    In cultured human granulosa cells, des(1‑3)IGF-I significantly stimulated E2 production, comparably to FSH in the tested dose range.

    Summary
    Both IGF-I and des(1-3)IGF-I significantly (p < 0.001) stimulate E2 production by human GC in culture in a manner comparable to that of FSH in the dose range used.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I).

    In human granulosa cells, IGFBP-3 preincubation did not reduce the stimulatory effect of des(1‑3)IGF-I.

    In plain wordsIn cells, IGFBP-3 preincubation did not reduce the des(1‑3)IGF-I effect compared with no preincubation.

    Summary
    Preincubation for 2 h at 22 C with IGFBP-3, to allow the formation of the IGF-IGFBP complex, drastically reduced the stimulatory effect of IGF-I but not that of des(1-3)IGF-I.
