Abstract excerpt
The mouse adipogenic cell line 1246 which possesses both insulin and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) receptors was used to investigate the role of IGF-I and insulin on the proliferation of adipocyte precursors and their differentiation into mature adipocytes. Results indicate that both insulin and IGF-I stimulate the proliferation of the 1246 adipocyte precursors with IGF-I being slightly more potent than...
