- Abstract: High expressions of IGF Ⅱ mRNA and protein were demonstrated by RT PCR and IRMA analysis in tumor tissue of a patient with non islet cell tumor induced hypoglycaemia (NICTH). Northern blotting results displayed abundant 6.0, 5.3, 5.0, 4.8 kb IGF Ⅱ transcripts in the tumor. It suggests that autosecretive production of IGF Ⅱ of the tumor plays an important role in the pathogenesis of tumor induced hypoglycemia.
