A highly sensitive and specific RIA for IGF-I has been developed using recombinant DNA-derived IGF-I of very high purity and specific antiserum to it. This assay system could detect IGF-I at as low concentrations as 20-30 ng/ml. The intra-assay and interassay coefficients of variation at various concentrations of IGF-I were 4.9 to 6.5% and 5.4 to 8.0%, respectively. The recovery rate of pure IGF-I added to plasma was 77.0 +/- 3.7%. The antiserum did not cross-react with porcine insulin, biosynthetic human insulin, hGH, hEGF, the synthetic C-domain of IGF-I or that of IGF-II, but reacted equally with an analog, Thr59-IGF-I. Plasma IGF-I was extracted by the acid-ethanol method before assay to separate IGF-I from its binding protein. When plasma IGF-I was assayed without extraction, the inhibition curves of serial dilution of plasma samples from several individuals were not parallel to the standard curve of IGF-I. The plasma concentration of IGF-I was 147 +/- 49 ng/ml (mean +/- SD) in 156 normal adults aged from 20-59 years. As reported by others, the IGF-I levels were low in cord plasma (41.8 +/- 23.5 ng/ml) and plasma of patients with GH deficiency (64.6 +/- 42.0 ng/ml), while its levels were high in normal children of pubertal ages (12-13 yr, 365 +/- 126 ng/ml) and in patients with active acromegaly (562 +/- 115 ng/ml). This RIA system is a simple and useful method for determining plasma IGF-I in normal and diseased states.
