- Hyperglycaemia and increased variability of blood glucose in pubertal children with type 1 diabetes may be related to increased growth hormone (GH) secretion and insulin resistance. The role of changes in insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) bioavailability for the glycaemic control in these patients has not been completely elucidated. In particular, the possible role of increased IGF binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) proteolysis reported in other insulin resistant states awaits further characterization. The aims of this study were to assess if hyperglycaemia in children with type 1 diabetes was associated with changes in free dissociable IGF-I (fdIGF-I) and IGF binding protein-3 protease activity (IGFBP-3-PA) and if increased insulin resistance during puberty was associated with changes in IGFBP-3-PA in healthy and diabetic children. In diabetic boys in the period of maximal linear growth (Tanner stage 3, n = 5), the mean level and the variability of IGFBP-3-PA, determined every second hour throughout 24 h, were significantly higher both compared to postpubertal diabetic boys (n = 6; P = 0.003 and P = 0.001, respectively), and to age matched healthy boys (n = 4; P = 0.006 and P < 0.001 respectively). This activation of IGFBP-3-PA was most prominent during the day time. The mean 24 h blood glucose level (determined hourly) was the only parameter studied that significantly predicted the changes in mean 24 h IGFBP-3-PA in the diabetes group. The mean 24 h concentrations of fdIGF-I were decreased in the diabetic boys compared to the healthy controls but statistical significance was only achieved in Tanner Stage 5 (p = 0.03). We speculate that the elevated levels of IGFBP-3-PA in Tanner 3 diabetic boys are related to deteriorated glucose homeostasis and that it may be a compensatory mechanism to attenuate the decrease in fdIGF-I in order to partly restore insulin sensitivity and glycemic control.

- The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the diurnal variability of B-Glucose is dependent on GH, IGF-I and IGFBP-1 levels, apart from insulin, and if there is any difference between Tanner stages 3 and 5. Five boys in Tanner stage 3 and 6 boys in stage 5 with type 1 diabetes were included. Blood was continuously collected from a cubital vein for 24 h. S-Insulin, S-GH, S-IGF-I and S-IGFBP-1 were analysed. B-Glucose was analysed hourly at bedside. One week before and 1 wk after the 24-h study period the participants performed self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) during normal physiologic conditions. In the 24-h profile of B-Glucose, insulin, IGFBP-1 and GH, we found a significant positive correlation between B-Glucose and log IGFBP-1 (r = 0.5, p = 0.005) and an inverse correlation to insulin (r = -0.5, p = 0.004) but no correlation to logGH (r = -0.04, p = 0.831). In multiple regression analysis, B-Glucose was still significantly correlated to log IGFBP-1, when adjusting for insulin and GH, in Tanner stage 5. We found a difference between Tanner stages 3 and 5 in the variability of B-Glucose over a longer period during normal daily activity (p = 0.02), but not over the 24-h study period. CONCLUSION: We have demonstrated in type 1 diabetes adolescent boys a relationship between simultaneously measured blood-glucose and IGFBP-1 levels independent of the insulin and GH levels, suggesting that the free fraction of IGF-I influences the glucose metabolism.
