Insulin-like growth factor I gene polymorphism associated with growth traits in beluga (Huso huso) fish
The aim of the present study was to detect polymorphism in Insulin like growth factor-I (IGF-I) gene of beluga (Huso huso) fish using PCR-SSCP technique and also investigation of its association with growth traits (condition factor, body length and weight). A total of 150 specimens of beluga were randomly selected and DNA was isolated from caudal fin using modified salting out method. Then two ...

متن کاملGrowth cartilage expression of growth hormone/insulin-like growth factor I axis in spontaneous and growth hormone induced catch-up growth.
INTRODUCTION Catch-up growth following the cessation of a growth inhibiting cause occurs in humans and animals. Although its underlying regulatory mechanisms are not well understood, current hypothesis confer an increasing importance to local factors intrinsic to the long bones' growth plate (GP). AIM The present study was designed to analyze the growth-hormone (GH)-insulin-like growth factor...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor I during growth in bulls.
In 10 bulls, changes in blood plasma concentrations of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF1) were studied during rearing and during the ensuing growth period. IGF1 continuously increased from 32 micrograms/l at the age of 15 d to 194 micrograms/l at the age of 307 d together with body weight. However, IGF1 was not related to daily rate of gain, which remained fairly constant during the growth per...
متن کاملInsulin-like growth factor I is essential for postnatal growth in response to growth hormone.
Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) is essential for cell growth and intrauterine development while both IGF-I and GH are required for postnatal growth. To explore the possibility of direct GH action on body growth, independent of IGF-I production, we have studied the effects of GH in an IGF-I-deficient mouse line created by the Cre/loxP system. The IGF-I null mice are born with 35% growth ret...
