Serum IGF1 and insulin levels in girls with normal and precocious puberty
Research output: Contribution to journal › Journal article › Research › peer-review
IGF1 plays an important role in growth and metabolism during puberty. IGF1 levels are increased in girls with central precocious puberty (CPP). However, the relationship with insulin before and during gonadal suppression is unknown. In addition, the influence of the exon 3-deleted GH receptor gene (GHRd3) on IGF1 levels was evaluated.
