Intracerebroventricular injection of RFRP-3 delays puberty onset and stimulates growth hormone secretion in female rats
BACKGROUND Puberty onset is a complex, organized biological process with multilevel regulation, and its physiopathological mechanisms are yet to be elucidated. RFRP-3, the mammalian ortholog to gonadotropin-inhibitory hormone, is implicated in inhibiting the synthesis and release of gonadotropin in mammals. However, it is unclear whether RFRP-3 participates in regulating pubertal development. ...
متن کاملRT-PCR MEDIATED CLONING OF HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE GENE AND I TS EXPRESSION IN E. coli
Human growth hormone (hGH) genomic sequence containing 5 exons and 4 introns was cloned in pcDNA-3 and the constructed plasmid was subsequently used for transfection ofNlli-3T3 cell line using lipofection technique. Expression of hGH in stably transfected cells was assayed using ELISA. Total RNA was extracted from transfected cells and hGH cDNA was amplified by RT-PCR using specific primers...
متن کاملAssociation between growth hormone gene polymorphisms and growth traits in Cyprinus carpio from the Caspian Sea
Growth hormone (GH) is the most important hormone that controls somatic cell growth and the syntheses of protein, fat, and carbohydrates. This study was to identify gene polymorphism of GH-1 using PCR- single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) technique and its association with growth traits including condition factor (CF), body weight (BW) and total length (TL) in common carp (Cyprinus ca...
متن کاملA boy with "transient" growth hormone deficiency in prepubertal stage despite normal growth hormone secretion in childhood and after puberty.
Transient growth hormone deficiency (GHD) is occasionally found in prepubertal individuals, and this phenomenon has been variously interpreted. Sex steroids enhance GH secretion; however, the cut-off values of provocative GH tests are not modified according to the physiological changes. Physiological changes in sex steroid levels are thought to cause the image of transient GHD. In addition, the...
متن کاملState of human growth hormone in plasma and changes in stored solutions of pituitary growth hormone.
Radioimmunoassay of endogenous plasma growth hormone in human plasma fractions separated by starch gel electrophoresis shows that the plasma hormone migrates in a fairly narrow peak behind serum albumin. A similar electrophoretic mobility is exhibited by certain pituitary growth hormone preparations (the A type of Wilhehni), added to plasma in physiological concentrations or on electrophoresis ...
