Three days after unilateral hypoxic-ischemic injury in infant rats insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) production by astrocytes was enhanced in the injured region. This was associated with increased expression of mRNA for IGF binding protein-3 but not for binding protein-1. In adult rats a single lateral cerebroventricular injection of IGF-1 two hours following a similar injury markedly reduced neuronal loss. It is suggested that endogenous IGF-1 is neurotrophic and that centrally administered IGF-1 may have therapeutic potential for brain injury.
