Research Abstract |
IGFBP-1 gene polymorphism (A4403G) was analyzed in children with idiopathic short stature and the association of its genotype with blood IGFBP-1 or free IGF-I levels was evaluated. The results showed no significant association between A4403G genotype and blood free IGF-I levels, suggesting that the differences in the binding ability of IGFBP-1 for circulating IGF-I was unlikely to explain the etiology of idiopathic short children.
