Abstract Insulin-like growth factor 1 IGF-1 has poor anabolic efficacy in cartilage in osteoarthritis OA partly because of its sequestration by abnormally high levels of extracellular IGF-binding proteins IGFBPs . We studied the effect of NBI-31772 a small molecule that inhibits the binding of IGF-1 to IGFBPs on the restoration of proteoglycan synthesis by human OA chondrocytes. IGFBPs secreted by human OA cartilage or cultured chondrocytes were analyzed by western ligand blot. The ability of NBI-31772 to displace IGF-1 from IGFBPs was measured by radiobinding assay. Anabolic responses in primary cultured chondrocytes were assessed by measuring the synthesis of proteoglycans in cetylpyridinium-chloride-precipitable fractions of cell-associated and secreted 35S-labeled macromolecules. The penetration of NBI-31772 into cartilage was measured by its ability to displace 125I-labeled IGF-1 from cartilage IGFBPs. We found that
