| Abstract |
Imaginal disc growth factor (IDGF) is a soluble polypeptide growth factor that was first identified from the conditioned medium of Drosophilia imaginal disc C1.8+ cells. Working with insulin, IDGF stimulated the growth of cultured imaginal disk cells, which suggested that IDGF might function as a cofactor of Drosophila insulin or insulin like peptide. Here we report a new member of the IDGF family, named MbIDGF, from the cabbage armyworm, Mamestra brassicae. Using a cloned cDNA of MbIDGF, recombinant MbIDGF protein was expressed in baculovirus-infected Sf9 cells and purified. Without insulin, the recombinant MbIDGF protein stimulated cell growth of SES-MaBr-4 and NIAS-MaBr-93 cell lines that were derived from the fat bodies and hemocytes of M. brassicae, in a dose-dependent manner. The saturation of growth stimulation by MbIDGF was attained for the two types of cells at 80 ng/ml (0.8 nM) and 300 ng/ml (6 nM), respectively. The results suggest that MbIDGF may stimulate the growth of lepidopteran cells by a new mechanism without associating with the insulin pathway.
