We describe the histological localization of embryonic and fetal tissues whose cells express the genes coding for insulin-like growth factors I and II (IGF-I and IGF-II) in the developing rat. Our studies span the period between early somite stages and full term. We have used oligodeoxyribonucleotide probes and obtained results which are both topographically precise and highly reproducible. The gene coding for IGF-II is predominant throughout development. It is strongly expressed in the liver and yolk sac. A variety of other tissues also expresses the IGF-II gene, especially many mesodermally derived structures in the process of differentiation. Many tissues do not express IGF genes. Thus no IGF mRNA was demonstrable in ectodermally derived structures, including the central and peripheral nervous systems as well as the skin and its derivatives.
