METHOD OF TREATING RENAL DISEASE BY ADMINISTERING IGF-I AND IGFBP-3

摘要

Treatment with IGF7/IGFBP-3 complex increases renal tubular mass and potentiates and/or stimulates kidney function in subjects suffering from acute and chronic renal failure or insufficiency resulting from such disorders as glomerulonephritis, glomerulosclerosis, interstitial nephritis, acute tubular necroses dne to ischemia and drug-induced toxicity, diabetic and autoimmune nephropathies and renal dysfunction due to acute and chronic rejection episodes in post-transplantation patients.
