Growth hormone (GH) and IGFs have a long and distinguished history in
diabetes, with possible participation in the development of renal
complications. To investigate the effect of a newly developed GH receptor
(GHR) antagonist (G120K-PEG) on renal/glomerular hypertrophy and urinary
albumin excretion (UAE), streptozotocin-induced diabetic and nondiabetic
mice were injected with G120K-PEG every 2nd day for 28 days.
Placebo-treated diabetic and nondiabetic animals were used as reference
groups. Placebo-treated diabetic animals were characterized by growth
retardation, hyperphagia, hyperglycemia, increased serum GH levels, reduced
serum IGF-I, IGF-binding protein (IGFBP)-3, and liver IGF-I levels,
increased kidney IGF-I, renal/glomerular hypertrophy, and increased UAE
when compared with nondiabetic animals. No differences were seen between
the two diabetic groups with respect to body weight, food intake, blood
glucose, serum GH, IGF-I, and IGFBP-3 levels or hepatic IGF-I levels.
Kidney IGF-I, kidney weight, and glomerular volume were normalized, while
the rise in UAE was partially attenuated in the G120K-PEG-treated diabetic
animals. No effect of G120K-PEG treatment on any of the parameters
mentioned above was seen in nondiabetic animals. In conclusion,
administration of a GHR antagonist in diabetic mice has renal effects
without affecting metabolic control and circulating levels of GH, IGF-I, or
IGFBP-3, thus indicating that the effect of G120K-PEG may be mediated
through a direct inhibitory effect on renal IGF-I through the renal GHR.
The present study suggests that specific GHR blockade may present a new
concept in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease.
