IGF Binding Protein - 3; IGFBP-3(R105)
Also Known As:
IgF Binding Protein-3 (IGFBP-3)
IGFBP-3
About This Test
Low IGFBP-3 levels are observed in Growth hormone (GH) deficiency / resistance. Elevated levels indicate a sustained overproduction of GH or excessive recombinant human Growth hormone (rhGH) injections. This assay is useful for diagnosing growth disorders and adult GH deficiency. It is also used to monitor rhGH treatment. This test can also be used as an adjunct to IGF-1 & GH in the diagnosis and followup of Acromegaly & Gigantism.

IGFBP-3 is the main binding protein for Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) in the blood. It regulates IGF-1 availability to tissues and is closely linked to growth hormone (GH) activity. Measuring IGFBP-3 can provide insights into growth, endocrine disorders, and metabolic health.
TAT Policy
The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:
- Registration date and time
- Type of scan or test
- Scan time or sample collection time
In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
