Insulin-like growth factor 1 transport protein deficiency

The deficiency of IGF transport protein is an autosomal recessive disorder. It is characterized by mild growth and developmental delay which cannot be improved by growth hormone (GH) substitution. Characteristically, GH application is not followed by an increase of IGF in plasma.
