The Growth Hormone Receptor: Mechanism of Receptor Activation, Cell Signaling, and Physiological Aspects

The Growth Hormone Receptor: Mechanism of Receptor Activation, Cell Signaling, and Physiological Aspects

The growth hormone receptor (GHR), although most well known for regulating growth, has many other important biological functions including regulating metabolism and controlling physiological processes related to the hepatobiliary, cardiovascular, renal, gastrointestinal, and reproductive systems. In addition, growth hormone signaling is an important regulator of aging and plays a significant ro...

Negative regulation of growth hormone receptor signaling.

GH has been of significant scientific interest for decades because of its capacity to dramatically change physiological growth parameters. Furthermore, GH interacts with a range of other hormonal pathways and is an established pharmacological agent for which novel therapeutical applications can be foreseen. It is easy to see the requirement for a number of postreceptor mechanisms to regulate an...

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...

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

The Growth Hormone Secretagogue Receptor: Its Intracellular Signaling and Regulation

The growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR), also known as the ghrelin receptor, is involved in mediating a wide variety of biological effects of ghrelin, including: stimulation of growth hormone release, increase of food intake and body weight, modulation of glucose and lipid metabolism, regulation of gastrointestinal motility and secretion, protection of neuronal and cardiovascular cells,...
