2 Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) enhances hyaluronic acid synthesis in rabbit pericardium. Hyaluronic Acid insulin-like growth factor I Oryctolagus cuniculus
3 (3) IGF-I stimulated the hyaluronic acid synthesis in pericardial cells in a dose-dependent manner, but did not significantly stimulate the sulfated glycosaminoglycan synthesis. Hyaluronic Acid insulin-like growth factor I Oryctolagus cuniculus
4 (4) The increase in the hyaluronic acid synthesis induced by IGF-I (100 ng/ml) or pericardial fluid was blocked by the copresence of monoclonal anti-IGF-I antibody. Hyaluronic Acid insulin-like growth factor I Oryctolagus cuniculus
5 (4) The increase in the hyaluronic acid synthesis induced by IGF-I (100 ng/ml) or pericardial fluid was blocked by the copresence of monoclonal anti-IGF-I antibody. Hyaluronic Acid insulin-like growth factor I Oryctolagus cuniculus
6 These results suggest a new biological action of IGF-I that stimulates hyaluronic acid synthesis in pericardium or the pericardial cavity of heart. Hyaluronic Acid insulin-like growth factor I Oryctolagus cuniculus
