The possibility that sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-stable complexes of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) and its binding proteins (IGF-BP) exist in rat serum has been examined by using SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) followed by both [125I]IGF-I ligand blotting and immunoblotting with antisera directed against either IGF-BP3 or IGF-I. While ligand blotting of rat serum only revealed free IGF-BP subunits (Mr≈ 50, 35, and 30 kDa, immunoblotting with either the IGF-BP3 antiserum or IGF-I antiserum revealed major immunoreactive bands with higher molecular weights (>110, ≈100, and ≈84 kDa). The IGF-BP3 antiserum also stained the 50-kDa form of the serum IGF-BP. Specifically stained protein bands were identified by comparison with control immunoblots incubated with normal rabbit serum. Treating the serum with 0.1 n HCl prior to electrophoresis reduced the amount of high molecular weight IGF-BP3 immunoreactive species, with a concomitant increase in the amount of the 50-kDa form. A similar result was obtained if the samples were boiled prior to electrophoresis. These data indicate that not all IGF-BP IGF complexes may dissociate under normal SDS-PAGE conditions. Therefore, data obtained by using ligand blotting alone may underestimate the amount of total IGF-BP present, especially if the mixture being analyzed also contains large amounts of IGF.
