Abstract
In subjects of normal weight with type 2 diabetes, baseline IGF-II concentration is inversely related to future weight gain, independent of treatment effect, strengthening the putative role for IGF-II in regulating fat mass. We propose that IGF-II measurement has potential utility in this group for targeting such individuals for early intervention.
