The role of IGF-1/GH in the aging process and the development of age-related diseases

https://doi.org/10.14341/omet12934

Abstract

One of the most important trends in geroscience is the search for the biomechanisms of aging and geroprotective methods. In recent years, more and more attention has been paid to the role of age-related decline in IGF-1 levels; processes that start with a decrease in the activity of the GH/IGF-1 axis. IGF-1 levels correlate differently with many age-associated diseases: diabetes mellitus, cancer, cardiovascular disease. A decrease in the level of IGF-1 and growth hormone in the elderly can contribute to the deterioration of the course of some pathologies, and also have a protective effect in the occurrence of different nosologies. The possibility of slowing down aging with the help of IGF-1 in basic research led to research aimed at studying the possibility of using IGF-1 preparations and growth hormone in clinical practice to slow down aging. We have studied the literature on the Pubmed platform, Scopus for the past 10 years in order to find some new information regarding influence of IGF-1 on aging, about the association between IGF-1 levels and major age-related diseases. We analyzed data of publications on the role of IGF-1 in aging and the development of age-related diseases. The search was carried out using key words: IGF-1, growth hormone, aging, the review included data from more than 60 publications.
