2003 article

Insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and IGF binding proteins-2, -3, -4, -5 in porcine corpora lutea during the estrous cycle; evidence for inhibitory actions of IGFBP-3

Ge, Z., Miller, E., Nicholson, W., Hedgpeth, V., & Gadsby, J. (2003, July 31). Domestic Animal Endocrinology, Vol. 25, pp. 183–197.

By: Z. Ge n, E. Miller n, W. Nicholson n, V. Hedgpeth n & J. Gadsby n 

author keywords: IGF-I; IGFBP-3; progesterone; corpus luteum; pig
MeSH headings : Animals; Blotting, Western / veterinary; Corpus Luteum / chemistry; Corpus Luteum / metabolism; Estrous Cycle / metabolism; Female; Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein 3 / metabolism; Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Proteins / analysis; Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Proteins / metabolism; Insulin-Like Growth Factor I / analysis; Insulin-Like Growth Factor I / metabolism; Progesterone / metabolism; Radioimmunoassay / veterinary; Swine / physiology
topics (OpenAlex): Growth Hormone and Insulin-like Growth Factors; Reproductive Physiology in Livestock; Reproductive Biology and Fertility
TL;DR: It is concluded that IGFBP-3 inhibits IGF-I actions in the porcine CL in the estrous cycle and inhibited the steroidogenic actions of IGF, but had no significant actions alone. (via Semantic Scholar)

2003 article

Steroidogenic responses of pig corpora lutea to insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) throughout the oestrous cycle

Miller, E. A., Ge, Z., Hedgpeth, V., & Gadsby, J. E. (2003, February 1). Reproduction, Vol. 125, pp. 241–249.

topics (OpenAlex): Reproductive Physiology in Livestock; Growth Hormone and Insulin-like Growth Factors; Genetic and phenotypic traits in livestock
TL;DR: IGF-I has steroidogenic actions only on 'young' (days 4-7) pig corpora lutea; endogenous IGF-I and IGFBP are insufficient to modulate progesterone secretion in vitro; and the steroidsogenic actions of IGF- I are mediated via PI-3-kinase. (via Semantic Scholar)

TL;DR: PGF(2alpha)-induced premature luteolysis was associated with an increase in steady-state levels of IGF-IR mRNA, but it did not appear to be linked to changes in mRNA levels for IGF-I or IGFBP-3. (via Semantic Scholar)
