Chicken GHR natural antisense transcript regulates GHR mRNA in LMH cells
Growth hormone receptor (GHR) played key roles in human and animal growth. Both human laron type dwarfism and sex linked dwarf chicken were caused by the mutation of GHR gene. In this study, we identified an endogenously expressed long non-coding natural antisense transcript, GHR-AS, which overlapped with the GHR mRNA (GHR-S) in a tail to tail manner. Spatial and temporal expression analyses in...
متن کاملTissue-Specific GHR Knockout Mice: Metabolic Phenotypes
In addition to its major role in the regulation of somatic growth, growth hormone (GH) signaling has profound effects on function of various tissues in the body. However, the cellular location where the GH signaling exerts its effect on metabolic homeostasis remains largely unknown. Here, we briefly review recent progress and insights from mice with GH receptor deletion specifically in adipocyt...
متن کاملDisulfide linkage of growth hormone (GH) receptors (GHR) reflects GH-induced GHR dimerization. Association of JAK2 with the GHR is enhanced by receptor dimerization.
The growth hormone (GH) receptor (GHR) binds GH in its extracellular domain and transduces activating signals via its cytoplasmic domain. Both GH-induced GHR dimerization and JAK2 tyrosine kinase activation are critical in initiation of GH signaling. We previously described a rapid GH-induced disulfide linkage of GHRs in human IM-9 cells. In this study, three GH-induced phenomena (GHR dimerizat...
متن کاملSpecific suppression of insulin sensitivity in growth hormone receptor gene-disrupted (GHR-KO) mice attenuates phenotypic features of slow aging
In addition to their extended lifespans, slow-aging growth hormone receptor/binding protein gene-disrupted (knockout) (GHR-KO) mice are hypoinsulinemic and highly sensitive to the action of insulin. It has been proposed that this insulin sensitivity is important for their longevity and increased healthspan. We tested whether this insulin sensitivity of the GHR-KO mouse is necessary for its reta...
متن کاملAbsence of NsiI Polymorphism in Growth Hormone Receptor (GHR) Gene in Indian Cattle Breeds
The objective of the present study was to investigate the polymorphism in 5′ non-coding region of growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene in Sahiwal (n = 53) and Hariana (n = 50) cattle using NsiI/PCR-RFLP assay. Amplification of DNA sample revealed 302bp product using specific primer pairs and digested by using NsiI restriction enzyme. All the screened animals were found monomorphic in nature for G...
