1 Association of serum insulin-like growth factor-I and erythropoiesis in relation to body iron status. Iron insulin like growth factor 1 Homo sapiens
2 This study investigated the associations between serum insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) concentrations and erythropoietic activities in relation to body iron status. Iron insulin like growth factor 1 Homo sapiens
3 This study investigated the associations between serum insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) concentrations and erythropoietic activities in relation to body iron status. Iron insulin like growth factor 1 Homo sapiens
4 However, blood hemoglobin and serum iron concentrations averaged 13.4 +/- 0.8 g/dl and 93.7 +/- 41.2 microg/dl in the subjects with IGF-I >809 ng/ml, which were above the values in those with IGF-I <523 ng/ml (12.3 +/- 0.9 g/dl and 50.5 +/- 30.8 microg/dl, p < 0.05, respectively). Iron insulin like growth factor 1 Homo sapiens
5 Serum IGF-I correlated significantly with FEP (r = -0.45, p <0.05) and serum iron concentrations (r = 0.40, p <0.05) in iron deficient subjects. Iron insulin like growth factor 1 Homo sapiens
6 Serum IGF-I correlated significantly with FEP (r = -0.45, p <0.05) and serum iron concentrations (r = 0.40, p <0.05) in iron deficient subjects. Iron insulin like growth factor 1 Homo sapiens
7 In summary, IGF-I seems to have an important relationship to iron metabolism and protoporphyrin synthesis in adolescents. Iron insulin like growth factor 1 Homo sapiens
