Abstract:

Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) is one of the most important and extensive functional cytokines the body. It can promote growth and development, substance metabolism, cell differentiation and proliferation. The amino acid sequence of IGF-1 is homologous to insulin, so it has hypoglycemic effect similar to insulin. Previous studies have shown that serum IGF-1 levels are lower in the people with diabetes than those in the people without diabetes. At the same time, IGF-1 can stimulate thyroid function directly or indirectly, and it can affect iodine uptake and organic synthesis together with the thyrotropin (TSH), leading to abnormal thyroid function. In recent years, the incidence of thyroid disease in patients with diabetes is increasing year by year. This paper reviews the research progress of the correlation between IGF-1 levels and thyroid diseases in diabetic patients.

Key words: Diabetes mellitus, Insulin-like growth factor 1, Thyroid diseases
