Recombinant, human insulin-like growth factor-I (70 amino acids) expressed in E. coli. Has about 40% homology to insulin and produces metabolic effects similar to insulin. Acts as an important local regulator of bone formation. Increases bone formation and bone resorption. Also inhibits etoposide-induced apoptosis in BALB/c 3T3 cells. Stimulates the activity of protein tyrosine kinases in both normal and diethylstilbestrol-treated hamster kidneys. Primarily involved in response of cells to growth hormones.
