Differential gene expression in porcine oviduct during the oestrous cycle.
The oviduct undergoes changes under the influence of steroid hormones during the oestrous cycle. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying oviductal regulation are not fully understood. The aim of the present study was to identify the gene expression profile of the porcine oviduct in different stages of the cycle using microarray technology. A systematic study was performed on animals at fou...
متن کاملThe Role of the Insulin-Like Growth Factors and Their Binding Proteins in Glucose Homeostasis
The insulin like growth factors (IGF-I and -II) are structurally and functionally related to insulin. While insulin is a key regulator of glucose homeostasis over the short term, emerging evidence suggests that the IGFs are involved in the longer term glucose homeostasis, possibly by modulating insulin sensitivity. Unlike insulin, the IGFs are present in most biological fluids as complexes with...
متن کاملSomatomedins/insulin-like growth factors, their receptors and binding proteins are present during mouse embryogenesis.
Somatomedins/insulin-like growth factors (Sm/IGFs) are considered to have important roles in regulating fetal growth; however, because of limited quantities of tissue, few studies have been performed on their effects on embryonic growth. To assess a potential role for these factors, we evaluated mouse embryonic tissues for the presence of Sm/IGF and insulin receptors and Sm/IGF-binding proteins...
متن کاملthe relationship between learners critical thinking ability and their performance in the reading sections of the tofel and ielts test
the study reflected in this thesis aims at finding out relationships between critical thinking (ct), and the reading sections of tofel and ielts tests. the study tries to find any relationships between the ct ability of students and their performance on reading tests of tofel and academic ielts. however, no research has ever been conducted to investigate the relationship between ct and the read...
15 صفحه اولSerum insulin-like growth factors and insulin-like growth factor-binding proteins: clinical implications.
The last decade has been characterized by a major investigative thrust into the physiology of two unique but ubiquitous peptides, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I and IGF-II. The regulatory systems that control the tissue bioactivity of the IGFs have been delineated, and subcellular signaling mechanisms have been clarified. Clearly, both tissue and circulating growth factor concentrations are...
