We report the generation of a murine IGF-1 monoclonal antibody designated 35I17, which exhibits unique cross-species reactivity. The antibody recognizes recombinant human and rat IGF-1 in ELISA, Western blots, and in an 125I-recombinant human IGF-1 Scintillation Proximity Assay. In addition, 35I17 blocks cell proliferation induced by recombinant human and rat IGF-1, and inhibits cell proliferation induced by sera from human, rat, calf, dog, goat, or mouse. The antibody inhibits rat IGF-1 binding to IGF-1 receptors, and prevents IGF-1-stimulated receptor and IRS-1 phosphorylation in LISN C4 cells, an IGF-1 receptor-transfected cell line. The cross-species and neutralizing properties of 35I17 may be useful in in vitro and in vivo animal studies for elucidating the role of IGF-1 in cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, and other diseases.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007334 Insulin-Like Growth Factor I A well-characterized basic peptide believed to be secreted by the liver and to circulate in the blood. It has growth-regulating, insulin-like, and mitogenic activities. This growth factor has a major, but not absolute, dependence on GROWTH HORMONE. It is believed to be mainly active in adults in contrast to INSULIN-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR II, which is a major fetal growth factor.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.
