مستخلص: |
Chapter 20 of the book "Nutrition in Pediatrics: Basic Science & Clinical Applications" is presented. It discusses the structural homology of insulin and the insulin-like growth factors. It illustrates how a substance with predominantly nutrient-transporting properties, which is found in even primitive unicellular organisms, has evolved to regulate highly differentiated functions. It analyzes growth hormone in malnutrition and cortisol in intestinal maturation. |
