Gene

IGF1

IGF1 makes insulin-like growth factor 1, a hormone involved in growth and tissue repair. The rs35767 region has a small association with circulating total IGF-1, but the marker may only tag the responsible change. It cannot determine a person's IGF-1 level, growth, tissue repair, disease risk, or treatment needs.
