Growth hormone (GH)/GH receptor expression and GH-mediated effects during early bovine embryogenesis.
Pituitary growth hormone (GH) stimulates postnatal growth and metabolism. The role of GH and its receptor (GHR) during prenatal development, however, is still controversial. As shown by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), bovine in vitro fertilization embryos synthesized the transcript of GHR from Day 2 of embryonic life onwards. Real time RT-PCR revealed that synthesis of...
متن کاملExpression of growth hormone gene during early development of Siberian sturgeon (Acipenser baerii)
The mRNA expression of growth hormone (GH) gene in early development stages of Siberian sturgeon was investigated using RT-PCR method. Samples were collected from unfertilized eggs up to 50 days post hatched (dph) larvae in 11 different times. Ribosomal protein L6 (RPL6) transcripts were used as the internal standard during quantification of GH mRNA expression. The results showed that the GH mR...
متن کاملRegulation of growth hormone (GH) gene expression and secretion during pregnancy and lactation in the rat: role of insulin-like growth factor-I, somatostatin, and GH-releasing hormone.
GH appears to play an important metabolic role during late pregnancy and in lactation maintenance. In this study, pregnant (days 8, 15, and 20 of gestation) and postpartum (days 3 and 8 postpartum, including lactating and nonlactating dams) Wistar rats were used to investigate pituitary GH gene expression and hormone secretion, and the potential alterations of the major signals regulating GH se...
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 کاملCentral administration of a growth hormone (GH) receptor mRNA antisense increases GH pulsatility and decreases hypothalamic somatostatin expression in rats.
To test the hypothesis of the involvement of centrally expressed rat growth hormone receptors (rGH-R) in the ultradian rhythmicity of pituitary GH secretion, adult male rats were submitted to a 60 hr intracerebroventricular infusion of an antisense (AS) oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) complementary to the sequence of rGH-R mRNA. Eight hour (10 A.M.-6 P.M.) GH secretory profiles, obtained from freely...
