IGF-1 and Heart Muscle Hyperplasia
1) Will IGF-1 perpetuate an increase or a decrease in blood pressure, or will it have no effect.
2) Also, due to IGF-1's ability to induce hyperplasia, is it not possible, if not probable, that it could lead to hyperplasia in heart muscle cells as well, and then combined with AAS, cause an enlargement or thickening of the heart muscle?
I assume that #2 depends a great deal on the dose/response relationship, but is it still nonetheless possible if not probable?
