ABSTRACT
Objective To study the distribution of insulin-like Growth Factors (IGFs) in liver、 spleen、kidney、thymus and supraadrenal glands of fetus from 16 to 24 weeks.Method Using ABC immunohistochemistry. Results IGF-I positive cells were found in these organs during this period of fetal life, but the differences of number and reaction intensity of IGF-I positive cells appeared in different organs and individuals.Conclusion These organs tissues can express IGF-I during fetal development and play paracrine and/or autocrine role in cellular proliferation and differentiation of these fetal tissue.
