceptor assays). Little, if any, IGF-I RNA or immunoreactive IGF-I were detected. (b) SK-N-AS cells possess type I IGF receptors. (c) Exogenous IGF-I and IGF-II stimulated DNA synthesis in SK-N-AS cells, and this stimulation was abolished by a blocking antibody to the type I IGF receptor. (d) This anti-receptor antibody also abolished the multiplication of SK-N-AS cells in the absence of added mitogens. We conclude that IGF-II is an autocrine growth factor for SK-N-AS cells and suggest that this mechanism may contribute to the growth of some adrenal medullary tumors.

Abstract
The biological actions of insulinlike growth factor I (IGF-I) measured under serum-free assay conditions were found to be significantly influenced by prior subculture conditions for adult human fibroblasts. Glucocorticoids seemed to be the major medium variable affecting IGF-I action. IGF-I added to serum-free cultures had little or no effect on [14C]aminoisobutyric acid uptake or [3H]thymidine incorporation in human fibroblasts previously maintained in media containing serum with low glucocorticoid levels or in serum stripped of endogenous steroids. However, a 48-h preincubation with dexamethasone resulted in a marked synergistic increase in IGF-I stimulation of [14C]aminoisobutyric acid uptake and [3H]thymidine incorporation in these cultures. In contrast, IGF-I in serum-free medium seemed to be a potent mitogenic and metabolic stimulus for human fibroblasts which had been subcultured in media with a high glucocorticoid content, either endogenous or supplemented. After these culture conditions, a 48-h preexposure to dexamethasone had no further enhancing effect on IGF-I action. Dexamethasone also potentiated IGF-I, insulin, and epidermal growth factor stimulation of fibroblast replication depending on the earlier subcultivation conditions. Thus, glucocorticoids are important modulators of IGF-I bioactivity in cultured human fibroblasts. Serum glucocorticoids can exert a profound influence on the biological phenomena measured in cell culture, even when the serum has been removed before the actual experiment, and must be carefully taken into account for accurate evaluation of the biological function of IGF-I and other growth factors.

Abstract
Pretreatment of confluent human fibroblast cultures for two days in dexamethasone, serum free medium increased 10-20 fold the sensitivity of the cells to insulin-like growth factor I (IGF I) stimulation of amino acid uptake using the amino acid analog alpha-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB). This increased sensitivity resulted both from the use of serum free medium and the addition of dexamethasone to the serum free media. Pretreatment of the cells for 1, 2, or 3 days before assay showed that the maximum increase in sensitivity was obtained after a two day pretreatment. Pretreatment of the cells also increased their sensitivity to insulin and bovine insulin-like growth factor II stimulation of AIB uptake similar to that seen for IGF I. No consistent effect of the pretreatment was observed on either the basal level of AIB uptake or the maximal hormonal stimulation of AIB uptake. Nor was any change noted in the shape of the dose response curves. Addition of IGF I to the pretreatment medium greatly reduced the sensitivity of pretreated cells. [125I]IGF I binding studies done on suspended fibroblasts indicated that there was up to a two fold increase in the number of receptors with no increase in their affinity for IGF I. Thus, pretreatment of fibroblasts with dexamethasone and serum free medium greatly enhances their sensitivity to IGF I stimulation of AIB uptake and makes this an excellent in vitro bioassay system for IGF I.

Abstract
This study investigates the effects of BP-53, the acid-stable IGF-binding subunit of the circulating 150 kDa IGF-binding protein complex, on IGF-I-stimulated thymidine incorporation by neonatal human skin fibroblasts. When cells were incubated for 24 h with IGF-I in serum-free medium, and thymidine incorporation studied over the final 4-h period, maximal stimulation (4- to 7-fold) was seen with 30 ng/ml IGF-I, with a half-maximal effect at 6.8 +/- 1.2 ng/ml (SD, n = 4). Co-incubation of IGF-I with increasing concentrations of pure BP-53 caused dose-dependent inhibition of IGF-I-stimulated thymidine incorporation, which was complete when IGF-I and BP-53 were equimolar. In contrast, preincubation of cells with BP-53 for 8-48 h before adding IGF-I resulted in a potentiation of the subsequent IGF-I effect. The potentiation was maximal (2-fold) at a BP-53 concentration of 150 ng/ml, and appeared to act by increasing the maximal rate of thymidine incorporation rather than the sensitivity of this process to IGF-I. Since neonatal fibroblasts produce a protein which is identical to BP-53 in size and immunoreactivity, these results suggest an autocrine role for BP-53 in regulating fibroblast responsiveness to IGF-I.
