Expression of insulin‐like growth factor I (IGF‐I) was studied during time in the callus formed after tibial fracture in rats. Levels of IGF‐I mRNA in callus peaked on the day 8 postfracture, showing a 10‐ to 15‐fold induction compared to control bone. Levels of IGF‐I mRNA tended also to be increased in the fracture‐adjacent musculus tibialis anterior. IGF‐I immunoreactivity was found in cartilaginous cells, osteoblasts, and myocytes 6 and 8 days after fracture. No obvious differences were found between hypophysectomized animals and control animals with regard to IGF‐I immunoreactivity. Administration of the antiinflammatory drug indomethacin decreased the IGF‐I mRNA expression in the tibial fracture model. Previous findings have shown that IGF‐I is activated during in vivo muscle regeneration, and also in this model indomethacin administration reduces the expression of IGF‐I. The finding that indomethacin administration reduces IGF‐I expression could indicate that an inflammatory response may be important for activation of IGF‐I during tissue regeneration.
