In two cohorts of short children treated with growth hormone, we found that an isoform of the growth hormone receptor gene that lacks exon 3 (d3-GHR) was associated with 1.7 to 2 times more growth ...
The constitutively dimeric growth hormone receptor, a 70-kDa, class I cytokine receptor, is expressed on multiple tissues, especially liver, cartilage, muscle, fat, and kidney tissue ().The growth ...
The growth hormone receptor gene plays a major role in controlling the body’s response to growth hormone, helping to activate processes that lead to growth. To study the gene’s evolutionary history, ...
Ghrelin stimulation of growth hormone release and appetite is mediated through the growth hormone secretagogue receptor. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 2004; 101 : 4679–4684.
Growth hormones: When growth hormone binds to its receptor, shown here (top), it activates a number of cellular pathways involved in growth and metabolism.
The peak growth hormone responses after an infusion of arginine (0.5 g per kilogram) and insulin-induced hypoglycemia were 6.0 and 5.7 ng per milliliter, respectively (normal value, >7.0 for each ...
A new study delves into the evolution and function of the human growth hormone receptor gene, and asks what forces in humanity’s past may have driven changes to this vital piece of DNA. The research ...
