Background: Growth spurt is a major event in central precocious puberty (CPP). GnRH analogue (GnRHa) therapy inhibits gonadal axis and decreases height velocity. However, serum IGF1 and IGFBP-3 remain high as before therapy. Reports on IGF type 1 receptor (IGF1R) in CPP are yet unavailable.Aim: To study IGF1R mRNA expression in girls with CPP before and during GnRHa therapy.Methods: 34 girls with CPP were studied. Sixteen of them (...
