Insulin and insulin-like growth factors (IGF) I and II have receptors in osteoblastic cells and stimulate both their proliferation and activity in vitro. Insulin probably has no effect on osteoblast precursors. Osteoclast formation is induced by IGF-I in vitro, and IGF-I may affect bone (re)modeling in vivo.
