Growth hormone receptor gene variant and three-dimensional mandibular morphology

Comparison of Expression of Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone and Its Receptor Splice Variant 1 in Different Stages of Endometriosis

Three-dimensional analysis of mandibular morphology in Otolemur.

Euclidean distance matrix analysis (EDMA) of three-dimensional data is used here to examine mandibular morphology between two species of galagos. Otolemur crassicaudatus consumes primarily exudates, while O. garnettii is more frugivorous. Acquisition of exudates involves either gouging or scraping tree bark, and may involve different forces at the mandible than incising fruits. Previous studies...

Human growth hormone gene and the highly homologous growth hormone variant gene display different splicing patterns.

Stably transfected cell lines containing the normal human growth hormone (hGH-N) and human growth hormone-variant (hGH-V) genes have been established in order to study the expression of these two highly homologous genes. Each gene was inserted into a bovine papillomavirus shuttle vector under the transcriptional control of the mouse metallothionein gene promoter and the resultant recombinants w...

Comprehending the three-dimensional mandibular morphology of facial asymmetry patients with mandibular prognathism

BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to elucidate the factors that cause facial asymmetry by comparing the characteristics of the mandibular morphology in patients with mandibular prognathism with or without facial asymmetry using three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT). METHODS We studied 28 mandibular prognathism patients whose menton deviated by ≥ 4 mm from the midline (FA group,...

تأثیر پلی مورفیسم های ژن های هورمون رشد growth hormone و گیرنده ژن هورمون رشد growth hormone receptor روی برخی صفات اقتصادی بز مرغز ایران

در این پژوهش به بررسی وجود پلی مورفیسم در ناحیه پروموتور و اگزون 10 ژن های gh و ghr و ارتباط آنها با صفات رشد در بزهای مرغز پرداخته شد. بدین منظور از سیاهرگ وداج تعداد 160 بز مرغز موجود در ایستگاه اصلاح نژاد استان کردستان خونگیری و dna نمونه ها با استفاده از کیت استخراج گردید. قطعه 391 جفت بازی از ژن gh و 361 جفت بازی از ژن ghr تکثیر شدند. از تفاوت چندشکلی فضایی تک رشته ها (sscp) و توالی یابی ب...
