Fasting Serum IGFBP-1 as a Marker of Insulin Resistance in Diverse School Age Groups. Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2022; 13:840361. [PMID: 35586622 PMCID: PMC9108162 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2022.840361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2021] [Accepted: 03/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction The known markers of insulin resistance in obese children are well studied. However, they require serial measurements and complicated calculations. The objective is to study IGFBP-1 and its relation with other known risk measures. Materials and Methods The study included 98 New York City school students of diverse ethnic/racial backgrounds (57 males and 41 females), 11-15 years of age. Subjects were enrolled in a cross-sectional study, and anthropometric measures were collected. They underwent fasting intravenous glucose tolerance tests (IVGTT), and glucose, insulin, lipids, IGFBP-1, adiponectin and inflammatory markers were collected. Results The subjects were stratified into 3 groups based upon the BMI Z-score. Out of all the subjects, 65.3% were in the group with a BMI Z-score <1 SDS, 16.3% subjects were in the group with a BMI Z-score of 1 to 2 SDS, and 18.4% of the subjects were in the group with a BMI Z-score of more than 2 SDS. The group with a BMI Z-score of more than 2 SDS had increased waist circumference (WC), body fat, increased fasting insulin, and triglycerides (TG). This group had decreased levels of adiponectin and HDL and low IGFBP-1 as compared to the group with BMI <1 SDS. The group with a BMI Z-score of 1 to 2 SDS had a decreased level of IGFBP-1 as compared to the group with a BMI Z-score less than 1 SDS. IGFBP-1 inversely correlated with age, WC, BMI, body fat, TG, and insulin levels. IGFBP-1 positively correlated with adiponectin and HDL levels. Conclusion IGFBP-1 in children can identify the presence of insulin resistance in the group with BMI 1 to 2 SDS, even before the known markers of insulin resistance such as elevated triglycerides and even before decreased HDL and adiponectin levels are identified.

Growth Horm IGF Res 2018; 39:1-5. [PMID: 29150385 DOI: 10.1016/j.ghir.2017.11.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2017] [Revised: 11/09/2017] [Accepted: 11/09/2017] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Obese children are often taller than age-matched subjects. Reports on GH and IGF-I levels in obese individuals are controversial, with normal and reduced GH-IGF-I levels having been reported in this group of patients. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyse insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF-IR) mRNA expression in obese children. METHODS Forty-seven pre-pubertal children were included in this study: 29 were obese and taller than their target height, and 18 were normal eutrophic controls. Fasting blood samples were collected for IGF-IR mRNA expression in isolated lymphocytes and serum IGF-I, ALS, IGFBP-3, and IGFBP-1 concentration analysis. RESULTS Relative IGF-IR gene expression (2-ΔΔCT) was significantly (P=0.025) higher in obese children (median 1.87) than in controls (1.15). Fourteen of the 29 obese subjects showed 2-ΔΔCT values greater than or equal to 2, while only 2 individuals in the control group showed values above 2 (P=0.01). Obese children showed significantly (P=0.01) higher IGF-I concentrations than the control group (237ng/ml and 144ng/ml, respectively). Among obese patients, 65.5% had IGF-I values above the 75 percentile of the control group (P=0.02). ALS concentration was significantly (P=0.04) higher in the obese group, while IGFBP-3 levels were similar in obese and control children. IGFBP-1 concentration was lower in obese children, while insulin levels and HOMA-IR index were higher than in controls. CONCLUSIONS The higher IGF-IR mRNA expression observed in obese children, associated with the higher IGF-I and ALS and the lower IGFBP-1 levels, suggest that the higher stature observed in these children may be due to increased IGF-I bioactivity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare fasting insulin-like growth factor binding protein 1 (IGFBP-1) to other fasting indices as a surrogate marker of insulin sensitivity and resistance calculated from a 3-hour oral glucose tolerance test (oGTT). METHODS Fasting IGFBP-1 and oGTT were performed at 0 (n = 77), 52 (n = 54), and 100 (n = 38) weeks in a study investigating metformin treatment of obesity in adolescents. Insulin area-under-the-curve (IAUC) and the composite insulin sensitivity index (CISI) calculated from the oGTT were compared to fasting IGFBP-1, homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance, and corrected insulin release at the glucose peak (CIRgp). RESULTS IGFBP-1 and the ratio of IGFBP-1 to fasting insulin were significantly correlated with indices based on timed sampling, including IAUC, CISI, and CIRgp. In addition, a significant effect of IGFBP-1, but not IGFBP-1 to insulin at time zero, was observed for IAUC and CISI. CONCLUSION Our results indicate that fasting IGFBP-1 may be a useful marker of insulin sensitivity and secretion.

Abstract
Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) are peptide hormones that have significant structural homology with insulin. IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs), in particular IGFBP-1, are important determinants of IGF activity such as enhancing peripheral glucose uptake, decreasing hepatic glucose output and modifying lipid metabolism. Herein factors which alter IGFBP-1 and the utility of measuring IGFBP-1 are considered as the role of IGFBP-1 is explored within the context of insulin resistance and the development of cardiovascular disease.
