IGF-I increases markers of osteoblastic activity and reduces bone resorption via osteoprotegerin and RANK-ligand

BACKGROUND: Bone is one of the major target tissues for Insulin-like Growth Factor I (IGF-I). Low doses of IGF-I were able to improve liver-associated osteopenia. In the present work, a model of partial IGF-I deficiency was used in order to provide insight into the mechanisms of the beneficial actio...
