The IGF/IGFBP system in relation to macroscopic bone architecture in pediatric renal transplant patients

The post-transplant bone disease of the peripheral skeleton in pediatric renal transplant recipients is characterized by an inadequately thin bone cortex in relation to muscular force. A major hormonal modulator of periosteal growth is the insulin-like growth factor (IGF)/IGF binding protein (IGFBP)...

Zusammenfassung:The post-transplant bone disease of the peripheral skeleton in pediatric renal transplant recipients is characterized by an inadequately thin bone cortex in relation to muscular force. A major hormonal modulator of periosteal growth is the insulin-like growth factor (IGF)/IGF binding protein (IGFBP) system. We therefore hypothesized that the reduced cortical thickness in these patients may be due to functional IGF deficiency.
