Influence of the IGFBP3-202A/C Gene Polymorphism on Clinical Features and Surgery Outcome in Acromegalic Patients
Purpose: Excess growth hormone (GH) secretion in acromegaly patients results in increased levels of IGF-1 expression, which causes the clinical manifestations of acromegaly. IGF-1 levels are attenuated by IGFBP3, and a polymorphism in the promoter of IGFBP3 is known to affect the circulating level o...
