Growth Enhancement of Transgenic Mice Expressing Human Insulin-Like Growth Factor I*

Abstract

A line of transgenic mice carrying a chimeric gene composed of human insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) coding sequences fused to the mouse metallothionein I promoter was generated to study the effects of chronically elevated exposure to IGF-I. Mice in this line overexpress IGF-I in most tissues studied and have circulating IGF-I levels 1.5 times the normal value. This results in a growth response manifested by a 1.3-fold increase in weight as a result of selective organomegaly without an apparent increase in skeletal growth. In addition, expression of the endogenous GH and IGF-I genes is inhibited. These results are consistent with IGF-I playing an important role in the control of somatic growth.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
