Sex-specific early growth hormone response genes in rat liver.
Pituitary GH-secretory profiles are sex dependent and regulate the sexually dimorphic expression of a large number of genes in the liver. The slow response of many sex-specific liver genes to changes in plasma GH status suggests that GH acts in the liver via both direct and indirect mechanisms organized in a hierarchical regulatory network. Presently, genome-wide liver transcription profiling w...
متن کاملSex-specific compensatory growth in food-deprived Nile tilapia.
Female Nile tilapia incubate fertilized eggs in their mouth until they are released as alevins. Consequently, the female may not eat during this period. Thus, it would be expected that female Nile tilapia are more adapted to recovering from fasting than males, which do not display this behavior. To test this hypothesis we conducted an experiment with two groups of fish consisting of 7 males and...
متن کاملSex differences in thrombosis in mice are mediated by sex-specific growth hormone secretion patterns.
Sex differences in thrombosis are well described, but their underlying mechanism(s) are not completely understood. Coagulation proteins are synthesized in the liver, and liver gene expression is sex specific and depends on sex differences in growth hormone (GH) secretion--males secrete GH in a pulsatile fashion, while females secrete GH continuously. Accordingly, we tested the hypothesis that s...
متن کاملIntrinsic sex differences in the early growth hormone responsiveness of sex-specific genes in mouse liver.
Sex differences in liver gene expression are dictated by sex differences in circulating GH profiles. Presently, the pituitary hormone dependence of mouse liver gene expression was investigated on a global scale to discover sex-specific early GH response genes that could contribute to sex-specific regulation of downstream GH targets and to ascertain whether intrinsic sex differences characterize...
متن کاملcriteria for including study of specific conditions
a survey was conducted of physicians in practice, to determine the criteria that would lead the study of a particular condition to be an important component of clerkship training in internal medicine. four such criteria were suggested: the prevalence of the condition in practice, the urgency with which it requires attention, the severity in terms of morbidity and mortality and the cost effectiv...
