Secretory pattern and regulatory mechanism of growth hormone in cattle

نویسنده

چکیده

The ultradian rhythm of growth hormone (GH) secretion has been known in several animal species for years and has recently been observed in cattle. Although the physiological significance of the rhythm is not yet fully understood, it appears essential for normal growth. In this review, previous studies concerning the GH secretory pattern in cattle, including its ultradian rhythm, are introduced and the regulatory mechanism is discussed on the basis of recent findings.

Association of TG-repeats in the 5’-flanking region of bovine growth hormone receptor (GHR) gene with milk production traits and somatic cell count in Holstein cattle

The growth hormone receptor (GHR) is a member of cytokine/hematopoietin family that mediates the biological actions of growth hormone (GH) on target tissues. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the association of TG-repeat polymorphisms in the 5’-flanking region of bovine GHR gene with milk production traits and somatic cell score (SCS) in Holstein cattle of Iran. The part of 5’...

The Influence of Growth Hormone Gene Polymorphism on Growth Rate of Young Cattle

Beef production is an important development area in animal breeding with meat quality being determined by both paratypic and genetic factors. In this regard evaluating genetic material for the presence of desirable allele combinations of genes associated with growth and development indicators, as well as meat qualities of animals have a certain scientific and practical significance. The aim of ...

The involvement of kisspeptin in centrally regulatory mechanism of neuropeptide Y on testosterone secretion in male Wistar rats

Introduction: Numerous studies have demonstrated that kisspeptin, a peptide from the KISS1 gene, plays an important role in regulating the secretion of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH). Also, there is some evidence suggesting that kisspeptin can interact with other neuropeptides for the control of the reproductive axis. In the present study, we have investigated the effect of central admin...

Secretory process regularity monitors neuroendocrine feedback and feedforward signaling strength in humans.

The present experiments examine the neuroregulatory hypothesis that the degree of sample-by-sample regularity of hormone output by an interlinked hypothalamopituitary target-organ system monitors the strength of feedback and/or feedforward signaling. To test this postulate and assess its generality, we implemented a total of nine thematically complementary perturbation experiments. In particula...
