Abstract
In this chapter we describe pharmacokinetic studies with IGF-I in children, once biosynthetic IGF-I became available. The biochemical and hormonal effects upon short-term administration and growth promoting effects upon long-term treatment are summarized. It was found that IGF-I is a potent anabolic and growth stimulating hormone. Our results are compared with those obtained by other investigators. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2011.
