OBJECTIVE: Patients with acromegaly exhibit reduced life expectancy and increased
prevalence of age-related diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, and
cardiovascular disease. However, the underlying mechanism has not been fully
elucidated. Telomere shortening is reportedly associated with reduced life
expectancy and increased prevalence of these age-related diseases. METHODS: We
measured telomere length in patients with acromegaly using quantitative PCR
method. The effect of GH and IGF-I on telomere length and cellular senescence was
examined in human skin fibroblasts. RESULTS: Patients with acromegaly exhibited
shorter telomere length than age-, sex-, smoking-, and diabetes-matched control
patients with non-functioning pituitary adenoma (0.62 ± 0.23 vs. 0.75 ± 0.35,
respectively, P = 0.047). In addition, telomere length in acromegaly was
negatively correlated with the disease duration (R2 = 0.210, P = 0.003). In vitro
analysis revealed that not GH but IGF-I induced telomere shortening in human skin
fibroblasts. Furthermore, IGF-I-treated cells showed increased
senescence-associated ?-galactosidase activity and expression of p53 and p21
protein. IGF-I-treated cells reached the Hayflick limit earlier than GH- or
vehicle-treated cells, indicating that IGF-I induces cellular senescence.
CONCLUSION: Shortened telomeres in acromegaly and cellular senescence induced by
IGF-I can explain, in part, the underlying mechanisms by which acromegaly
exhibits an increased morbidity and mortality in association with the excess
secretion of IGF-I.
