1 lis 2011 · Circulating insulin-like growth factor type 1 (IGF-1) concentrations in dogs have been correlated with standard breed bodyweight (SBBW or breed size). Thyroid and somatotropic functions, which have common effects and regulatory mechanisms, were investigated in hypothyroid dogs.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the performance characteristics of an automated immunoassay for canine insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) measurement and to investigate the possible effects of some sources of variation, such as diurnal variations, feeding/fasting cycles, and glucocorticoid administration, in dogs.
IGF-1 is very stable and no special sampling procedures are required. IGF-1 may be used to diagnose pituitary dwarfism and acromegaly in cats and dogs and in monitoring dietary sufficiency (objective documentation of malnourishment).
1 mar 1984 · The mean IGF I level in a group of dogs with growth hormone (GH) elevation was 700 ± 90 ng/ml. Though this group of dogs comprised both small and large dogs, the mean IGF I level significantly differed from the one found in German Shepherds, the largest breed studied ( P < 0.01).
1 cze 2018 · In the present study, we measured IGF-1 and 26SP in serum of healthy dogs and dogs with chronic diseases and set them in relationship to the BCS to evaluate the potential of IGF-1 and 26SP for detection of anabolic and catabolic states in dogs.
