Increased diet-induced fatty streak formation in female mice with deficiency of liver-derived insulin-like growth factor-I

The role of endocrine IGF-I for atherosclerosis is unclear. We determined the importance of circulating, liver-derived IGF-I for fatty streak formation in mice. Mice with adult, liver-specific IGF-I inactivation (LI-IGF-I(−/−) mice, serum IGF-I reduced by approximately 80 %) and control mice receive...
