In retinal endothelial cells, tests including low-IGFBP-affinity des(1‑3)IGF-I indicated that IGF-I interaction with IGFBP-5 was necessary for IGFBP-5 detachment.
In plain wordsIn cells, tests with des(1‑3)IGF-I indicated that IGF-I must interact with IGFBP-5 to detach it from binding sites.

Source sentences
Studies using an antibody (alpha IR3) against the IGF-I receptor, and compounds with low affinity for IGFBPs, such as insulin and des(1-3)IGF-I, showed that an interaction between IGF-I and IGFBP-5 was necessary to detach this IGFBP from its binding sites.
1 context sentence(design, population, supporting numbers)
We investigated the effects of IGF-I and increased glucose concentrations on the release of IGFBPs and the growth of human retinal endothelial cells (HRECs).
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. This result is not evidence about taking IGF-1 DES (des(1-3)IGF-I).
