Effects of Low-Dose Recombinant Human Growth Hormone on Bone Densities of Radius, Tibia and 4th Lumbar Vertebrae in Rabbits

Objective- To determine the effects of growth hormone (GH) therapy on bone density in controlled conditions in healthy adult rabbits. Design- Experimental in vivo study.  Animal- 20 healthy, adult New Zealand White rabbits. Procedures- The rabbits were divided into 2 groups; receiving Human GH (0.006 mg/kg/d) and controls; receiving placebo for 3 months. The density of radius and tibia was m...

A Comparison of Outcomes from IVF Cycles Stimulated with either Recombinant Luteinizing Hormone or Human Menopausal Gonadotropins in Subjects Treated with Long Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Agonist Protocols, a Retrospective Analysis.

Objective The objective of this study is to compare rates of pregnancy and IVF parameters in subjects who were stimulated with follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) plus either recombinant human luteinizing hormone (r-LH) or human menopausal gonadotropins (hMG), in long gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist IVF protocols. MaterialsAndMethods This is a cohort study of patients undergoing IV...

Using L-arabinose for Production of Human Growth Hormone in Escherichia coli, Studying the Processing of gIII::hGH Precursor

DNase I hypersensitive site II of the human growth hormone locus control region mediates an essential and distinct long-range enhancer function.

Locus control regions (LCRs) comprise sets of DNA elements capable of establishing autonomous chromatin domains that support robust and physiologically appropriate expression of target genes, often working over extensive distances. Human growth hormone (hGH-N) expression in the pituitary is under the regulation of a well characterized LCR containing four DNase I hypersensitive sites (HSs). The ...

A Q-learning Based Continuous Tuning of Fuzzy Wall Tracking

A simple easy to implement algorithm is proposed to address wall tracking task of an autonomous robot. The robot should navigate in unknown environments, find the nearest wall, and track it solely based on locally sensed data. The proposed method benefits from coupling fuzzy logic and Q-learning to meet requirements of autonomous navigations. Fuzzy if-then rules provide a reliable decision maki...
