Associations between insulin-like growth factor binding protein-2 and lipoprotein kinetics in men.

ABSTRACT: Low circulating concentrations of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-2 (IGFBP-2) have been associated with dyslipidemia, notably with high triglyceride (TG) levels. However, the determinants by which IGFBP-2 influences lipoprotein metabolism, especially that of TG-rich lipoproteins (TRLs), are poorly understood. Here, we aimed to assess the relationships between IGFBP-2 levels and lipoprotein production and catabolism in human subjects. Fasting IGFBP-2 concentrations were measured in the plasma of 219 men pooled from previous lipoprotein kinetics studies. We analyzed production rate and fractional catabolic rates of TRLapoB-48, and LDL-, IDL-, and VLDLapoB-100 by multicompartmental modeling of l-[5,5,5-D3] leucine enrichment data after a 12 h primed constant infusion in individuals
