OCA15. Annotation of the output with contextual information concerning the description of creative process and the content of the research/artistic/other activity, etc.Amniotic fluid (AF) collected from ewes and goats at mid gestation displayed mitogenic activity in mouse fibroblasts. Upon fractionation of this material by size exclusion chromatography, the mitogenic activity was resolved into two peaks, whose activity was inhibited by an anti-IGF type 1 receptor blocking antibody. One of the peaks contained IGF-I and IGF-II (mature form), whereas the other contained high Mr precursor forms of IGF-II. The presence in this latter fraction of IGF-binding proteins (IGFBP) suggests that the AF IGFBPs do not efficiently inhibit the mitogenic activity of the high Mr forms of IGF-II. In agreement with this conclusion, exogenous IGFBP-1 failed to affect this activity. Analysis of IGF-II in sheep AF showed that the AF concentrations of both forms of IGF-II increased dramatically from mid pregnancy until 106–120 days of gestation, and fell thereafter. The amniotic IGFBPs followed a similar evolution. High Mr forms of IGF-II were also found in human AF, with a pattern of electrophoretic migration different from that of sheep. We suggest that the precursor forms of IGF-II may play an important role in foetal development.
